A big push of late seems to be making money with PLR products. If your unfamiliar, PLR stands for Private Label Rights. The general idea is that you are given or purchase a report or e-book with PLR rights which you can then sell and keep all the profits. What could be better, you have a product ready to go without having to type a word. It can be a quick easy way to make some cash.

You might ask, why would some one give me a ebook to sell and I let me keep all the profits? Two situations come to mind. First the end customer buying the product must give up their name and email address to the PLR product creator to recieve access to the product. Second would be that all the links in the product benefit the creator, be it affiliate links or links to other products they sell. It’s a great deal for the creator of the product with so many people getting their “stuff” out there, in the hands of many people. What does it cost them? Usually, not a penny, you’ve done all the work for them.

Dn’t get me wrong, it can be a great way to start and get some money going into your paypal account. But who is getting the best deal of the transaction? Who gets the up-sells? The cross sells? More importantly, who is getting the precious back-end sales? who stand to make the most money?

I’ve been carving out a income on the net since 1999, pushing affiliate programs. It took me far too long to realize, exactly who I was making rich. Granted I’ve made a good income for many years, but I came to understand, I was making others rich. I’ve spent many years working my butt off to produce traffic to push to some one else’s back-end. Sure I received a commission, but what did I lose on the lifetime of the customer?

What’s the solution? Of course create your own products. Don’t tell me you can not produce your own ebooks, every one can, they just need to start, it works for me.
