Digital products are blooming on the internet in recent times.
If you still don’t own a digital product, but want to try this side hustle to see how creating one product now can give you revenue for years, this post is for you.
Today I'm talking about the whole process of creating a digital product to finally selling it like a pro.
Let's get into it.
1. Find a problem and solve it for yourself
If you're thinking about creating a product, you must figure out a problem first. A product without a solution is just a random template. As a creator, you should look for a solution to a real problem.
Your digital product will sell like crazy if it has demand.
By finding a solution to the problem, I didn't mean you should work for world peace. Just a simple, easy daily life problem that relates to you and you're done.
Examples.
You're struggling to eat healthy and want to challenge yourself with a 30-day healthy eating challenge. Create a template for this, and solve this for you and others as well.
You're struggling to be consistent, create a simple content planner and help others ( while making money, of course )
This is how you create a product that sells like hotcakes.
2. Create a product
Once you know what you need to create, start working on it. Don’t take more than 3 days for your first product if it's just a one-page template.
The only advice I want to give is that when you are creating your first product, make versions of it. If you want to keep the product free, make a pro version with more features to get some cash.
Free product gets more traffic, but having a pro version will also get some Money.
3. Talk about it ( build in public )
The best thing you can do while building your first digital product is share some snippets of it with people.
This way, you will have a chance to launch it without any self-doubt ( either you'll be in a loop of perfecting it forever and never launch it )
Building in public is the best thing you can do as a digital creator.
4. Publish it
Launch it. Whichever platform you're launching it on, I suggest that you fill every section of the product page carefully. When you launch something on the internet, it goes all over, but for that, you need to add the right keywords.
Also, your mockups should be good enough to attract people to check and make a decision.
5. Start selling it like a pro
You have done everything perfectly, but now comes to sell the product.
How to actually sell the product and get paying customers.
Here are some ways to get traffic, sales and engagement.
Create content around the product and offer discounts
Be active on social media ( most of them or choose only one ) and post consistently
Build trust with helpful content around your niche
Promote it regularly
Should I launch my digital product?
Definitely, if you're an online content creator.
Digital products are the best way to make money, help people with your experience and moreover, very easy to build.
If you want to get into the digital product business, I'll say start now and enjoy the income from it throughout the year.
Good Luck with launching your first product.
