Money for Retirees in PLR Software Sales

Be of the others

Due to unexpected events and unforeseen circumstance many retirees have found it necessary to seek employment during a time that was supposed to be enjoyed with other leisurely activities. For these elder members of our families and society, returning to work is vital if they are to financially support themselves. But unfortunately, many retirees are limited in their ability to perform certain tasks such as working long hours or lifting heavy materials, which leaves them looking for alternative ways to make money.

If you are a retiree who falls into this category you can certainly relate to the plight of so many who struggle. But similar to others who have already dove head first into the world of Web Marketing (yours truly included) you may also want to take a look at some of the ways you can make money selling PLR (private label rights) products, in this case, PLR software programs; programs that you didn’t even create.

The point is…

To emphasize the last sentence above I will paraphrase a paragraph from an article titled, Do people really make a lot of money selling PLR products as their own?, written by Geo Masters:

(PLR) Private Label Rights is the rights that give a product buyer the permission to modify and use the product however s/he pleases. s/he could put his/her own name on the product as the author and sell or give it away free. S/he could also sell basic resell rights or even sell master resell rights; and s/he could also opt to use the article on his/her own website, or include it as part of a book that s/he was creating, and these are only a few among many other rights permitted by a PLR license.

The point is really very simple. If you are interested in selling software programs, especially those that you do not have to create yourself, you need to find a trustworthy product owner who is looking to sell the resell rights to a good quality software product pursuant to a PLR agreement. This can easily be done by searching for software designers or developers who are selling the resell rights to their products. In most cases these individuals make most of their money by creating new products which leaves them little time to market and sell all of their products. This means that many professional software developers and designers are often willing to place their product’s resell rights up for sale.

For starters

If you are able to invest a few hundred dollars – the average cost to purchase the resell rights – you may end up finding success with this popular, but unique business opportunity. And once you have officially obtained the resell rights to a software program you should also receive a detailed list of directions from the seller. Such a list often includes rules or restrictions that they have placed on their product. These restrictions may require you to alter the software program in a small way, but in most cases this alternation will allow you to then claim the product as your own, thus working out well for all parties involved.

If you purchase the software product via PLR licensing you can be assured the most freedom to do what you wish to the product in order to get maximum return on investment (ROI) as indicated in the article, How To Sell PLR eBooks – The Ultimate Guide by WayToChanges, who describes this product type as follows:

Private Label Rights (PLR): This is the most flexible type of licensing and it allows you to do everything you want with the purchased digital product. In most cases, there are a lot of things you can do with PLR eBooks, including:

  • You can give them away;
  • You can modify and put your name on them;
  • You can put them into a package;
  • You can offer them in your sales funnel;
  • You can repurpose them in another type of content;
  • You can sell them in auction sites;
  • You can use them in email marketing;
  • You can bundle them with other products.

Resale options

After you are legally able to sell the software program which you have obtained the resell rights to, you will have a number of different options. The selling options you choose should all depend on how much time and money you are able to put into this project. As previously mentioned, many retirees return to work because they are no longer able to financially support themselves. If this is the case, you may be unable to afford expensive selling methods and advertising costs; however, there are a number of alternatives that you can use. These alternatives include the use of online classified ads and the creation of your own website or Web page.

Online classified ads are a great way to let the buying public know that you have a software program that is available for sale. The best part about these classified ads is that most are free which means that you may not only be able to reach your target market, but actually make sales without spending dime. And although online classified ads are a great way to sell your software program, this selling method should be used in conjunction with other methods.

Enjoy your retirement

You should also be able to sell your newly acquired software program by creating your own website. Perhaps the hardest part of this selling method is getting your website up and running, but after that it’s as easy as selling could be. After some time invested in this type of activity you will find that customers will automatically make their way to your website; and if you setup an online shopping cart your product can sell when you are taking a nap, on vacation, or grocery shopping.

If buying the resell rights to private label software programs seems like an opportunity that you would like to be a part of, you are advised to act fast. Your retirement years should be some of the best and you should be able to enjoy these years without having to work too hard. The quicker you get started on this amazing opportunity, the quicker you will make money, and the sooner you can start to fully enjoy your retirement.

Create or Resell PLR Products to Make Money

Defining the PLR product

If someone told you that demand for PLR – private label rights or resell rights – products are at an all-time high, would you believe it? Many of these types of products have been made available for sale during the last twenty-five years and are still in high demand for one simple reason. It is much easier to modify a literary work (any kind) that is already created than to create it from scratch! These kinds of products attract those individuals who are looking for a product that they can make money with by modifying and reselling without incurring charges for them, or being accused of plagiarism.

Perhaps the simplest definition of private label rights products is provided in an article titled, What are Private Label Rights and How Are They Used and published to the Thomas Net website:

“In internet marketing, private label rights is a license where the author sells most or all of the intellectual property rights to their work. The license is defined by the author of the work and has no legal definition. Private label rights is derived from private labeling.”

A private label resell rights business can be done by just about anybody as long as that individual has the ability to purchase rights to multiple PLR/RR products, creatively modify those products and market them to his/her niche customers. It is important to point out that PLR/RR products should not to be confused with private label products, the demand for which have also spiked in recent years because they also allow others to make money selling products that they did not create themselves.

Monetizing talents and/or hobbies

A lot of focus is put on the reselling of private label rights products, but what is often not taken into consideration by many individuals is how those products are created in the first place. The reality is that these types of products (mostly informational in nature) are created by real people like you and me. What does this mean for you? It means that if you have a special talent, or hobby that you are passionate about, you could capitalize on that talent or hobby, especially if you have experience as a freelance writer or a freelance software developer.

As stated by Leslie Truex in the article, How Private Label Rights Can Grow Your Home Business, “Creating and selling information products fits into nearly every business model. If you have a direct sales business, you can sell ebooks related to your business industry (i.e. the importance of vitamins if you sell vitamins or video of beauty tips of you selling makeup. If you’re a coach, you can sell self-paced home education courses. You can use PLR as a low-cost entry or upsell to your products or services.”

There is another aspect to the PLR/RR business which calls for writers, software developers, graphic artists and other skilled professionals to create these products themselves and sell the rights to others. So if you prefer to create and sell PLR/RR products instead of buy them and resell those rights, you can make money as the product originator. All you need to do is create a product that will sell. Start by doing a little research in order to find a niche that is in high demand.

Research and create

Get started now… Free!

Most of us realize by now that the Internet is perhaps the best resource for doing research so you should use it to your advantage. It is where the most significant number of individuals and companies advertise or ask about a particular products or product lines and if you are able to create what they are looking for you can be well on your way to making money as a product creator the rights to which you can sell at prices you set.

Once you have created a product that is in demand, whether that product is a collection of articles, an e-book, or a software program you will want to offer for sale, through advertisements, the resell rights to that product. And for the purpose of advertising the rights to your products you may be best equipped with a webpage or website which could be simple or elaborate, however you want it to be. Once your site is completed you can provide information specific to the particular topic or niche you had previously researched for creating the product and in a reasonably short period of time it will be indexed by the search engines, which is a prerequisite to prospective buyers visiting the site.

Prospects’ motives differ

Some of those visitors may come specifically to purchase the resell rights to your product, others may wish to learn a few things about you and the quality of work you do before they make any purchases, so you must be prepared to answer a few questions from many of your prospective buyers. Questions may range from the price of your resell rights to information on the product itself or your money back guarantee policy. Now that I said let me point out that money back guarantees are few and far between in business of downloadable software and informational products sold on the Web, because once he product is delivered the information you provided cannot be unlearned.

So before you place the resell rights to your product for sale, there are a number of important things that you may want to take into consideration. There are many private label product creators that require their buyers to sign a contract or at least acknowledge an agreement. Some of these contracts and agreements limit the ways that their product(s) can be altered, advertised, or how much it can sell for; but while there are benefits to creating a user agreement one is not required; you will need to decide, ahead of time, whether or not you will have such restrictions.

Something you should make a note of is developing a FAQ page for your site to answer those questions which are most commonly. Believe it or not folks ask questions concerning the creation of private label rights products and want to know, why not just sell the products yourself instead of selling the rights to them? This kind of question is somewhat nuanced, of course, because you can certainly market and sell your own product if you want to, but it may take a lot more time and maybe even more money than you care to invest.

Why create and not resell?
being simple and expand step by step

There are many reasons product creators prefer to sell the resell rights to their products rather than selling the products:

First – foremost, by selling the rights to your products you are able to profit from your creation without doing any additional work to promote, market and sell;
Second – the combination of skills, knowledge and techniques required to create a product are very different from those required to market and sell them;
Third – Informational products being sold may require the creator (author) to offer the product in hard copy also, and that entails additional time and money for publishing and maybe other resources.

There have been a number of different freelance writers and freelance software designers who have found success by creating products and then offering their resale rights for sale. With hard work, devotion and determination you can find that same success. Good luck!
