Cashing In With Your Own Product

Frank Benjamin, the author of The Bettor’s Guide to Sports Investing and creator of SportsInvestingGuide.com, took some time to write a post about selling your own product.

So you have a website, great content, banners from a select few sportsbooks, casinos and poker room and reviews of those sites.

As a webmaster of a gambling related website, most of your income comes from your referrals to the sportsbooks, casinos and poker rooms. You probably have some kind of PPC advertising on your site as well.

Though many webmasters find this revenue stream satisfying, many are not having the success that they hoped for when they first started.

I didn’t first intend to break into the online gambling arena. I knew there were a plethora a people making money online. Some of these people just compliment their day job while others are making a living online. I read a few ebooks about internet marketing and learned some basics of the craft.

The first thing that was emblazoned into my mind was that most people searching online are looking for information. This stood out to me because it was exactly what I was doing, and I found exactly for what I was looking. I read more books, blogs and articles to find that there are multiple streams in which someone can fish out of to earn income on the internet. The most popular are by affiliate programs and selling your own product.

I looked at affiliate programs with a cynical eye. This is mainly because of the perceived lack of control (I learned better later). To me writing an ebook seemed like a much better avenue to stroll down.

I like to write. I was never bothered by research papers in high school or college; in fact I always preferred essay test of the usual multiple guess…I mean choice.
I only had to decide what to write about.

At the same time I was experience the best success I have ever experience betting on sports, mainly on NFL games and college football. This success was due to a disciplined method of betting called Sports Investing.

I discovered sports investing from years of searching online about gambling and participating in forums. It then hit me; if I had a book that laid the principles of sports investing down for me all those years ago, it would have saved me thousands of dollars. So I sat down and began to write what became The Bettor’s Guide to Sports Investing.

I understand that not everyone would enjoy, or even have the knowledge to write a selling gambling guide. You are in luck because you can have your own product, or products, to sell on your website and keep 100% of the profits. You could also set up an affiliate program to give yourself an army of sales people promoting your product.

How do you get products to sell without having to create it?

It is called Master Resell Rights. Some ebooks, software and scripts come with the Master Resell Rights. These rights allow you to sell a product that someone else wrote or developed on your own for 100% of the profit.

Where do you find such products with Master Resell Rights?

You can search the internet and sift through the list for something. Or you can join the Webmaster Partner Program and receive a betting guide with Master Resell Rights.

WPP members receive a gambling guide, valued $47, to sell or give away to their visitors or members. Just join the WPP by entering your information in form along the column and receive your free gambling guide with Master Resell Rights.

Stay tuned for another post from me explaining how you can make money from giving away ebooks and special reports.

Until next time,

Frank Benjamin
