Let’s talk digital products.

Published 10 months ago • 1 min read

Hey Reader,

If you’re only trading time for money, you’ll eventually hit a ceiling.

Tutoring, coaching, workshops, consulting…these are all awesome businesses. But they all depend on you showing up...you giving your time.

A digital product doesn’t.

A good digital product:

  • Solves a real problem your audience has
  • Works while you sleep (or teach…or nap…or spend time with your family...etc)
  • Helps you serve more people with less burnout

This doesn’t mean you need a full-blown course or 57-page workbook. You can start with something super simple. (We’ll talk about that in another email.)

For now, I just want you to think about something you get asked a lot, explain over and over, or consistent receive requests to share.
​

That’s a signal there’s demand. That it could be packaged. That it could become your first product.

We’re going to break this down step-by-step over the next few weeks. I’ll keep each piece short, actionable, and beginner-friendly. But please never hesitate if you don't want to wait. Just hit 'reply' and let me know.

For now, just know:
✅ You don’t need a big audience
✅ You don’t need to be tech-savvy
✅ You do need to start thinking like the business owner you already are

I'll see you next week.

~ Jeff

I appreciate you.

Hey Reader, There are a lot of metrics we can track within our businesses. Followers, subscribers, likes, shares, opens, clicks, ROI, ROAS, downloads, plays, purchases, abandoned carts, unsubscribes, etc, etc, etc... But, we're working through the HARMONY framework right now, and HARMONY is focused on building a business that gives us the life we want. So the metrics I want you to figure out this week are the core metrics that will help you monitor whether the business you're building is...

Hey Reader, We've spent the last few weeks talking about HARMONY, the framework I've been developing to help us ask and answer the question, "Does the business I'm building actually fit into the life I want to live?" We've talked about Happiness. We've talked about Alignment. Today I want to talk about something that can make some people a little uncomfortable. I want to talk about money. More specifically, I want to talk about the R in HARMONY: Revenue. I think there's a strange thing that...

Hey Reader, Over the last couple weeks, I've been sharing something I've been working on called HARMONY. It's a framework meant to help us determine if the business we're building actually fits into the life we want to live. Last week, we talked about the H: Happiness. This week, we're moving to the A: Alignment. With Happiness, we asked ourselves, "Do I want more of what this business brings me?" With alignment, we're going to ask "Does this business actually fit the life I want?" The...
