white label

a.k.a. business in a box

A white label item is a product or service that is packaged plainly, allowing you to repackage it with your own brand in order to re-sell it. Buying wholesale and selling retail is considered the backbone of business. Now the world of white label has moved to the Internet as an opportunity for entrepreneurs.

Here are a few examples of different types of white label businesses that are popular online:

  • E-books with reseller rights - you buy e-books and re-sell it to others.
