The Digital Product Hype is Real — But So is the Burnout
Let’s get one thing straight:
Digital products can be amazing.
They scale. They serve. They give you breathing room and income that isn’t chained to a clock.
But they’re not the get-rich-while-you-sleep fairytale people make them out to be.
Creating a digital product isn’t hard.
Creating one that actually sells and doesn’t suck your soul out in the process?
That’s where it gets real.
So What Counts as a Digital Product? (And Which Ones Are Worth It?)
Anything that can be downloaded, streamed, or accessed online without you being there live = digital product.
We’re talking:
Ebooks
Workbooks + journals
Notion or Trello templates
Mini courses
Audio trainings
Masterclass replays
Swipe files + toolkits
The key? Don’t just create “information.” Create transformation—even if it’s small.
Because no one needs another 57-page PDF that goes nowhere. They want results. Fast wins. Clarity. A system. A spark.
Where Most Women Get Stuck
You’ve got the idea. Maybe even the content.
But the actual building, launching, marketing, automating? That’s where it all grinds to a halt.
Why? Because the internet has turned a simple product into a 27-step funnel with 12 upsells and a custom quiz.
Let’s simplify this:
You need a product. A page. A payment link. And a plan to get it seen. That’s it.
We teach this inside The CODE Experience because too many women are sitting on brilliant ideas they’re too overwhelmed to publish.
What to Create First (And What to Skip Until Later)
Start with something small, sharp, and strategic.
Think:
A $9–$27 guide that solves one clear problem
A template bundle that saves hours
A short audio series or workshop with a workbook
What to skip (for now):
Huge courses with 20 modules (they’ll stall your momentum)
Memberships with no clear outcome
Anything that feels like you’re rebuilding your 1:1 offer but charging less for it
📎 Want inspo? Our Beyond Algorithms eBook and System Override worksheet are both low-ticket digital products that convert—and were built in a weekend.
Selling It Without Screaming Into the Void
Digital products don’t sell because you post once and hope.
They sell because they have:
A clear value proposition
A simple sales page (we build ours in Systeme.io)
A nurture sequence or content plan that points people toward it consistently
No need to “launch” if that’s not your vibe. Just publish. Promote. Tweak. Repeat.
And for the love of freedom—automate the delivery.
Systeme.io delivers ours instantly, sends follow-ups, and handles customer access without us lifting a finger.
📎 We use Systeme.io for all our digital products. Want to test it? Here’s our affiliate link. No fluff, just function.
Final Word: It’s Not About Passive Income—It’s About Predictable Impact
You’re not building a dream while sipping cocktails in a hammock.
You’re building assets that serve, scale, and support your freedom.
Digital products aren’t passive. They’re powerful.
When they’re done with strategy, heart, and systems that don’t collapse under pressure.
You’re allowed to profit from your brilliance—without live calls, client calendars, or 17 DMs asking for a discount.
