Introduction to and Profiting from PLR Products

Written by David on February 21st, 2009

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Whenever you buy a digital product along with it come certain rights; things you can and cannot do with the product. A list of common rights would include:

Personal Use Only (PU): Read and use the information for you personally
Giveaway Rights (GR): You can give it away to others for no cost
Resell Rights (RR): You can sell it to others
Master Resell Rights (MRR): You can sell the Resell Rights to others
Private Label Rights (PLR): You can modify the product

Each of those categories has many subcategories of what you are allowed to do; you need to read the rights license of each product to be sure of your exact rights.
For example, some PLR products allow you to resell the product but you cannot claim authorship of it, while other PLR products require that you must claim authorship.

Please note that owning a PLR product doesn’t give you the right to sell it, only change it; be sure to check the rights license to see if you get resell rights also.

Many PLR products come with unrestricted PLR which means that you can do whatever you want with them; this is the type we’ll be looking at for a while. I’ve had some questions about ways to profit from PLR products so I’m answering them in this blog so everyone can benefit.

You may be wondering what you can do If you have unrestricted Private Label Rights to a product, here is a sampling of some options just to give you an idea:

Claim authorship
Change the title
Add new content
Modify some or all of the content
Remove any of the content you wish
Use the content for your Web site or blog
Create articles for article directories
Give it away
Sell it
Add it to a membership site
Do nothing, just sell it as is (not recommended)

The best way to profit from a PLR product is to take it, make enough changes so that you add value and differentiate yourself from everyone else and sell it (or give it away to viral product.)

We’ll start at the beginning and go through the entire process of how to be earning some money using PLR products.

I am going to use the new few blog posts to not only talk about using PLR products but to give you an example.

There is an unrestricted PLR product I have named Hot Trends. It is video training on how to find and make money with hottest trends of the day; it is 6 videos, AVI files, one on each topic.

What I am going to do is:

Edit each one to add a intro page and an exit page
Add some royalty rights music from http://www.MusicForInternetMarketers.com
Create flash files from them
Put a link on each of these blog post to the next video
Put a download link to let you download each video
Give you full PLR rights to each video
Package all 6 videos up, along with a sales page, and give that to you as another PLR product.

Be here next time!
