The idea: make it interactive with an AI-powered app
Monetizing your e-book by creating an AI-powered app is a smart strategy. By leveraging generative AI, you can allow users to interact with your content in a new and engaging way. Imagine an app where users can ask specific questions related to your e-book, and the AI provides accurate answers sourced directly from the content.
This enhances user experience and adds significant value to your original work. For instance, if your e-book is about digital marketing, users can inquire about specific strategies, and the app will offer tailored advice based on your insights.
Subscribers will appreciate the interactive and accessible wealth of knowledge. This opens up a fresh revenue stream while keeping readers continuously engaged.
