Dear Internet Friend,
I want to tell you a 100% true story about how a simple man with
seemingly no ambition (and was constantly teased for too often 'day
dreaming' while in school) created a business empire worth billions
(yes, billions) using books that were in the "public domain".
But first, if you're not familiar with the term "public domain"
allow me to help give you at least a general idea of the legal and
business power contained in these two words. At a very basic level,
"public domain" means...
...anything that is NOT protected under US copyright law. This
includes ALL works published before 1923 AND, under certain
conditions, works published up to 1978. A 'work' can be anything: a
book, a play, music, photographs, movies, instruction manuals,
courses, reports, posters, etc...
Re-publishing and re-packaging public domain information and
other creative works can make you a lot of money. The reason is
fairly simple: If you find, re-package and sell information that has
fallen into the public domain you do not have to pay royalties or
copyright fees on that work. Can you tell me about any other
business that...
... you can resell over and over and keep 100% of the profits
without paying a penny for the acquisition of it and not ONE CENT in
royalties or copyright fees for its continued use?
In any normal business start-up you will be required to provide a
Tax ID number along with other documents and proof of your business
registration just to be able to buy products for resale! Then, until
you've had a chance to establish 'terms' with your wholesaler,
you'll be required to pay cash, up front, for all your starting
inventory.
If you're buying widgets for $4.95 wholesale and selling them for
$9.95 you must constantly re-invest that $4.95 in more widgets. In
order to do a large trade in widgets you'll need a large inventory!
Before you even open your business door you'll have to invest
$50,000 to $100,000 in widgets and as soon as you sell one of them
you have to take $4.95 out of that $9.95 sale and plunge that right
back into buying more widgets! I call it the 'black hole' of retail
business, because you will...
...constantly have up to $100,000 or more, depending on the type
of business you operate, tied up in cold, hard inventory for as long
as you are in business!
Let's contrast this normal business start-up with one that is
started using 100% FREE public domain information as their
'widget'.
First, I should state clearly that there is not another business
in the world that is more profitable than the 'information business'
i.e. selling books, manuals, reports, photographs, posters, coupons,
gift certificates, courses, etc...but...
The biggest problem for most individuals who want to enter this
enormously profitable business is that they have to either create
their own information product or secure (by paying an up-front fee)
the rights to sell someone else's product.
Again, for most individuals 'creating their own information
product is very hard to do... they can't write or don't like to
write, they find it...
...difficult or impossible to even think about writing an entire
book!
If you love the idea of publishing information as a business
model but you don't want to or can't create your own book or
manual...what do you do?
Let me give you another example. You find a deal where someone
else will allow you to purchase a 're-sale' license to their book or
manual. In most cases these 'rights' can be purchased inexpensively.
The problem, of course, is that everyone else has discovered this
secret and ...
...have purchased the rights to the same book you just bought and
is selling it all over the Internet!
Not only have you lost exclusivity, but in most cases the
'product' has been discounted to attract sales that there's no
profit margin left in the sale of the book! On eBay ebooks are
heavily discounted and sell for pennies. What profit is there in
that?
Now, you can also purchase rights that are much more expensive
and exclusive... $900, $1,500 up to $15,000 or more for the 'rights'
and, in many cases, you'll have to pay royalties on each sale
payable quarterly to the copyright holder. This will certainly make
your product more exclusive and sales will be better, however, you
are still faced with enormous competition... because...
...the investment required to purchase these rights will have
attracted the most dangerous competition of all... sophisticated
marketers or as I like to call them, "players with money"
Yes, these players are competing against you! Not good news if
you're just starting out or want a good chance at making a lot of
money with your 'reprint' right product.
Like I said, let's contrast this business start-up with one that
is started using 100% FREE public domain information as their
'widget'.
First, securing the rights to public domain information will cost
you nothing- they are 100% free to use! It may cost you a few
dollars to 'buy' a used book or course you find in a used book
store, but those costs are really minimal.
Second, there are thousands of works to choose from in thousands
of categories and since almost no one knows this kind of opportunity
even exists...
... you will be able to dominate entire markets before your
competition even knew what hit them!
Third, since you do not have to purchase a large stockpile of
inventory and you have no major competition you can spend your money
where it matters most: creating marketing that makes you money!
Why now? Why public domain information?
First, there are books, courses, manuals and music and other
creative works whose copyrights expire almost every day. These are
all 'products' that are FREE for the taking, if you only knew how to
find them and how to re-publish them!
Second, the vast treasure of public domain information is growing
daily and a very tiny, minuscule percentage of the business public
even know that they can be used without permission, without cost and
without royalties or fees or how to go about documenting that they
are in the public domain to protect themselves.
Third, it is absolutely the easiest way to start or expand an
existing business with such low risk and such high profits ever in
history! Your product is 'free' and when you sell it you keep 100%
of the profits. If you ever see a better opportunity, please let me
know!
This is a massive opportunity that has been created with the
recent copyright expiration of thousands of books, music, movies and
other 'works' that have passed into the public domain in just the
last few months and years, so...
...the time to act is now!
What makes me an authority on the re-publishing and repackaging
of public domain information?
First, I am the owner of http://www.infoproductlab.com
and have been marketing
information products (online and offline) since 1996. I have written
several books and reports on electronic publishing and Internet
marketing.
Second, I publish 3 books that contain 100% public domain
information. These books cost me $13.50 when I bought them at a used
book store. Since there are no royalties due to the authors, I get
to keep 100% of the profits when I resell them. I scanned them into
my computer and I sell them in 'hard-copy' format and as ebooks.
These three books alone earn me thousands of dollars each year in
profits- and the best part is I don't pay a penny in fees or
royalties to anyone! After my marketing costs, the profits are
staggering.
Third, I use images that are in the public domain and re-packaged
them as 'posters' and sell them to art gallery owners all over the
world. The profits from that simple venture earn me what most would
consider a 'full-time' income. I also have several other small
ventures that generate a solid monthly income - all of them from
public domain information.
There are really no limits to the creative business ventures you
can start with public domain treasure!
And, since there are thousands of works in the public domain-
they are simply 'there' - you don't have to do anything to create
the information- they are just waiting to be re-published and...
...they are ALL FREE for the taking!
So, they are 'free'... but how do you profit??
You can do exactly what I did... digitize the information, create
an 'ebook' and sell it on the Internet, create posters, etc.... One
book I re-published is about "day trading", another book is on "mind
reading" and another book is on "advertising and copywriting".
As I mentioned, when you find a work that's in the public domain
you can digitize it (with a scanner hooked up to your computer) you
can have it published as a 'real book' and sell it on Amazon, or
sell it as an ebook or even create a 'course' and publish it!!...
the possibilities are endless and the profits staggering.
Not every kind of work in the public domain will have a market
but here are some examples of books you could be re-publishing that
have an excellent market right now:
- Books on mind reading, thought transference, etc
- Books on marketing, advertising and copywriting
- Books on trading stocks and commodities
- Books on collecting: figurines, Wedgwood, pottery, etc
- Books on hand writing analysis, palmistry and the occult
- Books on herb remedies and natural healing
- Children's books and stories (especially those with color
illustrations)
- Posters (or images that can be turned into 'posters) of all
kinds -the 'patriotic' ones are especially popular right now
- Radio shows, music and movies... and so much more!
Not convinced yet?
I started at the beginning of this letter to
tell you about a rather un-ambitious fellow who built a
billion dollar empire using works that had recently fallen
into the public domain. He based his entire business on fairy
tales that were popular in the early 1800's, The Grimm Fairy
Tales.... can you guess who it is?
It was Walt Disney. Yes, he knew that the Grimm Fairy Tales
were wonderful stories and he also knew they were recently
added to the treasure of 'public domain' works. He changed the
names of some of the characters and 'modernized' them a bit,
but essentially copied them and made a large
fortune selling the stories to a
new generation!
Want another example? How about 'Turner Classic Movies' or TCM...
the majority of the films on TCM are in the public domain, not all
are, but most. Turner gets them at a very low cost and sells
advertising on his station. Is he making a profit? Well if he wasn't
do you think TCM would still be around? He is making a fortune just
from the ad revenue!
How about one more example?... I'll keep it short because by now
your mind must be reeling with the possibilities!
Rebecca Fine received a book in the mail one day. The book was
written by a man who had been dead nearly 90 years. The book's
title, The Science of Getting Rich intrigued her and she devoured
the book in a single session on a spring afternoon in 1998. She
realized how wonderful the book was and started to implement the
suggestions the book taught and her little home business doubled and
then tripled in income from the advice!
She created a web site, made the book available for download (she
scanned or 'digitized' it), and has built an entire business around
that one book that was in the public domain! She has followers from
over 111 countries who have requested a copy and ...
...has thousands of people on her mailing list who all wanted a
copy of that ONE book!
How does she profit? She sells a 'CD' version of the book and
even created an 'audio-book'... she is succeeding because of that
one book... imagine what you can do with the vast treasure chest of
information in the public domain! She has an opt-in mailing list the
size of which most Internet marketers would be envious of...
