Tips from Gumroad sellers who have made over $100k. This article is filled with good advice.
For example:
1. "Ask people what they struggle with. Then create a solution for them and deliver it through Gumroad. It's really that simple."
2. "As creators, we often get fixated on dominating a market, or building something truly unique — this is a good mentality if you want to build a unicorn, but not useful if your goal is to build a lifestyle business. It’s not about taking over a market, but instead carving out a sustainable niche. A local pizza restaurant doesn’t expect to take over Pizza Hut, they just need to own the neighborhood around them..."
What's really interesting is how, as you read through the tips, you'll notice patterns. Although many of the creators sharing have vastly different businesses, there are similarities in the lessons they learned building them.
Fun tip: After you read a creator's tip, check out their profile and see what they're selling. After all, each of the people sharing has earned over $100k on Gumroad alone. Might be more to learn by studying their products!
