4. Just because someone else didn't become a billionaire with the master resale rights for a product doesn't mean you can't. Use your brain and figure out how to do things better.
Success in any business is often as dependent on intelligence, motivation, and marketing as it is on the product itself.
Others created the BASIC programming language, but Bill Gates repackaged it and sold it to Altair. Digital Research had a perfect operating system for the PC, but they missed out. Tim Paterson created the DOS operating system that would run every PC in the world. But he sold it to Microsoft for $56,000. Bill Gates is now worth an estimated $51 billion. Forbes magazine says he is the richest man in the world.
Realizing he had a hungry market with a burning need, Gates saw opportunities that others missed, took products that were relative failures, and built a multi-billion dollar empire.
Not everyone is Bill Gates, but don't you think we all have opportunities that we either take or miss? And don't you think we sometimes settle for less than we could have?
That brings us to the final lesson that Bill Gates could teach you about master resale rights:
5. Don't sell your life for almost nothing.
Bill Gates took opportunities that others had and did something with them. Do you think Bill Gates would ever sell the master resale rights to all of the Microsoft products for $10?
Of course not! Yet you will often see people selling master resale rights to great products for less than you'd spend for dinner! They don't realize they are selling their life for almost nothing.
You can't go far on the Internet without someone promising you that you can make a million dollars by selling their product. Do you realize how many $10 products you would have to sell every day to make a million dollars a year? 274! Each and every day, 365 days a year. Wouldn't it be easier to sell 27.4 copies of a product every day for $100 each? Or a $30 monthly membership to a site 8 times a day?
You're not going to see Microsoft selling the next version of Windows for $10 each, and you shouldn't sell yourself short either.
Don't drop your price. Build your marketing skills instead. Find a hungry market with a burning need. Fill it by creating your own repackaged, rebranded product from other people's master resale rights products. Use your brain and figure out how to do it better. Don't sell your life for nothing. Charge a higher price and make it worth it to people. Fulfill their need and you'll have no shortage of business.
