All you have to do is sign up and then generate affiliate links (through ClickBank) to promote each product. If buyers click and buy through your link, you will get a commission on the sale.
If you are looking for physical products to promote I would recommend Commission Junction. Again they have a very wide range of products and commissions vary from product to product.

The internet is indeed a strange and wonderful place – especially if you are making a living online. The rules are constantly changing. This is both challenging and exciting. To the lazy marketer this spells trouble, but to the enthusiastic hard working marketer this spells opportunity. The fact that the wealth building strategies online is changing constantly it means that opportunities are consistently opening up – especially to newbies looking to establish themselves in the global marketplace.The early nineties saw an explosion in affiliate marketing and many people made a fortune promoting products online. From this era emerged a generation of so-called gurus that in turn made their money sharing their secrets to building wealth online. These formulas, although they worked very well are fast becoming obsolete and ineffective. To make it in this highly competitive on
Now you may be thinking; 'Why would you want to go to all the time and effort of creating your own resellable ebooks, which are likely to depreciate in value very quickly? Surely it is much more time and cost effective to resell ebooks that are already available with resell rights?' If these are your thoughts then you are thinking about resellable ebooks in the wrong way. Let me put it into perspective and hopefully change your thinking on the issue with the example below.
Lets say for this example you are selling your own ebook and someone else's ebook, both for ?1.99 in your eBay store. Now when you sell someone else's ebook you make ?1.99 which is all well and good. However, when you sell your own resellable ebook you make ?1.99 from the sale AND after the sale you have the potential for much more. What potential you may be asking? Well let me explain below just what your own resellable ebook can do for you.
1) Promote:- Your own ebook can be a very valuable promotional tool for your eBay store, your website or whatever else you want to promote. If you want to promote your eBay store simply write a little note such as "brought to you by http://stores.ebay.co.uk/YOUREBAYSTORE." Or you could even write a small paragraph about your eBay store, what it sells etc, and then provide a link to it if people want to find out more. If you have your own website, write an ebook that contains similar content and of course provide a link to your website somewhere within the ebook.
As you continue to sell your ebook with resell rights, some of your customers will also start to sell it and eventually their customers will sell it too. As time goes by your ebook will continue to be distributed, creating an increasing amount of traffic - your very own viral traffic tool. The more your ebook is distributed, the greater the potential for traffic to your eBay store/website.
2) Sell your Premium Product:- If you have a premium ebook then resellable ebooks can be used to sell it. For example, if you have a cooking recipes ebook that you have wrote containing 1000 recipes this could be your premium ebook. You could then use 10 or 20 of these recipes to create a resellable ebook. At the end of this resellable ebook you could leave a note such as "Want to get 1000 recipes just like this? Then Click Here." The Click Here will link to your premium ebook. If people like the recipes in your premium ebook then they are likely to go on and purchase the full 1000 recipe premium ebook.
As before the same principles apply, and as time goes by your resellable ebook gets seen by an increasing number of readers and should generate an increasing amount of sales. Obviously, the above recipe ebook is just an example. The principles above can be applied to almost any product/genre, allowing you to use your resellable ebook to promote and sell a premium product.
3) Sell an Affiliate Product:- If you don't have your own premium product then the same principles from above can be used to sell a product as an affiliate. An affiliate (if you do not know) is someone who sells a product in exchange for a commission on the sale. The one thing I would recommend if you are selling products as an affiliate, is to make sure that you have sampled the product before you promote it. Not only will it allow you to promote the product better (as you will actually know what you are talking about) but you will also be able to avoid products that are of a low quality.
If you are looking for a premium ebook to promote as an affiliate then ClickBank is a good place to start. It has ebooks on almost every topic you can imagine and the commissions are as generous as 75% in some cases. All you have to do is sign up and then generate affiliate links (through ClickBank) to promote each product. If buyers click and buy through your link, you will get a commission on the sale.

Are you -- like 70 percent of small business owners -- working without a plan?Here are three myths that need to be dispelled about strategic planning for small business.1. It has to be formal -- Not so.The value of a strategic plan for your small business is in putting the ideas on paper, creating action steps that will get you where you want to go and implementing those action steps.2. I'm too small -- Not so.Even a one-person business can benefit from a strategic plan. A strategic plan can help you make decisions about time management and budget. You can use your strategic plan to help you determine whether to attend an event or advertise in a publication. It's a check and balance tool.3. A strategic plan is like a ball and chain -- Not so.It's your plan. Too many small business owners feel like once it's on paper, it can't beks, which are likely to depreciate in value very quickly? Surely it is much more time and cost effective to resell ebooks that are already available with resell rights?' If these are your thoughts then you are thinking about resellable ebooks in the wrong way. Let me put it into perspective and hopefully change your thinking on the issue with the example below.

George was a highly specialized Internet Marketing Computer Geek. Every small to large size company who understood the importance of e-commerce was looking for someone with his skills. However, when their HR Department called the Temporary Staffing Agency that he worked for the Employers would request a Computer Programming person with "All" the necessary experience in Computer Programming Languages.The staffing agency lived by the motto that the customer is always right and surely these companies knew what kind of temporary contract worker they needed!Wrong. It took them a couple months to realize that a Computer Programmer and an Internet Marketing person were two different animals. They did not understand that the Search Engine 'Gods' deal in "formulas" They didn't quite understand that no matter how many computer programming languages you could write thatt to you by http://stores.ebay.co.uk/YOUREBAYSTORE."

So you finally figured out how to get those visitors to your site, huh? Well, partner, it's not over. Now you've got to keep them there if you hope for your blog to be effective.So, how do you keep your blog traffic? I knew you'd ask that...1. Your Audience Is More Important Than Your Search Engine RankingsWho knows what way the wind will blow in years to come. You may be able to do without traffic from Google one day - just like you're probably doing without traffic from Hotbot right now.However, you'll never be able to do without your clients and prospects. If you could you wouldn't be in business, would you?So pay attention to what your audience wants to hear. If you configure your blog correctly in the first place, you won't have to worry about a good ranking so much.2. Don't Add to the Noise.It's okay to be silent for short, is to make sure that you have sampled the product before you promote it. Not only will it allow you to promote the product better (as you will actually know what you are talking about) but you will also be able to avoid products that are of a low quality.

4) Generate Leads:- If you don't have your own mailing list yet and are serious about doing business online then I have one simple suggestion. GET A MAILING LIST. It is quite possibly the most valuable asset you can possess in Internet Business. To explain the very basics of list building, you first need to sign up for an autoresponder programme (I use and recommend Aweber), build your list (using a variety of methods) and also maintain it (by providing value to your subscribers). Please bear in mind that this is a very, very basic analysis of list building and I would recommend you did some research on the topic before gettting your own list. I will be covering list building in one of my future 'Ebay Ebook Success' articles but if you cannot wait till then I would recommend Jim Cockrum's How to turn Auction Traffic into Cash. This is the ebook that I used to research and build my mailing list with the help of eBay traffic. Anyway, I'm going off topic here.
Once you have a mailing list, a resellable ebook can be a valuable source of leads. All you have to do is place a link inside the ebook for customers to sign up for your mailing list. Like before as distribution of your ebook increases, the number of leads it generates should also increase.
I hope this article has shown you the potential creating your own resellable ebook provides. Whereas someone else's resellable ebook can bring sales revenue, your own resellable ebook can bring this plus additional sales of your premium products, extra traffic, affiliate commissions and valuable leads. I am not suggesting that you cease to sell other people's resellable ebooks. In fact other people's resellable ebooks probably still comprise the majority of my eBay store inventory. However, even one or two of your own resellable ebooks can make a huge difference.
