Starting a digital product business might sound overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be.
Whether you're a stay-at-home parent, a side hustler, or a creative looking to build something of your own, selling digital products is one of the easiest, lowest-risk ways to start earning online.
At The Resell Studio, we believe in making digital business simple, stylish, and sustainable. In this post, you'll learn how to go from zero to your first product—without needing a big audience or a design degree.
What Are Digital Products?
Digital products are items you can sell online without managing physical inventory. Once created, they can be sold over and over again—making them an ideal source of passive income.
Popular examples include:
Canva templates
Printables (like planners, trackers, and labels)
Instagram post bundles
Etsy listing mockups
E-books or guides
Notion dashboards
Tools You Need to Get Started
You don’t need a complicated setup. With just a few simple tools, you can launch your first digital product quickly:
Canva – for creating your product
Etsy or Payhip – for listing and selling
Google Drive or Dropbox – for delivering your files
Pinterest or Instagram – to drive traffic to your product
At The Resell Studio, we even offer plug-and-play templates so you can spend more time selling and less time designing.
Choose a Simple First Product to Sell
Start small. Pick something that's useful, visually appealing, and serves a specific niche. A few great beginner-friendly ideas:
A weekly meal planner printable
A neutral-toned Instagram post template bundle
A t-shirt mockup for Etsy sellers
A branding kit for handmade businesses
If you're unsure where to begin, browse Etsy or Pinterest to see what's trending—then create your own version with a personal twist.
