🎯 How to Sell Digital Products on YouTube

Pick something simple that solves a problem.
Examples:
- “YouTube Starter Kit” (Canva thumbnail templates + gear list PDF)

- “Content Calendar Template” (Notion or Excel)
✅ 2. Host It on a Platform
You can use:
- Gumroad (free plan available)
- Payhip
- Shopify (for bigger shops)
- Ko-fi (great for creators with small audiences)

Teach something → then offer your product as the next step.
Examples:
“In this video, I’ll show you how to write killer YouTube titles — and if you want to save time, I’ve linked my Title Formula Template below.”
