Boost Your Profits By Selling An Ebook With Resale Rights

An ebook with resale rights can offer you the potential to earn substantial online profits without a great deal of work. After all, the product development has already been done and all you have to do is market it.

An ebook with resale rights can be purchased in two distinct ways. The first form of resell rights is known as simple resell rights that allow you to sell the product and make a profit from your sales. This form of resell rights is usually inexpensive to purchase and you cannot claim the product as your own or alter it in any way at all. The benefit is that it allows you to enlarge your inventory and increase your overall sales. People often purchase resell rights much as they might choose to join an affiliate program, to complement their current mix of services, products and information in such a way that they can naturally direct a visitor or customer to a sales page. The advantage of simple resell rights over affiliate programs is that you get to keep all the profit. The disadvantage is that you may have to design your marketing program from scratch as opposed to a well oiled affiliate program that provides tools and resources to assist you.

You also need to understand the terms of the resell rights you are purchasing. Some ebooks with resell rights can be given away for free, others can be sold but may have a stipulated price. You need to read the conditions very carefully because they may include restrictions or conditions on how the product can be distributed. If the product comes with a sales page, you need to check for any restrictions on how this can be used or whether it can be altered to suit your own particular needs.

An ebook with resale rights that are master rights will offer a broader opportunity to make money, however the purchase of master resell rights can be expensive and as with the simple resell rights may still limit you with conditions so you need to read the conditions carefully and make sure you understand them. Master resell rights often come with a web page and give you the right to not only sell the ebook, but to allow your customers to also sell the ebook. However, they cannot transfer this right to their own customers. Master resell rights generally (if they are any good) include a zip file that contains everything you need for your download page.

Before purchasing your ebook with resale rights package, it is important to spend some time researching the likely demand for the product. How many people are searching for the information in your ebook? What sort of competition are you facing? And of course, is the product any good? There is so much junk on the internet with people trying to make a quick buck on poor quality ebooks, that quality is an issue that we all need to address.

If you read the conditions carefully, research the demand for the ebook and make sure you are offering good quality, there is no reason why you can't profit from selling an ebook with resale rights. If others have done so, you certainly can, too.
