There are so many different “kinds” of small reports that you can write and when you mix-n-match them with different “topics”, you can create dozens upon dozens of highly desirable resources to sell online. This short report will examine twenty-seven different “kinds” of small reports (along with examples) that you can create.  Use this list to brainstorm ideas for your next small report (and all those to follow!)…
