My $0 Blueprint For Success

Let me tell you a lesson I had to learn the hard way…

I had 10K followers,

tons of ideas,

and the drive to create something amazing.

I was sure I knew exactly what my audience wanted.

So I dove in headfirst,

creating not one,

not two,

but THREE different products.

The result?

Three spectacular flops.

Ouch.

Here's what I wish I knew then:

Having followers doesn't automatically translate to sales.

The missing piece?

MARKET RESEARCH!!!

I had skipped the crucial step of actually asking my audience what they wanted.

Don't make my mistake!

A simple poll or "ask me anything" in your Instagram stories can save you from the heartache of failed launches.

Trust me on this one.

Now,

let's talk about how you can create your first digital product without spending a dime.

Yes,

you read that right

completely free!

After my initial failures,

I went back to the drawing board.

Here's the process I used (and still follow) to create products that resonate:

1. Run polls in Instagram stories. 

"What's your biggest struggle with [your niche]?"

The responses will be eye-opening.

2. Based on those insights, choose your format. 

I went for a course,

but an e-book is also a great starting point.

3. Create your content:

- For courses: Record videos using your phone or computer

- For e-books: Write in Google Docs

4. Make it look professional:

- Design course thumbnails or your e-book in Canva (free plan)

- Edit videos with free tools like CapCut.

5. Host and sell:

- Upload everything to Gumroad (free to start)

- For courses, use YouTube's unlisted videos feature (and upload them on Gumroad.)

Remember,

your first product doesn't need to be perfect.

It needs to exist.

Start small,

get feedback,

and improve as you go.

Here's a quick recap of the free tools that make it all possible:

And here's a pro tip:

Use testimonial.to to collect and showcase user feedback.

It's a game-changer for building trust and boosting sales.

Creating digital products isn't just for the "experts."

It's for anyone with knowledge to share.

And trust me,

you know more than you think you do.

So,

what's holding you back?

-Stay awesome💪
