Dressing It Up
Presentation of Your PDF File

Why should you consider presentation of your pdf?

You can offer a simple link to download if you want; but you should also present your ebook; make it valuable in the eyes of the potential buyer.

One way to do this is to offer detailed download instructions and a link to Adobe Reader in case they don’t have it preinstalled.

This builds on your credibility, making it easy for them to download and will cut down on emails to you for support.

Yes, you do have to offer support of some kind when you offer ebooks or other downloads, just as you do for hardgoods!

You can use the text offered here if you like but I recommend you edit the text just a little to bring your personality into the page:



Just copy and paste the above text from the text box into a text block on your download page; edit as desired.

Another thing to consider is how will they contact you if they have problems?

You should never put your email online, but you can offer a contact form, or a special "support" form on your download page for those who are having problems. Again, this builds credibility and professionalism; giving you an edge over the competition!
