Word Program
You will need a Word Program to start creating your own Information Product (E-Book). If you are Microsoft user like me, you should find the Microsoft Word program readily installed within your computer’s system.
PDF Converter Program
Once you have finished creating your own Information Product and proof-read it for the last time, you will need a program that can convert your Word document into PDF format.
That way, your product cannot be altered, add, removed, edited, and its contents remain intact and just the way the document was before you converted it.
You can also disable the copying function to prevent convenient content theft copying.
I am currently using the PDF converter, which is Wondershare PDF Editor , to convert my Word documents into PDF products.
Alternatively, you can PDF converter services such as OpenOffice.
Attention:
Contrary to popular recommendations, I DON’T endorse using PDF995 to convert your Word documents.
This is because you will learn that the links within your document would not be clickable, rendering your product useless for back-end income from the same reader / customer.
Paint Program (optional)
While this is optional, you will probably need a Paint Program to create your Word document’s cover and maybe other parts of your product where images and illustrations might be needed.
I use Adobe Photoshop program to create my own covers (see the first page of this E-Book for example).
The topic on creating your own cover will be covered in detail later.
Affiliate Programs You Join
You have to join at least a few quality affiliate programs so that you can recommend them to your customers in your paid Info Product in order to enable back end income.
The topic on joining affiliate programs will be covered in detail later.
