Click play above to find out why it's important to “ask for the sale” in your content AND how to start doing this flawlessly that your audience will respond to.
Here are The Basics of This “Ask for the Sale” with Your Content Strategy
Most online users are focused on what's in front of them and aren't concerned with clicking around your site OR even finding your website is they find your content on other platforms.
They are looking for a solution to their problem and once they find it, they're gone.
Or they're scrolling through their feed and while they might enjoy your content, you're one of many as they continue to scroll.
The key thing you need to do is start “asking for the sale” in your content. This might mean selling and actual product or leading your audience to an opt-in offer, another piece of content…or ANYTHING that is designed to grow your business.
Facts About Content
Content engages your audience and helps build new ones through search, presence on social media, word of mouth, etc.
Content bolsters your reputation as an expert, entertainer, information provider, etc.
BUT it only effectively presells your products if you ASK for the sale…and if you connect your content to your products.
Ways to Connect Your Content to Your Products
#1: Create product-focused content like product demonstrations, publish customer experiences, give ideas for getting better results with your products and more.
#2: Publish product-connected content to help your audience solve their problems, reach their goals AND find your products. This can be articles that show them “how to” solve their problem with your product making it much easier and/or effective. You can also create content that leads to a free opt-in gift/offer…and then that opt-in offer leads to your products.

As you know, we specialize in done-for-you content…also known as “PLR” with stands for private label rights.
We create informational content and printables that you can edit, add your branding to, use as free content and even as products for sale. There are many ways to incorporate PLR into your marketing and product development strategy.
But for now, let's talk about how to use PLR as free content to increase your sales.
How to Use PLR Articles to Increase Sales
Articles can be used on your blog, on social media, bundled up into reports you give away for free, added to your newsletter and more. You can optimize these articles for search engines — but do follow the tips below to customize your content and make it more likely that you will rank for your chosen keyword phrases.

- Add a unique introduction saying why you’re sharing this. Bonus points if that reason is related to your amazing product.
- Include examples or personal stories. These can be your own, from your customers and more.
- Include a promotion for a product or free opt-in offer…just about EVERY SINGLE time. Train your audience to take action on content they consume from you.

How to Use PLR Inspirational Graphics to Increase Sales
Now, how about all those great quotes and inspirational graphics you see around? We create free poster graphics, card deck graphics and product templates for our customers…so there is not a shortage of these.
They can be added to social media, to your blog or used in emails. Plus, you can add your branding as you'd like. They make great writing prompts as well. Just post the graphic and say why you're sharing it and then say how that connects to a product you are selling, a free opt-in offer or perhaps an experience your client has had.
On your blog or email, you'd probably link to an offer. You can mention the offer in the context of the post, but then also include a detailed conclusion that tells them the next step of what they should do (i.e. get your offer).
For social media, you can link, but since social media tends to be less self-promotional and sometimes you can't add links, the act of discussing your products or customers' experience means you are keeping your products in your prospect's mind. Never assume your followers know about your products. You have to tell them.

My name is Donald Brown, and I use PLR content all of the time so I know all too well just how valuable of a resource this is. PLR has helped me in so many ways when it comes to generating content. And as you probably already know, PLR has saved many people from financial ruin simply because it has helped people with things such as writer's block, and content generation in general.
These ideas that were shared above are excellent for generating sales and promoting your other products. There are numerous ways to get the word out about your other products these days. The possibilities are virtually endless! And with PLR content, you can do it so much faster than if you had to create the products yourself from scratch.
In my personal opinion; PLR content is the perfect resource for cranking out stellar products that people want and need to solve their problems. Couple that along with adding in your own voice, and you suddenly become the expert. That's the beauty of using PLR content in your business.
