Looking for material that you can use for your e-books and other information products? Looking for a quality book – one you don’t have to write – that you can sell outright and keep all the profits?
Check out the public domain. “Public domain” is an umbrella term for printed works with content that was never copyrighted… or that was copyrighted but the copyright expired.
There are countless ways to find content in the public domain. And when you find something that suits your needs, you don’t have to pay the author a cent.
Do a quick Google search for “books public domain,” and you’ll find tons of possibilities. And there are several online directories of titles that have fallen out of copyright.
There is also an “analog” method. And this one can be a lot of fun, because it allows you to thumb through the material. What you do is rummage through used bookstores for old books in your niche. Books published prior to 1963 that have not had their copyrights renewed are fair game. (Check the US Copyright Office records before you use them, though – www.copyright.gov/records/ – to be sure. This goes for any material you find online too.)
Want to know more about how to take advantage of this under-the-radar resource for making money online? You can get all the details in the program ETR designed especially for new entrepreneurs. You’ll learn how three “pros” (you’ve seen them in the pages of this newsletter) made $500K+ by repurposing old books into new products.
