Intro

hey by me coffee crators do you know what a digital product is you might have heard the term thrown around in various creater spaces but not necessarily know what exactly it means how expansive the uses of digital products are or what you personally could do with digital products well today's video aims to clarify those three questions for you starting with what is a digital product fundamentally a digital product is anything electronic you sell as a one-time transaction digital comes from

What is a digital product

the fact it's fully electronic and has no physical form and product comes from the fact it's a one-time transaction as opposed to a subscription or rental or something like that now let's talk about how people are using digital products to earn extra income and also provide value to their audiences online one important myth to address before that though is that digital products are inherently a worse deal than physical products it may be reasonable to think that at first because you can see the value of something physical when you actually hold and feel it but at the same time think about movies music video games all things that used to be sold on actual physical storage devices that have moved to digital and we definitely wouldn't sit here and say that all three of those products have become less useful over time due to that transition on the contrary you'd actually say the transition to digital products benefited both the consumer and the producer for the consumer you get instant access after purchasing lower prices and less complicated setup and for the producer

The benefits of digital products

or seller there's a much lower cost of actually creating the product and distributing it so these are all principles to keep in mind to understand the true value of digital product but remember people buy music movies video games because they actually bring value to their lives so it's important when you set out to offer digital products to people to really focus on things that actually improve someone's work or play but let's go ahead and expand on that one example of digital products you could sell is literature

get a bit more technical for people in Creative Fields the software used will often use things called presets these are files that can be imported into the software to bring in a bunch of settings there's presets for photo editing in Lightroom presets for audio editing in logic pro and presets for video editing in Premier Pro so if you were a photographer looking to offer resources that help your audience edit like you Lightroom presets might be your first choice you could develop presets for each type of photo edit look you produce and then export all those put them into a zip file and offered for sale and if you worked with vocal mixes in music you could offer presets for the mixing plugins in your software to help your audience get their mixes to sound like yours an example buy me a coffee crater selling Lightroom presets is Laura BC taking a look at her page here she offers a Moonlight and orange preset a Highlands preset and a moody film preset real quick and last but definitely not least let's cover the universal product
