How to Add a Digital Income Stream to Your Product Biz

This week, we’re rewinding a very popular episode of the podcast—and trust me, it hits even harder right now.

If you’ve ever thought about adding a digital layer to your product-based business—or if you’re quietly wondering what’s next for you beyond the stockroom or sales floor—this episode is a must-listen.

I’m diving into why digital products aren’t just for “online coaches” or influencers, and how you, as a retailer, maker, or brand founder, can turn your skills, story, or process into something scalable and impactful.

Whether it’s a course, a workshop, a downloadable guide, or a membership—this episode will open your eyes to what’s possible when you stop trading time for money and start thinking like a Digital CEO.

PLUS: You’ll hear from my own coach, James Wedmore, as he breaks down exactly how to get started, even if you have zero audience and no idea where to begin.

🎯 What You’ll Learn:

  • Why digital products can be the perfect addition to a physical product biz
  • Real-life examples from my own clients and James’ community (think: HR consultants, teachers, knitters, dog trainers—you name it!)
  • How to monetize before you make it and validate your idea first
  • The biggest mindset shifts that make a scalable business possible
  • What I learned from sitting in a room with multi-6 and 7-figure digital business owners
  • Why now is exactly the right time to explore this in your own business journey
