What are Private Label Rights?
What are Private Label Rights?
First, it is important to note that all internet marketers need information for their online business. We need information for our newsletters, our websites, our blogs, our information products, our list building efforts, our ebooks, etc.
Since we are in business to make money online, we need to provide information that will be useful and beneficial to our readers and customers. In the short and the long of it, we must be authors.
As authors involved in internet marketing how do we get our information? We research. We talk to people. We read and study what others have written. We get it from our own knowledge and experiences.
One of the resources that is available for us is Private Label Rights (PLR).
Some are afraid of PLR and say they don’t use it. Yet, they will say that one way to produce a product is to outsource it. Well, PLR is just outsourcing in that the information is already available, already produced. The author of the PLR wrote it and made it available to you. So now, you don’t have to go out and find someone to write for you. You don’t have to contract the work out. You don’t have to say would you write an article or ebook for me on this subject and when we agree on what you will do and the price, I will pay you to produce the product for me.
You just pay someone who has already written something about your subject of interest and he gives you the right to use it as you like. You can just publish it again with you as the author or you can edit it to make it more like you want it.
Whither the product came from outsourcing or PLR, it has become yours to do with as you please.
It becomes a part of your research, a part of your collection of information on some subject. Now you take all of the items in your research material and mold it all together to make your own statement. Is it original? Yes, if you envelop your thoughts and do not copy it word for word.
For example, how many ways can you say, “Columbus discovered America in 1492.” Yet, new history books are written every year for our public school systems and they all tell the story about Columbus discovering America in 1492.
How do they do it? They collect all the references that they can and mold the information into their own style and interpretation of what happened.
That’s all we do with PLR. We mold it to fit the situation and message that we want to convey at the time.
The internet is the greatest source of information in the world and yet it is added to each and every day. There properly is not a subject in existence that has not been written about on the internet. And if you are willing to spend the time, you can find it. But you can bet that someone will write about it again in the future only they will put their slant and thoughts into it.
So don’t be afraid of PLR, just use it as a source and rewrite it to fit your ideas and the time and situation you are concern about.
I suspect that in the world of network marketing no subject has had more attention given to it than list building. New or different approaches come out almost daily and yet the message is the same – you must build a list.
So if you want to write about list building, do your research, find some PLR, outsource it, whatever. Then take all of the documents from your research and write your own list building article or ebook. I can almost guarantee that before the start of the New Year someone will.

PLR is one of the most misunderstood ways to easily make products and adding you to them makes them unique easily.
That’s a great explanation of private label rights!
If we has marketers really started to use PLR material to it’s fullest extent, I think we could do many more great things with it. There is so much possibility that I think we often forget about all of the other ways we could be using it.

Great analogy with Columbus books. You are so right, why are people afraid of PLR. It really can help. Keep up the good work.
