There are many PLR (Private Label Rights) products available to you. But if you’re like most people you buy them – and they sit idle on your hard drive.

Stop that! You paid good money for content you could use – so use it. Here are three ways to ensure you profit from the next PLR package you buy.

1. Grab a piece of paper before you start to read the sales letter. Then as you read and you think “I could do this…” – write it down. Those bright ideas seem to fade right after you download the product. Having a written plan prevents your losing them.

If you prefer putting your ideas into a word processor, you can save that document in the same folder where you stored the PLR product. That way you can’t tell yourself “I had a great plan but I lost it.”

2. Record your purchase on your Product Tracker. Not only does this give you a written record of your purchase, but it also reminds you of where you stored the product. The only thing worse than not being able to find something you know you purchased is buying it a second time! And your Product Tracker keeps that from happening.

3. Choose the most profitable idea from your list and do it within the first 48 hours of buying the PLR product. You’ll make your money back multiple times over – and you will get into the habit of action.

That idea may be as simple as posting the product for sale on a new domain – or as complex as recording it as a video product. Regardless of what you need to do, take action quickly – or that product will be relegated to the vast store of “great” PLR materials on your hard drive, that are sitting there collecting dust.

By following these three simple steps you’ll be able to profit quickly from the next PLR course you buy. Learn how to set up your own Product Tracker and increase your online productivity to make this just one of the techniques you use to grow your business.

And remember – between now and August 27, you can pick up a GREAT package of PLR Content here.

Many people feel like they’re gambling when they choose a a PLR product to sell. After all, there is no cut-and-dried formula for finding a topic and a product that people are sure to buy.

Enter the Slot Machine. With its spinning reels, flashing lights, and occasional payoff, you can at least feel like you’re having fun while you do it! Here’s how it works.

Reel 1 is your topic. You “spin” and it spits out a topic that you may or may not be interested in. Let’s say you’re looking at the fitness industry as your target market. The topic reel may have lose weight, chair exercise, steel abs, toned arms, etc.

Reel 2 is your market segments. It has the markets that are interested in fitness: men, women, teens, women over 30, men over 50, senior women over 65, busy executives, stay at home moms, retirees, bicyclers.

Reel 3 is your main benefit. In the case of fitness is may be get back into shape after the baby, attract the opposite sex, have more dates, live longer.

Now that you have your “reels” set up, it’s just a matter of spinning:

Spin 1: Lose Weight | Retirees | Have More Dates
Does that work for you? If not, spin again…

Spin 2: Chair Exercise | Busy Executives | Live Longer
Now that would appear to work! So you now know you are looking for a chair exercise product you can use to target busy executives.

It could be an audio product they could listen to at their desk; a video product they could watch and follow on their computer; or a set of cards they could print and shuffle when they have 3 minutes to spare.

Like gambling, there is no “sure thing” when it comes to choosing a niche and a product. But using a simple technique like the Slot Machine Method can make it more fun and help you narrow your choices faster.
