This post will go through everything you need to know about how to make a digital product! Even if you have no experience with Etsy or digital products whatsoever, you can still start making them because I walk through every step in this guide. This is the guide I wish I had when I first started, so enjoy!! ❤
1. Make The Digital Product
There are so many different digital products you can make, You can make a google doc, a google sheet, a ClickUp template, a PDF, an image, pretty much anything you can download, you can sell. Below are examples of me making a digital product in a Google Doc format, ClickUp format, and a Google Sheets format.
2. Make the Etsy Listing Photos
Once you’ve finished making your digital product, the next thing to do is make the Etsy listing photos. I use Canva to make all of my marketing material for my digital products, and I walk through exactly how I make mine in the video below.
3. Make the PDF
Once you’ve created your listing photos, the next step is to create the PDF with the links to your digital product. Pretty much, when someone buys your product from Etsy, this is the document they will get in order to access the product. I walk through exactly how I make this document in the video below.
4. Set Up Your Etsy Storefront
Once you’ve made your digital product, made the marketing material, and made the PDF, the next step is to make your Etsy Storefront and start making listings! I walk through exactly how to do this is the video below.
5. Share With Your Audience
Now that your Etsy storefront is all set up and you’ve posted your first listings, the next step is to share your digital products with your audience! What I do is make a YouTube video, make a blog post, and post short videos on my Instagram and TikTok to spread the word. If you have questions about starting a YouTube channel or a blog, I’ll link my “How to Start a YouTube channel” series here, and my “How to Start a Blog” series here. Those playlists cover everything you need to know.
