Software for Reports
Hello everyone!
I'm a newbie! I was introduced to affiliate marketing from another SSWT member, then the 30DC and now I'm here! Great stuff by the way.
I have a website up that I'm learning the ropes on: http://www.nauticalhomedecoritems.com
I'm learning the basics of posting, etc. on this site.
I'm interested in writing a report or short e-book (not sure how many pages qualify as a report vs. e-book). This report is not associated with the website listed above.
Is special software necessary to write and submit reports for affiliates? With my limited knowledge, I think that I would like to market the report myself and also submit it to clickbank for affiliates. I appreciate your input on this topic.
Thanks,
Rachelle:confused:

Most reports and ebooks are in .pdf format. You can create them in Word 2007 and use the .pdf creator (it's an addon). Or you can use the .pdf creator/editor in Open Office's "Write". It's free software. I like the latter because you can edit, add bookmarks, etc.

Thanks for that info. No special software- no extra expense, that's great news!

Rachelle,
If you don't have Office 2007 but you do have Office 2003 as I do, here is a link with instructions on how to create pdf's using Word and Google Docs: http://www.lytebyte.com/2007/07/12/f...g-google-docs/. Works for me!
Take care, Chris

Welcome Rachelle :)
One small investment you might consider is Write That Report by Jonathan Leger. It's 7 bucks, and it was the one thing that really got me over the final hurdle of writing and selling reports (finally!).
I use http://www.openoffice.org software (free download). You write a document in the writer program, then when you are ready to turn it into a PDF file you simply go to File > Export as PDF. It will convert your document into a PDF file, which is the format for reports & ebooks.
That's all there is to it!
