If you have been into Internet marketing for awhile now you may have heard of PLRs. This is information, usually ebooks, software, graphics, etc, that you get some kind of rights to use.
You usually get complete rights to re use the information in what ever manner you wish.
You could use parts of an ebook for example to help you to write an article on a subject. You can use the best parts of several books to create one really good ebook.
So this is what I have done in the past and like to share with people who are searching for a niche and a way to give something away to build their list.
I take between 3 and 5 ebooks on the same subject. For instance ebooks on getting traffic to your site. You could choose two or three ways and combine them into one ebook. Or you could just find what I call the “meat” of each ebook on one type of traffic method and write one excellent ebook on the subject.
This is an excellent way to get free content and write an entirely new and better book.
If you are not sure how to do this here are some steps.
1. Open Microsoft word, If you don’t have MSWord, get Open Office at openoffice.org. It’s free and works like Word.
2. Open all the ebooks that you have on the subject you want to write on. Start copy and pasting content into the Word doc. If you can’t copy and paste, then you will have to type the info. Don’t worry about organizing yet.
3. Look at the chapters in the ebooks.. pick a few that look good and rewrite them.. just add to or take away from it. Then start organizing content in groups under these chapter titles.
4. When you have it completed go download cutepdf.com. It is the software I use to turn my word docs into PDF files. You will need to do this to upload your new ebook to your hosting. Click on print and choose cutepdf. It will turn your doc into a pdf.
Yeah.. now you have an ebook!!!
5. Now you need a cover. Get my ebook http://www.ecoversusingfreetools.com It will show you how to create an ecover using free tools!!
6. You can add a picture of the ebook cover into your doc file on page one. Look at one of my ebooks for an example. You can download them from this site.
So now you have a “new” ebook to put into your squeeze page and promote/drive traffic to.
Remember, you are giving something away for free in return for a name and an email address. YOU are building your list.
Your goal is to build your list by giving away something of value. Giving more things of value to your list, then selling things of value to your list.
Always keep the goal in mind.
The last tip I want to share is a mind trick.
When I am thinking of creating a new ebook, I will create the ebook cover first. It makes me think the book is already written. Just seeing the cover is inspiration to write it. The book writes itself.
Open your word doc and click on insert image. Put the completed ebook cover picture on page one. Then your name under it as author. It looks like you have written the ebook already!!!! Try it and see for yourself!!
Ok guys, I will talk about creating your squeeze page next week and an easy way to do it.
Have a wonderful weekend!!

A private label right provides the buyer of the material the right to utilize, alter and change the work in question. The customer may even acquire the right to claim the work as his or her own. Numbers of people purchase a subscription to a program that provides the utilization of articles having private label rights. But, the topic becomes confusing if you decide whether private rights label integrates distribution rights to resell the article substance. Private rights is different from copyright transfer. In the States, copyright can only be transferred by the use of a written and signed contract. Barring a contractual transfer of, copyright still with the original author of the work, whether a formal copyright application was passed or not.
