One Way to Get Rich: Write a Bestseller

You can try to write a bestseller.  Look at the bestseller's list from time to time.  Doing so will get you ideas.  What is selling?  What authors have a cult following?  What is an evergreen topic that readers may want or need to read about for years? 

What can you write that could be mandatory reading for a business or other organization?  What really big phenomena can you tap into? Star Wars? Test prep guides? Healthy eating? Geneology? Conspiracy theories and preparedness?  Use your imagination and brainstorm.

Even if your book or eBook doesn't sell, you probably wouldn't go broke.  You will certainly learn lessons about writing and marketing.  If you fail, try again. 

Look at the sales rankings of books you find in search.  This tells you where there is demand. What is the copy of the book's description like? Is the cover attractive?  What do the title and subtitle say?  Use Google's keyword research tool to find profitable topics and keywords. 

Just a note, my paperback books have outsold my kindle books by 5 to 1.

If you don't feel you are a good enough writer, read a little book called Elements of Style.  I bet you will find Elements of Style very helpful.  

If you come across a template for a useful how-to, use it.  Using a template (or a model) will save you a lot of time and make your eBook easier for the readers to follow.  Copy the style of a book you really like.

Don't solicit advice about the writing business from an idiot who can't understand you are not writing a paper to please some teacher.  Some people may try to steal your ideas, too.
