Official Get Rich Guide to Information Marketing - Build a Million Dollar Business Within 12 Months, 2nd Edition

First, full disclosure: I am mentioned in the book.

Now, that having been said, anyone who has ever thought about starting a business where the primary product is information (ie, you publish a manual, you do webinars for profit, you conduct seminars, etc) should start with this book. You CAN build a million dollar business. It took me 24, not 12 months, but I was doing it on a part time basis. Don't be fooled. This is work. None of that "sitting home in your underwear opening envelopes filled with checks stuff."

But... if you are going to do it, definitely invest in this book first. It is a step by step guide to the work required to build your business. There is no need to reinvent the wheel (as many early creators of information products had to do.) There are many successful info-marketers mentioned in the book. Track them down and ask them questions. You may find one or more folks already in your niche area. That may mean that there is actually a market for the type of information you are going to sell.

Bottom line is that starting a new business from scratch is NOT for everybody. But if you are THINKING about starting an info marketing business you'd be a fool to not invest the $15.00 or so in this book first. The very best at it today show you how in this book. So you need to find and follow a bright shining star. Not to copy outright what they have done but to learn from their successes and messes.

I expected a book light on content and mostly an up-sell, as most other similar books are. And I wouldn't have been disappointed by that as long as it included a few gems for such a small price. However, I was pleasantly surprised the book was full of great content that other information products that cost between $700 and $1500 for similar content.

The book begins with an overview of information marketing including the benefits and different business models. Throughout the book, there are numerous stories of other business owners that are great examples and inspiration.
The book provides five different detailed models that the reader can follow to launch his or her own business. These models begin with low cost and conclude with higher investment models. Included are tele-seminars, joint ventures,in person seminars and more.

This is great information I will use in my business or with my clients. I highly recommend this book for those just starting out because it gives you an easy model to follow and also for those already in the business because it is laid out well and full of helpful tips.
