Digital products are the Holy Grail for creator businesses because they decouple your income from your time. You create once and sell infinitely — no inventory, no shipping, no marginal cost per unit.
Types of digital products
- Online courses: The highest-value format, typically $50-$2,000+
- Ebooks and guides: Lower price point ($10-$50), easier to create
- Templates and tools: Notion templates, spreadsheets, design files, prompts
- Memberships and communities: Recurring revenue from ongoing access
- Software and SaaS: The most scalable but requires technical skills
Getting started
Start with the problem your audience asks you about most. Package your expertise into the simplest format that solves that problem. A $27 template that saves people hours can be a better first product than a $500 course.
