Forget Affiliate Marketing: Earn 100% as a Reseller
OK, I don’t really mean that you should forget affiliate marketing forever and always. That would be bad.
I do however think you should consider yet another way to make money online that doesn’t require creating your own product – reselling.
Reselling consists of buying the resale rights to a product, then selling – or reselling – that product as a merchant. One of the biggest advantages to reselling is that as a reseller, you earn 100% of each sale you make.
For example, if you have a site about health, and were dealing with the topic of rheumatoid arthritis, you might want to promote the very popular book by Margie Garrison called “I Cured My Arthritis You Can Too!“. It sells through Clickbank for $29.97 and pays a 50% commission which means you’ll earn $13.33 after Clickbank takes its share.
On the other hand, you might want to recommend the book, “Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis” by Peter Batty, which is available through eBookWholesaler (see my review) and has a recommended retail price of $17.00. As an eBookWholesaler member, you can sell that one for $17.00 (or more) through your PayPal account and keep the whole amount of the purchase, minus the PayPal fees.
Moreover, you’ll also have access to a plethora of other titles in the health niche including for example, Dealing with Prostate Cancer, Your Guide To Deep Vein Thrombosis and DEPRESSION A Misunderstood DISEASE. There are exclusive titles in almost every niche topic (that you can comfortably discuss with your mother).
Another source of products with resale rights is Jeremy Burns’ Source Code Goldmine series, Version 6 of which was released today. His packages usually include a mix of ebooks, software and multi-media products. And… unlike some sellers of resale rights packages, Jeremy limits the number of licences sold to 500, all of which are usually snapped up within a few days of the release.
Now, before you rush off to buy a bunch of products with resale rights, there are a number of aspects about reselling that you should also consider, which I’ve detailed in an article entitled “Resale Rights: How to Make Money Online Reselling Other People’s Products“.
The article also details how I made nearly $12,000.00 in one month with a product for which I had resale rights.
Read it and decide whether reselling is a good fit for you.

This a Great Article. The reason is because I have made money thousands of dollars using reseller websites. You truly can make money as a reseller. I signed up as a reseller for a hosting company to make tons of extra money for me and my family without doing to much work. It is a turn key and established reseller program that will produce real income.
Rosalind,
Your articles are so interesting and informative. I look forward to checking my inbox for each new post.
I love the way you have your blog designed. You make excellent use of your space without clutter and navigation is a breeze. The way you place ads and links of import is so effective and economical. (I wish I had your “savvy.”)
Are you familiar with Jeff Johnson and the way he uses Wordpress to maximize SEO? What is your take on Jeff’s approach or your own?
Take care,
Melissa
Hello, I see that everybody here knows what are they talking about. I am so impress the way everything is happening on the internet. I would like someone to tell me how to do the same. I have bought several books to start something on the internet. but is very difficult. Someone even sold me a host place, and I am having problems building a web.
I also love the way Rosalind has everything set up in her business I want it too. But how can I start? I will like to start from the begginning like everybody else. Could anyone give a hint?
Thank you!
Marlene
I do not see that book?
Sorry!
Hi Melissa,
From what I understand of Jeff’s Wordpress theme, he uses many of the same plugins that Anik and I recommend in BlogClassroom to SEO his blog.
Wordpress all on it’s own delivers good search engine traffic and those plugins just make it even better, i.e. All in One SEO pack.
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Ros
I am working my IM venture on the cheap (to supplement my pension) for now Rosalind. However, I have faith all shall be well soon — profitable, and I promised myself a trip to Disneyland Park as reward due my success. Perhaps I shall be in a position to join your next class.
Thanks again,
Melissa
Hey Marlene,
You may want to start with the link below, “Build a Site,” or the one above, “Make Money Online.” I purchased Rosalind’s book, “Super Affiliate Handbook.” — It is hard to fall astray with such great direction available here. (Take a closer look at Build a Site, in answer to your original question.) Remember, it is all about determination, perseverance and patience. Stick with it and you shall succeed.
To your good fortune then,
Melissa
Hi Ros,
This is a bit off topic for the above post but I would like to know how to implement a pop under on my Wordpress blog.
I am trying to implement a SearchFeast popunder from CBmall.
I bought a CBmall as you recommended in your Super Affiliates Handbook.
When I place the code in the head section of my theme template nothing seems to happen.
Any ideas? Is it Woordpress related?
Also, you mentioned using popunders but you don;t seem to use one on this site.
Kindest regards,
Kevin
Hi Ros,
Me again. Do you use Google Adwords to sell al, of your resell rights products?
I am starting a Make Money East blog which ,of course, would have no search engine ranking to start with.
Would you recommend Google adwords for relell rights products?
Best regards,
Kevin
Hello Marlene,
or you could go directly to superaffiliatehandbook.com — I purchased the “Super Affiliate Handbook” from Chapters bookstore.
