For writers aspiring to generate income through digital products, it is advisable to initially focus on providing services, such as ghostwriting. This approach allows for faster income generation and a more manageable work-life balance, particularly when financially comfortable. Digital products require significant traffic and specialized knowledge, which typically takes time to acquire. Rather than attempting to market a low-ticket product to a large audience without adequate experience, focusing on premium services to fewer clients can result in quicker financial stability. Once the foundation is secured, including increased income and reduced working hours from a full-time job, one can shift to developing digital products. The learning gained from service provision enables the formation of frameworks and the accumulation of expertise, which can later be packaged into sellable digital products. This staggered approach not only addresses immediate financial needs but also aligns with the long-term goal of creating educational content based on developed skills and knowledge.
