I have written a couple of tutorials on subjects I don't see on the Internet or anywhere really and am wondering what you guys think I might do with it.
The first tutorial is about how to get started freelancing in the print market. I thought of putting it either on my website or one of my blogs so people can access it for free but then I thought maybe I should try to sell it in some form. I have given away a much-scaled down version of it dozens of times to people who have asked. In fact, I took that version and expanded on it to get what I have now.
Right now it is a 3,000 word document broken down into 10 smaller (5 short paragraphs or so) segments or steps.
Just wondering what you great business-minded writers might think.
I also have a tutorial on maintaining and styling biracial hair (written for Caucasian parents) that I have the same question about.
Both of these are on topics that I do not see on the Internet much or at all so I am wondering if there is a market (however small it may be) for this information from someone who has learned from experience.
Should I try to market this information? If so, how? I am a terrible salesperson but I do think this is information that some people want and need.
Suggestions please!!!!
