Sis, you don’t need more “tips”; you need a proven strategy to net at least 3K after covering your overhead. When it comes to choosing where to house your expertise, stop trying to over-fancify your products. People are not paying for the “sexy” presentation; they are paying for support and implementation. They want the solution to the problem they have, not a revolving door of complicated packages.

Here is the breakdown of the best platforms to sell digital products online using the simple, sophisticated approach we preach.

1. The “Humble Beginnings” Stack: Google Docs, Zoom, and Canva

I have sold my first couple of slots in my programs, and even gotten $8,000 contracts, using nothing but a Google Doc. You can sell digital products online where the curriculum is designed on Canva, recorded on Zoom, and delivered via a shared folder. Don’t allow the “itching” for a fancy landing page or expensive slides to stop you from moving forward.  This stack allows for relaxed creativity because you aren’t fighting a learning curve with a complex system. You extra the value from your research and experience, put it on the paper, and let the audience self-identify with the solution.

2. Thrive Cart: The Professional’s Choice for Automation

When you start getting consistent, I’m going to recommend that you move over to Thrive Cart. It allows you to have “canned” emails and automated sequences so you don’t have to do all that manual work yourself. However, you have to be ready to invest. Thrive Cart is about $500 for the year, and they do not take payments; you have to pay that five right then and there. It is worth it because it streamlines your process and legitimizes you as a professional who doesn’t play about the coin.

3. WordPress and Divi: Total Control Over Your Brand

If you are like some of my students who want to do their own website, WordPress with a design tool like Divi is a strong option. It allows you to build the “bones” of your business and manage your own hosting through services like SiteGround. The key here is to keep your website from being “loud” or full of “noise”. You want a clean, sophisticated look that represents how you want to show up in the world. Use it as a portal to take a client from a social media interest to a discovery call.

4. The Social Media “Portals”: LinkedIn and Instagram

While these aren’t hosting platforms, they are the portals you must optimize to sell digital products online.

• LinkedIn: It is a snoozefest, but there is so much money on there. It is a professional networking platform where outreach is welcomed and effective.
• Instagram: Great for building a personality for your brand. Use it to offer “taster” resources that lead people into your personal world,your email list.

5. Square and Acuity: The Back-End Engines

You have to be ready to make the money, which means having your links together. Square is the goat for sending invoices and protecting your profit with non-refundable deposits. You don’t start on people’s stuff until they pay you.

Pair this with Acuity or Calendly for your scheduling. Your sales process should be about vetting for quality, and a detailed intake form on these platforms helps you see if people are “BS-ing” or if they are for real before you ever hop on a 30-minute call.

The Formula for Consistent Income

Ultimately, the platform matters less than your total obedience to divine guidance. You are not LED if you got the idea from the inspiration of somebody else on social media. You need to be quiet enough to hear Him say, “This is what I want you to use your mouth to say”.When you invite God into your execution plans, peace and prosperity will chase you down.

Whether you use a fancy automated program or a simple Google Doc, your pattern is an altar. Consistently choose the path of excellence and your business will be rewarded.Click this link to join the Profitability Mentorship to learn more.
