hello i'm allstate with
austingodbolt.com i'm an affiliate
marketer and internet entrepreneur
who has helped thousands of people
across multiple platforms make passive
income with affiliate marketing and
today i want to help you
alright as i mentioned in this video i'm
going to reveal
five different ways that you can create
and sell digital products
without having a website and at the end
of this video i'm going to show you why
that's a bad idea so the first and
probably the most common
is with etsy now etsy can be a good
opportunity if you're just getting
started
as you can see here on my screen you can
create and sell just about anything on
etsy and you can price it whatever you
want but one of the drawbacks with etsy
is they're going to take a cut and it's
pretty competitive but etsy can be a
very good opportunity
the other cool thing with etsy is
they're telling you what's important if
you look at the top of the web page here
you can see that
printable graduation is popular
graduation quotes
uh positive svgs you could create and
sell
these types of products and make money
back relatively quickly now the cool
thing with etsy is
really easy you just create a store and
then you can create individual products
within the store
and when you scroll about halfway down
in
creating a product it'll ask you if it's
a digital product you click yes you
simply just upload the file
and when people buy they get it
automatically you don't have to do
anything else
you can just walk away and it's very
very easy so the first one
is with etsy the second one is actually
with redbubble and redbubble is very
similar to etsy
where it's a storefront where you create
your own storefront within the
storefront and then you can create
digital products to sell
very easy very simple you can get up and
running with a redbubble account within
a few hours probably 30 minutes if
you're focused on it but it's really
easy
very simple doesn't take a lot of effort
and just like etsy
you can allow your customers to
instantly download their digital
products so
etsy's number one second is redbubble
the third is actually with ebay now ebay
is another very good opportunity to sell
your digital products in fact
i've sold ebooks through ebay ebay can
be kind of finicky when it comes to
selling digital things but it can be
done
you just have to follow and there's a
couple trigger points that you have to
make sure that you are aware of
if you hit those trigger points they're
not going to let you
upload and sell the digital product one
of the drawbacks of ebay is it's
pretty saturated there's a lot of people
on the market
trying to sell something similar it's
going to be like etsy and redbubble
where it's almost a race to the bottom
you're gonna have to charge
lower and lower and lower just to be
competitive but you can sell digital
products on ebay
another good opportunity is actually
with gumroad so what you would do is
you'd create your digital product
and then you would sell it through
gumroad gumroad would take care of all
of the payment processing
and your customers can get it instantly
as you can see
gumroad is very popular and it has made
a lot of money for a lot of people
but gumroad can be done you just create
an account you can start for free but
eventually you will have to pay some
money but it's really easy
you can type in like ebook for example
and get up and running that way there
are tons of ebooks on this platform
where you can buy it um this is actually
done with canva you can tell here
and you can actually name your price
some of these books are
nine dollars and and or 99 cents this
book right here is 149 and it actually
looks like it's a bundle
but creating your product and then
listing it over on gumroad is very
easy all right so we have etsy redbubble
ebay gumroad and then our fifth one is
sell five now
again very much like etsy and redbubble
they're going to have a marketplace
where you can
sell your stuff it's very easy very
simple to get into
we can take a look at the pricing it
starts at 29
a month and then it goes up to 129 you
get a ton of features
but there's a lot of opportunity here if
we click on
features here you can see there's a lot
of stuff that you can do
when you create and sell your digital
products they take care of the payment
you can integrate it with a ton of stuff
there's a lot of options this can be a
good opportunity
so we've got etsy we've got redbubble
we've got ebay we've got gumroad and
then we have
selfie now i think that
using these methods is a bad idea there
are a few reasons why
i think selling on a website like etsy's
really bad idea number one
it's a race to the bottom i've mentioned
this a few times before
you put in a lot of energy and effort
and time
and somebody comes behind you and sells
the exact same thing
for 1.99 or 4.43
so now you've got to readjust your
pricing and hope that you can get found
it's a search engine so you've got a
no keyword optimization and search
engine optimization you've got to know
those things
also you don't get access to your
customers information
one of the biggest problems that i have
with these sites is you don't know
anything about your customer
and the reason why you want to know your
customer you want to have your customers
information like name and email address
is so that you can follow up with them
with additional products let's say
they're interested in this digital
planner
for 1.99 you sell them the digital
planner
but now more importantly you have their
name and their email address so that you
can sell them
additional products if we know they're
interested
in organization and planning their life
maybe we can sell them a 500
course on planning an organization maybe
we can sell them
a physical planner or you know some of
these accessories
a special pen maybe we can bundle it
with an
ipad or an e-reader but selling products
with etsy doesn't let us have that
opportunity
what i recommend that you do yourself
and and this is a little bit cheating
people are gonna say this isn't a
website this is a sales funnel but a
sales funnel is a website
what i recommend that you do and and
this is my website
10daybusinessblueprint.com
i've created this so that i can sell
directly to people
another issue with etsy is
etsy takes a cut of whatever it is that
you make so again if you're selling this
for four dollars and 43 cents
you're not walking away with 4.43 cents
you might be walking away with 3.99 for
example
why not sell it yourself and the only
fees that you have to worry about
are your payment processing through
stripe and then you still get your
customers email address right now i have
a database of people that i know that
are interested in
digital products now i can potentially
sell them
other things i can sell them coaching i
can sell them a
course i can sell them maybe someone
else's course with affiliate marketing i
can sell them more digital products
and this is how you go from just being a
seller being a commodity where you're
kind of like a good that's being traded
into an actual business owner
and that's the goal of everyone is to
eventually own your own business
and this is the way to do it not using a
website like etsy
because they're stealing money from you
you're selling this stuff for 1.99
it's worth more than 1.99 sure if you
sell a thousand of them you'll break
even on whatever you
the time or money that you paid for it
but you are losing out on a
ton of money on the back end for example
on this 10 day business blueprint
i have this book for five dollars and
then there are other upsells that i
include
that are going to add additional value
for example an audiobook so people can
listen to this
book on their way to work and then i've
got done for you
sales funnel so the only thing they need
to do is import the sales funnel
into their account and then they can get
up and running faster
you can then sell this you can take this
directly to facebook ads or youtube ads
or even add this to your your your
youtube channel and then you can make
even more money instead of making other
people rich
like the owner and ceo and board members
of
etsy so what i recommend that you do is
and you know people are going to say
this isn't a website
technically it is but you know we don't
want to get into semantics but
um instead of focusing on doing
etsy or redbubble or gum road or ebay
take a day take a weekend create your
own
website and this is using click funnels
you don't have to use click funnels i
like click funnels
you can use kartra kajabi
um there's a ton of web page builders
out there that you can you can even use
a wordpress website
but i i urge you to do this because at
the end of the day you're going to make
more money
you're going to make more money on the
front end and on the back end when you
sell this directly to
consumers with facebook ads you can
break even or make money on the front
end
and then you can sell them affiliate
products on the back end or you can ask
your customers
hey what else do you need they tell you
what they need you create
it and then you can sell it to them
there is much more opportunity
to use something like this this is
called a web page builder
or a website than using etsy etsy
is stealing from you if you use etsy now
