For the most part this book will entail details on the “do it yourself job” of fence building. However, considering whether a professional is needed should be a serious consideration. You may need to consider hiring a professional if you are on a strict timeline or the project is just too large for you to do yourself in a reasonable amount of time. Nonetheless, getting yourself involved with a fence project only to find out a week into you are over your head is a real concern.

Now you are probably thinking, “What’s the big deal, if I start it and realize I’m in over my head then I’ll just hire out, they will pick up where I left off and all will be fine.” Well, only the end result of the project being fine is agreeable. Starting a project and deciding that you need to hire out half way in will often result in a greater financial, time, and labor loss. For example, suppose you decide that you want to install about 2000 feet of aluminum fence over the course of a month with intentions of a having installing a pool by July.

In addition, you realize that you are budgeted in order to afford the pool you plan to install in the upcoming months. You go to the local stores, shop around and find the best materials at the most reasonable costs. At the start of the fence project, day 1, you have all the necessary materials and appropriate project outline for the fence. Your drawings call for one fence post every 6 feet dug approximately 3 feet deep with crushed stone surrounding the base. You pull out your post hole digger and immediately jump into the project.

At the end of day one you have finished installing 25 fence posts and have spent a little over 8 hours on the project (assuming each fence post you installed from digging to backfilling took only 20 minutes non stop.) At the start of day two your back is hurting, hands are blistered, and overall your body just feels spent. As a result, you take a day off and continue day two on what would have been day three.

After a week passes you have successfully installed 150 posts (basically setting the ground work for 1500 feet of fence) continuing the format used on day one. Now your week long vacation is up and your regular job resumes Monday. With only three weeks left until you anticipated on installing your fence you realize at this rate you will not be able to finish the project simply working on the weekends and you can’t afford to take any more time off from work. As a result you decide to hire professionals to get the job done for you.

After calling the professionals you are excited to find out that they can install 2000 feet of fence in less than two weeks. However, in order for the company to warrant there fence installation they refuse to use the materials you bought and will only install fence fabric on posts the company has installed.

One of the most important reasons as to why copywriting for the web is different is that the mindset of those who are going to be reading is different.

More often than not, most web pages will be found via a search engine. This is very significant, as it means that the person reading your site has been looking either for you or someone like you. So that puts them in control. This is because they will be focused on finding a particular product, service or piece of information.

So anyone visiting your site for the first time and has found it via a search engine will have a few questions in mind. “Have I come to the right place?” also “Will I find what I’m looking for at this page or site?” Finally, they would be asking themselves “Do I feel able that I can complete the task at this point?”

So what is vital is that you answer these questions in both your headline, and any sub-headlines you may have. It needs to be able to secure a response from this first time visitor immediately.

In order for this to happen, your writing needs to provide answers so that the visitor knows exactly what they are looking for.

What is important when writing any copy for the web is that you reassure any visitors that they are in the right place, and that they should continue to read on.

If you’re creating Private Label Rights, your number one market is likely going to be Internet marketers because they will want to purchase so they can resell and earn money. Keep that in mind when you’re thinking about promoting your products. Your primary ways of marketing to them are:

1. Endorse your Private Label Rights product to your mailing list.

If you have a mailing list, this is the fastest way you can make money. Your subscribers trust you (I hope!) and most likely think highly of your products or they would not be on your list in the first place. The important thing to remember is to be honest and NEVER take advantage of their trust, because if your subscribers feel burned, they will lose trust and that will cost you BIG time in the long run.

2. Seek Joint Ventures with E-zine publishers and other online marketers.

If you do not have a mailing list of your own, and it sure takes time to build one up, this is another good alternative for you. Look for other marketers who are selling similar products to yours, or who like to market resale rights/private label rights products and approach them. Usually you can find contact info or emails on their websites, and if you reach out with a simple, direct, professional email you have nothing to lose. Most will not help you, but some will, and if create quality products you can build a reputation and slowly establish powerful partners.

3. Approach Joint Venture (JV) Brokers.

JV Brokers are middle-men who refer Joint Venture partners to your affiliate program. You can engage JV Brokers so they can help you seek out great Joint Venture partners who are interested in working with you. If you are going to engage JV Brokers, your affiliate program must be 2-tier. For every sale made by their referred Joint Venture partner, you pay the broker 10-20% of the product price.

4. Paid E-zine Advertising and Pay-Per-Click (PPC).

If you have the money, you can buy advertising space in E-zines where you can get your website advertised to thousands of targeted prospects. Alternatively, you can go for PPC advertising where you can get targeted prospects through the Search Engines who are looking for what you have to offer. The trick to any sort of paid advertising is that you MUST test. If you do not know what your results are and what works and what doesn’t, you’ll waste a ton of money.

There really are an unlimited number of ways to market your Private Label Rights products (such as viral marketing, article writing, etc), but that’s an entire other topic and too much to cover here.
