When things don’t turn out the way you want them to, try to look at it from a positive point of view. Ask “What’s the opportunity in this?”
This was my Twitter status a few hours ago. I planned to launch my PLR site today but I had to postpone it due to some unforeseen circumstances. Suffice it to say I’m still making mistakes and learning along the way. But I will keep moving forward.
What’s the opportunity in this? I have more time to write more packs and refine my PLR site.
One word rules them all:

I’m also moving forward with my PLR ATM review. I have finished going through Step 2 and Step 3 which contain crucial information you need to know before you actually begin writing articles. Step 3 is quite hefty but by the time you’re done with it, you’ll have a better understanding of what to write and how to write it.
Step 2: Know What PLR Specs Your Customers Are Seeking
Tiffany discusses the length of each type of PLR product, the quality of writing, the format your articles should be saved in and the extra services you can offer with your PLR.
It’s good to have a guideline about the article lengths because I tend to write long articles. Knowing the standard number of words helps me manage my writing time and efforts better.
The video for this step runs for a little over 13 minutes. Tiffany emphasizes the importance of putting out quality products and how word of mouth can help you get more customers.
She also demonstrates some of the processes she mentioned in the PLR ATM PDF which is good because I don’t know how to do some of them yet. While I learn pretty quickly on my own when it comes to tech stuff, it’s still great to see beforehand that it’s pretty simple.
I got a lot of ideas about the extra PLR services she discussed because I know how to do most of them.
Step 3: Get Your Content Created
It’s the lengthiest part of the ebook and it’s also the step where I am spending the most time on. Of course this is the most important part of the whole process. No writing, no product.
Tiffany goes extensively into outsourcing in the first part; she walks you through placing a job request on freelance sites, giving instructions to the writer, and checking the work once it’s turned over. This is useful for PLR sellers or marketers who already have budget for outsourcing.
It’s good to know I have this option down the road, but right now I prefer to create my own content.
She does give a short guide about how to create the content yourself. There’s an actual article sample with her notes about how she wrote it. She also gives other writing tips for crafting your own content.
Then she briefly describes the writing process for other types of content like autoresponder emails and she also gives outlines for writing ebooks and salescopy.
This part of PLR ATM can get quite overwhelming as it is. If you have no experience writing ebooks and salescopy like me, you may want to read more about it. It might take a whole report to explain how to write each type of PLR product but Tiffany covers the basics here pretty well.
The Step 3 video is 7 seconds over 22 minutes. Tiffany shares her go – to outsourcing site which I’m a bit familiar with. She shows how to find reliable freelance writers and she also gives a tip about how to save a bit of money and still find good freelancers.
I really like her tip about how to get ideas for your ebook outline. It makes sense to do this and it makes research much easier and faster. I think even if you’re just writing articles or blog posts, this technique will work nicely as well.
Near the end of the video, Tiffany addresses exactly what I’m feeling: don’t be intimidated about writing different types of PLR. I like that she’s very reassuring; I love that her system is very flexible. She even says if you don’t like it, don’t do it. You can still succeed just by being very good at writing one thing.
My lesson
Honestly, my biggest challenge at this point is creating content. It’s ironic because I know I am a good writer, I’ve earned a degree in Journalism and I’ve been writing since forever.
But there’s something about writing with keywords and internet marketers in mind that kind of puts a stop gap in the creative flow.
The only way I get through this is just to keep writing anyway. I will do the type – delete – type – delete routine until it’s all typing from then on.
Later on, I’ll share more tips about how I get over the writing funk, but for now, if you ever feel stuck in the writing process just keep on typing and you’ll get to the end of that article soon enough.
Remember this: The more you write, the easier it gets.
As I mentioned in the last PLR ATM review post, it helps a lot if you pick a niche you’re interested to learn and write about. If you’re interested in your topic, it’s easier to research for information and to find possible angles for your article.
I’m not saying it will be easy to write that first pack. For me, it wasn’t. I spent one day writing one article!
But I got better with my second and third packs; I averaged about three articles a day. I aim to bump that up to 5 articles soon.
Again the key is:
FOCUS.
