Embarking on the journey of selling digital products is akin to stepping into a vast, uncharted territory.

The allure of passive income, financial independence, and the ability to work from anywhere in the world is tantalizing.

After years of reading about others’ successes, I decided to dive in and try it for myself.

Here’s what happened over 90 days.

The Idea Phase: Striking Gold or Chasing Fool’s Gold?

Every great venture starts with an idea. For me, it began with an introspection of my skills and passions. I have always been a tech enthusiast with a knack for simplifying complex concepts. Ebooks, online courses, and printable planners seemed like a good fit.

The excitement of brainstorming was immense. I spent the first week ideating, researching trends on platforms like Gumroad and Etsy, and listing down the pain points of my potential audience. The goal was simple: create something valuable, accessible, and, most importantly, marketable.

Research Insights

  • Ebooks: There was a growing demand for self-help and productivity ebooks. I noticed that readers appreciated concise, actionable content.
