Public Domain Riches Revealed!

Have you ever looked all over the house for an item and then when you finally found it the item was right under your nose all along?

If you have ever wanted to market a product or to make money selling information products, without losing
your savings or spending thousands of dollars, then public domain might be the answer to your prayers.

It's everywhere you look but do you know what to look for? Everyday you and thousands of others come across public domain information and products without even knowing it.

Striking it rich on your first attempt using public domain is un-likely however let me give you a couple of examples of well-known people who have built financial empires using public domain.

Walt Disney - Do you think all of those cute little characters that made him rich were from his own brilliant mind? Not a chance.

Uncle Walts' early day fortune was created after he discovered the Grimm Fairy Tales, that were loved by so many, had fallen into public domain.

Other than making a few changes and updating the characters along with some of their names he basically copied them and made billions of dollars in the process.

Television media
mogul Ted Turner created "Turner Classic Movies" known as 'TCM' was basically public domain tv because most all of the movies broadcast were in the public domain.

People's love for classic movies brought them to his TV network while also making Ted a fortune selling advertising.

These two cases might be extreme examples however they are proof positive that public domain profits and fortunes are available for the taking.

There is little doubt that thousands of examples from regular everyday people like you, and even some large companies, would fill volumes with their success stories of public domain profits.

So, what exactly is public domain and how do you know if something falls within your rights to use it?

The precise answer requires more space than this introductory article however here is a basic and general overview.

Public domain is most often referred to anything that does not fall under copyright laws including works that are not eligible for copyright or where copyright has expired.

You may only use the works of another, once it becomes public domain, without obtaining permission of the original copyright holder.

Below are examples of just some of the works in public domain you might have seen or come across before without even knowing it.

Posters, books, reports, photographs, movies, tv programs, audio recordings, music, plays, manuals, courses of many kinds and much more!

So what are the benefits of you using public domain information, or works, to create your own products?

Here are a few ideas to get your mind racing.

* Low start up cost
* Eliminate paying royalties to others
* Quickly test a markets viability without a large investment
* Save money testing a market before further development
* Low investment of time - time is money
* You keep 100% of the profits!
* No copyright fees
* Thousands of works already exist you can use starting today
* Prior success of works usually is an indicator of future success. Example Grimm Fairy Tales!

As you can see the possibilities of using public domain for profits are limited only by your imagination.

The question should not be "can I start a profitable business using public domain?" but rather..

Are YOU prepared to do so?
