How To Write An eCourse And Make Money With It

How To Write An eCourse And Make Money With It
An ecourse is a series of messages you deliver by email.
You send this out over a period of time via an
autoresponder to people who subscribe to receive it. Many
people use these to build a mailing list of their own and
to make money over a period of time. In this article let's
look at the basics of creating an ecourse and using it to
make money.

1. First of all you need to decide on the theme of your
ecourse. What are you going to write about and what is your
goal with this course.

2. Create a title that let's people know what your ecourse
is about. For example if you are going to teach people how
to quickly burn calories your title might be "10 Ways To
Quickly Burn Calories".

3. Start to write the course. This may take some research
on your part, or you may already have existing content to
use. If you write articles go back and look at those.

You may be able to quickly repackage those into your course
with very little effort. You can also get ideas from
private label right programs such as InfoGoRound.com and
PLRWholesaler.com. Of course article directories such as
EzineArticles.com and IdeaMarketers.com have thousands of
articles you can look at for ideas too!

4. Set a goal of creating an ecourse of 5-10 messages. So
you will need 5-10 articles for the theme of your email
messages. If you use another person's work make sure you
have permission to do so.

5. You can include a resource box at the end of each
article. It should lead to a sales page for a product you
sell. This can be an affiliate program or even your own
products if you have them.

If you use another person's article you need to give them
credit in the bio box. One idea is to look for article that
are written by writers who have an affiliate program of
their own.

Then you can join their affiliate program and change the
website url in the bio box to your affiliate website. This
way you get credit for making the sale when your subscriber
buys something.

6. Once you have your ecourse written you will need to load
it into an autoresponder. Aweber and GetResponse are two of
the most popular and reliable companies to use.

You want each message to look the same so be sure and come
up with an intro to each one. Then you can just paste in
the article and go onto the next one.

7. You will now have an autoresponder email you can
promote. You should consider creating a landing page and
putting a sign up form on it. Now you can promote either
your landing page or autoresponder email address to get
subscribers.

Promoting your ecourse is just like promoting any product
online. You have to work at it and use any method you can,.
Try and find as many free or nearly free methods to do this
including article marketing, forums, classified ads,
payperclick, blogs and so on.

Depending on your effort you can build a list of thousands
of people who are reading your ecourse at any time. This
will allow you to contact these people in the future to
sell backend product as well.

Hopefully this short article has given you some ideas on
how to write and ecourse and make money with it. Once you
get the hang of doing this you can do it over and over for
virtually any product in any niche and make a every good
income from it.
