Re: Outsourcing Product and Marketing Material Development
Hey Almin,
If you're looking for a service that offers all that stuff, I think you'll be disappointed. I'm not personally aware of any such service, but if there is, I'd advise against using it simply because they don't specialise in anything.
I just finished reading "The Dip" by Seth Godin (founder of Squidoo) and he asked whether a company should hire a student who got (something like) 2 A's, 2 B+'s, and a B, or a student who got an A+ and 4 C's. If the second student got the A+ in a class that is relevant to the job, then the second student would be a better choice. The lesson here is that you should hire, or outsource, each part of your product creation to specialists.
Copywriting, for example, is something you shouldn't leave to "some guy".
For a couple thousand bucks, you can get a complete minisite done + a well written ebook between 40-60 pages long. Everything else, especially the salesletter, will cost you loads more.
That said, if you're doing something like ContentGrab.com, a good solution would be just to keep hiring (and firing) outsourced talent until you assemble a good team. A Warrior by the name of Kate Anderson is behind that site...go PM her or something...I'm sure she'd be happy to answer some of your questions.
