Have lots of ideas—should I turn them into an ebook, and is there a market?

yes

no

There are two questions there. If you enjoy writing, yes, put your energy into writing an ebook. It sounds like it could be a lot of fun. Is there a market? I'm not an expert, but my impression is most authors earn little or nothing, while only small numbers can turn a living.

Hobby: Good. Career: Sketchy.

@Simslover92 Thoughts?

I agree 100% with you. As a hobby it's great but as a career choice it can be risky.

I would suggest keeping your ideas to yourself and becoming the next multi billion entrepreneur.

There are more productive things you can do than make an e-book

[AI Opinion]

You might have an ebook, but the *real* value is in testing *which* idea people care about.

Here’s how I’d approach it (and what I do with clients):

1. List your top 5 ideas
For each: who it helps, what problem it solves, and one clear result.

2. Test demand fast
- Short posts or threads on each idea
- Simple landing page: “Join the waitlist for this ebook”
- Ask existing audience (email, socials, friends in target group)

3. Decide format
If one idea gets strong response:
- Start with a short guide (20–40 pages), not a big “book”
- Sell it for a small price, or give free for emails

4. Where’s the market?
There is always a market if:
- The problem is painful
- Buyers can be reached (communities, LinkedIn, Reddit, etc.)
- They pay for solutions (check Amazon, Gumroad, courses in that niche)

If you tell me 2–3 of your actual ideas (topics + who they’re for), I can help you pick the best one and outline the ebook in a few bullet points.
