today's free course we're going to talk more about what a digital product is different types of digital products you can start selling how to find the right digital product to sell for you how to create your digital product how to set up your online store to host this digital product in and lastly I'm going to show you how to Market and get sales for this digital product you guys already know people usually charge thousands of dollars for courses just like this and all I ask in exchange for the free education is just smash that like
button for the YouTube algorithm And subscribe to my YouTube channel so I can continue to create free courses and education videos just like this I love digital products because you only have to create the digital product one time and then you can sell it for unlimited times over the next 5 to 10 years so you're not just creating a digital product but you're creating a digital asset that can generate you passive income and if you're going to be using the free traffic sources that I'm going to teach you in this free course today your profit
margin will be close to 100% cuz you're not going to have to buy any ads when you sell a physical product there's going to be a lot more costs associated with that physical product business I'm not opposed to physical product businesses but I just want to highlight why digital products are actually very valuable especially this selling them this year with physical products you have product cost shipping fees and more of a risk when starting as a beginner although with digital products you don't have to worry about any of these costs so when you make a
sale you're creeping most of that money from the customer so just for beginners here what is a digital product as you know a digital product is a non-physical product it's something that can be downloaded online that you provide for other people just like how a physical product serves value in someone's life you're doing the same thing with digital products especially as our world is becoming more and more digital as we know it AI advancements has made this process even easier especially this year so I'm going to be showing you guys all the hacks so as
you know there's many different types of digital products there's ebooks PDF guides principles templates planners recipes courses tutorial and guides Consulting games and so much more remember that your digital product just has to have value it just has to solve a problem in some way and this doesn't have to be strictly educational you can provide value with entertainment as well although educational products or something that's solving more of a problem is going to see the most success from my own experience and the digital products are also making the most money across the board the best
kinds of digital products are ones that focus on a specific problem that you can solve it doesn't have to be life-changing but the value has to be there and with all of these types of digital products how do you find the right digital product for you I I know everybody watching this video right now has something they either do in their life currently or are interested in doing or learning just like with every single business model that I teach on my YouTube channel whether you're starting an online business or becoming a content creator you do
have to pick a niche I'm going to help you brainstorm right now so I got you no matter who you are I know there's something that you like or there's something that you know that other people around the world might not know even if you're someone that maybe happens to be really great at making flyers on canva or couponing or you're a mom and you have found ways to make your mindset better as a mom that other beginner moms are interested in learning you're able to find problems with every single one of these things that
other people are facing that you can solve for them with your digital product your Niche does not have to be something revolutionary it just has to be necessary and usually the niches that are the most narrowed down are usually the most successful you like to cook you can sell a cookbook you are a mom you can sell printable games for other moms to use with their kids you can create templates guides whatever you decide on and I'm going to help you also decide on that you can literally bring to life after you watch this entire
free course I know the possibilities are endless so I'm going to show you how to actually narrow that down because you're going to then find your target audience much faster which we'll talk about later in this free course so I want you to First identify problems that your digital product can solve in your selected Niche now it's never been easier to succeed with digital products with the AI platforms that are out here nowadays over the past year now a lot of people have started using chat gbt I started using chat gbt for a lot of
stuff and starting this year I've started to actually use different platforms I've started to use platforms like Trend assist AI instead of chbt because I found that it's more based on specific market research that's actually made for beginners wanting to start and grow fast with their digital product business not only helping them with the creation of the digital product but also helping us Market as well which we'll get to you later AI is literally like a coworker for you guys you don't have to hire people to do anything for you nowadays so today I'm going
to be using Trend assist AI to come up with our product brainstorm it together and even create our digital product for us for you guys' convenience I did put the link in my description box for Trend assist AI so once you're here you can make a free account log in and it's going to bring you to this page so just for today I'm going to just pick a random topic and then go based off of that and no matter what you are doing with your digital product you can literally copy this exact same flow so
I'm going to just pretend like I'm a mom and I want to start teaching other moms how to improve their mindset because maybe you're a mom or you are someone that has overcome something in your life and you want to help other people that were like you before do the same thing so I'm going to ask the AI what are the top 10 problems that moms face with their mindset and let's send that in and here is what it has pulled up for us so now we're able to identify specific problems that moms have with
their mindsets so we're able to really get more specific so now that we have these answers let's go ahead and ask it I'm a mom that teaches other mindset hacks for moms give me 10 trending digital product ideas for this Niche okay let's let this load and now it just pulled up a bunch of more digital products specific ideas for this Niche so I'm just going to look through these and kind of see which one stands out to me the most and personally one of the easiest digital products that I think are great for beginners
are ebooks because they're very easy to put together and you can do this in less than 10 minutes especially with using AI so I'm going to say I want to make an ebook give me 10 trending title ideas for an ebook about mindset hacks for busy moms so now we can see the digital product ebook ideas are narrowed down even more for us and I love this one that's called the positive mom mindset hacks so now we're going to just go ahead just copy and paste our favorite one out of these ebook topics and title
ideas and say so we have the positive mom mindset hacks for optimistic living sounds good now can you write an ebook for me send that in okay so you guys can see it now has written an entire ebook for us in seconds and I love using Trend toist AI because not that many people know about it yet I'm I've been kind of gatekeeping it for a while but I'm like you know what I gotta put you guys on to it because it's going to just give you guys the responses that are guaranteed to give you
the most accurate up-to-date trending knowledge that's not going to be oversaturated so you are not going to be putting out the same content as everybody else and about this AI that I think is even crazier is it actually gets to know you as you are spending time using it so the more information that you include in your prompts or the more times that you actually talk with this AI system it gets to know you so you're going to get a completely different response as somebody else because it's getting to know who you are because it's
literally your coworker it's not just an AI platform that's just like you know spewing the same information it's literally tailored and made for you which is just mind-blowing to me that we have this technology nowadays so now we've identified the problem that you are solving with this digital product we have our digital product written for us ready to go we've narrowed down the different options and you can even it down even more just by going back and forth with this AI getting tons of different ideas now we are going to go into actually bringing this
digital product to life so to put this ebook completely together we're going to use this free platform canva canva is completely free to use even if this day I do not have canva Pro I just use the free canva and I use it for so many different things with my online business so it's just really awesome to get to know and it's worth getting used to and learning the ins and outs of it it's very userfriendly for beginners too and you can you can see here canva has an entire range of free templates to choose
from so if you just go to the search bar here and type in ebook you can see all these different templates that come up no matter what your Niche is or what your aesthetic is you have so many different ebook templates to choose from here if you're wanting to do a longer ebook with lots of information just look for a template with lots of pages and you can do this just by scrolling over the template here and check the little numbering tab I like finding ones with multiple Pages because you can see more lay outs
this way so you have a lot more that you can play around with so let's go ahead and edit the title we can change the images around if we need to and let's get to work I promise this will also take you less than 10 minutes and again we already have all the information from Trend assist AI so we're literally just going to be copying and pasting it over so now I'm going to just copy and paste everything from Trend assist to our canva template so I have one tab open for Trend assist and one
tab open for canva and I'm just going to go line by line and just replace what the template has with what we have in Trend assist so you can change the titles up just like this you can then go to the paragraphs and just copy and paste everything over and just spend some time making this look proportionable and as long as it looks like this and we have this finished product and yours look similar to this then you will be good to go and if for any reason you need to have like more information about
a specific thing the AI usually will give you everything you need but feel free to write your own stuff stuff in here too you know remember like AI is your coworker but it's good to also fill in some of these spaces with just some of your own knowledge so just keep that in mind too that don't be afraid to change this up a little bit to your liking so when you are done with your project just click share up here and on the upper right hand side just make sure it says PDF default and click
download so now we can take a look at our final product you guys can see this is nothing fancy or crazy it's just a simple template and design packed with value for the person that's going to buy it if you do too many Graphics or try to make it look too fancy and busy it's just not going to look good and it could be even distracting and take away from the actual reason why people bought it so just make sure you keep it as simple as possible if you go back to canva you can actually
just screenshot the cover of your ebook here or you can save it as a single image if you want to go the extra mile to make the product photo even better you can just search canva for digital product mockup templates and there's so many free mockup here you can literally just customize and use to make your own product photo look as though your digital product is in use so like put it on an iPad like make sure that it actually looks like that's how the user is going to use it and it will just look
a lot more natural to the buyer so now we're going to just click on the ebook that you want then just click customize this template now we're going to just split our [Music] screens so now we have the ebook that Trend assist AI made for for us on the left and we have our ebook on the right that we're going to just transfer all of the education and information over to the right side which is perfect we're going to just pretty much copy and paste stuff over so let's go ahead and first just copy this
title and we're going to switch up the title here so copy and the fonts here and like basically how they actually made the ebook is pretty good so this is already looking really awesome and then you just like change stuff like over to your name okay and then for a photo if you want to switch photos just click on elements here you're going to search elements so Type in Happy mom you could even do mindset just anything that is related to our keywords and let's see what's going to come up I don't even have free
canva I just use the free one so feel free to just find a free image in here there's they always show you the paid ones first but I always just scroll through here for a um for a good one um let's use this one okay and then you're going to just pull that over here so we can just replace this photo and zoom it here so if you want to change the color the background or anything like that you just click it and you're able to change colors just like this so we can change this
to whatever you guys want just make sure that you keep it as simple as possible if you want to change all the pages you can just click change all and it'll change all the pages to that same color that you picked let's go ahead and actually I'm going to make this like a pink because you know we're trying trying to like be in a more like positive type Niche so let's try to pick like a nice um maybe even lighter than this you could also go to like the color and add like a brand new
color that's not even listed to find the perfect shade of pink right there is looking good you don't want to do too too many colors that are really dark or too Stark because it usually just like doesn't really look good like that so this looks a lot better okay so now for example under contents you can see over here how many chapters that they I made for us let's see how many so they gave us an8 chapter ebook that's going to be pretty good we can just add on to the chapters here so in this
section if you want to you can just click over and then click duplicate and it's going to bring you down another um chapter you can like scroll over it and change it [Music] to and so on and so forth so again this is really just about like kind of learning canva better oh let's just make sure we write it the same way that it's displayed above with actual letters okay and you will just go all the way down until 9 obviously we're not going to waste any time on that now here is kind of like
your About Me section so you can write about like why you chose to sell this mom ebook again if you want to replace any of the images you can just go over them and come over here let's just look for the replace button or like I said you can just go to elements and type in the keyword that you need for your digital product and just use whatever um whatever doesn't have a crown is free so let's just scroll down here and you can drag it in and put it there or you can upload your
own photos obviously by just going to uploads and upload files you can upload your own photos that you can use in your presentation here in your ebook so again right here um you can write about yourself and then down here this is where we're going to just start copying and pasting things over so this is going to be like our introduction page so just copy paste it's just insane how when you have good AI systems how like this goes so fast we're going to copy again we're going to scroll over this and paste we might
have to delete some of these because our introduction is structured a little bit different so feel free to kind of drag these around wherever you need them to be stretch them out to fit the page better make them bigger you just want to make it look like it's nice and full with lots of information that's always the goal that you should have so let's do our second part for this next one copy delete paste stretch it out and if you have like a blank space right here you can just and make sure change the subtitles
too don't forget that or you can just remove them also um let's change this one to okay and then we're going to just put a little photo here if you ever have an empty space that's just a great way to fill it is just by putting a nice um picture there so let's find something cute this one is nice okay let's drag it down can drag this up just make it try to look a little bit proportionate so we got our introduction page let's move on to the next so they use this as like a
little visual page for example if you don't have something that you can use this for this is just a template you can go ahead and just click the trash button to just delete it so here we have another page here um with photos and stuff like that again if like this is too busy and you don't want something like this you can just delete it if you don't want to like replace all of it and then say you like how this page is laid out you can just click on duplicate page and it'll make you
another page just like that so it's easier to kind of copy and paste so this is our next topic chapter one the foundations of a positive mindset copy paste we going to make it smaller drag it over and do our subtitle here copy paste it in here you can do this from your phone too but it's definitely better to just do it from a laptop as you can see there's a lot of copying and pasting so it's just easier to do it like this in the in the case that you need like a whole other
text box again you can um duplicate one of these so just scroll over it and we can duplicate it I just on I'm on a Mac so I just click control click and I was able to duplicate that bring that down and put that in the middle like that and then we can just keep on doing it like this so all I'm doing again copying and pasting over for for every single chapter so when you are done with this you're going to just come up over here and click share and then we're going to just
click download and you want to change this to a PDF standard and just click download now you can see this is what our digital product is looking like and obviously I just wanted to show you guys an example of how to do it you guys are obviously going to change out everything but this is going to come out really really nice now if you go back to the home button and if you search for mockup it's going to pull up a bunch of mockups that you can use for your digital product so for example this
is a free mockup that you can use right here let's click on that and let's click customize this template and we're going to just upload our photo here of our digital product so go to uploads click upload [Music] files going to drag it over we can just delete anything that we don't want by just scrolling over it and clicking delete on my keyboard or you can just um also click the trash can but delete image and delete grid okay so now let's just move just Center this over let's try to pull this over if we
can if we we cannot then we can probably just put something else here that kind of fits or we can just remove these Shadows the whole goal with this is we just want to make sure that we have something that we can use for your website so for example um we could even just type in ebook here let's try to just make this a little bit bigger if we can okay unfortunately we can't cuz it's not a grid but we can make this work so let's go to elements and let's just try to find like
flowers that we can like put back where that empty space is so it just everything like looks more centered okay so this is something and then you can put your website here so we have mama mindset.com do we have Mama mindset. store so now just like that we're going to Click Share we're going to click on download and it's PNG which is a photo which is perfect just click download now we have our product photo mockup that we are going to use for our website so now that we have brought your digital product to life
now I'm going to show you how to create an online store for you to put it in so you can start promoting it and getting sales a popular hosting website that a lot of people will tell you to use is this one called gumroad I personally don't recommend this one because they take 10% of every single sale and that's not including the payment processing fees so it really just adds up over time once you start making thousands of dollars so I just don't think you should really spend your time on this one specifically I personally
also recommend you having your own website that that you have complete control over the website host that I recommend for using digital products in this case is going to be host Diner host Diner also has its own AI store Builder so we can get this store built again in less than 10 minutes I'm also excited to show you how this works cuz it's really cool that AI can build this so fast also Hoster is one of the only digital product hosting sites out there that's the most affordable and has 0% transaction fees which is really
awesome so you're going to be able to keep 100% of your profits I did put the link down in my description box below for for hostinger once you click that link it's going to bring you to this page and you can also follow along and build all of this from your mobile phone too all of the stuff that I've shown you up until now you can also do on your phone and just to show you guys too out of all of the online store hosting platforms out there for digital products this one is not only
the most affordable as you guys can see but it also provides the most features for selling digital products I recommend going with this 12-month plan since it's only $349 a month so let's just say you're going to go with the business plan I recommend this plan because it includes AI tools that the premium one doesn't but more importantly it has these e-commerce tools that are needed to sell your digital products so it's perfect now if you go to this box on the side and you select the length of your plan you can see the longer
that you actually go with the bigger discount you're going to have too and I even reached out to them for you guys and got a coupon for even more money off so if you just go here and type in this code ban business you'll get even more money off off of the already discounted pricing with this they actually are having a New Year's sale right now until February 15th so you'll be able to get a discount off of 48 month plan but if you're watching this video after the fact they do have a lot of
promotions throughout the year too so no matter what it'll be worth it so once you're done you're going to come to this page where you can start building your website this is very simple to use I'm going to show you how to use this AI website builder as well so click here start now we're going to select hosting or Builder with AI to make our website so like I said you do get a free domain name with this so let's just click create a free domain name or if you already have one you can connect
it here so let's go ahead and create ours now since we did our example product in the mom Niche I'm going to call this Store Mama mindset co. store or just check and see what's available and let's go ahead and click continue I like to use store you guys know I usually use that for all my online stores CU it just makes more sense now you're going to be presented with this form that says tell us about your website here you're going to just fill in all the details about what you are using this for
and what you are selling so for my brand name we can just use the name Mama mindset for the website type let's just select online store for the description I'm just going to write a website where I'm selling eBooks and guides on the topic of mindset for moms with the goal to uplift Inspire and educate other moms to go after their dreams and uplift their mindset because you also always want to just put your mission here for what you are selling and I know again I got that off the top of my head but I've
also been doing this for a long time but that's why you also definitely just use Trend assist AI because it will give you a perfect prompt to then use for this AI so now we're going to just wait for this AI to generate our website for us you can actually see what it's working on as it's working which is really cool you can then use the drag and drop feature to customize this website to your liking just like this so this way you're not able to actually have to start the website completely from scratch or
pay anybody to do it for you it can definitely be a process trying to figure out what layouts to use what templates to use I love how this all is done for us with the hosting our AI website builder so in less than a few minutes we now have our website ready to go so now we can see again AI did most of the work for us but we're going to go ahead and make it look even more accustomed to our vision and what we want and this is the fun part you can even change
the style of our website by going here it has different fonts you can choose from different font pairings and it does change in real time so you can see what you like you can also change the colors of the website itself just by going to customize colors down here you'll also see an option for pages so let's just say you wanted to add an About Me section you can do that right here just click this and there's some templates that you can start from there's also this option called elements and you can add these to
your website easily by selecting one of these so if you wanted to add another button to the website just click button here and you can add it on the screen here you can see that editing is super simple there's no coding needed and we created this beautiful website say in less than 10 minutes click on one of the sample products and we can just use one of these so we aren't starting completely from scratch and now we're going to just upload a photo of our ebook you're going to just put the title and description here
and you can use this AI assist tool to help you generate a good description for your product then AI writes the rest of the description for you you can set your price of the product and then when you're done just click this here and the product has been saved don't forget to just go to Store settings here the last option on the bottom left left here you're going to see where to set up so you can actually receive payments you can accept payments through stripe PayPal and even manual payments I accept both stripe and PayPal
for mine you can also customize the checkout area here and manage taxes here too now let's see how our website looks with our digital products it's looking really awesome and this looks really put together when you're ready to launch your new website and start getting sales you're going to just click go live and your website is now ready to go now I'm going to talk about what not that many people actually talk about which is how to get sales because I don't want you guys just starting this just for to sit there I want you
guys to be growing six figure earning businesses in less than a year just like I did because anybody can really actually do what I have done now remember you can design the best digital product in the world but nobody's going to know it even exists if you don't promote it in any way shape or form you definitely do not not need to be some big influencer or have millions of followers to actually be successful with this that's like one of the biggest misconceptions that people have nowadays we are in the era of social media that
you can start from complete scratch and be successful within a couple months with the right strategies that I teach on my YouTube channel I grew two six figure earning online businesses in less than a year with this one strategy which is by using short form content as a funnel there's actually two strategies I'll talk with you guys about today the first strategy is short form content second strategy is some long form content with the first strategy you are able to make short videos identifying problems in your life and showing how your digital product solves those
problems or just creating content that's relevant to your community and what you want to build so for example like with this whole example we use today if you're a mom and you want to make products to help moms with their mental health you could start a page with different quotes showing your own life as a mom it could be faceless or you could use your face completely up to you and start to experiment with some different short form content I can almost guarantee you that there's already somebody out there doing something similar so I want
you to productive scroll and look for other people that are already successful in this Niche that you selected you can take a lot of inspiration from them do not copy them do not try to mimic their stuff but you can look and see how they're doing it to get your own ideas or you can look and see what went viral with other niches and like how they presented the content and replicate something similar everybody has anal equal chance of going viral nowadays my personal favorite platforms to use for selling digital products are Instagram especially Tik
Tok Pinterest and YouTube Pinterest is great because it's also a search engine so if you're putting content out there that includes your digital products in the link of the pins people can actually be searching for these keywords and find your products that way I've actually bought digital products through Pinterest many times myself so this is strategy number one strategy number two is with lawn form content you start creating YouTube videos similar to the niche of what you're selling with your digital product and using that digital product somehow in that video or talking about the topic
but including the digital product as solving a problem of the topic that you're talking about and include that in the description of your lawn form content I know this is a lot of information so I actually made an entire free marketing course on my YouTube channel for you guys that you can refer to so I will put that free marketing course down in my description box below I also launched a coaching community this year that's dedicated to helping you with the very specific things like editing your content seeing what's going on with your content to
help you make it better and something that's much more interactive than you just trying to follow the tutorials yourself so if you're interested in joining that coaching Community I'll put the link for that down below for even more support for you so I can personally give you guys feedback on your marketing strategies you now have everything you need to succeed with selling your digital product and I wish you guys all the best with your digital product Journeys if you have any questions that I didn't cover in this video please leave me a comment so I
can make sure I cover it in a future video or answer you right away I always try to check all of my comments for you guys and as you guys know my YouTube channel is your number one source for 100% free education in courses I always try to do the best I can to include all the value that you need to be successful all I ask in exchange for the free education is smash that like button for the YouTube algorithm And subscribe to my YouTube channel so I can continue to create free courses just like
