The main thing that holds people back is fear. It isn’t that they do not have the ability to do something (anything IS achieveable), it is that they do not trust that they CAN do anything, and learn anything.
Many new Internet Marketers find this online world overwhelming. They are often confused by conflicting information and lack the necessary basic understanding to take them forwards. Not because they cannot learn, but because they have not found the right tutorial, teacher or teaching method.
One of the reasons for this is the plethora of people producing and selling products on topics they do not understand themselves. This is the darker side of PLR.
It is too easy to buy a product that has PLR attached and take some simple steps to make it look a bit different from all the rest selling the same PLR product. All you have to do is:
You can then put it back on the market without ever having read it or understanding the content, and therefore not knowing if the method advocated actually works or not. Some marketers don’t even make those basic changes before selling on. They just buy a domain name and put the product straight back on the market.
How does any Internet Marketer tell the difference between genuine products that advocate proven methods and ones that are poorly produced and sold indiscriminately, especially when many of the testimonials are written without the writer having read or used the product either?
Many marketers create products that outline ‘proven methods of making money’ that are simply lies. They are just ideas and the creator of the product has no proof that they work as they have never tested their theory on the open market. They then give Private Label Rights (PLR) on their product, potentially creating a rush of buyers wanting to cash in on a pre-written document, and let other people sell it on without any verification of its feasability. Once someone attaches an indication of potential earnings from the method to it then many buyers can be swayed into grabbing the product simply from the compelling sales page.
Of course the saving grace for all Internet Marketers is the money back guarantee offered through schemes such as Clickbank, but often once a product has been purchased this option is not taken up by the buyer, either because they don’t get round to actually looking closely at the product within the guarantee time frame, or they think it is themselves who are at fault rather than the method advocated. This is particularly true of the new Internet Marketer who can feel quite daunted by technical wording and processes that they are unable to grasp at the beginning of their Internet Marketing career.
If you fall foul of this darker side of PLR use your right to ask for a refund before the guarantee runs out!
If you do use PLR products it is always best to assess the product thoroughly before you sell it on. Don’t fall into the trap of selling poor quality or misleading products for the sake of saving a bit of time and getting something on the market.
In order to avoid the darker side of PLR you need to make all of your offerings stand out from the crowd. The best way to do this is by having unique content. Don’t throw any product you have obtained either through purchase or through a PLR membership site straight back onto the market without a serious re-write.
Look at the main thrust of the argument, the guiding theme of the product, and think about how you can present it in a different way. Are there any glaring ommissions in the information offered? Have you had an experience that would enahnce or illustrate the points being made? Personal experiences are very valuable in your writing. Your readers will see you as a real person they can identify with and will be more inclined to buy from you in the future if they think they know you.
In addition to the re-write don’t forget the other edits mentioned above – always:
All of these steps will not only help the product to stand out against others that are selling the same PLR, but a good quality product will encourage your readers to come back to buy more.
And at the end of the day returning customers are your most valuable asset. Don’t let the darker side of PLR tempt you into its shadows.
I have been posting popular blogging topics for the past couple years. This would be my 3rd I believe. Maybe the 4th. Use these ideas to start a blog that gets the maximum amount of traffic.
That’s my top 5 on the popular blogging topics for 2013 to write about. It’s not a huge list, but seriously it shouldn’t be. You want to know what works and this is it. Going to write about one of these topics? Let me know about it with a comment below!
I remember back when I was a kid. We would take a pillow case and scour the neighborhoods. We would walk through 2 connecting towns and cover a LOT of territory. Back then, we could go out on our own when we got a little older. Now-a-days, people can’t be trusted. Back then they couldn’t, but it was a bit safer than it is now. I would never let my kids do the things I was able to do back then.
Some safety tips…
Stay safe!
Today I log into Facebook and I am instantly hit with a stack of notifications. I scroll down and find the usual.
Photo tagging has to be one of the worst Facebook features ever. I mean…it’s nice when you get tagged in a photo after you went to a party or some other event, but to get tagged in some stupid inspiration photo or an obvious advertisement just makes my blood boil. I instantly head towards the “remove tag” feature and I make sure to select the “REPORT SPAM” item at the same time. I do this in the hopes that the persons account will get restricted. It’s my way of revenge. People are always trying to take advantage of my name…my celebrity if you will. They want to get their crap on my wall in the hopes that they will get some traffic from it.
Social media is a great way to get traffic and a loyal following. You know where I stand if you have read this blog at all. It’s got a good function, but it also has an appropriate way to be used. There is a right way in social media marketing, and there is a wrong way. Unfortunately, most people use the wrong way. Let me break it down for you…
Ok, so I packed that list with a bit of a rant, but that’s ok. Got issues with social media? Share them below so I can agree with you!
Hey everyone, just wanted to give a quick heads up that Christmas is coming up soon, and this is a great time for authors. If you have ever published an ebook on Amazon then you know how sales fluctuate. Well, last year I sold a buttload of books during December/January because people are buying Kindles. Where a book may only sell 100 copies a month, it can easily sell 1,000 copies per month in the holiday season.
Most of my books are part of the KDP Select program and I get paid for borrows too. Lots of authors don’t do that because you can’t sell it anywhere else such as the Nook or something, and that means I get more money per download because there are less authors doing it.
Well that’s all. Nothing mind blowing here. Just a reminder.
