What you'll learn

Key ideas in Making Your Own Digital Products

  • Beginners are often overwhelmed by too much information
  • A micro-problem is narrow enough to solve with a single resource
  • One-page products promise a faster 'time-to-win'
  • The problem must have a high 'annoyance' or 'time-sink' factor
  • Why beginners prefer one-page products over large courses
  • Identifying a micro-problem worth paying for
  • Value is measured by the time saved for the buyer
  • Efficiency is more valuable than volume in digital goods
  • Checklists provide a sequence of actions
  • Templates provide a fill-in-the-blank starting point
  • Calculators/Charts help users make a choice
  • The three most common categories of one-page digital goods
  • Identify the single desired outcome first
  • Remove any theory that doesn't lead to immediate action
  • The value of time-saving vs. content volume
  • Format for 'scannability' so the user can start in seconds
