Introduction
If you've spent any amount of time online buying Information Products, then I have no doubt youāve had come across one of these beauties: the infamous $10.00 profit plan products. But these aren't just any ordinary 10-dollar products, mind you. These are things good stuffs are made of and these products that will continually earn its owner those profits consistently over and over again for as long as other people resell or distribute them.
Thatās right: the keyword is residual income and residual leads. And why do I use both words āresellā and ādistributionā? Well, because many a time, when redistributing such $10.00 profit pulling products, they are more commonly given away free of charge even though, they can also be sold for a small profit. However, the preferred method is to offer them freely.
But, if you offer such products for free, how on earth can you earn any money from them (I always say you canāt make money giving away things for free)? Now hereās the ingenious part of the concept and I'm going to explain how it's done right now so you can use this technique also to earn autopilot $10.00 profits without putting forth any further effort past creating the product itself.
This $10.00 profit plan is not much different than creating a free E-Book or special report that discusses a particular product you may be an affiliate to that you are endorsing. Or, in other words, creating a free viral product to earn commissions with.
The main difference is that you are not promoting someone else's product, but rather, your own in a variety of ways.
And, remember too that it is much, much easier to get a person to part with $10.00 than it would be to get them to spend, say, $100.00 on a single product. Of course, to earn the $100.00 from a $10.00 product, you would need to sell 10 of them in contrast to selling just one of the higher priced product. But that goal is easily attainable with the lower cost involved for your customers.
Warning! Now, before we get into this process though, I must explain something to you about these types of products. You may be thinking, "This has got to be some sort of 'scam' like an MLM or Pyramid Scheme". But I assure you:
it isn't at all. Iām not an endorser of $6.00 pyramid money games so thereās no way on Earth (or any parts of any world) Iām going to do so even if this is the twilight zone!
Once you read on a bit further, you will understand perfectly. Every technique explained within this E-Book is 100% legal as you are providing a product(s) or service for your customers' payments. With that said, let's begin discussing the five major $10.00 profit plans that achieve success for their creators over and over again...
The 10 Dollar Profit Blueprints
There are five different types of products you can apply this infamous profit plan to that will be discussed here. Plus, I'll even offer you shining examples of each one to further drive home the process. Of course, there are many more profit plan examples scattered about the Internet, but these are the five we will be focusing our attention on.
We'll begin with the most well known, and most profitable $10.00 profit plan product and move on to the other two, not so common forms.
The "Re-brand" Plan
Yep, the Re-brand profit plan product. What a well-known product this is!
For those of you that know it, this will simply be a refresher of sorts. And, for those of you that aren't so familiar with it, you will be amazed by the sheer simplicity yet effectiveness of this plan.
Let's first begin with a short, but concise explanation of precisely what the Re-brand product is.
A re-brandable product is one in which you allow your recipients, or those that receive it from you, or another source such as someone else giving it away, to change specific aspects of the product. In general, these are usually designated areas within the product that can be changed to reflect that person's name, web site name or URL link, affiliate links, or things of this nature. These "rebrandable" areas are always pre-formatted by the product's author or creator.
A quick example of a "re-brandable" area would be something like this:
This Product Presented To You By:
[Your Name]
[Your Website URL Link]
Hint: did you know this product is re-brandable, too? āŗ
Now each person that has been granted the right to change this small area, or "re-brand" it with their own personal, or business, information, will oftentimes pay a fee for this right. Guess who collects that fee? The author/creator does! And you never have to do anything past redistributing it to other people who do all the difficult "leg work" for you.
Think of it like this:
You sell the "normal", non-brandible version of your info product to your customer. That's already positive cash into your account. Then, after this customer initially buys your product, they discover that for a one time fee, they can add their name and site URL within the product before they resell it, or give it away for free. That is the process of "re-branding".
The pull of a product that is re-brandible is that your customer will have the ability to possess their own little traffic generation system within a product they did not have to create. And each time they sell, or give away, a copy of the product to their customers, their business information will be seen. All for a small, one time, $10.00 fee. Which of course, YOU collect. As mentioned earlier.
But, this fee collection doesn't just end there with your customers though. Here's a short break-down of what I mean. . .
Your customer gets a copy of your re-brandible product, whether free or paid for. They open it up, begin to read and discover that they can replace your name and URL link with their own generating more traffic for them. So, they pay you the $10.00 fee for the re-branding tool to change the specific area of information, affiliate links, etc., to earn them traffic and extra money. Now, after they have re-branded the product, they begin to follow the same process you did by either reselling the product, or giving it away for free to their customers.
Once their customers receive their copy, open it, and begin to read, they come across the same opportunity to re-brand their newly acquired version for a mere $10.00 fee. So, they decide that they also would like to have a new traffic generation, money earning product. And they pay the re-branding fee. Which of course, goes directly to YOU.
Logically, not everyone that receives a copy of your product will want to rebrand it. But, even if they don't, and your information stays in place, you'll still be earning all that traffic back to your site! Plus, if you have affiliate links within it, then that's a greater chance you will have to earn commissions from those links as well.
Understand as well, that some authors will give away without charge the product, and the right to re-brand it. You may be wondering why they do this.
Well the reason is quite simple really.
The author wants to make his product desirable to all his prospects, or those that he/she hopes to convert into customers somewhere down the line. So, they give away something with a perceived value, a la the re-brand rights, in addition to the product itself.
Now, there is a greater chance that more people will want this specific product because it is more valuable to them. Therefore, it stands to reason that more people will download it, and in turn, after re-branding it with their own traffic generating info(their own URL), will freely redistribute it to many more people than the original author could have accomplished on their own.
But, how will they earn any money from such a product? As briefly discussed earlier, from specific affiliate links the author has placed inside the free product. Many, many online Internet marketers earn lots of extra money by doing this. And anyone else can do this as well. Including you.
Enter the "special report". What this type of information product is is one that is usually in PDF format and discusses one specific topic or subject matter.
In most cases, they are, for lack of a better word, reviews. Reviews about another product that the author is an affiliate to. It takes a bit of skill to create such reports in a manner in which it is not obvious to the reader that this is simply a review on another product.
An example of this is John Delavera's Best Free E-Book.
As you can see, it is available for free download directly at the top of the page. But, if you read on you will discover that you can purchase what John calls "Master Resell Customization Rights" for a small one time fee. Then you can resell the E-Book yourself, and also earn commissions by redistributing the free version as well. John is a well known Internet Marketer and has been in the business for quite a long time. This guy knows what he's doing and you would do well to study his products and pay attention to him. You will learn oodles from John.
The "Payment" Plan
Another magic money-maker can be produced with this profit plan. What this one consists of is creating a simple little product, most commonly an .exe EBook, and the reason for using this format specifically will be revealed in a few moments, which contains a bit of content explaining what the E-Books main objective is, and a link within it to purchase the right to place your own payment link within it when you pass it around to others.
The reason for the use of the .exe formatted E-Book is due exclusively to the fact that within an .exe version of an E-Book, you can include things such as payment link buttons that can be changed quite easily leading to whomever's merchant account. Not only that, but you can also make specific content available with an "unlock" code after the payment is made. Obviously, all ...
