A Strong Case for Creating Digital Products

The goal for every creator is to develop a business model that allows for time and space to really enjoy life. And yes, there are many ways to get there, but one option that’s accessible for just about anyone is creating and selling digital products. 

Digital products are things like ebooks, templates, webinars, online courses, and printable art, to name a few, and they offer distinct advantages over selling physical goods. Beyond not worrying about shipping costs, packaging, and storage space, digital products can be created once and sold repeatedly, plus many e-commerce platforms will host them at no additional cost to you. Basically, they revolutionize the income potential for online creators.

Wondering where to start? Here are 15 examples of profitable digital products you can make, along with examples from creators who are already seeing a healthy return on their investment.
