What is the public domain? Public domain refers to the
realm of knowledge that is freely accessible to the public.
This can be books, music, art, are inventions. Once a
copyright expires, the work becomes public domain. At that
point, anyone is free to have, and use, the work for their
own purposes. Public domain can be a tremendous resources
of material for information product creation.
One easy way to make money with books you download from
public domain is by selling them for use on PDAs and iPods.
More and more people want to have books available to listen
to on their PDAs and iPods. It makes commuting easier, it
helps while standing in long lines, and it's simply fun to
always have a book available to enjoy any where you happen
to be. It is so incredibly easy to profit from public
domain in this manner because the format most books are
downloaded in is .txt. This is the same file type required
for use in PDAs and iPods, so you do not need to convert
the documents before selling them. This can be so much
quicker and easier than creating a typical ebook in a
format such as pdf.
Another great way to profit from public domain books is
by creating audio ebooks. You can read public domain
books out loud, recording them into your computer, and then
convert the files to MP3. We all know how popular audio
books are, and how popular downloading audio is, so put the
two together and you have an unlimited audience of potential
buyers. Think of how many high-school and college students
had rather listen to the great classics than to have to read
them. If it worked for Cliff's Notes it can certainly work
for you!
You can start by selling only one book, or a few books in
a category, and then gradually build your Web site into a
large directories of PDA friendly books and audio ebooks.
If you do not want to build a Web site, you could sell these
resources on ebay. Or you could always outsource having
your Web site built very cheaply. If the idea of selling
audio ebooks appeals to you, but the idea of reading them
out loud it does not, you could also very cheaply outsource
that task.
I do have to be honest here, this fabulous idea actually
came from the great marketing minds of Alex Mandossian and
Armand Morin. They discussed this very same idea in detail
during the Big Seminar 7 preview teleconference call. They
also discussed several other ideas that all could make tons
of money, but this particular idea stood out to me as being
so easy to implement and make money with very quickly.
There is a huge market out there, so I encourage us all to
take immediate action, and start profiting from this today.
