You probably have noticed the term Private Label Rights (PLR) in your research online. PLR articles are simply articles that others have written that you can buy (either in packages or as part of a membership) to use in your internet business. The best part is that you can edit the articles and use them as if you’d written them yourself.
What makes them so special? Unlike free reprint articles from sites like EzineArticles.com or LadyPens.com, you are not required to link back to anyone else’s website which makes them appealing to many bloggers. And, unlike ghostwritten articles, you won’t pay a high cost per article.
I’ll bet you’re thinking right now of how much simpler blogging would be if you had drafts that you could legally copy & paste onto your blogs. Well, with PLR – that’s exactly what you can do. But, don’t think that’s all that you can do with it. In the rest of this article, I’d like to go through a few of the more exciting ways to use PLR content in your internet business.
1. Use them to create valuable information to send to your mailing list. How often do you sit down to write and send your weekly ezine and go blank? That’s now a thing of the past. All you have to do is go to the folder on your hard drive where you’ve saved your PLR articles. Choose one and paste it into your ezine. Write an intro and a few of your own thoughts and you’re ready to connect with your list in minutes.
2. Develop a set-it and forget-it ecourse. Picture this. You find an article set or report at a trusted PLR site called “50 Ways to Save Money on Groceries” and you decide to buy it. All you have to do is copy and paste each of those 50 items into your autoresponder and you’ll have a year’s worth of content that you can mail to your readers in a weekly ecourse. You think that can help you to grow your list and expert status? I certainly do.
3. Send your customers a printed newsletter in the mail. I’m guessing your email inbox is cluttered to the top. But, you probably open and read any mail that’s delivered via the good old USPS, right? Do you see an opportunity there to bypass the noise and get directly in front of your ideal customer? Send a newsletter in the mail. You can do it in minutes if you use PLR content.
4. Record a Powerpoint video. A video is nothing more than a sequence of ideas presented in a, hopefully, logical and coherent manner. So, why create your video from scratch when you can start with a PLR article? Simply take a PLR article, use it as talking points and you’ll be recording your first videos in no time.
5. Publish your first book. Have you ever dreamed of becoming an author? But, maybe you’re just struggling to find the time to write an entire book. Guess what? You don’t have to. If you start with a quality PLR report, you can easily incorporate that into your book as a chapter. I know that it works because my customers have shown me their books on Amazon.
See how easy that is? The only hard part is finding a PLR service that is high quality and fits your niche. Look around. Make sure the PLR package or membership you choose provides you with high quality articles so you can create something you’ll be proud of. Now go and profit!
