Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/j4eaNgNz3yw?si=7is17YCNNiMMx2Mw 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). Show Notes: MiloTree Confidence and Promotion AI Prompt Pack (Free Download) Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify 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: Set up your product in MiloTree → choose Digital Download. Name, price, and upload your PDF or file (e.g., “Time Management for Busy Moms” at $27). Click Create Sales Page → MiloTree's AI writes your sales copy for you. Get one shareable link you can paste everywhere (social, email, DMs). Payments go to you via Stripe; MiloTree auto-delivers the file to customers. Why creators love this workflow No website or tech stack required AI-written sales page (goodbye blank page) Auto-delivery + instant payments Share one link everywhere and focus on consistent promotion

And then they wonder why no one's buying.The truth is: Sales happen when content follows a journey.

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. Show Notes: MiloTree Free Plan Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify 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: Make someone money Save them money Save them time Move them toward happiness Move them away from pain 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.” How MiloTree Eliminates the Tech Overwhelm The biggest obstacle most creators face isn't knowing what to create—it's the technical setup. How do you actually build all this without getting overwhelmed by complicated tech? This is where MiloTree becomes your secret weapon. You can set up each step of your ladder—from your freebie to your mastermind membership—right inside MiloTree without needing a website or expensive tech tools.

With the MiloTree Grow Plan Sell digital products Offer unlimited freebies Grow your email list Build customer relationships Scale with affordable plans Your Action Plan: Start Building Your Digital Product Ladder Today Ready to transform your online business? Here's exactly what to do: Step 1: Test Your Idea Use the six purchasing triggers test. If your idea doesn't hit at least two triggers, pick a different problem to solve. Step 2: Use the AI Prompt Copy the complete digital product ladder AI prompt and run it through ChatGPT with your specific niche details. Step 3: Start with Your Freebie Don't try to build everything at once. Start with step one—your valuable freebie that gets people on your email list. Step 4: Set Up Your Tech Stack Sign up for MiloTree's Free Plan and create your opt-in page. You can have your freebie live and collecting emails within the hour. Step 5: Build Systematically Once your freebie is working, add your tripwire product, then your bundle, and so on. Build your ladder one step at a time. Free Resources to Get You Started

In this episode of Hustle Inspires Hustle, Alex Quin sits down with Greg Vetter, founder of Tessemae's, to discuss how a stolen bottle of his mom's homemade salad dressing sparked the creation of a national clean-food brand. Greg shares the realities of building a business from scratch, including cold-calling executives for insights, inventing clean manufacturing, and scaling Tessemae's to a $300–$500 million valuation—only to later face investor conflict and a complete collapse of the company. He opens up about writing his book Undressed, launching new ventures like Altaresh, Quenchers, and Tushies, and how staying grounded through family, routine, and faith helped him rebuild and support other entrepreneurs through his brand accelerator.Episode Outline:[00:00:04] Greg Vetter joins Alex Quin; summer recap and background[00:01:45] Exposure to wealth at college sparked entrepreneurial curiosity[00:04:22] Cold-calling executives to learn about success[00:05:29] Developing a sales system for tracking daily productivity[00:06:26] How a stolen bottle of dressing sparked a business idea[00:08:02] Early reactions from wife and mom to Tessemae's concept[00:09:00] First retail demo and 660 bottles sold in 5 days[00:11:35] What made Tessemae's different: clean ingredients and taste[00:12:55] Early marketing strategies: Facebook, in-store demos[00:14:12] Building a manufacturing plant from scratch[00:15:54] Business valued at $300M–$500M[00:17:27] Investor conflicts, legal battles, and business implosion[00:20:39] Launching the book Undressed after losing the company[00:23:20] Daily routines, mindset, and resilience as a dad and entrepreneur[00:26:33] New venture: Altaresh, and major partnerships with Sam's Club and Costco[00:28:59] Other businesses: Quenchers (vodka beverage), Tushies (portable toilets & wipes)[00:31:30] Brand accelerator and helping others scale their product companies[00:32:51] Legacy thoughts and personal branding symbolsWisdom Nuggets:Curiosity Fuels Success: Greg's success started with asking questions—first to wealthy teammates' parents, then to CEOs.

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.

Discoverability with Meta Ads, digital product sales funnels, and thinking beyond organic traffic with Tammy Overhoff from Organize Yourself Skinny. Welcome to episode 531 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Tammy Overhoff. Mastering Digital Products and Meta Ads Tammy started food blogging in 2011 and has reinvented her business many times over the last 14 years. After taking her food blog full-time in 2014 and being hit hard by one-too-many Google algorithm updates, Tammy knew she needed to make a change to her business so that she was no longer working from a place of desperation. In 2022, she took a step back from SEO and diversified her business by leaning into digital product sales. In this interview, Tammy explains her exact process (including numbers!) for selling digital products, including her Meta Ads strategy. For any creator, it can feel daunting to spend money to reach an audience when social media and organic traffic are free. But Tammy makes a really compelling case for investing in Meta Ads as a different opportunity for discoverability to allow you to think beyond organic traffic for growing your business online. If you're looking to diversify your traffic (hello, who isn't!?) or dive into digital product sales, you won't want to miss this interview. Three episode takeaways: How to run successful Facebook ad campaigns — Tammy breaks down how she fine-tunes the creative elements and messaging in her Meta ads. She highlights the importance of testing different ad variations — exploring various themes, angles, and messaging — and explains when to optimize your ad sets for better performance. How to analyze Facebook ad data effectively — Tammy and Bjork dive deep into the analytics behind Meta ads, discussing key metrics like ROAS (Tammy aims for a range between 1.6 and 1.85). They share real numbers around daily ad spend and email leads, and walk through how to scale your ad budget strategically. While ads can ensure visibility, they emphasize the importance of making sure your content delivers a strong return on investment. How to strategically build and nurture your community — Tammy shares actionable strategies for growing an engaged audience that's ready to buy. She emphasizes the value of offering helpful, problem-solving content and explains how to use email sequences, sales funnels, and automation to build a sustainable business, without burning out.
