[...] Short reports are great for building lists and convert very well. Short reports are short informational products like whitepapers that require a person to enter their e-mail address to gain access to the information. An example of a short report that you might see is “30 ideas to help get your ex back.” Lynn Terry of ClickNewz.com covers short reports in a lot of detail on her site. [...]

I use both. I create the document in the OpenOffice.org document writer, then the simple “export to PDF” feature to convert it into a PDF File. Then I keep both documents, and use ViralPDF to make it rebrandable! This set of resources makes it super simple, quick & easy!

Way to go Lynn, Another step by step post. As luck will have it I created 3 reports. I used your old blog post idea as the basis and it was really simple. I was dreading writing the report but easy peasy. I did use Open Office.org because I was a little overwhelmed with pdf converter choices but now I will use viralpdf next time, thanks

I agree with Brent that a web-based service would be a great solution for everyone.

Thank you Brad – that seems like the most common solution for Mac users. My webinar room is not very Mac-compatible for example (it does try, but really falls short) but I have several Mac users that emulate Windows or run dual.

I often find it the case that a good piece of software doesn’t have a Mac equivalent, so I picked up a copy of VMWare Fusion for my Mac http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001F5VBRU/ and I can run Windows inside a box on my screen and share files back a forth. Or better yet, have dual monitor setup and run Windows on one and OSX on the other.

I don’t know of any Mac-based software that does the job – but if you’re thinking of creating something, I reckon’ the way to go is a web-based service (so that Mac and PC users can both access the same tools).

@Leslie M-B – I think you’re spot-on when you say that Macs are an increasingly large part of the market. We create cross-platform software, and we’re seeing an increasing number of internet marketers turning to the Mac. But still, PC’s reign supreme right now – outnumbering PCs several-to-one.

I would be very interested if you could find a Mac tool Lynn. Saw your tweet on Twitter

Thanks, Lynn! I’ve been looking around as well and didn’t see anything.

Good question – I just asked on Twitter, and will search Google as well. If there’s not a solution yet, there should be!

Hi Lynn,

If my memory is correct, the only rebrandable PDF I downloaded–I think from Nicole Dean–was an .exe file, which of course doesn’t work on Macs. Viral PDF doesn’t work on Macs. Do you know of any PDF rebranding software for the Mac OS? Since Macs are an increasingly large part of the market–especially among laptop users–it seems like these folks are missing a big marketing opportunity, yes?

Thanks!

Exactly – great tip Susanne. I did the same thing and ordered various formats of PLR on a topic and combined them to create a meaty short report!

I’ve been making viral pdf’s for quite some time now and love them.

Another quick tip for using PLR. You’re not limited to the PLR reports you can buy. I’ve also bought article packs from here site and simply copied and pasted the articles into one word document. I slightly rewrote them (mostly beginning and end) to make them flow better as you read through the report, added an introduction, cover page and table of content and the report was done.

A lot of people don’t realize this – but you can get reports with PLR or Private Label Rights. Our friend Nicole Dean offers them at EasyPLR and she has a coupon code set up for us: LYNNROCKS. You just type that in at checkout to get $5 off.

She currently has 4 PLR Reports there, but adds new topics/titles all the time. I purchased a combination of e-courses, reports and article packs to use the content for one report.

You can also use the article packs as a good base for a short report. She has articles on a variety of topics: debt, genealogy, identity theft, video games, wedding planning – just to name a few…
