What is a Digital Product

A digital product is an online asset that customers purchase and download to fulfill a need or want, similar to buying a physical product from Amazon. Examples include planners, templates, ebooks, PDF guides, courses, recipe books, and games. The key to success with digital products is providing value to customers, offering insights through entertainment, education, or other means. Successful digital products always provide some form of value.

Choosing Your Digtial Product

Selecting the right digital product is not a one-size-fits-all approach; it depends on individual skills and interests. Viewers are advised to create a list of their hobbies, skills, and interests to identify potential digital product ideas. For example, a single mom could create a PDF guide with parenting tips, while someone skilled in cooking could create a recipe book. Those with high-level knowledge in a subject could create an online course. The profitability of digital products can vary, with online courses generally being more lucrative than recipe books.

Product Creation

To create a digital product, particularly for beginners, the video suggests starting with a PDF guide or ebook due to their simplicity and quick creation time. Canva is recommended as the platform for creating these products, described as a simplified version of Photoshop tailored for beginners. Canva is free to use and offers a variety of templates for ebooks. Users can search for A4 ebook templates and customize them to fit their chosen topic. The video also offers a free, ready-made PDF guide on short-form content creation that viewers can download and sell. To make the ebook unique, users should modify the text, font, and colors. Instructions are provided on how to change the images, fonts, and color schemes within Canva. Once the ebook is edited, it should be downloaded as a PDF. The video also explains how to create a mockup of the digital product using Canva's lay flat mockup templates to enhance its visual appeal for marketing purposes.

Setting Up Shop

After creating a digital product, the next step is to set up an online store to market and sell the product. The video emphasizes the importance of having full control over the platform by owning a website. It addresses concerns about website building by introducing Hostinger, a platform that uses artificial intelligence to create a website in under 5 minutes. Hostinger is used by many successful marketers and digital product sellers. AI simplifies the process by handling coding and technical aspects, allowing users to focus on marketing and sales. The video provides a link for an exclusive deal on Hostinger, highlighting that sellers retain 100% of their sales without splitting profits with the platform. Hostinger offers two packages: Premium Website Builder and Business Website Builder. The Business Website Builder includes AI tools like an AI website builder, image generator, and writer similar to ChatGPT. The video guides viewers through the sign-up process, including selecting a plan, filling out information, and applying a coupon code for an additional discount. Once the account is set up, users can claim a free domain and use the AI to create their online store. The AI-powered website builder requires users to input essential details about their business, such as brand name, website type, and a detailed description, to generate a customized website. The AI creates a functional website with navigation, headings, and relevant images in under a minute. Users can further customize the site by editing colors, fonts, and content using the website builder's drag-and-drop interface. The video also demonstrates how to add new pages, such as an about me section, and how to manage the online store by editing product templates and adding their own digital products.

AI Automation

The video explains how to use Hostinger's website builder, emphasizing the importance of the site checklist to ensure a clean and effective website. Users can adjust website styles, such as colors and fonts, to match their brand. The drag-and-drop interface allows for easy rearrangement of elements. New elements like images and text can be added to different sections. The video also covers how to change titles and add new pages like an "About Me" section. The main focus is on the online store, where users can manage and edit product listings.

Free Traffic

The video transitions to marketing the online store and generating sales. It highlights that even those without a large social media following can succeed. Pinterest is recommended as a free traffic source, with its millions of active users seeking ideas and inspiration. The video demonstrates how to create a basic image on Canva with a description and a link back to the website. Consistency and the use of relevant hashtags and keywords are crucial for reaching the target audience. For those comfortable showing their face, creating short-form content on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube is highly recommended. This approach can lead to significant business growth. The video also mentions that faceless marketing, using text and images, can still be effective on TikTok.

Keys To Success

The video emphasizes the importance of sticking to one niche to avoid confusing potential customers and to help the algorithm target the right audience. Providing value through high-quality content is essential for attracting engagement and driving sales. Free platforms can generate thousands of views if users are willing to put in the work and stay consistent.

9:13 elements from here you'll be able to search for different images that you can replace and put at the front of your cover right so you can see I've typed in content creation at the top here and CA has provided different photos that we can use for 100% free for the front cover of this PDF so what you want to do is just scroll through this list right here and once you find an image that relates to the short form guide you can just literally drag and drop it right over to the front of the page and just like that you made a small alteration to this guide the next thing that you guys want to do is actually change the font and you can change the text up a little bit it's completely up to you but in order to change a font you just click on this middle section right here and then you click the drop down menu and you'll see the different types of fonts that you have to choose from what's great about Cana is that they have hundreds of

10:00 different fonts that you can choose some also so you can just have a look through the list and just alter it to make it look unique that's the main thing we want to make this look as unique as possible so we're not all out here creating the same ebook and selling it to people online CU there will be some discrepencies and some conflict when we're doing that the next thing right here that we can do is actually click on the design section then we can navigate over to Styles and what this is going to do is going to change the overall color scheme of the book so as I scroll through here you you can see there's like a blue beige color scheme going on if we click over here you can see that there's different colors that we can choose from so color palettes that we can choose from so you can see I've changed it to Brown and you can see there's more colors that show up right here this is what you want to do just change up the color scheme even if you

10:47 want as well you can change up the background images of each chapter so and just ultimately just go through this book and make these small alterations to make sure that your book is original that's the main thing I'm trying to drive home here but other than that you don't even have to touch the content the content is good it's all done for you your only job is to just edit the colors and the text once you're done editing the ebook what you want to do is go over to the top right corner and then you're going to download it as a PDF so we're going to click right here PDF standard and all pages should be selected and then you're going to click download and then from here the PDF is going to be saved directly onto your computer the next thing that we want to do here before we move into the next setep where I show you how to set up your online store is to create a mockup for your

11:33 digital product so a mockup is essentially what is going to be shown on your social media or your website when people are looking to purchase your digital product right so we want to make this look as a peeling as possible so that people can get an understanding of what they're buying and overall show them a good imagery of what they're going to get once they purchased your digital product so in order to do that let's download the first page of this ebook so we're going to click on share once again and then we're going to hit download and then we going to save this as a PNG and then we're going to select page one and then this should also save to your computer once that's completed you want to go back over to the homepage of canva and then you're going to Simply type in lay flat mockups and as you can see once you type that in you have all

12:19 of the different mockups that you can use for your digital products right so you just want to take your time look through this as this is going to be very important this is going to be the first image that your customers see so it needs to look bright it needs to be vibrant it needs to have good text it needs to have some good fonts on it and everything like that as this is going to be one of your main marketing materials so let me just have a look through here to see what's a good one that I can use so here's a good one that I found that I'm going to use for this example once you found your one you just need to click customize this template and then from here it's pretty simple and easy what we're going to do is just drag our our covero image in replacement for the images that already on this page so just like that you can see I've set up my mockup image for the digital product that we're selling here if you want you

13:06 can go in and also change the text and change the colors of this mockup as well this is just an example to show you guys how this is done but once you have your mockup ready and you've edited your ebook that I've given you by the way that's going to be down in the link in the description you're ready to go into the next step which is where I'm going to show you most importantly how to set up your online store so now that we have our digital product created from scratch whether you created it from scratch or you use the template that I gave you you're now ready to put this product out on the market and start generating sales for yourselves and the way how we're going to do that today is by putting it onto an online store we don't just want to go on Google and find any old platform that's going to host our product we want something that we have full control over we need to own our

13:52 very own website so that we can control all of the traffic we can do all of the marketing tips and tricks that I'm going to show you towards the end of this video and the best way to do that is by having your own website right and I know some of you guys might be thinking wait hold on why do I need my own website that might be a little bit too much for me I've never built a website myself but don't worry because today I'm going to show you how you can use the power of artificial intelligence to create a website in less than 5 minutes and this website is going to be the heart of your business where you can direct customers in at any point and they can purchase your digital products now the platform that's going to enable you to use AI to create this website is the one that you can see on the screen right now and that is hosting a lot of successful marketers

21:35 right here along with a picture that relates to the business and as I scroll down right here it's added some different sections that are easy to read easy to navigate through and the website looks pretty clean to me and this is exactly what it's going to do once you fill out the information in the previous page it's going to create a fully functioning website this is not the final website that we're going to have if you're happy with it of course you can leave it like this but this is just giving you a nice space to start the AI is like a personal assistant that's just getting everything together for you but you want to go in and add the final little touches which I'm going to show you how to do in the rest of this video but besides that you're going to get a great starting website that you didn't need to code you didn't need to do JavaScript you didn't need to hire a web designer and pay thousands of dollars

22:22 but you've got a nice space to start with so what you want to do right now is go to the top section and then you're going to click on Ed edit so now we're in the back end of the website builder and you can see we have a lot more control over the site the main thing that you guys want to do is firstly look at the site checkout list right this is basically going to be a checklist that you need to run through in order to get your website to a stage where we can release it to the public and have our digital products on it's all optional of course but this is what hostinger's website builder recommends you go through in order to have your website looking as clean as possible I'm going to skip for right now as I'm going to show you a few different things that you can do right off the bat to get your website looking good firstly what we can do is go over to the left hand side here and then we can click on website Styles

23:09 what this section is going to do is going to allow you to manipulate the different colors that you want on your site right so if you wanted to change this button from Blue to a different color let's say for example you just select this section and you wanted a different color maybe like a green or a yellow we can change it right here and then you just click accept just like that the button has changed right what you can do is just scroll through your website and just change out different colors so matches your brand and the theme that you're going for the next thing that you can change right here is the font so if you wasn't feeling the font on this site you can just go through here similar to how it was on canva this is very simple and easy you can just change the font and then you can click reset you'll see that the font will change all through your website right next thing I noticed right here is

26:13 the flow of things what I want you to do is take your time to edit each of these pages so the homepage the about page any other pages that you want to add to your website just use these tips that I've given you to just slowly go through and optimize your website just the where you like it right now most importantly what I want to show you guys right now is the online store as this is where the customers are going to go to actually purchase your digital product from so what we want to do right here we click on the online store on the left hand side you can see that we have a few products that are actually on the page already so if I click onto them so you can see how it looks you can see we have a product here that's $99 another one that is around $1 so wizdom speaks online course so it's basically giv us some examples some templates of how our products are going

26:59 to look right what you want to do is actually delete these after you add your own product until you have more products that you can add to your store so what we're going to do is edit this first product template and add in our own digital product that we created on CA earlier so just hit the settings at the side right here then we want to click on edit product okay so now that we have everything set up meaning that we have everything for our digital product and we now have our online store now it's actually time to Market our online store and start generating sales right and in order to do this we need to do some marketing you know the people the customers out there that are going to purchase our products aren't just going to you know flock into our store without us you know letting them know so we need to find ways of getting eyballs onto our stores so we can convert those people into paying customers and just a quick

27:46 reminder you don't have to be a big influencer you don't need to have hundreds of thousands of followers to make money with this strategy we're in the era right now where you can even be a micro influencer or someone with a small amount of followers and still make a lot of money right even if you have zero followers this is not a make or break as I'm going to show you multiple different ways you can go ahead and market your online store to drive sales into your business so let's say for instance you're in a position where you're a complete beginner with zero followers right one of the main ways I recommend you driving traffic over to your online store is via Pinterest Pinterest is an amazing free traffic website that has hundreds of thousands of active users that are constantly on their platform you know utilizing their

28:32 search engines to get ideas for whatever it is they're trying to create whether it's home decor whether it's food recipes whether it's strategies to grow their businesses they're always on this platform looking for good ideas and this is where you can position your business to get lots of free traffic and lots of sale for your business right as you can see on the screen right now this is an example post I've used to promote the offer that I'm selling so you can see is just a very basic image that I created on canva it's got a nice little description to it and it's linking back to my website right so once I go ahead and post this I have the chance of reaching hundreds of thousands of people of course it's not going to happen overnight there needs to be some consistency but there's still a high chance of you reaching a good amount of

29:19 people and then once they see your post on Pinter interest they click onto that post it will take them back over to the online store where they'll be able ble to make a purchase and the beauty of Pinterest is that this platform is mainly image based you don't need to show your face online in order to drive traffic and make sales in your business you can simply use platforms like canva to create some good images and some good marketing materials to drive traffic over to your business which I think is perfect for a beginner this should easily be enough to get you your first couple of sales with your digital marketing business remember that the key of Pinterest is to use the right hashtag use the right keywords in the description and in the tag section so that you can reach your target audience

30:04 and on top of that you have to post consistently I recommend anywhere from 5 to six pins every single week in order to maximize the amount of traffic that's coming to your page there's people all over the Internet doing this for completely free they're getting hundreds of thousands of monthly views millions of monthly views and they're not making any money so now that you have this knowledge make sure that you're linking your post directly back over to your website so that you can start making money straight away if you're someone that is a little bit more advanced and you're not too worried about showing your face on internet you're not worried about creating a YouTube or a Tik Tok then I highly recommend you create short form content this is what enabled me at the beginning to go from $1,000 a month

30:50 to like $5,000 10,000 plus when I got on camera and showed my face and start making videos this is when and I saw a real explosion in my business and this is what some of the biggest marketers are doing online they're showing their face whether it's on Tik Tok Instagram YouTube and they're providing values to the users on this platform and in turn the users check out their Link in their description and they buy their products so if you're someone that wants to maximize the amount of sales you want to go beyond the 5,000 $10,000 a month Mark then I highly recommend you start making short form content the these videos tend to go viral on multiple different platforms and the more eyeballs you can get on your videos the more people you can get to convert over onto your

31:36 website and purchase your digital products and another life hack with the Tik Tok strategy and the short form content strategy is that you also don't even need to show your face with this strategy as well cuz if you look at this content Creator's page right now I believe her name is Kaye May hopefully I'm saying the name right you can see that on their Tik Tok they're using faceless marketing they're not showing their face at all it's got other videos where it's just text and images and stuff like that and it's still getting a decent amount of views right and all of this is just funing back over to the link in the description and this is what you want to do if you're a someone that's shy you can use this strategy or you can use the pincher strategy but if you want the most amount of sales as I said you should really consider Shing

32:22 your face online to drive the maximum amount of traffic to your business and now another tip that I want to give you guys when it comes to getting sales in your digital marketing business is make sure that you're sticking to one Niche you don't want people to come over your page and get confused as to what exactly you're selling and what your brand is all about you should just stick in one knee so if you're selling stuff to do with recipes and cooking just post content about recipes and cooking if you're selling stuff to do with Home Improvement or maybe you're doing an online course or a PDF about how to do content whatever it is is you want to stick with one niche as this is just going to in turn help the algorithm find the exact audience that's interested in your products and it will make it more easy for you to make sales this way so

33:09 when you're doing this marke and make sure you just stick with one Niche trust me when I say this this one tip can really change the progress of your business in the long term and remember one of the key things I said always provide value these people that you're seeing on Tik Tok and Instagram and Pinterest they all provide in some sort of value with their content Marketing in order to get people to click on their links so make sure you take your time with the content and make sure it's the best quality is possible you don't just want to you know rush it and put the content out there without making it available or people simply won't click onto your content or engage on it and you won't get views so remember the key here provide value first and then that's how you will get the sales later on as you can see you can use these free

33:54 platforms to generate thousands of views on your your platform you don't need to go spend thousands on ads you can do this for completely free as long as you're willing to put in the work and stay consistent if you enjoy this video remember to smash that like button take advantage of all the links in my description if you have any comments whatsoever leave them down in the description I'll try my best to reply to as many of you guys as possible with that being said Thank you guys all for watching and I'll see you in the next video
