Ever heard the saying "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?" Well, not when it comes to someone copying your digital products! When someone swipes what you’ve created, it feels less like flattery and more like stealing.

If you're selling digital products online (or even if you just have one as a lead magnet in your sales funnel), it's only a matter of when—not if—copycats will pop up and try to profit from your creations. But that doesn't mean you can't do anything about it

Putting would-be copycats on notice early can dramatically decrease the likelihood of them stealing your stuff. Think of it this way—setting up a strong defense early on is like planting a bold "Stay Off The Grass" sign right in your front yard. 

By placing a long-form copyright notice on your digital resources, it sends a clear message and tells users exactly what they can and can’t do with the resource they’ve downloaded from you.
