9 BEST Digital Products to Sell Online ($5,328/mo) 💰
About this video
Hayes lists nine digital product types she expects to be in demand, noting eight can be passive while one requires custom work. They are: activity printables such as date-night or Advent cards; educational printables such as language flashcards and pre-K resources — she cites one listing averaging 66 monthly sales at $11.67, which she calculates as about $772 a month; AI art, noting Etsy’s stated position that sellers may sell work made with AI tools from their own original prompts if they disclose AI use in the listing, demonstrated with an AI image generator and erase-and-fill editing; Notion templates, especially life planners with planning pages, habit trackers and work logs, citing a $15 listing averaging 94 sales a month; mockup images, taken as photos or AI-generated, citing a holiday mug mockup shop she says is seven months old with 2,196 sales; educational videos and courses, from low-ticket classes to full courses, hosted in her case on Kajabi, arguing creators only need to be about 10% ahead of learners; industry-specific social media templates for niches such as photographers or real estate agents, citing a travel Instagram bundle she calculates at over $1,086 a month; planning spreadsheet bundles, especially budgeting planners for Google Sheets or Excel, citing about $696 a month for one listing; and digital portraits made from customer photos, usually in Photoshop — the non-passive exception because each order is customised, but which she says is especially in demand around gifting seasons. All revenue figures are her calculations based on listings she shows, not verified results.
Key takeaways
- Activity and educational printables are presented as consistently in demand on Etsy
- On Etsy, AI art must use your own original prompts and disclose AI use in the listing description
- Notion life planners, mockup bundles and niche social media templates can command repeat passive sales
- Educational videos span low-ticket classes to full courses; Hayes says being about 10% ahead of learners is enough to teach
- Digital portraits are the one non-passive pick — each is customised from a customer photo, with demand peaking around holidays
