5 Simple Digital Product Ideas That Anyone Can Create in 2021
1. Stock photos
If you have a DSLR camera – or even just a smartphone with a good camera – you can create and sell stock photos.
Stock photos aren’t always fancy, either. People buy them for all kinds of different purposes; you never know what might sell!
2. Stock videos
85% of businesses use video as a marketing tool (up from 61% in 2016), but not all small businesses can afford custom videography.
And as more businesses turn to video, so will the demand for affordable solutions.
ConvertKit creator, Chic Voyage Productions, offers unique travel stock videos of different cities around the world. I love how niche his content is; it shows how you don’t need to cast a wide net to catch big fish!
3. eBooks
eBooks are fantastic digital products to sell. You can sell them on your website or upload them for an amazon wider reach.
I decided to take a few modules from my eCourse and turn it into an affordable eBook. This way, I can reach my audience members who aren’t ready – or didn’t want to – commit to a course.
4. Tutorials
Putting an entire course together is time-consuming. If you want to teach but aren’t ready to put a full course together, consider selling tutorials. Tutorials are a great way to teach a portion of what you know to your followers.
A tutorial can be a standalone product or part of a bigger online course if you want to up-sell at the end of the tutorial.
5. 4K drone footage
Just like stock photos, stock videos are big sellers in the digital product marketplace. However, drone footage in particular has a competitive edge, quite simply because not everyone has a drone.
Plus, it’s an in-demand type of footage for all kinds of video production projects, large and small. In fact, many big companies actually purchase drone footage from independent creators, or license it from stock marketplaces like Getty Images, Shutterstock, or Adobe.
If you already have a drone license and an aerial camera drone, you’ve got everything you need to create and sell drone footage. If you don’t, you can always rent a drone for this purpose!
