Information Marketing is so Easy I almost Feel Bad

There are so many different ways to generate good money on the Web. I’ve tried a number of different approaches and created a wide range of results…

There are things that didn’t work at all for me, and other things that just went through the roof.

The key is in finding a business model that works for you. We’re all different, and it makes sense to think that each of us has our own set of skills and possible skills which we can use when we build any sort of business or venture.

And of course when you’re just getting started you might not even know what you’re good at yet so it’s really a matter of jumping in there and trying a few different things.

I’d like to share some info with you today about one of my absolute favorite markets; the digital PLR industry.

PLR – or private label rights marketing is nothing new.

In fact for the past 50 years vitamin companies, canned food producers, and many other offline operations have worked with smaller organizations to build some gigantic win-win PLR promotions.

If you’ve ever gone to the grocery store and bought the “store brand” variety of your favorite cereal to save a few bucks then you have supported a good PLR campaign.

Of course your grocery store doesn’t have their own Frosted Flakes factory, so they buy the rights from Kellogs to sell a generic version of this great cereal at a reduced price and under a new logo.

And I promise your grocery store is making a total killing with this strategy! They spend no time or money on production; all they have to do is plug right into an existing, in-demand product, put their name on it, and rake in piles of currency for minimal effort.

Why Web Marketing

Posted by WY on July 31, 2008

The Web is not a magic money bag. Well in some ways it sort of is to be honest but not for everybody.

Here’s what I mean:

I love working online. I love building sites, creating products, driving traffic, building lists, seeing payment notifications in my inbox… I love it!

But it’s not for everybody.

I have friends who love gardening. They run landscaping companies that build big stone walls, install huge sweeping gardens on large banks, add waterfalls patio setting, and more.

They love it and they make a killing doing it.

I think gardening is nice… I enjoy the way plants look and smell, and I can even identify a few specimens, but I really don’t want to work with a speade and a saw for any length of time.

But I don’t know a lot about what makes a good garden “work”. In fact I don’t even own any gardening tools.

I would go broke as a pro gardener, because I don’t have the knowledge or the tools to do this sort of work.

So despite the fact that my friends make big money selling gardens I’m not interested in changing careers – I’ll just stick to what I do and make big money doing it.

Despite what infomercials tell us making a living with digital products and Websites is NOT for everybody.

And that’s totally ok.
