Why You Don’t Need an Audience to Start Selling
If your product solves a real, urgent pain point, people will pay for it.
For example:
- A $5 printable grocery list = “Nice to have”
- A $97 coaching session to stop emotional eating = “Take my money!”
Your job is to solve a problem—not build a perfect brand first.
The Fastest Path to Your First Sale
Here’s the truth: If you’ve ever helped a friend through a challenge, you can sell a digital product. And the easiest way to start is to offer 1:1 coaching.
Here’s how:
- Use MiloTree’s free AI-generated sales pages to get your offer up in 5 minutes.
- Schedule your sessions with Calendly.
- Meet on Zoom.
You’re in business. No tech headaches. No design needed.

Promote Where People Are Searching, Not Scrolling
Here’s where most creators go wrong: they rely on platforms like Instagram, which are great for engagement, but not for sales.
If you want your product to get found, focus on search-based platforms like:
- Pinterest (great for evergreen traffic)
- YouTube (great for building authority and connection)
💡 Pro tip: Create pins or videos that highlight the painful problem your product solves. Use keywords. And remember—Pinterest content lives forever.
