Setting up PLR membership sites – Virtually guaranteed income

5000+ FREE PLR articles!

If you are like me, and your hard drive is full of PLR, membership sites are something you should definitely think about. In this post, we will talk about how to create a full-fledged membership site using PLR material, and only using free tools.

Why start your own membership site

The most important reason for starting your own membership site is that it can virtually guarantee your income from month to month. Each member pays you a fixed amount per month, and the more members you have, the more money you make.

The beauty of this setup is that you only have to sell each member once. Once you get a customer to join your membership site, you keep getting paid by that customer month after month, for as long as they stay a member.

So what this means is that you can have a very nice monthly income just by making a few new sales per month. This is because you keep getting paid each month for the sales you made in the past months, plus you also start getting paid for the new sales you made this month.

So as an example, let’s say you have a membership site that sells for $19/month, and you make just one sale per day. At this rate, you make $570 at the end of the first month. At the end of the second month, you make $1,140. At the end of the third month, you make $1,710. At the end of the sixth month, you make $3,420. And so on.

Do you see how it keeps increasing? Just one sale per day translates into a healthy monthly income after just a few months. And it goes up from there.

How to start your own membership site

In spite of what you may think or may have heard, it’s not hard to get started at all. And it doesn’t cost a whole lot of money either. In fact, you can get started in just a few minutes if you want.

And I will show you two methods, one of which will let you get started using just free tools, and the other will require you to invest just a few bucks per month to keep going. I suggest you take a look at both, and pick the one you like best.

I have personally used both methods to make money for myself (still do) and can vouch for their ease of use and low-tech setup.

Method 1: Start your membership site using free tools

This method is not just low cost, it’s also low tech, and takes just a few hours per month to maintain. It’s basically a set of videos that you can watch to learn the full details.

Just one thing: The video will show you how to get your membership site started in six minutes, but it will take you a little longer to put the content in place (of course). Just something I thought I should let you know before you dive into the full details.

More details are out of scope for this blog post, so if you are interested, you can click here to learn more.

Method 2: Start your membership site using low cost tools

Once again, this method is also pretty low tech, and employs a low cost tool to get going. The advantage of this method over the previous one is that you only need to do the work once as far as creating content is concerned. After that, as new members keep joining, they start at the beginning, and go through the rest of the content in a linear fashion.

You can get started in 48 hours or less.

Read more on this page.

Like I said, I have personally used both methods, and still use them to make money every single month. As different as the two methods are, they have one thing in common – make you money using your own membership sites, month after month.

You can use PLR content for these membership sites, or you can write your own if you want. A package of 200,000+ PLR articles is available here.

How to outsource without hiring anyone

Ideas for PLR Profits, Making Money 5 Comments »

This insight has resulted in a five figure income for me in the past six months or so. It’s a game changer, as far as I am concerned.

Before I share the insight with you, tell me something:

Why do we outsource?

Well, I think we outsource stuff for two reasons:

  1. To save time
  2. To save money

Outsourcing saves time because it lets us delegate the work to someone else while we do something that is more important or enjoyable.

And outsourcing saves money as well because it’s more expensive in many cases to do it yourself, thus robbing yourself of time to do more important stuff, or because it’s costly to do it wrong (for example, if you are not a designer, and try to design your site yourself, it may well cost you a lot in lost sales).

So yeah, outsourcing rocks.

But is there a way to make outsourcing even better?

What if we could save even more time and save even more money as we outsource? Is it possible?

Can we reduce the time it takes to outsource to someone and get back the result to a bare minimum, say a few minutes or seconds?

And can we reduce the money it takes to get our desired outcome to pennies on the dollar?

Can we?

Yes!

Outsourcing is a process. What you want is results.

So why not focus on the results, and skip the process?

Create time and money by investing into results, not the process.

For example, if you want a site design, it’s quicker and cheaper to just buy a web template, rather than hiring a designer to do it for you. Just look for a design that meets your needs, customize it to your tastes and requirements, and you are good to go. Takes just an hour or two at the max.

Another example: If you want to add content to your site, it’s quicker and cheaper to get hold of a few PLR articles and just add them to your site after rewriting them a bit.

Yet another example: If you want to sell products of your own, it’s much quicker and cheaper to buy a product with resale rights than it is to create one from scratch or hiring someone to create it for you.

The power of outsourcing without hiring

Do you see it now?

You were going to spend money anyway (on outsourcing).

But when you buy tools and products that let you bypass the whole process, you not only save a lot of money, you also save a lot of time.

It’s outsourcing on steroids.

And oh, these tools and products that you buy? Well, they will never make lame excuses like their Internet connection broke down, or their hard drive crashed, or they were sick, and so on. They will be there when you need them. No delays. No excuses.

Recommended resources:

Hundreds of thousands of PLR articles (outsource article writing)

Hundreds of thousands of PLR articles with tools to make them unique (outsource the “rewriting” too)

20 resale rights products every week, in a variety of niches (outsource product creation)

Resale Avalanche Club – time sensitive information

Ideas for PLR Profits, Making Money, PLR Resources No Comments »

Please read this whole post carefully, as it contains some very important information about your ability to make money. It also explains…

How I made a mistake about the Resale Avalanche Club

Firstly, I am sure you know about the Resale Avalanche Club that I recently launched. It’s great in many ways, except that it’s too darn cheap, and that is causing me problems because it doesn’t even cover my hosting fees. Let me explain.

For 10 bucks a month, you get access to 80+ products that you can sell and make money from immediately.

It turns out I made a mistake

I made a mistake in keeping the price so low. And I made a mistake in offering such a huge number of free products as soon as you join. Let me explain.

These products cover all niches, not just the IM niche. (OK…)

The products are e-books, audio books, video courses, software, scripts, plug-ins, graphics, and much more. (Hmmm…)

Some products are so huge that they are divided into four parts – each part ranging anywhere from 40+MB to 100+MB! (Wow!)

As if that wasn’t enough, I am giving away 50 products as a free gift to all the early adopters of the club. (Double WOW!)

So if you join today, you not only get all that I mentioned above, you get an additional 50 products the moment you join, ready for you to download.

As you can imagine, with SUCH a huge number of products, and SUCH huge download sizes, I can’t even cover my hosting fees with the current membership fees.

Like I said, I made a mistake.

$10/month is TOO darn low.

I am sorry I made that mistake. I will have to raise the price.

But to be fair to everyone, I will leave the current price for ONE more day. I will raise it tomorrow, Monday, May 25th, 2009. That’s when the membership fees will go to its proper value of $37/month.

I’m sorry about such a short notice, but I hope you understand. The way it is now, I am LOSING money on each membership.

It’s still a steal at $37/month, but if you want, you can join before I raise the price.

Cheers, and enjoy!

PS: If you have any questions, comments or anything else to say, feel free to say it in the comments below. I will read and respond to each and every comment. Thanks.

Update: As I said, the membership price has now been raised to $37/month. It’s still a steal at this price, so be sure to check it out here: http://www.plr-packs.com/resale-avalanche-club/

What is more important than traffic?

Ideas for PLR Profits, Making Money 13 Comments »

You know what is more important than traffic?

A good business model, that’s what.

The better your business model is at extracting money from your site’s visitors, the more money you will make. Period.

One model I really like is the “Publisher model,” which not only sounds fancy and respectable ;-) , but is also really easy for anyone to set up AND makes a lot of money for you, if done correctly.

Here is how it works in the web scenario:

1. Create a website with lots of content on it, monetized using Adsense or affiliate links, etc.

2. Drive traffic to it

3. Make money

I realize that’s overly simplistic, but that about describes the essence of it.

But most people screw it up anyway. They get stuck on the first step – creating the website.

What they do is they confuse the publisher model with the writer model, and mix the two up.

Instead of focusing on PUBLISHING the content on their website, they keep focusing on WRITING the content themselves.

And that’s where the screwup lies. Because writing content not only takes a lot more time than you need, it also pays nothing.

Writing content does not pay you any money. PUBLISHING content does.

If you are going to follow the publisher model, please stick to being a publisher. Let someone else be the writer.

Just like all those publishing companies do in the offline world. The publishers of books and magazines make way more money than the writers themselves.

Not just that, the publishers earn money from a LOT of books and magazines being sold, whereas the writer earns money (if at all) from just a few (or one) book.

Can you translate that back to the web scenario? If you write all the content yourself, you can only have one, two or three websites making money for you (if at all), whereas if you stop writing the content and focus on just publishing the content on your website, you can be making money from a lot of websites, all at once.

Think of a website as a well-oiled “machine” that keeps working for you, day in and day out. Set it up once, and forget it. Then move on to the next machine.

THAT is where the real strength of the Publisher Model lies.

Anyone can do it. I can do it. You can do it.

But the question is, are you going to actually do it?

PLR content makes it really easy for you to follow the Publisher Model. Here is where you can get 110,000+  PLR articles as well as a cool software tool to make your PLR article packs unique to avoid duplicate content issues.
