๐ Time saved: Over 11 minutes of video condensed into a detailed breakdown.
๐ฏ What you achieve: Learn five outdated digital products that donโt sell anymore and how to create profitable digital products that people actually want.
๐ฅ Why Certain Digital Products Donโt Sell Anymore
โ The digital product market is saturated โ Basic, low-value products get lost.
โ People buy solutions, not just content โ If your product doesnโt solve a specific problem, it wonโt sell.
โ Customers expect more value โ AI makes it easy to create products, so generic templates and vague ideas no longer work.
๐ Key Lesson: To succeed, your digital product must solve a real, painful problem.
๐ Digital Product #1: Generic Journals Without a Specific Outcome
โ Why they fail: The market is oversaturated with basic journals.
โ Your job: Create a journal that solves a clear problem.
๐ก How to Make a Journal That Sells:
โ๏ธ Identify a real pain point โ Anxiety relief, productivity, weight loss tracking, etc.
โ๏ธ Make it unique โ Add prompts, habit tracking, or a guided system.
โ๏ธ Market it with a transformation โ Show people how it will change their lives.
๐ Example: Instead of a โDaily Journal,โ create a โ90-Day Anxiety Relief Journal.โ
๐ Digital Product #2: Vague Self-Improvement Guides
โ Why they fail: โLive a life you loveโ is too broadโpeople need specific solutions.
โ Your job: Focus on a clear outcome people want to achieve.
๐ก How to Pick a Profitable Self-Improvement Niche:
โ๏ธ Break down problems into clear categories โ Health, wealth, or relationships.
โ๏ธ Go deeper into specifics โ Instead of โFind Happiness,โ teach โHow to Reduce Stress for Entrepreneurs.โ
โ๏ธ Solve a real problem โ No one buys motivation; they buy solutions.
๐ Example: A guide called โHow to Find Your Passionโ wonโt sell, but โHow to Quit Your 9-5 & Make Money from a Hobbyโ will.
๐ Digital Product #3: Basic, Generic Templates
โ Why they fail: People can make these themselves or find them for free.
โ Your job: Create templates that actually solve a business problem.
๐ก How to Make Money with Digital Templates:
โ๏ธ Niche down โ Instead of โInstagram templates,โ sell โInstagram Templates for Wedding Photographers.โ
โ๏ธ Add guidance โ Show users how to use the templates effectively.
โ๏ธ Solve a real pain point โ Help businesses save time or make money.
๐ Example: A template pack just for real estate agents will sell better than generic Canva templates.
๐ Digital Product #4: Paid Communities Without a Shared Goal
โ Why they fail: People wonโt pay just to be in a random community.
โ Your job: Give members a clear, valuable goal to achieve.
๐ก How to Build a Paid Community That Sells:
โ๏ธ Set a clear objective โ โThis community helps you grow to 100K YouTube subscribers.โ
โ๏ธ Provide structure โ Weekly calls, accountability, step-by-step guidance.
โ๏ธ Create high engagement โ People should feel like theyโre getting real value.
๐ Example: A paid community for โWomen in Businessโ is too broadโbut โA Mastermind for Female Coaches Scaling to $10K/Monthโ is highly valuable.
๐ Digital Product #5: Stock Photos & Videos Without a Niche
โ Why they fail: There are millions of free stock images and videos available.
โ Your job: Create niche-specific, high-value stock media that businesses actually need.
๐ก How to Sell Stock Photos & Videos Profitably:
โ๏ธ Target a specific industry โ For example, โLuxury Airbnb stock photos.โ
โ๏ธ Solve a real business need โ Market your images/videos for social media branding.
โ๏ธ Offer exclusive rights โ Sell premium, non-generic collections.
๐ Example: Instead of โgeneral business stock photos,โ sell โBranding Images for Female Coaches.โ
