Write Better, Build Smarter & Scale Faster

Welcome to the Write • Build • Scale Sunday Digest, where we help you write better, build your audience, and scale your income through quick tips and actionable resources.

This week, we’re focusing on how you can use digital products—especially mini-courses—to grow your impact and income.


The 10 Biggest Roadblocks

If you've been creating content for a while but haven't launched any digital products yet, it's probably not because you're lazy.

It’s not because you don’t have value to share.

And it’s definitely not because you’re not “expert enough.”

The real reason?

You've hit one of the 10 common roadblocks that hold creators back all the time.

1️⃣ “I don’t know what to teach.” You might think you need a revolutionary idea for your first digital product, but that's not true. The most profitable mini-courses solve one simple problem. (We’ll help you find yours.)

2️⃣ “I don’t have a big audience.” Good news: You don’t need thousands of followers to start earning through digital products—just a proven strategy to attract buyers.

3️⃣ “I’m not tech-savvy.” Creating a mini-course is easier than ever right now. We’ll show you simple, no-fuss tools to record, host, and sell your course—no headaches.

4️⃣ “I don’t have time.” If you can spare 1–2 hours a day, you can launch your mini-course in the next 14 days. We’ll show you how.

5️⃣ “I don’t know how to price my course.” Should you charge $27? $97? $497? We break down exactly how to price your course so it sells—and feels like a no-brainer to buyers.

6️⃣ “What if nobody buys?” The real fear isn’t launching—it’s launching to crickets. That’s why we teach validation strategies so you’ll know people will buy before you create your products.

7️⃣ “I’ve tried before, and it didn’t work.” Most people fail because they overcomplicate things, pick the wrong topic, or skip the launch plan.

8️⃣ “I need more experience before I can teach.” This is imposter syndrome talking. You don’t need to be an industry guru—you just need to be a few steps ahead of your audience.

9️⃣ “I don’t know how to market my course.” The best sales strategies don't feel awkward. We’ve created plug-and-play templates that will make marketing and selling your products easier than ever before.

🔟 “I don’t know where to start.” This is exactly why we've been busy building a proven roadmap for you.

In just a few days, we're opening the doors to our brand-new program, where we help you build, launch, and sell your profitable mini-course in less than 14 days.

5 Things I Wish I Had Known Before Creating My First Digital Product

I've been creating digital products since 2017, so it's safe to say that I know a thing or two about how to build, launch, and sell them.

Here are 5 lessons I wish I had learned sooner.


Your Course Should Be a Bridge

This should be the only goal of your digital product/online course:

“What is the shortest, most effective path I can build for them?”

That’s your course.

Hey Reader, One of the biggest lies in the online world is that there’s only one way to succeed. Everyone claims that their path, strategy, or method is the only right one.

Hey, my friend! We've replied to dozens of questions about mini-courses lately, but one of them stands out because it came up so often: "What's the #1 thing I need to get right to ensure my mini-course will be successful and profitable?" The truth is, it's not the sales page (although that's definitely important)... It's not the launch emails (even though those are also important)... It's the course topic. The most important step in creating a profitable mini-course is to choose a winning...
