A template is a digital product for the productivity app Notion.
Notion has 30M+ users and continues to grow every day.
And the demand for templates is increasing as we speak.
2) My first product
15 months ago, I built my very first template.
It was a health tracking system that I needed for myself.
It helped me keep track of my workouts, nutrition and self development.
I ended up sharing this template on Reddit.
3) Product validation
After posting to the Notion subreddit, everyone started asking for the template.
"Can I get access?" and "Can I pls try it?"
So instantly I recognized that there was demand for these templates.
I decided to try and charge money for it.
4) The launch
I put my template up for sale at $15 on Gumroad.
Next, I launched the template on Producthunt.
On the first day I made $100. The next day $200.
After a week, I had made $500 out of thin air.
5) More products
I thought... If I can make $500 off one product,
How much can I make if I have 20 products?
So I started building new products,
Products that solved problems for others.
6) Scaling
The more products I had, the more upsells and bundles I could make.
If a customer came to spend $10, they usually left spending $50.
Why? Because I had so many products to pick from.
I crafted great offers, bundles and upsells for them.
7) Quit my job
After 6 months, I made enough money to quit my 9-5.
I started building more advanced templates.
I started raising my prices to reflect that.
And my income kept growing and growing.
8) Email marketing
I started sending emails to my list of 50K customers.
Now I could suddenly print money on-demand.
I sent out offers and discounts to them.
And the sales would come in on autopilot.
9) The formula
I kept following the same simple formula:
1. Build a product that solves a problem 2. Put product for sale on Gumroad 3. Launch product on Producthunt 4. Do upsells, bundles and emails 5. Get paid on autopilot
