I was watching TV a few nights ago when I received a phone call from a friend. Lately, it seems, a lot of my friends are interested in making money online. For most, it’s a way to earn some extra cash to help make ends meet. For others, it’s a desire to eventually quit their jobs. The friend who called me had some news to share. He had made his first sale. I wasn’t surprised. We had spoken at a party the previous weekend and I shared with him a simple strategy for making some quick money on the Internet. It revolved around publishing a short eBook (about 40 pages) compiled from public domain materials and then buying some inexpensive advertising to promote the product. It worked, as planned.

There are three things you need to understand if you want to make money in this business:

The first is that if you sell what people are already interested in and buying, the odds of making money quickly go up dramatically. In other words, give people what they’re looking for. It doesn’t matter if you’re not personally interested in the subject.

The second factor is advertising. You need to tell people that your product exists. There’s no way you can make money on the Internet unless you can get the word out about what you’re trying to sell. That makes sense, right?

The third and final factor is getting people to buy what you’re selling. My simple formula for this is to tell them what you’ve got, tell them what it will do for them, and then tell them how to buy what you’re selling. Wash, rinse, repeat. That’s one approach to quickly making money on the Internet.
