if you're looking for ideas for profitable digital products to sell online you're in the right place today I'm spilling the tea and sharing my top nine picks for digital products that are going to be selling like crazy and high in demand this coming year and the good thing is eight out of nine of these types of digital products can become completely passive meaning that you only have to do the work to create them one time up front and then you can set them up to sell over and over again on autopilot without you having to
do any further active work to fill orders now if you're a digital product seller or you want to become one because I mean who wouldn't want to make passive money working from home then I have something that's going to help you tremendously it's what I wish I would have had when I first started it's my digital product Master Class where I walk through the four crucial steps that you'll need to take to get your digital products business up and running and earning real revenue from day one if you haven't set up shop or made any
sales yet or even if you have but you just haven't seen the level of success in your business that you like to this class is exactly what you need it's completely free to watch and only 4 5 minutes long so click the link in the description box below after you're done watching this video to hop over and jump in all right our first digital product type we're talking about today are activity printables these are any kind of printable activities for kids or adults that would be something that the customer can instantly download print out and
use some examples of this type of product might be a date night idea card set or Advent cards for the Christmas season I found this listing on Etsy for printable Advent cards for kids it's a whole bundle that you can instantly download and print out for the Advent season and you can see that this is in demand eight people have bought this in the last 24 hours printes of all kinds have been on the rise for the last few years but specifically DIY and activity principles are going to continue to rise in popularity and sell
really well specifically on platforms like Etsy our second type of digital product here are also principles but these are educational principles this category encompasses any type of product that's going to be again able to be instantly downloaded and printed out by the customer specifically in the realm of Education whether it be for adults or children some examples of specific products here might be language flashcards or prek resources here's an example of an educational printable on Etsy that we can see is definitely in high demand it's in over 20 carts right now and when we analyze
the listing we see that this specific listing has an average of 66 monthly sales if we multiply that by the sale price of this listing right now which is on sale for 1167 we get a total average monthly revenue of $772 now remember this this is only on this one listing the shop is full of these types of listings I'm sure that are all doing really well so these types of educational principles again are going to continue to rise and be in high demand on platforms like Etsy in the coming year all right moving on
to product type number three and this is AI art now regardless of how you feel about AI tools stick with me here for a minute because this type of product is one of the very easiest and simplest that you can make and truly earn passive income from now you may be wondering are you even allowed to sell artwork that was created with an AI tool online and the answer is it depends on what platform you're using but if we're talking specifically about Etsy they recently came out and took a stance on AI products being sold
on their platform in this article from the Etsy seller handbook they state after carefully considering the complex issues surrounding AI generated content we've decided to continue to allow sellers to use their original prompts in combination with AI tools to create the artwork they sell on Etsy further down it says sellers must disclose within their listing description If an item is created with the use of AI so the basic gist of this is that you can sell AI generated art as long as it was generated using your own original prompt this means that you haven't bought
prompts from someone else but you've come up with the prompt that you gave the AI tool yourself and you also have to disclose in your Etsy listing that this was indeed made with help from an AI tool so let's take this listing on Etsy for instance when you scroll down and look at the description you can see at the bottom here where it does disclose artwork produced with the help of AI technology so we know this is an AI generated piece of art but we can also see this is in demand six people have bought
this in the last 24 hours it's also got one of etsy's bestseller badges so we can know that this is actually selling really consistently now if you're wondering how to actually go about starting to create artwork like this using the help of AI there are lots of different AI tools out there but one of my favorites is KD KD is a graphic design platform that encompasses a lot more than just AI but they do have some really great AI capabilities so let's take a look real quick so I can show you exactly what you could
do to generate digital products to sell online so here I am inside of my K editor and if I come over to the left hand side I can go to the icon on the bottom that says K Ai and specifically I want to show you the image generator and the sets generator so with the image generator I can click on this and give it a prompt to describe the type of image I'm looking for let's say I want a picture of a deer crossing a bridge on a snowy winter evening then I'm going to come
down to Styles and I can choose from several different options of image Style sty clip art styles and Vector Styles so under image Styles we've got everything from digital art to photography anime retro there's lots of different choices there we've got watercolor clip art cartoon clip art Kawai then under Vector Styles we've got line art vintage drawings Vector art cartoon so there's lots of choices here but for now I'm going to come back up to image Styles and try this oil painting style so once I've selected my style I'm going to click generate image and
here is generated an image of my deer crossing the bridge on a Snowy Evening in this oil painting style now I think this is beautiful and could be used as is but if I wanted to try again I could click to generate another image using the same prompt and style or I could go back and change either the prompt or the style so let's try this instead of the oil painting in an acrylic style click generate and here's another version of it in a different style which I think is also really beautiful all right one
other thing I want to show you is KD's erase and fill feature so I've got my image here let's say I've got a photo that I want to use but I don't want a specific part of the photo to be in it I want to erase just a single portion of the photo I can select it and come up here to the eraser symbol and then over on the right toggle on where it says erase and fill and now I can simply use my cursor as a brush to brush over the part I don't want
so if I don't want this pencil I'm going to brush over this but first I might increase my brush size a little bit by coming to the right and bringing this size slider over that gives me a little bit of a bigger brush and I'm just going to click and drag over the pencil and K's AI technology now is going to remove just that pencil from the photo and fill in the background so that it looks close to the original background so we can see the the pencil is now gone it's given us a white
background underneath and we can continue to edit this until we're happy with the way this photo looks there are so many amazing features on KD for graphic design and there's so many different types of digital products you can create on KD to sell either on a platform like ety or in your own shop you can try out K completely for free by using the link in the description box below to see if it might be a good fit for your business and I want to give KD a big thank you for sponsoring this portion of
today's video all right moving on to digital product type number four and this is a notion template if you're not familiar with notion it's a template that many business owners and creators use to track and plan their to-do list a lot of people go on to platforms like Etsy to purchase templates specifically for notion so they're not having to start from scratch but they have a layout that they can then just plug their data into there are all different types of notion templates out there but the one I'm thinking specifically of that I've seen that's
really high in demand is a life Planner on notion you can get as robust and creative with this as you want a life planner might include daily weekly or monthly planning spreadsheets monthly planning Pages a habit tracker a work log maybe a family project manager there's all different things that you can include in a template like this but you will need a little bit of knowledge of notion to be able to create this because you're going to have to create the template within notion because it's specifically for the tool notion but if you know it
or you want to learn notion you can definitely create these and sell them for a little bit higher price than a lot of other digital products might sell for so this specific listing on Etsy is on sale right now for $15 and it's showing it has an average monthly sale amount of 94 sales a month so that comes out to an average monthly Revenue amount of almost $1,500 just for this one listing when we look a little bit further at the shop as a whole we can see they have an estimated average monthly revenue of
$1,565 for their whole shop now we have to consider that this is not taking into account any discounts they might offer so let's say even if they had everything in their shop at a 50% discount this would still put their estimated average monthly Revenue at over $5,000 a month just by selling these types of templates remember these are passive products that they only created once up front and now they're selling on autopilot so they don't ever have to fill these orders they're literally making sales in their sleep or while they're out living their life because
they did the work once up front to create the template to get it listed and now all they have to do is watch the revenue roll in product number number five is one of my personal favorites and this is selling mockup images now when it comes to mockup images if you have an act for photography you can totally take these yourself and that would be a great way to do it because you'll be setting yourself apart and making sure that the images you're selling are truly unique but even if you don't know photography you can
use AI again to help you generate these types of images to sell just remember you need to check with whatever platform you're selling these on to make sure that that specific platform allows sellers to sell products made with the help of AI but like we discussed before if if you're selling on Etsy you can do this as long as you disclose that these were created with the help of an AI tool in your listing so here's an example of a bundle of different holiday themed mug mockups we can see if we come over to analyze
the shop details that this shop is only 7 months old but they've already made 2,196 sales which equals out to an average of 3113 sales per month even if you have something priced really low like this one is on sale for $2.99 right now at 313 sales a month you're still bringing in a pretty good side income and remember again this is only on one listing this shop is full of these listings so it really does have high potential now if you know you're interested in selling digital products online but you just have no clue
what the right product fit would be for your business then I have a free download for you that's going to give you a ton of different ideas and help you narrow that down it's my master list of over a hundred different digital product ideas and I have that Linked In the video description box below so you can grab that right when you're done watching this video all right moving right along to our next digital product type and this is educational videos you've probably heard the term e-commerce but maybe you haven't heard the term knowledge Commerce
knowledge Commerce has been on the rise for a few years and continues to grow in popularity as people are wanting more and more to get Education and Training straight from the comfort of their own home so when you're creating and selling educational videos this could be anything from a single video Master Class to a video set of three or four educational tutorials all the way up to a completely comprehensive full course course the price range on these types of products can range anywhere from low ticket maybe $7 for a training class all the way up
to thousands and thousands of dollars for a full course and training program now I know what you might be thinking I'm not an expert in anything I can't really teach anybody anything and let me just assure you as a course creator myself most of us come into the knowledge Commerce space thinking and feeling that way but the truth is you don't have to be an expert at what you're teaching you only have to be a few steps ahead of someone else that might could use the knowledge that you have a good general rule of thumb
is to be about 10% ahead of the people that you like to teach you can literally create video courses or master classes on just about any topic I've seen classes on pet sitting crocheting DIY projects business education Fitness budgeting the sky really is the limit here so think about what you're passionate about what people tend to ask you about and if you might be interested in creating a video and creating some educational tutorials to sell you don't need any fancy equipment to start this all you really need is a phone that you can record a
video on and a way to edit it afterward when I first started I used the free iMovie app which did exactly what I needed it to do for the first few years when I began creating videos You'll also need to think about where you're going to host your educational videos as you'll need a platform to host and build these out on the one I use is kajabi I love kajabi I've used it for several years so I'll link that also in the video description below if you'd like to check it out for free and see
if it might be a good fit for your business all right our next type of digital product is an industry specific social media template this could be for any social media platform but you want to make it industry specific and platform specific so an example of a social media platform I might create this for would be Instagram I'm going to create a set of Instagram templates that someone can use for their Instagram account and it's going to be industry specific so I'm thinking of creating these in a topical way around a specific Niche maybe I
could create a set of templates that photographers could use or a set of templates that a pet lover account could use maybe I could do this for travel vloggers or real estate agents but the key here is that I'm creating templates that people can then go and purchase open up in canva edit to be what they want it to be and use that as the final image they're going to post onto their social media account sure a lot of people could go on and create these for themselves but you'd be surprised how many people just
don't want to start from scratch maybe they don't have the time or the energy or even the graphic design skills to create these types of really Quality Social Media images so they're going to purchase a pack of templates like this to make their process easier when we look at the analytics for this example listing on Etsy of travel Instagram bundle we see that the average amount of monthly sales for this listing is 78 so if we multiply that by the sale amount of 1393 we get a total amount of over $1,086 each and every month
just from this one listing again this is a great example of a passive digital product because whoever created this and is selling this only had to do the effort to create these images to put these together as a set one time list them on Etsy and now again they're selling over and over again this one says five people bought this in the last 24 hours but the seller didn't have to do a single thing to fill these orders it's set up on Etsy to automatically deliver the link to the buyer after purchase so it truly
is passive at this point now I love our next product it's been in high demand for many years now and I don't see it changing anytime soon and this is a planning spreadsheet bundle there are all different types of planning spreadsheets you could create and sell but specifically I've seen financial and budgeting planners do really well you can create a bundle in this for Google Sheets or Excel or you can even have a bundle that includes both to let people choose which tool they'd like to use it in I found this listing for a budgeting
Google Sheets planner spreadsheets bundle on Etsy and here looking at the analytics we've got 62 monthly sales on average if we multiply that by the sale amount of 1123 that gives us an average estimated monthly total of $696 26 pretty good for just one listing again if you're interested in creating and selling these types of products you'll need to have some working knowledge of Google Sheets or Excel or whatever program you're creating these for and you'll have to have some knowledge of what exactly people are looking for in a planner with around whatever topic or
subject you're creating these for so with the example of a budgeting planner you'll have to think about what people who are looking to track their finances would need in something like a budgeting planner you can always do a little bit of market research by looking at similar listings on platforms like Etsy taking a look at the product description and seeing what other sellers are offering in those bestselling listings you never want to directly copy someone but you can definitely look to get information and Gain some inspiration for something you could do putting your own twist
on it all right next up we've got a really fun one that is one of the absolute best sellers on Etsy and this is digital portraits this is where your buyer is going to send you an actual photograph of whatever the subject is that they want you to turn into a specific style of portrait some of the really popular ones are done in a painting style or a cartoon style this could be a photo of a family this could be a photo of their pet this could be a photo of their house but in this
case your job would be taking that photo from your customer and using your graphic design software most people would do this in Photoshop to turn this into a digital portrait that they could then instantly download and print out then we search the term digital family portrait on Etsy we can see all the different fun styles again everything from faceless cartoon styles to more intricate painting Styles some are even watercolor images but when you look at this you'll notice that a lot of these have the bestseller and popular now badge on them meaning that these are
consistently selling really well here's one that's highly in demand it says 93 people have bought this in the last 20 24 hours it is marked down on sale right now to $4.95 but when we analyze the listing we can see that it has an average amount of monthly sales of 466 so when we multiply that by the sale amount we get an average monthly Revenue just for this listing of $236 now like I mentioned at the beginning of this video eight out of nine of these digital product ideas can become passive this is the one
that is a little bit more active because like I said you're going to have to be creating each one of these customized to the buyer but if you're willing to put in a little bit of more active work and learn how to use a program like Photoshop to do this with some simple Photoshop actions this is definitely a product type that has been and will continue to be super high in demand especially around gifting and holiday seasons so there you go friend I hope that was helpful don't forget to click the links below to try
