If you've been spinning your wheels creating products that barely sell, this post is your shortcut. Lisa spent 6 months making 9 different digital products and earned under $300. Then she used one AI prompt—what we call the Product Goldmine Prompt—and did $12,000 in 30 days. This post gives you the exact strategy so you can do it too.

The Real Problem Most Creators Miss

Most creators choose offers based on gut and passion. Winners pick offers based on buyer psychology—problems people are already paying to solve. That's what the Product Goldmine Prompt surfaces in minutes.

The 6 Purchasing Triggers Behind Every Best-Selling Offer

After analyzing 1,000+ launches, every profitable product reliably hits at least one of these six triggers:

• Make money
• Save money
• Save time
• Move toward happiness
• Move away from pain
• Raise social status

Here's the kicker: "Make money" and "Save money" offers can outperform by 400% because they solve expensive problems. That's why a $297 tax-savings guide can outsell cute $27 planners—same effort, different trigger, bigger profit.

The Product Goldmine Prompt (How It Works)

This AI prompt gets you a list of ready-to-buy product ideas in your niche—mapped to triggers, target customers, prices, and hooks—so you're choosing winners before you build.

What you'll get when you run it:

• 20 product ideas in your niche
• The exact problem each solves
• Target customer
• Suggested price point ($27–$497)
• Which trigger(s) the offer hits (prioritizing Make/Save Money)
• Why buyers would pay now
• A one-sentence marketing hook The prompt intentionally avoids oversaturated spaces and focuses on daily frustrations and costly problems—so you're picking offers with real demand.

👉 Freebie: Download the Product Goldmine Prompt to copy/paste and run in ChatGPT. (Link in the resources below.)

10-Minute Workflow to Your First Profitable Offer

1. Run the prompt with your area of expertise (e.g., "for food bloggers," "for Etsy sellers," "for executive assistants," "for realtors").
2. Pick 1–2 ideas that hit Make Money or Save Money (bonus if they also Save Time).
3. Validate the value: choose the idea with the clearest, costly problem (e.g., "save $5,000 on taxes," "book 3 new clients/month," "cut ad spend by 30%").
4. Create the MVP (checklist, template pack, swipe files, calculator, short course, workshop replay). Keep it simple.
5. Launch tonight with MiloTree's free plan (details below).

FAQs

What if my niche feels "small"? Great. Smaller niches = clearer problems = easier to monetize (and charge premium prices). The prompt favors urgent, costly problems over broad topics.

Can I grow an email list too? Yes. Use your freebie on the MiloTree free plan to collect emails and deliver the lead magnet automatically. Then sell your product to new subscribers.

Do I really need to focus on Make/Save Money? If you want faster sales at higher price points, yes. Those triggers consistently outperform because buyers can quantify the ROI.

Struggling to launch your first digital product? If you've got a blog or online audience, selling printables is the simplest way to start earning—without mastering complex tech or spending weeks creating a course.

The Problem

You want to monetize your audience, but…

• You're short on time and design skills
• "Making a full course" feels overwhelming
• You're unsure what will actually sell

The Simple Solution

Start with printables: checklists, planners, activity pages, wall art, party kits—small, useful downloads that solve a specific problem for your audience. Use templates to speed up creation, then launch with a freebie → tripwire funnel to validate and sell quickly.

Why Printables Work Right Now

• Low lift, high leverage: Customize a Canva template (fonts, colors, logo) and publish—often in under an hour.
• Evergreen sales: Once published, they can sell on autopilot for months or years.
• Niche = pricing power: Generic planners might be $3–$7, while niche planners (e.g., Cub Scouts, ADHD students, cosplay) can command $27–$30+.

What Sells: Printable Ideas You Can Launch This Week

1. Niche Planners Social media manager planner, homeschool unit planner, event vendor planner, cosplay build planner. (Niche = higher price.)
2. Checklists & Trackers "Publish a blog post" checklist, budget tracker, habit tracker, kids' sports gear checklist.
3. Kids' Activities (Seasonal wins!) Holiday scavenger hunts, coloring pages, word searches, puzzle packs.
4. Party Printables Theme decor + games (e.g., unicorns, secret agent kits), ready to print and assemble.
5. Wall Art Quote prints, nursery sets, bold geometric scripture posters for a younger aesthetic.

Pro tip: Mine your top 3 blog posts and create a hyper-relevant printable for each. Ask: "What's the reader's very next step after this post?" Build that as a checklist or mini-planner.

Your 60-Minute Launch Plan (Step-by-Step)

00:00–10:00 — Pick the idea Choose a printable tied to one of your highest-traffic posts (or a pain point you solve).

10:00–40:00 — Customize a Template Grab a Canva template (e.g., from Printables and More Club) and make quick edits: brand fonts/colors, logo, page titles, swap graphics. Keep it simple.

40:00–60:00 — Publish with MiloTree (Free)

• Create a freebie (e.g., Easter scavenger hunt) to collect emails.
• Add a tripwire on the thank-you page (e.g., full Easter activity pack).
• MiloTree hosts/delivers both, and your AI-generated sales page is done for you—free plan available.

Funnel That Converts: Freebie → Tripwire

• Lead Magnet (Freebie): One valuable page (checklist, scavenger hunt, mini-planner page).
• Tripwire (Paid): Right after signup, offer the bigger, done-for-them pack (e.g., 20-page activity bundle or full planner) at a limited-time price. This works because the freebie pre-qualifies intent—buyers already want more of the same.

Tools & Tactics That Make It Easy

• Templates in Canva: Perfect for non-designers; update in minutes.
• MiloTree Free Plan:
  • Spin up AI-generated sales and opt-in pages
  • Deliver freebies automatically
  • Add social pop-ups to grow followers
  • Set up tripwires without extra tools (all on the free plan)
• Optional Digital Planning: Many customers still print PDFs, but some use GoodNotes on iPad; simple PDFs work great.

Pricing Hints

• Starters: $5–$9 for checklists/trackers
• Bundles/Activity Packs: $9–$19
• Niche Planners: $27–$30+ (specific beats generic)

Quick Start Checklist

• Pick 1 printable tied to a top post
• Customize a Canva template (fonts, colors, logo)
• Upload to MiloTree (Free) as a paid product
• Create a matching freebie to grow your list
• Add a tripwire offer on the thank-you page
• Promote the opt-in link in your post + sidebar + social bios
• Iterate weekly (new seasonal or niche variation)

Final Takeaway

You don't need a huge course to monetize—you need one helpful printable aligned to a real problem your audience has. Use a template, ship a freebie today, add a small paid upgrade, and let MiloTree handle the delivery and sales page for you. Rinse and repeat, especially for seasonal content. Your first $7 sale is the hardest; the rest compound.

If you're tired of chasing one-off ebook/course sales and want income that stacks every month, a low-key membership is the fastest, simplest path—built with tools you already use (Zoom + Facebook/WhatsApp + your email service).

In my latest Blogger Genius episode, I break down the exact approach (plus 2 copy-and-paste AI prompts) to design, launch, and grow a membership that compounds without burning you out.

TL;DR (Problem → Solution)

Problem: One-off product sales force you to keep launching and promoting to make money and for many people that is hard. Solution: A low-key membership: 2 Zoom sessions/month + lightweight community + simple emails. That's it. Recurring payments keep coming in—even when you're not launching.

Why "Low-Key Memberships" Win in 2025

• Recurring revenue > one-offs: Each new member adds to your baseline.
• Members stay for community, not modules: Overstuffed content = churn. Connection and momentum = retention.
• Zero tech headaches: Use platforms people already check daily (FB/WhatsApp) and Zoom they already know.

Real-world results shared in the episode:

• Weight-loss creator: $300/mo → $2,800/mo with Zoom + private FB group.
• Anxiety coach: $4,100/mo with WhatsApp + biweekly calls.

Your Starter Stack (Keep It Simple)

• Delivery: 2 Zoom sessions/month (Teaching + Q&A).
• Community: Facebook Group or WhatsApp for quick wins + peer support.
• Communication: Your existing email service provider (Mailchimp, MailerLite, Flodesk, ConvertKit).
• Payments & pages: MiloTree—AI sales pages, Stripe checkout, recurring billing. Start free to grow your list; upgrade when you're ready to accept membership payments.

7-Day Launch Plan (No Pre-Recorded Library)

Day 1: Pick your promise (one painful problem you'll help members solve monthly). Day 2: Post your interest waitlist with a freebie (see below). Day 3: Price: $27–$97/mo. Add a 10× annual option (e.g., $47/mo or $470/yr). Day 4: Create an outline for your first month's sessions. Day 5: Open your MiloTree membership (AI sales page + Stripe billing). Day 6: DM warm leads (from FB groups/WhatsApp/LinkedIn) with your waitlist link. Day 7: Host a founders' kickoff (set expectations, celebrate early wins).

Pro tip: Build with your members. Teach what they ask for next. That "fluid plan" keeps content laser-relevant and retention high.

Copy-and-Paste AI Prompts (Use These to Build It Fast)

Prompt #1 — Design your membership "Design a low-key membership for my expertise in [YOUR NICHE]. I want something simple that builds community using free platforms people already know. First, validate my niche using these six purchasing triggers: makes money, saves money, saves time, moves toward happiness, moves away from pain, raises social status (explain which apply). Then create a concept that: meets twice monthly (1 teaching call, 1 Q&A via Zoom); uses Facebook Groups/Discord/WhatsApp for interaction; uses email for schedules/recordings/updates; focuses on implementation (not info overload); builds naturally without tons of pre-created content; develops a supportive community; and is priced $27–$97/mo. Finally, give me the name, core promise, monthly structure, and an engagement + referral strategy."

Prompt #2 — Find your first members "I'm launching the [MEMBERSHIP NAME] from the previous prompt. Give me the 10 best places to attract ideal members with specific strategies. Include communities, social platforms, networking, and partnerships. For each, show how to introduce my offer naturally (not salesy), what value to lead with, and how to start DMs that convert. Also give me 5 content ideas that demonstrate expertise and nudge people toward ongoing support."

Pricing & Positioning (Simple Rules)

• Start $27–$97/mo; add a 10× annual plan to boost cash flow and commitment.
• Promise one result per month (not a giant library).
• Sell outcomes: "From stuck to consistent posting," "From chaos to meal-prep routine," "From anxiety spiral to daily calm."

Retention Playbook (Why Members Stay)

1. Two predictable touchpoints (Teaching + Q&A).
2. Community micro-wins (weekly check-ins, share wins, peer feedback).
3. Fluid curriculum (teach what members ask for next).

If you've created a guide, checklist, or mini-course—but you're not promoting it because you're thinking "Who am I to sell this?"—you're not alone.

The real blocker usually isn't your product; it's confidence and not knowing what to say or where to say it. In this post, I'll show you two quick AI prompts that flip that script and give you the exact words and plan to promote—plus how to publish a ready-to-buy sales page with MiloTree's Free Plan in minutes (no website needed).

The Real Problem: "Who am I to sell this?"

Most creators stall after hitting "publish" because they're afraid to promote. The result? Crickets—not because the product is bad, but because no one heard about it enough times to buy. The fix is a mindset + messaging shift you can trigger with AI in under a minute.

The 60-Second Fix: Copy/Paste These 2 Prompts

Prompt #1 — Confidence & Language

Paste this into your AI tool:

Act as my business coach and mindset mentor. I've created a digital product about [TOPIC] but I feel nervous promoting it. Remind me why my experience has value, explain how selling helps people, write me a confident script for talking about my product, and give me 5 places to share it today. Be encouraging but honest.

This gives you: a quick reframe, a confidence boost, and a short script you can actually use in DMs, posts, and conversations.

Prompt #2 — Distribution Plan (What to Post & Where)

I'm ready to promote with confidence. Give me 10 places to share my product today with exact words for each platform (helpful, not salesy). Include social media, email ideas, and networking conversation starters. Also give me a simple 7-day promotion schedule.

This turns "random posting" into a repeatable weekly cadence that compounds—how you go from your first $100 to your first $1,000.

Make Buying Frictionless: Use MiloTree (Free Plan)

Confidence is great—but people still need a place to buy. Here's the fast path with MiloTree:

1. Set up your product in MiloTree → choose Digital Download.
2. Name, price, and upload your PDF or file (e.g., "Time Management for Busy Moms" at $27).
3. Click Create Sales Page → MiloTree's AI writes your sales copy for you.
4. Get one shareable link you can paste everywhere (social, email, DMs).
5. Payments go to you via Stripe; MiloTree auto-delivers the file to customers.

Minute 12–15: Publish and share your one link in 3 places (Stories, an email P.S., and 5 warm DMs).

• DM Intro: "Hey! I made a quick [result]-focused guide that helps with [pain]. No pressure, but it might save you [time/money]. Want the link?"
• Story CTA: "I turned my process into a simple download. If [outcome] would help, grab it here. I'm answering Qs today!"
• Email P.S.: "P.S. I just released a 1-hour solution for [problem]. Here's the link if that's on your list this week."

If your traffic fell off a cliff after recent Google updates and AI answers, you're not alone—especially if you're a recipe, YMYL (Your Money or Your Life), or niche blogger who used to win with long posts and ads. But SEO isn't dead—it's evolved.

In my latest Blogger Genius Podcast episode, I'm talk to SEO strategist, Steven Schneider, who breaks down exactly how creators can still win in 2025: build visible authority, earn strategic backlinks, improve UX, and shift revenue toward newsletters and products.

The Problem Creators Are Facing in 2025

• AI is answering queries and compressing clicks—brutal for "quick-answer" niches like recipes.
• Google is rewarding authority (E-E-A-T) and punishing thin UX (endless scroll, intrusive ads, fluff).
• Old playbooks (publish more posts, stuff in keywords, hope for ad RPM) don't move the needle.

Solution in a sentence: Treat search like a brand + authority channel, not a traffic lottery. Build proof of expertise on every page, earn real mentions/links, and turn all attention into owned audiences and product revenue.

What's Working Now (According to Steven)

1) Authority > everything

Add clear E-E-A-T signals on every post and key page (not just your About page):

• Real author byline + headshot
• 2–3 credential links (culinary school, certifications, LinkedIn)
• Awards/press mentions (linked)
• Concise author bio block on each post This helps Google and readers trust that a human expert wrote it.

2) Backlinks with intent (no spray-and-pray)

• Guest on podcasts (links in show notes = high-quality, relevant).
• Offer expert quotes to other bloggers/journalists; pitch quick 2–3 sentence tips they can drop in with a link.
• Vary anchor text (brand, URL, topical phrases) and use reciprocal links sparingly.
• Paying for "time" vs "links" is a gray area—be selective and ethical.

3) UX that respects the reader

• Stop the 4,000-word detours; give the answer fast and add optional depth.
• Keep one H1 per page, logical H2/H3s, strong internal linking, and basic schema hygiene.
• Recipes/how-to: lead with the steps; put the story below.

4) BOFU content (not just top-of-funnel)

Steven's agency prioritizes bottom-of-funnel, high-intent topics that convert to leads or sales—because SEO must tie to revenue.

5) Newsletter > ad RPM

Clicks are down, but email still converts. Build a free newsletter, nurture weekly, and sell your own offers (ebooks, mini-courses, templates, memberships).

7-Step Action Plan (Do this in the next 14 days)

1. Add E-E-A-T blocks site-wide Byline, headshot, 2–3 credential links, "Reviewed by" where relevant.
2. Fix on-page structure One H1, clean headings, scannable sections, strong internal links among related posts.
3. Create one "wow" asset (lead magnet or calculator) Examples:
   • Gluten-free flour swap chart (instant, high-value)
   • Meal-prep planner (fillable PDF)
   • ROI/Cost calculator (tools get links + emails)
4. Pitch 10 podcasts in your niche Offer 3 topic angles, a short bio, and a value-packed outline; request a site link in show notes.
5. Run a "quote outreach" sprint Identify 25 relevant posts; email the author a ready-to-paste 2–3 sentence expert tip + your preferred link target (vary anchors).
6. Publish 3 BOFU posts Bottom-of-funnel queries aligned to your product (e.g., "Meal-prep templates," "Gluten-free baking guide PDF," "One-hour blogging audit").
7. Launch or revive your newsletter Weekly format: 1 tip, 1 tool, 1 template. Soft-pitch your product/freebie in each send.

Make This Easy (and Free) with MiloTree

👉 Start free: set up your product or freebie and start collecting subscribers + sales today. (No tech headaches, no credit card required.)

FAQ (Quick Answers)

Is there a way to "write for AI" specifically? Not really. Write for humans with clear structure, show expertise, and earn authority; that is what LLMs and Google both surface.

Should I pay for links? It's a gray area; focus on earning links via value (podcasts, tools, quotes). If compensation is about someone's time to implement, be selective and ethical.

What on-page items still matter? Single H1, logical headings, internal links, page speed, helpful schema. Meta descriptions are less critical but still fine to include.

Your Next 2 Moves (Start Today)

1. Spin up a freebie in MiloTree (cheat sheet, planner, or calculator) and add it site-wide.
2. Pitch one podcast + send one expert quote email before you log off today.

You've got this. The new game rewards real expertise, useful assets, and owned audiences—and that's a much more resilient business.

If you're a coach, blogger, or online entrepreneur struggling to make consistent income from your digital products, you're not alone.

Most creators try to sell one digital product and fail because they're missing a crucial piece of the puzzle: a systematic approach that transforms low-paying customers into high-value clients.

In my latest episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I revealed the exact AI-powered system that successful creators use to build $10,000+ monthly businesses. This isn't theory—it's the proven strategy that MiloTree users like Sarah have used to grow from 200 email subscribers to $11,000 monthly revenue in just six months.

In this post, we'll unpack how to create a digital product ladder, use AI to build your entire system, and leverage MiloTree to handle all the tech without the headache.

Why Most Digital Product Creators Fail (And How to Avoid Their Mistakes)

The biggest mistake creators make is building products they're passionate about instead of solving problems people actually pay to solve. Before you create anything, your digital product idea must pass what I call the "Purchasing Triggers Test."

Your product needs to do at least two of these six things:

1. Make someone money
2. Save them money
3. Save them time
4. Move them toward happiness
5. Move them away from pain
6. Raise their social status

If your idea doesn't hit at least two triggers, don't build it. You'll waste months creating something nobody wants to buy.

Let's test this with a real example: "Time Management for Busy Moms"

• ✅ Save them time? Absolutely
• ✅ Move them toward happiness? Yes (less stress, more family time)
• ✅ Move them away from pain? Yes (overwhelm and guilt)

This passes with flying colors because it hits three triggers.

The Digital Product Ladder System That Creates $10K Months

Here's what successful creators understand that others don't: instead of selling one product, they build a digital product ladder. This system starts with a free valuable resource and guides customers through increasingly valuable solutions at higher price points.

The magic happens when someone who downloads your free guide eventually becomes a $2,000 mastermind member. That's how you reach $10,000 monthly revenue—not by selling a million $10 products.

The 6-Step Digital Product Ladder Framework

Step 1: Free Valuable Resource (Freebie)

• Solves one specific problem
• Delivers a quick, tangible win
• Gets people on your email list

Step 2: Tripwire Product ($7-$27)

• Small purchase on your thank-you page
• Naturally follows from the freebie
• Turns subscribers into buyers

Step 3: Product Bundle ($47-$97)

• Combines multiple resources
• Provides comprehensive results
• Higher perceived value

Step 4: Mini Course or Coaching Package ($197-$497)

• Structured learning experience
• Leads customers toward membership
• More hands-on support

Step 5: Monthly Membership ($27-$97/month)

• Ongoing support and community
• Recurring revenue stream
• Builds long-term relationships

Step 6: Premium Mastermind ($997-$2,997)

• High-touch program
• For serious implementers
• Your highest revenue generator

The AI Prompt That Builds Your Entire Business Model in 30 Seconds

Here's the game-changing AI prompt that creates your complete digital product ladder system. Simply go to ChatGPT (the free version works fine) and enter this prompt with your specific details:

"I want to create a complete digital product ladder for [YOUR NICHE/TOPIC]. Help me design a six-step customer journey that transforms a free subscriber into a high-value customer.

Step 1: Create a valuable freebie that solves one specific pain point and delivers a quick, tangible win.

Step 2: Design a tripwire product that's something small I can sell on the thank-you page after someone joins my list. This product should naturally follow from the freebie and provide deeper value.

Step 3: Develop a product bundle that combines multiple resources for comprehensive results.

Step 4: Structure a mini course or coaching package that ultimately leads customers into joining my membership.

Step 5: Design a monthly membership that provides ongoing support and community.

Step 6: Create a premium mastermind or high-touch program for serious implementers.

For each step, provide the product concept, main benefits, suggested price, and how it connects to the next level."

If you sell digital products, you've probably asked: "How do I increase revenue without adding more work?" Good news—there's a simple, ethical, customer‑friendly tactic that top creators use every day:

Order bumps.

In this post, I'll show you what an order bump is, why it reliably grows your average order value (AOV), real examples that convert, and a copy‑paste prompt to brainstorm your own in minutes. I'll also share how to set this up with MiloTree (including what you can do on the Free Plan), so you can start today.

What's an Order Bump?

Think "add fries to your burger."

An order bump is a small, complementary offer shown right on the checkout page—purchased with a single checkbox click.

Why it works

• Zero extra friction: Buyer is already in buying mode.
• Clear added value: The bump makes the main product easier, faster, or better.
• Low price point: Sweet spot is usually $5–$15.

With MiloTree, the bump appears as a simple checkbox on your Stripe checkout. Your customer selects it, and boom—both items are purchased in one click. No extra pages. No confusion.

Real creators using MiloTree report 30–40%+ of buyers taking the bump—turning a $27 sale into $33–$38 in seconds.

How to Brainstorm Your Order Bump (Copy‑Paste Prompt)

Open ChatGPT (free version is fine) and paste:

You're an expert digital product strategist. I want to sell one main product and one smaller related product as an order bump. My niche is: [insert niche] My audience's biggest problem is: [insert problem] Give me 5 ideas for the main product and, for each one, a smaller related digital product that can be offered as an order bump.

In minutes, you'll have pairs you can sell individually and together.

Pro tip: If your solution is good, people don't care about fancy design. You can draft the whole bump in a simple Google Doc.

Pricing & Positioning: Quick Guidelines

• Keep it bite‑sized: A quick win your buyer can use today.
• Price for impulse: Aim for $5–$15.
• Complete the win: Ask, "What would make the main product easier/faster?" That's your bump.

Step‑by‑Step: Set It Up in MiloTree

1. Create your main product (Google Doc → PDF works great).
2. Create your bump product (short checklist, template pack, scripts, flashcards, etc.).
3. Connect Stripe in MiloTree.
4. Add the order bump to the main product's checkout (it appears as a checkbox).
5. Test your flow and publish.

What can you do on the MiloTree Free Plan?

• Sell 1 product for free and offer 1 freebie to grow your list.
• Perfect for getting your first product live fast and validating demand.

Note: Because an order bump sells a second product, bumps require a paid MiloTree plan. Plans start affordably, and many creators earn back the cost (and more) just from the bump uplift. When you're ready to add bumps (and unlimited products), upgrade and flip the switch.

When Not to Use a Bump

• If it's unrelated or bloats the purchase.
• If the price is too high for an impulse add‑on.
• If it introduces new tools/tech that slow the buyer down.

Keep it tight, relevant, and helpful.

Final Thought

Order bumps turn the sale you're already making into a bigger win for your customer and more revenue for you—without more content, hustle, or tech.

What's your main + bump combo? Drop it in the comments and I'll help you refine it.

Want help getting this live—fast?

Spin up your first product + one freebie on the MiloTree Free Plan today. When you're ready to add the order bump checkbox, upgrade and watch your AOV climb.

If you think you have no idea for a digital product, I promise you do — you're just too close to your own skills to see them. The things that feel normal to you could be worth $10, $20, or even $100 to someone else.

In this post, you'll learn how to create and sell your first digital product in just one week — without an online store, without complicated tools, and without spending a cent.

We'll use four free AI prompts to help you:

• Find your best-selling product idea
• Build it in minutes
• Set up a sales page instantly
• Promote it without feeling pushy

And the best part? You can do all of this using MiloTree's Free Plan, which lets you sell a digital download, offer freebies, and grow your social media followers — all for free.

Why Digital Products Are the Easiest Way to Make Money Online

Digital products are perfect for creators, bloggers, and entrepreneurs because:

• They cost nothing to create — no inventory, shipping, or overhead.
• They can sell forever — you make it once and sell it 24/7.
• They position you as an expert — people pay for your knowledge.

With the right process, you can go from idea to first Stripe notification in one week.

Step 1: Discover Your Hidden Product Idea

Open ChatGPT (free version works) and paste in this:

Prompt #1 Act as a business idea coach. I want to start selling digital products with no money. Here's my job, my hobbies, and my life experience: [insert yours]. Give me five simple digital product or service ideas I can start this week for free. I'd like ideas that make people money, save them money, save them time, move them toward happiness, move them away from pain, and/or raise their social status.

These are your six buying triggers — the psychological reasons people buy. ChatGPT will connect skills you take for granted with problems people will happily pay you to solve.

Step 2: Choose the Easiest, Fastest Product to Make

From ChatGPT's list, pick something you can create quickly that solves one small but painful problem. If you're unsure, ask ChatGPT to pick the simplest idea with the most customer appeal.

Step 3: Create Your Product in Under 10 Minutes

Use this second prompt:

Prompt #2 Write me a short, high-value checklist or guide that solves [insert problem] in under 10 minutes.

Copy the results into:

• Google Docs → edit → save as PDF, or
• Canva → choose a free guide template → paste → customize → download as PDF.

Step 4: Get Over the Fear of Selling

Nervous about putting your product out there? Try this:

Prompt #3 Act as my business coach. I'm feeling nervous about selling my product. Write me a short pep talk about why my product is valuable and how sharing it will help people.

Read it before you post — it works like a confidence switch.

Step 5: Set Up Your Sales Page (Free & Fast)

Go to MiloTree.com and sign up for the free plan. Now you can:

1. Click Digital Download in your dashboard.
2. Name your product, set a price (e.g., $14), and write a short description.
3. Upload your PDF.
4. Click Create Sales Page — MiloTree's AI writes it for you.
5. Customize text, colors, and images.
6. Connect your Stripe account for instant payments.

MiloTree even delivers your product automatically after purchase.

Step 6: Promote Without Feeling Pushy

Here's the final prompt:

Prompt #4 Act as a social media marketing expert. Give me five short, engaging post ideas to promote this product without sounding pushy, the top 10 places to share it, and a quick pep talk on why consistent promotion is essential.

Remember: you're not begging for sales — you're solving problems.

7-Day Plan to Your First Sale

• Day 1: Use Prompt #1 to brainstorm ideas
• Day 2: Pick your simplest, most promising idea
• Day 3: Use Prompt #2 to create your product

The Fastest Way to Launch a Digital Product (Even If You're Not "Techy")

Most people get stuck before they even start.

They worry about branding, design, websites, funnels... when really, your only goal should be to get a product in front of buyers and test what works. This is about speed and momentum.

Here's how to do it in under an hour:

🧠 Step 1: Use AI to Find Your Profitable Product Idea

Use this AI prompt (which you can download for free here):

"You are one of the top digital product creators and online business strategists in the world. You deeply understand what makes people buy and how to deliver high value offers fast. My area of expertise is [insert yours]. What are 10 problems people struggle with in this area?"

You don't need to be a guru—just someone a few steps ahead. Think meal planning, budgeting, decluttering, productivity, parenting… whatever you've figured out that others want help with.

Still not sure which problem to pick? Ask ChatGPT to refine the list. Then pick one.

📄 Step 2: Create a Simple Product in a Google Doc

Next, prompt ChatGPT:

"Write me a short high value checklist or guide that solves this problem in under 10 minutes."

Paste that into a Google Doc, give it a quick edit, save it as a PDF, and boom—you have a product.

This isn't about making it perfect. This is about making it fast and helpful. Think of it as your "B-minus" product—the one that gets you paid.

💸 Step 3: Sell It with No Website or Funnel

Head to MiloTree and sign up for our free plan. Here's what you'll do:

1. In your dashboard, click Digital Download.
2. Name your product, set a price (e.g., $17), and write a short description.
3. Upload your PDF.
4. Click "Create Sales Page"—MiloTree's AI writes it for you!
5. Connect your Stripe account to accept payments.
6. Done. You now have a sales page and payment system—ready to go.

We even deliver your PDF to buyers automatically. Zero tech drama. Zero stress.

📣 Step 4: Share Your Link Everywhere

This is where most creators give up.

They post once on social media and wonder why they're not making sales. The truth? Most people need to see your product 5–7 times before they buy.

Here's where to promote your sales page:

• Facebook groups where your audience hangs out
• Reddit threads discussing your topic
• Pinterest pins linking directly to your sales page
• Your Instagram bio
• Your email signature
• DMs to friends or followers who might benefit

Be scrappy. This is how your first $17 turns into $100, then $1,000.

🧠 What Do I Say to Get Sales?

Don't overthink it. Try something simple like:

"Hey, I created this $17 guide to help with [this problem]. It's short, easy, and it works. Want the link?"

Test different messages. See what gets replies. This is how you build your marketing muscle.

🚀 The Mindset That Makes It All Work

Perfection is a trap. Done is better than perfect.

A B-minus product can still solve a real problem—and that's what people pay for. You can always improve later.

The magic happens when you're willing to ship fast, collect feedback, and iterate.

Your 6-Step Product Launch Plan (Free + Easy)

1. Use our free AI prompt to brainstorm your product.
2. Build your digital product in a Google Doc.
3. Save it as a PDF.
4. Upload it to MiloTree using our free plan.

If you're an online entrepreneur, blogger, or coach trying to grow your email list or sell your products, you might feel stuck chasing Instagram trends and getting nowhere. What if there was a better, more sustainable way to drive traffic, collect leads, and make sales—on autopilot?

💡 Enter Pinterest—the most overlooked platform for organic growth.

In the latest episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I spoke with Nadalie Bardo, aka Your Pin Coach, who shared why Pinterest is a game-changer for creators who want to grow their business without dancing on Reels or fighting algorithm changes.

Here's what we uncovered—and how you can use Pinterest to grow your list, sell digital products, and make money starting now.

🎯 Pinterest Isn't Social Media—It's a Search Engine

Unlike Instagram or TikTok, Pinterest is a visual search engine. That means content you create today can continue bringing you traffic and leads months or even years from now.

"Pinterest is the slow burn that keeps burning," says Nadalie. "It brings in long-term results without the need to post daily."

Instead of relying on fleeting posts that disappear from feeds, you're building an evergreen traffic machine.

🚀 Step 1: Grow Your Email List with Pinterest

The smartest way to use Pinterest? To grow your list with a lead magnet or freebie.

👋 Don't have a freebie yet? With MiloTree's Free Plan, you can create an opt-in page in under 5 minutes, upload your freebie, and start collecting email addresses immediately—no tech skills required.

Nadalie recommends starting with 10 links—these could be blog posts, opt-in pages, sales pages, podcast episodes, or YouTube videos. Then:

1. Find 3–5 Keywords relevant to your niche using Pinterest Trends or the search bar.
2. Create 5 Pin Templates (Canva is perfect for this).
3. Design 5 Pins per Link using those templates.
4. Schedule 1 Pin per Day to start.

This strategy gives you 50 days of content—without burnout.

📅 Tap Into Pinterest Seasonality for Fast Results

Pinterest is a seasonal platform. If you can tap into trends—like summer vacations, back-to-school, or holiday gift guides—you'll accelerate your growth.

Example: If you're a gut health coach, try pins like:

• "How to Navigate Summer BBQs with IBS"
• "5 Gut-Friendly Holiday Recipes"
• "What to Pack for a Bloat-Free Beach Trip"

Seasonal content works because it aligns with what your audience is already searching for right now.

🤖 How to Use AI the Right Way (and Avoid Common Mistakes)

AI tools like ChatGPT can support your Pinterest strategy—but don't rely on them for everything.

✅ Use ChatGPT to:

• Write pin titles and descriptions (after you identify your keywords)
• Brainstorm use cases for your products (e.g., a bracelet as a bridal shower gift)
• Expand your audience by matching your niche with trending interests like nail art or summer hairstyles

❌ Avoid using ChatGPT to:

• Do keyword research (Pinterest has its own data)
• Generate AI-written content that misleads users (Pinterest is cracking down on this)

💸 Can You Link a Pin Directly to a Product and Make Sales?

Yes—but don't rely on a "one and done" pin to do all the work.

The truth is: 🧩 A pin might take weeks or months before someone buys. 👀 It could take 20 touchpoints before a customer makes a purchase.

That's why email is your superpower.

Use Pinterest to get people onto your email list with a compelling freebie, then follow up with:

• A welcome sequence
• A tripwire or low-cost offer
• An email series that builds trust and sells your product

🛠 With MiloTree's Free Plan, you can set up your freebie delivery and sell your first digital product—all from one simple dashboard.

🔥 Pinterest Traffic Is More Valuable Than Google

Yes, seriously. Nadalie reports that traffic from Pinterest earns her 3–5x more in ad revenue than traffic from Google or Bing. That's because Pinterest users are in action-taking mode. They're not just scrolling—they're clicking, saving, and buying.

✅ Start Simple: One Freebie + One Pin a Day

You don't need 20 pins a day to see results.

If you've got one strong freebie that solves a real problem and you create 5-10 pins to promote it, that's enough to start growing your list and validating your funnel.

This is the exact strategy we recommend with MiloTree:

1. Upload your freebie
2. Use our AI to generate an opt-in landing page
3. Post pins that lead people to it

🆓 And yes, you can do all of this on the MiloTree Free Plan. Start here and grow from there.

Final Thoughts: Pinterest + MiloTree = Organic Growth Engine

If you're tired of chasing social media trends with little to show for it, it's time to try Pinterest.

Pinterest gives you consistent, qualified traffic. MiloTree helps you turn that traffic into subscribers and sales.

Start with a clear goal, a simple freebie, and one pin a day—and build from there.
