Many of you here wealthy affiliates are experts in lots of fields. You may have thought about product creation but have no idea how to go about it. Some of you will a tried to create a course and you get so bogged down in the content that the project collapses under its own weight. I feel for you I been there.

OUTLINE: Go to Amazon Books and search for the top-selling books. Look for a book where you scroll over the image (on the left) and says "Look Inside". Go inside and grab the Table of Contents. That is your outline. Don't like it? Search another book. Top tip here - go to the dummy books.Copywriting for dummies, dieting for dummies.

WRITE THE SALES PAGE

Write the sales page using your new table of contents. You may be wondering why you should write the sales page 1st. The answer is stopped you rambling on and adding content you don't need. It is not from yourselves page don't do it

CREATE YOUR NOTES: Using your new table of contents.

Open up your word processor. Write as much as you can on each of the items in the table of contents. Don't worry about writing a book. Just write everything that comes to mind.

Use an audio recorder and speak about each item. A good free tool here is audacity

ORGANIZE YOUR NOTES: Edit, organize and prepare your notes, to do a presentation.

CREATE A PRESENTATION: Use any free tool to create your slides. PowerPoint is good and you can use the PowerPoint slides in OpenOffice which is free

RECORD YOUR PRESENTATION: Use a free screen capture tool to record your video presentation. Make sure the audio is good.

CREATE YOUR VIDEOS: Break it down into sections that correspond with your table of contents.

CREATE YOUR AUDIOBOOK: Extract the audio from the video

If you use a Mac open Quicktime and File...Export As...Audio Only

If you use Windows use a free tool like VLC player. File...Convert.

Edit out any phrases from the video that don't work for audio like "If you look at this slide".

CREATE YOUR ebook: Use a free tool to transcribe your audio to text. Use your favorite word processor to edit the transcription.

CREATE YOUR COVER: Search for ebook covers. Use a free tool to create the cover.

REMEMBER VALUE, VALUE, VALUE, VALUE, VALUE. GIVE VALUE and then get monies. You now have a video, audiobook, and ebook course. Enjoy

Are there better ways to record your video and audio and write your ebook? Absolutely, but it will take a lot more time and resources. Is this a quick way to put a low-ticket course together and give value?

This is a quick way to put together a free course which you can use as an unique optin gift or seven dollar product that will lead to upsales and downsales
