How To Use PLR Reports

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

There have been so many free PLR reports floating around recently. I thought it would be a good idea to post this article with suggestions on how to USE them. If they sit on your desktop they won’t do any good in your business.

Melissa Ingold of Special Reports Club wrote this article and she’s a great source of wisdom on the topic.

10 Ways To Use PLR Reports

1. You can easily monetize your special report by using your affiliate links. There will almost always be an opportunity to make a reference to a particular product, service, or website in a report. For instance, if you have a report on teleseminars you can use your affiliate link to recommend a service that can be used to set up a phone line and record the seminar.

2. Using special reports as a bonus incentive is a great way to get people to subscribe to your mailing list. Once they’re on your list, you’ll not only be able to provide them with valuable information, but you can promote your products and services to them as well. Don’t forget to surprise your current subscribers every so often with a new, and free, special report that they can download. They’ll love you for it.

3. Beef up the value of your current products and services by giving away special reports as a bonus gift to those who buy from you.

4. If you have a membership site you can quickly add a lot of beneficial content by providing them as a resource to your members.

5. Surveys are a great way to find out what your customers want, but sometimes it can be difficult to get people to take the time to answer your questions. Giving a report away as reward to someone who does your survey is a great motivator.

6. Personalize one for your niche market and sell it as a special introductory product and get more of your target market into your marketing funnel.

7. Expand the special report into a full size information product.

8. If you need fresh content for your website, newsletter or blog, you can break up a special report into smaller sections to create your own articles.

9. Create an ecourse using the content in the special report. Just load the content into an autoresponder system and the autoresponder will mail each day’s lesson out to your list. Then at the end you can recommend your other products and services.

10. Sell the reports as they are on your website, or with a sales letter. Implementing private label rights special reports into you business is a quick way to get content on your website or blog, to create your own information products and beef up your current ones, not to mention how enticing they are as freebies.

The minimal investment you make now in the PLR special reports can repay you several times over in the long-term. If you need of fresh content right away, or you just want to generate some extra cash with special reports, Melissa Ingold has created a site to bring you quality PLR special reports every month. Each month you’ll have access to a brand new, 2000+ word special report on a business related topic. Click this link to put the power of PLR to work for you!

7 Dollar Reports – Do you have one in you?

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

After reading Lynn Terry’s thoughts on 7 Dollar Secrets, I decided to purchase it and the follow up guide Write That Report (you get the first report free when you buy the second one).

I’ve been saying for a long time that everyone has an ebook inside of them. And I think these two reports will encourage a lot of people to get that knowledge out and into an ebook they can sell for income.

7 Dollar Secrets and Write That Report teach you how to research, create and sell your information products. The two together cost only $7 and they encourage you to sell your small reports for the same price.

The reasoning is pretty solid and make perfect sense to me: $7 is very affordable for anyone with an internet connection, and you’ll have better conversion rates with less returns. With higher priced products, people expect you to overdeliver in value, and this intimidates many potential infoproduct writers.

Most people will blow $7 on a latte and muffin at Starbucks without thinking. It’s a small enough amount that people will spend it on impulse. It’s kind of like the toys, flashlights and disposable cameras that stores keep by the register. Don’t you find yourself throwing one last thing into your shopping cart as you wait in the checkout line? I know I do.

The reports are well written and concise. There isn’t too much information that will cause you to get bogged down. They will be especially helpful to those who have never created an information product before and who may be intimidated by the process. The second report in particular breaks down the process of writing your ebook into a VERY simple process that anyone, even a 5th grader, could do.

The author explains the benefits of selling information online, as well as some common problems – including solutions as to how to solve them. This is what I found especially helpful about the reports – Jonathan explains hwo to overcome these problems, one of which I’ve experienced with my own ebooks. He also includes free sample scripts you can download and use to increase your sales.

Reading these has finally motivated me to launch a non internet marketing product that I wrote several months ago. It’s a topic near and dear to my heart that I didn’t want to charge for. I ended up launching a content site based on the information, but I really needed to create an ebook so all the information could be neatly packaged into one ebook. That’s one of the reasons people buy ebooks: Convenience.

I’m excited about getting started with my topic, and also using the unique method Jonathan recommends for getting affiliates to promote the product. It’s an approach I’ve not come across, but I can see why it would be extremely effective, for two reasons.

Anyway, if you’re like me and have been sitting on an idea for an ebook or special report and need some step by step help to get it launched, get 7 Dollar Secrets AND Write That Report now.

Free Ebook on Creating Small Reports

Wednesday, March 7th, 2007

I have a neat freebie to share with you. Do you want to create an information product but find the process a bit intimidating?

Jimmy D. Brown of List and Traffic just launched a free report called Small Reports Fortune in which he shares his techniques for creating small, 7-15 page reports to sell. Instead of a huge ebook, could you fill up that many pages with content? I think so. I think everyone has a body of knowledge that could easily fill up that many pages.

The trick is to find a topic that people will pay to learn more about… their hot button. What information is your target market really, really hungry for? This is where Jimmy’s report is golden. He shows you how to find out what that topic is, and then repeat the process over and over if you want to to create an entire business around small reports.
