The reports are anywhere from a few to</p><p>30 or so pages in length.</p><p> </p><p>If you have the know-how, you can write them yourself or hire a</p><p>writing service to do it for you. There is very little work</p><p>involved in creating them but they are versatile tools for</p><p>building an online business.</p><p> </p><p>One popular subject for <span>special reports</span> is how-tos. They direct a</p><p>reader, step by step, how to do something.</p><p> </p><p>If you are knowledgeable with computer software and hardware, that</p><p>is a perfect niche for <strong>special reports</strong> on your website. People are</p><p>always having trouble figuring out their computers and you could</p><p>help.</p><p> </p><h3>Marketing special reports</h3><p> </p><p>There are options for marketing your <em>special reports</em>. If you are</p><p>trying to build a business list of customers, use these <span>special</span></p><p><span>reports</span> as a freebie when any visitor signs up to be a part of</p><p>your email mailing list.</p><p> </p><p>For this type of promotion, use a shorter report like a five page</p><p>report on how to navigate problems with Windows Vista (if your</p><p>website has a computer niche).</p><p> </p><p>You can create a five-part course and use the first part as the</p><p>free promotion. It is your hook. Once they sign up for the</p><p>mailing list, you can grant them access to the other installments</p><p>through emails that also advertise your website products. Signing</p><p>up for a business newsletter subscription can also be the reason</p><p>to gift free <strong>special reports</strong>.</p><p> </p><h4>Making money with special reports</h4><p> </p><p>All of your <em>special reports</em> don’t have to go towards list</p><p>building. Besides your other products or services, you can sell</p><p><span>special reports</span> on your website. Many reports sell for between $5</p><p>and $20 a piece, but if you offer very valuable information, you</p><p>can command a higher price. Sell single reports or create various</p><p>courses to interest your customers.</p><p> </p><p>People love to learn about <a title="If making money in your business isn’t EASY, you ain’t doing it right…" href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/timothyeller/blog/if-making-money-in-your-business-isn%E2%80%99t-easy-you-ain%E2%80%99t-doing-it-right%E2%80%A6/?id=timothyeller" target="_blank">money-making opportunities</a>.

As you build</p><p>your library and your lists, alternate the free promotional</p><p>reports and continue to sell your entire library, creating</p><p>combination offers such as Buy Two, Get One Free.</p><p> </p><p>While your <strong><a href="http://socialmediabar.com/usingspecialreports" title="" target="_blank">special reports</a></strong> are building your contact list, they</p><p>are also making you money.
