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.

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

Watch the YouTube video here to see the step-by-step instructions. 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.

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: Click Digital Download in your dashboard. Name your product, set a price (e.g., $14), and write a short description. Upload your PDF. Click Create Sales Page — MiloTree's AI writes it for you. Customize text, colors, and images. 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 Day 4: Format it in Google Docs or Canva Day 5: Use Prompt #3, upload to MiloTree, set up sales page Day 6: Use Prompt #4 for marketing ideas Day 7: Share your link everywhere — even in DMs and texts Final Thoughts The only thing standing between you and your first $100 online is starting. Your skills are more valuable than you think — and someone out there is ready to pay for them.

Today, I want to dig into how I would start a business if there's no existing audience — how I would get off the ground, how we would get momentum, how I would create a community of people who are actually listening to what I have to say and how I would make real tangible dollar bills as early as possible in the process. But before we get into the strategies, I just want to say that I have never met someone who actually has no audience. Join The Co-op – The Membership for Online Businesses Connect with Abagail Instagram All the Links! Perhaps you've never started a page with this focus, or this niche, but we have connections, and it's our job to leverage the connections that already exist. I'm here to tell you that ultimately, the number of people in your audience has little to no relationship to the actual amount of sales that you can generate. The number of followers does not matter! It's about creating the right community that is supportive of where you're going. So, let's dive in.

What if becoming a better leader meant letting go of being the expert? In this Unlearn episode, I'm joined by David Tuck, Chief Executive of Waracle, for a thoughtful and human-centered conversation on the mindset shifts required to lead high-performing teams in complex, fast-changing environments.David's leadership journey spans over 15 years of agile transformation, commercial growth, and organizational design. He's held executive roles at Kin + Carta, The App Business, ThoughtWorks, and Scott Logic, and now leads Waracle, a strategic design and technology consultancy that builds trusted digital products for enterprise clients.Known for his calm conviction and people-first approach, David shares how curiosity, craft, and long-term client intimacy have shaped his leadership philosophy. From stepping back in his career to hone his sales skills, to becoming a CEO who leads experts by asking better questions, David reflects on what it means to grow companies—and yourself—by design. This episode explores how to lead through inquiry, build trust at scale, and why today's leaders must become “Chief Unlearn Officers” to stay relevant in an AI-powered world.Key TakeawaysCraft First, Climb Later: David shares why stepping back from leadership to deepen his sales craft at Waracle gave him the clarity and credibility to lead more effectively.Lead Without Knowing Everything: CEOs don't need all the answers—they need to ask better questions and create space for their teams to excel.AI Starts with Literacy: Leaders must understand AI fundamentals to steer transformation and avoid becoming disconnected from how value is created.From Specialist to Generalist: The CEO role is about orchestration—shifting from doing to enabling across functions and disciplines.Human Connection Still Wins: At Waracle and beyond, trust, empathy, and meaningful relationships still drive long-term business success in an AI-powered world.Additional InsightsRedefine Leadership as Service: A CEO's job is to help others succeed, not to control every decision or be the expert in the room.Ask Better Questions: Using frameworks like the probing pyramid can unlock better thinking and faster alignment across teams.Don't Automate the Human: AI can accelerate delivery, but it can't replace the emotional intelligence and trust that drive real impact.Create Space for Reflection: Strategic pauses and structured dialogue lead to more thoughtful, inclusive decisions—especially in hybrid teams.Unlearn to Move Forward: Leaders need to let go of outdated habits and create the conditions for new thinking to thrive.Useful ResourcesDavid Tuck on LinkedInWaracle on LinkedInWaracle WebsiteDavid Bowie's 1999 interview on the future of the internetWaracle's AI Literacy ProgramFollow the Host:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barryoreilly Personal site:

You asked, I answered.If you've been wondering whether the Digital Product Bootcamp is the right move for you, this episode breaks it all the way down.I popped a question box on IG asking where you're at in your digital product journey, and the responses? All over the map (in the best way). So I'm giving candid answers on who the Bootcamp is for, who it's not for, and what you need to know before you join.We're covering real-life scenarios like:“I've started my product but can't grow my followers”“I have 3 ideas and can't pick one”“I launched something, but no one's buying”“I'm a chef/dietitian/coach—does this still apply to me?”“I don't even know what to sell or where to start”“I'm second-guessing everything (including myself)”Whether you're brand new or already launched something that flopped, this is your no-BS episode to decide if the Bootcamp's your next step. In this episode:Who the Bootcamp is actually built for (and who might be better off inside Rich Girl Community)Why you don't need a big audience to joinHow this round's Launch GPT Bot helps simplify decisions, copy, and techThe magic of a focused 6-week launch windowWhat to do if you've got too many ideasWhy “confidence” doesn't need to come first (and what to focus on instead)This is the episode I wish I had before launching my first digital product. If you're in the doubt spiral right now, you are so not alone. This will help.Resources:Join Digital Product Bootcamp HERE!

Subscribe to the show and get weekly tips from Tanya on how to grow, scale and diversify your online business. Want to know how to sell digital products online...without feeling like you're drowning in tech, doubts, and impostor syndrome? Let me take you back to the day I made my very first digital sale. It was 2014. I had no fancy tools, no big audience, and no real plan—just an idea, a simple offer, and a prayer that someone out there would buy it. And when that ding hit my inbox? That $297 sale changed everything. Not because of the money (although, yes please)...but because it gave me something even more valuable: belief. In this episode, I'm walking you through: The exact moment I sold my first digital product Why that one little sale unlocked multiple seven figures (and way more freedom) The truth about getting started—even if your idea isn't perfect, your list is tiny, or you still use sticky notes as a launch plan And how to make your first sale without needing 10,000 followers or a viral dance reel If you've been wondering how to sell digital products online and you're feeling a little overwhelmed, a little underqualified, or just unsure where to start—this one's for you. Let's take the mystery (and the pressure) out of that first sale. It's a lot closer than you think—and I'm here to help you get there.

Now let's make that blog post work even harder for you. Why You Should Be Repurposing Blog Content If a post is performing well, don't let it sit idle. Instead of constantly creating something new, build systems around redistributing your best content to give it a longer shelf life. Whether it's via social, email, video, or products—there are countless ways to extend the value of your top content. Here are 13 creative ways to do exactly that: 1. Pull a Quote and Share It as Text on Social Media Find a powerful line or tip from your blog post and share it as plain text on a colorful background. This works great on Facebook, Instagram, and even in stories. Add the blog link in the first comment or the caption to drive traffic. 2. Turn Blog Graphics into a Social Carousel or Reel Take 5–10 graphics or photos from the blog post and create a quick-scroll carousel or a short video reel. This is perfect for Instagram or Facebook and helps breathe new life into your visuals. Bonus tip: Use a tool like Post Planner (linked below in the episode) to put your graphics on autopilot. 3. Create Multiple Pinterest Pins Don't stop at one pin. Create 5–10 different versions with varied images and headlines. Use different boards—including a board dedicated to that one blog post if it performs exceptionally well. 4. Create a Long-Form Tutorial Video If the post is a how-to or recipe, turn it into a YouTube video or a longer Facebook/Instagram tutorial. Walk your audience through the steps while linking to the original post for the full details. 5. Share It in Stories as a Talking Point Pop into your Instagram or Facebook stories and talk about the post. No editing required. Just share what it's about and why it's worth their time. Add a link sticker to send people directly to the post. 6. Share It on Syndicated Sites Find niche-specific platforms like Hometalk, Foodgawker, or CraftGawker (depending on your niche) and submit your content. Always tag relevant brands or creators—they may reshare and expand your reach even further. 7. Turn It into a Digital Product or Ebook Copy and paste your post into ChatGPT or Canva Docs and ask it to format it as an ebook. Sell it as a low-ticket product or bundle it with similar content in your shop. 8. Make It a Lead Magnet Use your most popular post as an opt-in offer. For example: “Want to learn how to make a perfect messy bow? Grab the tutorial here!” Collect emails and deliver the blog post as the freebie. 9. Repurpose It for Your Email List Paste the first paragraph or a juicy snippet into your weekly newsletter with a link to the full post. You can even pull content from old posts this time last year—done is better than perfect! 10. Link It to Other Blog Posts Add links to this top-performing post at the bottom of other related content. This internal linking helps readers (and Google) stay on your site longer and see your most valuable content. 11. Use It in a Roundup Post Create a themed roundup that includes the top blog post. If your lemon bundt cake is going viral, write a “Best Lemon Desserts” roundup and include that post (plus two to three more). Internal linking and SEO win-win. 12. Record It as Audio or Podcast Content Add an audio version of the post to your blog (tools like Play.ht or ConvertKit's new audio block work well), or reference it on your podcast. You can even read it word-for-word as an episode. 13. Mention It in Your Live Video or Stories (Bonus Tip!) Talk about the post while you're live or in your weekly stories. Use keyword triggers and automated tools to send the link when viewers comment. This is great for engagement and email list growth. Make Repurposing a Habit, Not a One-Off Choose 3–5 of these ideas to start with and build a routine. Repurposing doesn't have to be overwhelming—just intentional. Add these steps to your content checklist and watch your reach and results grow. Got another creative way to repurpose a post?
