I’ve heard successful business people say that PLR is crap. Actually someone (big name) told me he would never recommend anyone use it.
I get that PLR has gotten a bad name over the years (even though it has gotten a MUCH better reputation over the last few years due to stellar PLR producers like Alice, Ruth, Peggy and many more).
I find that really funny/strange because private labeling is HUGE outside of the internet marketing world. You will find many companies offering private labels for various tangible products.
The thing is most ‘guru’s’ will tell you NOT to reinvent the wheel. AND that’s the exact point I want to make about using PLR content. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel!
The key to having success with PLR content is to use it to back up the knowledge you already have. So let’s say you are a health coach or something like that. You already have the knowledge and expertise…why waste time reinventing the wheel? Why waste time putting together your products, programs and services by starting completely from scratch? You shouldn’t. You should find PLR content that is similar to your expertise and tweak it so that you can get your stuff out into the world MUCH faster!
7 Powerful Ways To Use PLR Content
1. Support Your Expertise – So the very first powerful way to use PLR content is to use it to support your knowledge and expertise. If you want to create a program on setting up a WordPress blog then find PLR that already spells it all out. You are the expert so go through the content and fix what needs fixing, add to parts that need more information, take out any unnecessary info, etc.
2. Social Media – Take little bits of information and use it to post to your Facebook page, Twitter, and Google+ accounts. This is a great way to keep people you are connected with engaged with you and your brand.
3. Freebies – Giving away content is a great way to get people to learn more about who you are and what you do. PLR content makes it that much easier to get info out!
4. Create a Webinar – Just put your content into slides and you can quickly create an event like a webinar to teach, support, or connect with your market.
5. Self Pubish on Amazon – Use PLR content to self publish on Kindle or even publish your own book on Amazon. Again this reinforces your brand.
6. Email Marketing – I LOVE using PLR content in emails because it’s super easy to do. This also helps you stay connected and helps people remember who you are.
7. Podcast or Web TV show – Use PLR content to create a podcast or web TV show so that you will always have something to say.
Good PLR also gives you ideas of what to talk and write about. The bottom line here is that there is nothing new under the sun. Using PLR content is just a powerful way to get content out to your ideal market that much faster.
So what’s stopping you from using PLR? Or if you do use it please let us know how you use it in your biz!

Good tips and good ideas Lisa. I intend to take the plr course you offer pretty soon because I want to know some more about it. I have downloaded some and given the information away in auto responder campaigns so far and may do more of that and look into doing more with it as well.
Thanks

Yeah it’s a quick way to get content out to your market especially if you already know a lot about the topic and you don’t want to waste time reinventing the wheel. Thanks for stopping by!
PLR definitely helps me as a prompt. I have so many sites to write for that I get to the point where I’m starring at a blank page without being able to think. PLR is the best way I’ve found to be able to prime the pump, so to speak. With a little research to keep things fresh, it doesn’t take me long to pump out several blog posts. I’m all for it. I found some really trashy PLR lately, but that was my fault for using the site that sold it. Otherwise, I’ve had good experience and plan to keep using it.
