Casual Articles - What is an eBook?
How to do brochures, throw parties, talk to reporters and write press releases? Or, are we teaching them what PR’s fundamental premise says we should be teaching them?In so many words, whether they go to work for a business, non-profit, government agency or association, students will soon discover that people act on their own perception of the facts before them, which leads to predictable behaviors about which something can be done. When we create, change or reinforce that opinion by reaching, persuading and moving-to-desired-action the very people whose behaviors affect the organization the most, the public relations mission is usually accomplished.Which is why, after public relations students digest THAT basic touchstone, they should be made aware that,
You’ve decided to write an ebook. Yes, write, not copy or steal. Write your own ebook. You know what you’ll write about. Got your topic, found the points you want to make. But now comes the first roadblock. How do I organize all this stuff? There’s no one right way.
The best thing for you to do is sit down, imagine if you were a newbie to this subject, then write about the steps it would take for you to gain this knowledge.
Taken from that point of view, you can then write the ebook for the reader and not to show off YOU. The reader is there for the information, not to read about you. Trust me, keep yourself out of the ebook and it’ll be more interesting. The reader’s there for one thing.

What is an ebook?
It’s just a fancy word, or better put, a slang word, for electronic book. The same goes for email, if you’re looking for some kind of connection elsewhere. An ebook is a great thing, a book you can read onscreen. If you’ve got a laptop, then great for you!
For those of us that still love desktops, then we read onscreen while eating and cutting our fingernails and watching the news and writing down our grocery list.
So don’t fantasize about the ebook phenom, it’s a phase. Like Jordache jeans or American Idol or beta video. So now that you know what an ebook is, the next question is simply – what is it good for?
What is an ebook good for?
The endless ways to use an ebook can be frustrating when you’re new because you want leverage, you want the facts. What is it good for? How can an ebook have more advantages than a regular book?
Since you’re new, you don’t know the value of an ebook. The ebook is a phenom because it balances the ground for common folks. Now, through an ebook, you can share, publish, and connect your mind with anyone around the world.

* No need to worry about printing and publishing costs.
You write your ebook, edit it best as you can, and publish it. Trust me, that’s a scenario because it won’t be so easy when you start.
You’ll start off thinking long and hard. Setting dates and imagining what the cover will look like. How will I get people to buy this book? And after you brush you teeth and get ready for bed, you lay down and look at the ceiling.
What am I going to write about anyway. . .why write an ebook?
The question that drives us mad in the middle of the night. Too tired to go pee, but too awake to go back to sleep. What do I do? This is the same dilemma with your current problem.
What should I write about?
The answer’s not going to help you, you can write about ANY and EVERYTHING.
There’s millions of people online searching for content and every day, thousands more join in the search for the number one product online.
Information
People crave information, so give it to them. Come on, don’t give me that same lame excuse; I don’t know anything. There’s something buried in your mind, dozens of ideas waiting to be released on paper.
What are you waiting on -- what should I write about in my ebook? Hmmm, let’s see. I don’t know you, you don’t know me. Why trust me?
Well, am I all that? Certainly not, just someone that spent more time than you. And that’s how you should think about ebooks.
There are folks who’ve spent years doing them, of course they’ve got better at it. But the key thing is here that you offer something they don’t have. Yes, your brain.
In that beautiful mass of living tissue lies the secrets and knowledge of your life. And don’t go looking for those big things, it’s little things that will push you out into the web world.
* Know a better way to manage money for clubbing on the weekend?
* Found a better way to save money by using paper bags for lunch during the workweek?
* Found a way to club during the week and use the weekend for your loved ones?
* Know how to set-up a consulting business and hold minutes online for free?
All these things are small, but help people. That’s the only criteria you should be thinking about.
What do I know that can help people? People, not just your neighbors. Despite what you think, we’re more alike than different. So stop playing around so much and get your topic idea.

I love inventors. I find it fascinating how they come up with such unique ideas. Any great invention needs to have at its marketing root, the desire and ability to solve someone’s problem, heal a pain, or satisfy some unmet need. This is where successful inventions must begin. Dave Guindon is just such an inventor. He is trained as an engineer (he’s still working on his Masters of Electrical Engineering in fact).He’s ideally suited to examine things and take them apart to see what makes them (literally) tick. Such is the case with one of his latest inventions. You see, Dave is an eBay nut. When he first got online about five years ago, he gravitated to eBay as a neat place where he could make some extra money for his university tuition. He found that he learned the ropes quickly, and be

Each of us is ultimately responsible for our own actions. Although in today’s business world, I imagine many skeptics would take exception to that statement because there is evidence that people are not held accountable for their actions, even when they are unethical. And even more disturbing, some are even rewarded for unethical actions. Each of us makes a choice to act ethically or to act unethically.It is essential that we know what is ethical and what is unethical. But, more challenging and difficult than knowing what is ethical, is knowing what is right and then doing what is right. Always doing the right thing is required for long-term success in your business and personal lives. So what advice and guidance are available to check if the action is right before implementing a

If you own a small business there is no doubt you have been approached by advertising salesmen and women peddling ads in their media outlets. And it is amazing to me how many tell us that we should not expect results right away? Why not, that is what we are paying you for you dummy. What in the World are you selling; you show me charts, graphs and supposedly empirical proof of why your medium is where I should spend my money then ask for the check and tell me not to expect results right away? Go die scum!The truth is that if their venue is truly that great then in fact you should see results right away. Look before I get into an argument with Marketing Consultants who write books and sell seminars and maybe even make kick backs from advertising referrals or before I am condemned by adve

And by helping yourself, you realize your outline’s done. Now you sit down and breathe a sigh of relief. How do I write this ebook from scratch?
How to write your ebook
If you can talk, you can write an ebook. I didn’t say a good ebook, but you can finish one. The difference is that ebooks sell more from appropriateness and how important is the information in your ebook. This is what readers will look for and ask, what is it worth?
The first thing you should know is that information is different than writing a book, an essay, or other “scholarly” ways of writing. People want info, that’s it.
No introductions, no explaining about the symbols or how what you said goes the same for a drywall presentation. Skip all that stuff!
You got an outline, well my friend, just sit down and write the ebook. Remember it doesn’t have to be poetic or mind-boggling, it must deliver the information. If it does that, then you’re ok.
But to be safe, let a few of your friends read it before you publish it.
Ways to publish your ebook
By the time you read this, there’s going to be many formats and ways to publish. But for right now, to keep it simple, you should focus on one of two ways, pdf or exe. For more information about this information, read my other article (PDF OR EXE?) because it goes in-depth about this decision and will save you hours of heartache and hundreds of dollars on software and low-budget ebooks.
