If I had to start all over again in 2025—no followers, no products, no fancy tools—this is exactly what I’d do to launch a profitable digital product business from scratch.
And before you start doubting yourself, let me say this: You do not need to be techy, popular, or have it all figured out. You just need a plan, some grit, and a digital BFF who’s been through it (that’s me 👋🏽). So let’s break it down, step-by-step.
If you want the full roadmap with fill-in-the-blank clarity, don’t forget to grab the Rags to Riches Workbook. It’s the guide I wish I had when I was starting out.
Step 1: Get Clear on What You’re Good At
Start with your skills, passions, and life experiences. What do people come to you for? What do you love talking about?
→ This is where your money-making magic lives.
📌 Inside the Rags to Riches Workbook:
You’ll find a guided skills assessment + idea generator to help you uncover your zone of genius. Grab it here to start building from what you already know.
Step 2: Pick Your Digital Product Type
Not all products are created equal. Start with something simple but valuable, like:
-
E-books
-
Checklists or guides
-
Canva templates
-
Journals or planners
-
Courses or workshops
Choose based on what fits your life right now—no need to overcomplicate it.
✨ Tip: Selling one simple product can open the door to a full product suite later.
Step 3: Choose Your Business Name
You don’t need to stress over this, sis. Use a name that’s clear, catchy, or meaningful to you. Don’t let “perfect name paralysis” slow you down.
💡 Workbook Bonus: A whole page of naming tips + a brainstorm worksheet to help you choose a name in 10 minutes or less.
Step 4: Build Your Brand Vibe
Choose your color palette, fonts, and logo so you can start showing up with a consistent look & feel. People remember brands that feel like a vibe.
Get inspiration from:
-
Color Hunt for free palettes + hex codes

👉 Pro tip: Always save a few logo variations—transparent, square, and black & white.
Step 5: Create Your First Product
This is where the magic happens! Start by outlining your content, then build it in Canva, Google Docs, or any tool you’re comfy with.
✅ Use a free Canva account to create beautiful, professional-looking products
✅ Focus on solving one specific problem for your ideal customer
✅ Add clear calls-to-action, helpful visuals, and real value
The Rags to Riches Workbook walks you through exactly how to plan, design, and price your product—even if you’ve never done this before.
Step 6: List It Online
Use platforms like:
-
Shopify
-
Etsy
-
Stan Store
-
Payhip
-
Your own website
Create a high-converting product description (don't worry—the workbook gives you tips + a plug-and-play template). Make sure it’s clear, benefit-focused, and searchable.
Step 7: Market with Confidence (Even If You’re Just Starting)
Social media is your free launch party. Use platforms like Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, Threads, and Facebook to:
-
Share the journey
-
Educate your audience
-
Show the value of your product
-
Post testimonials and behind-the-scenes
✨ Done-for-you content = your new BFF.
Use the DFY posts from the workbook and bonuses to hit the ground running.
