Digital Products

If you’ve been building an online business for any length of time, there’s a good chance your tech stack has started to look something like this:One platform for your website. Another for email marketing. Something else for booking calls. Zoom for meetings. A link-in-bio tool. A checkout platform. Maybe another platform to host your course or digital products.

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been breaking down GetOiling’s different plans from a slightly different perspective. We started with Seed and asked how much business infrastructure we could build if we only had $9 a month to spend. Then we moved into Starter and looked at what another $20 per month could unlock as your audience grows and you need more room for email marketing, landing pages and automation.

Last week, I shared a real conversation I had with a client who needed to rebuild some of the tech behind her business on a very tight budget. We gave ourselves a challenge: if $9 a month was all we had to spend, how much could we actually accomplish with GetOiling’s Seed plan? The answer was quite a bit. That conversation made me want to take this a step further. What happens when your business starts needing more room, but you still aren’t ready for a larger tech investment? What does spending an additional $20 per month actually unlock?

You’d actually be surprised by how much tech can support your business for just $9 a month when you’re trying to get started—or get started again—on a budget. I had a conversation with a client this week who is looking for ways to streamline and eventually automate more of her business. The challenge... She’s working with a very tight budget.

Last week, I shared the beginning of a digital product launch that had me completely rethinking the way I create, market and monetize what I know. Now the cart is closed—and I have even more thoughts. The six-day launch is officially over. And the grand total? $313,036. But as impressive as that number is, it's everything that happened around it that has me thinking differently about my own business.
