If you’ve ever debated whether to build your own course funnel or just rebrand an existing one…
This case study might change your mind.
The Setup
Two funnels. Same niche. Same price point. Same promo strategy.
- Funnel A: 100% DIY
- Funnel B: Video Courses Collection course with minimal edits
My goal? Compare time, cost, and sales.
Funnel A: The DIY Beast
I spent 2.5 weeks scripting, recording, editing, and designing every single slide.
I was proud of the end result.
But…
- I burned out
- Delayed launch 3 times
- Ended up with 17 sales
Total time invested: ~40 hours
Total profit: $231
Funnel B: The PLR Plug-and-Play
I picked a sales funnel course from the Video Courses Collection.
Branded the slides.
Added my intro.
Customized a checklist bonus.
Launch time: 3 days
Sales? 29 in the first week.
Total time invested: ~7 hours
Total profit: $472
So What Did I Learn?
- DIY might feed your ego, but PLR feeds your wallet
- Speed = relevance = more conversions
- You don’t need “perfect” — you need “published”
If I had waited to finish Funnel A, I would’ve missed an entire launch window.
My Viral Test Takeaway
PLR isn’t cheating.
It’s leveraging.
Just like using stock music in a podcast or templates in Canva — you’re using tools to accelerate success.
And the Video Courses Collection gave me exactly that — tools to launch now, not later.
