How To Make Money With Private Label Rights (PLR)

Hey Peeps,

  So today I wanted to write about making money using PLR products because
a lot of Internet Marketers use this technique and do quite well with it.

  Step 1:  Get some PLR products.

  There’s a heck of a lot of PLR membership sites out there that sell all kinds of
PLR products so you need to get your hands on some.  If you happen to be
reading this post before July 20th, there’s a slight chance that one of the 377
copies of MarketingRush2 packages are still available.  You should hurry up
and check to see if one’s left if you are into this sort of thing.

  MarketingRush2 is put on by Chris Elliot and he does a bang up job with it.
Last year he sold out all 377 memberships in only 9 days.  That gives you an
idea of what people think of Chris’s work.

  What I personally like best with the MarketingRush2 stuff, is that first of all
the products are awesome.  They aren’t just thrown together.  This year Chris
has 3 highly researched, feature robust software applications as well as 7 more
eBooks totalling over 1200 pages of awesome original content.

  Secondly what I like, is that with this package is that each product does have
a design, but it’s simple and clean.  It’s also ‘very’ easy to redesign these
package to give it a look that’s completely unique to you!  Which leads to
Step 2.

  So get your first step take care of.  Get some PLR.

  Step 2.  Get Your Packages Redesigned and Set Up ‘One At
                  A Time’.

  A lot of people never really think to take this step but with so many others
owning the exact same packages as you, it’s a great way to really make your
own copy stand out and look completely original.

  There’s a reason why I say to get them done one at a time.  First of all you’ll
obviously save money getting one graphic design done instead of 5 - 10 at one
time.  Who can honestly afford that much anyways?  Also, if you like the work
your designer does, then you can continue with the next one and tell him you
have more work for him.  It’s possible to strike a deal if you have several sites
you want designed.

  There’s a few good places to get relatively cheap design work done.  Here’s
my 3 favorites.

  Step 3:  Get Your Packages Uploaded and Connected for Sales…Yes,
                  ‘One At A Time.’

    So now that you have a new website with a new look.  You can apply that look
to all your graphics and all your ebook headers and software headers and what
not for a completely original look.

  Next you have to get your new PLR product online for selling!  This is where
you make your money.  Once again you will want to get one product completed
before moving on to the next one.  Don’t let youself lose focus by having your
hand in two many buckets…or however that saying goes.

  There’s a few things you will want to make sure you have in place before you
start selling.  Here’s the checklist.

  3.a  A Solid Webhost.
  It doesn’t make any sense to do business with kiddy tools, you’re a grown up.
Get a good webhost that offers lots of extra’s such as auto-responders and 
affiliate tracking scripts.  If you are going to sell multiple products it would be
cool to have an affiliate program so you could have a bunch of little sales
people promoting your products wouldn’t it?  It’s also cool to have an
autoresponder script built in because you’ll need to manage your sales process
and customers more effectively.

  The only host for serious business:  Third Sphere

  3.b A Domain Name
  Having a domain name will make you appear more professional and will
result in more sales for you.  Which URL would you prefer to purchase from:

http://www.somename.com/products/product1/index.html or
http://www.product1.com

  Getting your domain name is pretty easy.  You can pick your domain name
when you sign up for a new hosting account, or you can simply purchase the
domain name seperately and then point the name servers to your new 
website.  If you are a beginner, I would suggest just picking the name when
you sign up for hosting!

  3.c  A Solid Merchant Processor
  This one is kind of a no brainer, but it’s a hugely important step.

  A 3rd party Merchant Processor will take credit card and checking account
payments for you and cut you a check every week to two weeks.  Make sure
you choose wisely here because these companies go out of business all the
time and can do things like hold funds, freeze accounts or just suspend you
for what seems like no reason some times.

  My Top 3 credit card processors are:

http://www.clickbank.com - They’ve been around for ever and have a sold
                                               reputation for paying affiliates on time and
                                               accurately.  They can also run your affilaite
                                               program for you and pay affiliate.  A huge
                                               advantage to their system.

http://www.paypal.com - Also has been around a long time.  Be careful with
                                          what you sell and make sure to read the TOC with
                                          these guys.  But if you don’t mess it up, they are
                                          great.

http://www.2Checkout.com - These guys are kinda the best features of the
                                                 first two only they are a bit cheaper.  A little
                                                 harder to set up and no affiliate program, but
                                                 they are still a great provider.

  Ok, now you’ve got all that stuff in place.  A bunch of your own products to
sell, that don’t look like anyone elses, on a cool domain name, on solid hosting
and a payment processor to make it all happen.

  Now it’s just time to advertise your business!  Oh boy…that’s a whole other
chapter!  I should write about it sometime!

  Enjoy.
