Whats the MOST you would ever pay for a PLR software application?

This is a follow up to question I had about two months ago but its not what you might think.

I'm not concerned with the most dollars I can charge for an application per se. Its not a - "How much can I milk you for?" Kind of question.

What i am trying to do is figure out what applications I won't be able to offer as a PLR because it just wouldn't be worth it to me as a programmer.

Now I realize that how much you are willing to pay is dependent on quality and the kind of program so for hypothetical purposes I will use three scenarios

A ) an application I just finished - a back link system that fetches high PR do follow sites (from a database) and displays the list in a scrolling interface with signup details and screenshots with a mouse click. (this is not an offer just a fairly relevant example). How much would you pay to own rights and resell? Most not least.

B) brand new 7-10 volume video training on a subject that hasn't been done over and over again in im. How much would you pay to own rights and resell?

C) an application that steps newbies through the process of creating sales page copy step by step with word processor.


In general what's the maximum you would be willing to buy PLR or master rights for each scenario. HYPOTHETICALLY. So its not a matter of bartering for the lowest price.

As an added incentive (if I get enough feedback) I will give a free gift to two (or three) of the most helpful posters. Thanks

      He is asking about resell rights not personal use.

      Now...

      For the backlinking software I would pay up $200 if I'm not the only one who gets resell rights or PLR for it. If I'm the only one who gets those rights I would pay up to $1000, and if 1-10 other people are given the rights to the software I would pay up to 500-600 bucks.

      For all the others I can't really help because it all depends on the content.

      I can't appreciate something without trying it first. Not a video series.

      The same about your software, but I took in mind that it worth as much as it sounds.

      Cheers,

        I got that wrong. I thought thats what he meant because its already avilable for personal use and certainly isn't $200

        Understood. I know thats a bit difficult. Your 1-10 option is about right (in terms of the idea and probably prices as well). I don't get the point of PLR where there is an unlimited amount of the product sold. After awhile I would think it gets so useless it ends up circulating for free.

        Interesting though. Wide range so far. $67 - $600 on the first scenario.

      Yes it would be lucrative. I wouldn't mind if any one posted their reasoning for pricing a PLR product. I am relatively new to selling off rights to my applications but I thought it would be based on the potential to earn money from selling a PLR.

      being relatively new to the concept when I see a PLR product going for under $40 I figure it must not have much earning potential to it.

    This is an interesting question and it really depends on the angle you come from.

    For example, in the past I have released PLR software that has a high perceived value but by association, PLR is devalued as it is no longer a limited supply resource.

    That is why many people add this as an upsell based on an initial purchase.

    Now, from my mind and perspective I triple or even quadruple the initial sale price to allow MRR or PLR on my software to keep it exclusive and high value. For one project I allowed it to have PLR for $10,000 but the initial software was priced at $2,000.

    It really depends on the market and what it would be willing to pay. My rule of thumb is triple the price of the item for MRR and Quadruple for PLR.

    So if your "backlink" system was worth $37, I would offer MRR for $97 ($111 rounded down) or PLR for $147.

    Software always has a higher perceived value that e-books, etc. and I would take full advantage of that fact.

    All the best

      Thanks for the perspective Sean. Talking about the backlink application scenario I wouldn't see the purppose to having hundreds of people with the rights. too much saturation. So I will add that in that hypothetical situation it would be severely limited. I dont' know if there is an acronym for that like LPLR

      Thanks for the feedback Dave but a software application that helped people write sales copy would never be worth zero dollars.
