Here Are Five Good Reasons Why Selling Information
Is One of the Most Profitable Things You Can Do Online…

#1: You Can Work from Anywhere

The first big advantage of creating and selling information products is that you can work from anywhere. This is the Ultimate Freedom Business for anyone that wants to break away from dreaded 9 to 5 lifestyle. You don’t need to rent an office or sign a lease for an expensive storefront because you can do everything from your PC or laptop.

It doesn’t matter if you want to run this as your own Kitchen Table Business (KTB), sit by the pool in your favorite lounge chair, or hit the open road and work while you travel. Your only restriction is you need to have Internet access at least some of the time.

#2: You Have No Inventory or Shipping

Some business models require storage space and high shipping and handling costs. If you are creating your own physical products you need to have inventory, including both raw materials and completed products. Unless you have a huge home with enough space to dedicate to your business or enough disposable income to rent a warehouse, the need for storage space can deter people from starting a business. Even if you are selling other peoples products, you still need to deal with moving the product from the manufactorer to your customer. Often this can be handled by the maker of the product, but if anything breaks down in that chain, very quickly you can have angry customers that want what they paid for.

One of the great thing about information products is that the inventory is a digital file that can be stored online. Even better, there is no shipping, the customer gets instant access once payment is made. This means that it frees you up to be doing other things and reduces your customer support systems.

#3: You Make It Once And Sell It Many Times

If you sell a physical product, then you must create it many times to be able to sell it. In addition to the storage required to keep raw materials and finished products on hand, there is also the question of labor.

Once you start putting employees on payrol, things become a lot more complex. Scheduling people during upticks in orders and then cutting the numbers back if sale figures drop. It’s not easy to deal with and requires a lot more cash to get started and maintain the business.

The amount of work required to sell a physical product can be prohibitive, but that’s not the case with information products. If you create an information product, you are only required to do the work to create it once. After you put it in your online shop, you can sell it as many times as you like.

#4: Little to No Overhead Costs

One of the best things about an Information Products business is the low risk.

As we have already mentioned, you do not need a dedicated office space to create information products. You don’t need to rent a retail storefront to sell your products either. You don’t need to buy expensive inventory or raw materials. With such a low barrier to entry, anybody can earn extra money – or even replace their existing income – by creating and selling these products.

#5: Very Low Start-Up Costs

Finally, one of the best things about creating and selling information products is the low cost to get started. Most people already own a PC or laptop and have Internet access. There are some great tools you can use as your information empire grows, but that is not needed to get started.
