I Tested a PLR Funnel vs DIY — Here’s the Unfiltered Breakdown

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.

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.
