Hey whats up?

Today’s post is going to be simple- my favorite way to use PLR.

Here’s the deal-

I know that some marketers see PLR as useless, outdated garbage. They claim that they never use it to help them get ideas, create products, etc.

The way I see it- PLR is researched material that has already been bundled up for me. All I gotta do is spice it up a little, add a new ebook cover,

and I’ve got an entirely new product!

So how do I do that?

For the ebook cover, I recommend just outsourcing it. Fiverr.com is a great choice, but I’ve also used a few Warriors with success as well.

And since I’m about the worst graphics guy ever, this is something I always outsource.

To spice up the product

Step 1) Strip the best information from the PLR report/product

Step 2) Create bullet points outlining the best information

Step 3) Stick those bullets on a PowerPoint or Open Office Impress presentation

Step 4) Use screen recording software like Camtasia or Camstudio to record yourself narrating through the slides. Basically- you’re not just reading the slides, you’re using the bullets as a guide and you explain the information in detail to the viewer.

Step 5) Repeat the process with the sales page (if there is one)

Voila! You now have  a complete video package. You have a sales video to put on your sales page, as well as a video course.

You can now create a membership site out of this, upload the content to YouTube (if you don’t want to use it as a for-sale product), stick it on a

DVD and sell it on eBay, etc.

You can also combine this with the traffic method that my friend Robert recommends in his 4 Hour Product course to really get the ball rolling.

So what do you think? Is this giving you any good ideas? Or was this post pretty much useless without a good video explaining it??

Hey whats up,

I’m curious- is anyone else having a crazy month like I am?

I mean- I’m traveling EVERY weekend!

Plus since I recently moved a bit closer to home, my parents want me to come visit all the time. Bleh.

Anyways- just wanted to let everyone know that I’m getting a bit into the PLR business. Specifically, the IM PLR business. We’ll see how it goes, but here’s a link to my Kindle PLR:

Welp today I mastered a new skill:

How to self-host videos and embed them in my WP site!

Pretty cool, right?

I actually hadn’t made a video in quite some time- I forgot how fun it is.

I’m going to start doing it a lot more, though. It’s SO much easier than writing everything out all the time, and a bit faster, too.

So what did I do today?

So far, I put together a few reviews on my favorite WSOs and uploaded them.

For the afternoon I’m going to be creating a new product- ONLY using video!

Time to go grab a bite to eat then hit the mic again- have a good and productive Friday!

Today is a good day for a few reasons-

1)  I’m redeemed by Jesus

2) I’ll finish a short project that I’ll give away for free

3) I’m breathing and live in a comfortable home where I have plenty of food to eat

4) My wife starts a new job today!

Now I wanted to give a quick motivational video for anyone struggling with their IM efforts-

Check out the video here (I’d embed but they disabled that)

Push, push, push- no matter what happens!

Rock on, Warriors

I didn’t get much sleep last night.

I kinda knew that was going to happen too, because I drank coffee at like 9pm…

Usually the conversation in my head goes like this:

“I can have some coffee- I’ll just go to bed a little later.”

“Yeah but guess what Self- you’ve tried that dozens of times but you can’t fall asleep.”

“Hey shut up Self #2- this time I’ll be able to fall asleep.”

So Self #2- the thinking side of mySelf- shuts up. I drink coffee, then end up tossing and turning all night.

Not a great way to start the day off, right?

Well the good news is- I got a CRAPLOAD of work done last night on my upcoming WSO. I’ll be launching it early next week after I make a few tweaks and add a few more things to it. I’m pretty pumped about that.

I’m also pumped about this weekend. I’m gonna see my Dad for the first time in a few months, hang out with my awesome niece and nephew, and see a few friends I haven’t seen in over a year.

What are you up to this weekend?

P.S. Don’t work all weekend.

P.P.S. Okay you can work one day this weekend- I’ll be doing tons of work on Sunday.

I have something to confess-

I’m a HUGE nerd.

World of Warcraft? Love it.

Skyrim? Played well over 100+ hours (and still love it).

Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and all other types of nerdy stuff?

You name it, I can’t get enough of it. My roommates and I in college used to have LAN parties- basically where you each hook up your computer to a local network and play games together.

Nerdy? Yes.

Amazing? You wouldn’t believe it!

And I know that I’m not alone. There are obviously millions of other people out there who love the escapism that comes with video games, fiction books and movies.

If that wasn’t the case, marriages wouldn’t break up because the husband plays video games all night. Fiction books wouldn’t sell MILLIONS of copies every year, while non-fiction self-help books sell a small fraction of that.

I read something that other day that said that 78% of all books sold are fiction!

Plus, the movie and television industries get into an even bigger playing field, but that’s another story.

In other words- you can’t fight escapism. We all love to escape from out jobs, bad relationships, poor health, and other stuff.

I don’t know about you, but I want a piece of that pie.

If there are billions of dollars spent on the escapism niche (aka entertainment), I WANT IN.

And since selling Amazon Kindle ebooks is one of my 2 main business models right now, I’ve been wondering how to get into selling fiction.

That’s why I have been purchasing Kindle courses left and right. I’ve bought

Simon’s Stupidly Simple Kindle Publishing: $9.57

Kindle Hero: $97

Kindle Case Study: $37

Kindle Celebrity: $97

That comes out to $240.57 I’ve spent on Kindle courses.

And you know what? pretty much all of them told me to stay away from fiction! They said that it’s pretty much a lost cause.

As you can guess, I was kinda bummed.

Well yesterday I found a Kindle course that was a bit different- it said that fiction is the way to go.

Obviously that piqued my interest, especially when I considered what the greats always say- “If everyone else is doing one thing, YOU should do the opposite.”

So I went ahead and bought Kindle X.

Lemme tell you something- halfway through that 23 page PDF, I KNEW it’d get WSO of the Day.

Why?

• It’s simple
• It’s passive
• It leverages the work of others
• It’s a growing niche
• It doesn’t require waiting for a week on ecovers
• It will keep growing itself every month

Now when I purchased it, it was just $11. Right now, it’s capped at $27.

But out of EVERYTHING I’ve read about the Kindle- this is THE most powerful course out there right now.

Obviously if you aren’t using the Kindle right now, it is a useless WSO to you.

But if you are publishing on the Kindle marketplace- this system will rock your face off.

You can check out Kindle X here (that’s my affiliate link)

Or get it here (even though I like commissions, this is about informing my readers- NOT just $$$)

So there you have it my friends- have a good night!

P.S. Are you a nerd too? If so, feel free to leave a comment or shoot me a PM on the Warrior Forum. I like the reinforcement. We nerds gotta stick together!

I’ve been doing internet marketing for over 2.5 years now, but I’m just now getting around to building my blog…

That’s okay though, right? Better late than never they say.

Well I thought I’d use this post to give a bit of information about myself.

I grew up in Georgia, born and raised. I was pretty close to Atlanta though, so I’m not exactly a country boy.

I went to the Georgia Institute of Technology, and it was an AWESOME time. It took me 5.5 years though, as I had a job and a few extracurricular stuff that took up extra time.

I moved to California at the end of 2008 for my first job. I worked there for 9 months just plodding along before I heard about internet marketing.

I don’t even remember how I got on this guy’s list, but somehow I did and eventually ended up at Wealthy Affiliate. From there I learned about the Warrior Forum,all of the different methods to make money online, and I got sucked in.

I started with affiliate marketing. I was applying the bum marketing method, and it still worked out okay at the time. I say okay- I got a few subscribers and sales, but nothing consistent.

After getting discouraged, I went on to try CPA via PPC and PPV, which worked out okay. I didn’t like the products I was promoting though, so after making about $13,000 doing that I ended up quitting that as well.

What finally got me making consistent money was offering a writing service. I actually made hundreds of dollars my first week, so it worked out pretty well for me!

Fast forward to today- I’m still writing for clients, but I’m trying to build more passive, higher-leverage income streams. To be more specific, PLR and Amazon Kindle really interest me, as well as membership sites.

I’ve been a part of E1KaDay for almost a year now, and I can tell you that membership sites- when done right- rock. Dennis and Rachel are getting thousands of dollars a month in passive income, and it only seems to keep growing from that ONE site!

Honestly- I think E1KaDay is the most powerful resource for internet marketers- both new and experienced. There are thousands of downloads in available (think of the WF’s War Room times like 10), great insight and support from other marketers, and a number of WSO of the Day authors to get advice from!

And let me tell ya- when you’re running a WSO, its those people with the big and treat them well that will get you $$$.

So that’s me! I’m plugging along at my day job right now (I moved back to Georgia though), and I’m making money on the side with IM. I’m very happily married and I’m a believer in Jesus Christ.

My ultimate goal is to quit my day job and do internet marketing full time. With your help, and those folks at E1KaDay and the WF, I know it’ll happen soon.

Thanks for reading!

Justin
