You’re probably already sitting on a ton of products you can sell. This affordable guide can help you find Your Content Goldmine.
Are you a Hermit Hustler? Great post from The Old Grey Thinker.
You know what failed spectacularly for me?
Creating generic products based on whatever was trending online. Courses about stuff I knew nothing about. PDFs copying what everyone else was doing.
Then I realized something stupid-simple: the processes I used every day from my time as a project manager and trainer? Those were the actual product.
How I put together a newsletter. How I build a simple website. How I budget. Basic stuff I took for granted because I’d mastered it.
Turns out, what feels obvious to you is exactly what someone else is struggling with right now.
Here’s the system:
Document the processes you already use. The ones you don’t even think about anymore. Your morning content routine. Your client onboarding checklist. Your editing workflow.
Write it down like you’re explaining it to someone over coffee. Step one, step two, why this matters, what to avoid.
That documentation? It’s your next product. A PDF guide. A mini-course. A template library.
Every product I sell now comes from a process I actually use.
Not trending topics. Not guru advice. Just the systems that make my work sustainable.
The simpler the process, the more valuable it usually is. People don’t need complexity. They need clarity.
What process do you run every week that you could document in the next hour? That’s your next product.
