What If I’m Not Techy? Can I Still Sell Digital Products?
If you’ve ever said, “I’d love to sell digital products, but I’m just not techy,” you are not alone.
So many moms feel overwhelmed by the idea of setting up a shop, designing a product, or figuring out the tech involved. The good news? You don’t need to be tech-savvy to be successful with digital products.
You just need simple tools, step-by-step instructions, and a willingness to learn as you go. Let’s break down how even the least “techy” person can start and grow a digital product business from home.
💡 DEFINITION: What Does “Not Techy” Really Mean?
If you can:
- Use Facebook
- Watch YouTube videos
- Navigate Google Docs
…then you have all the skills you need to start. Being “techy” doesn’t mean knowing how to code—it just means being willing to try something new.
🎯 Step 1: Use Beginner-Friendly Tools
There are so many tools made specifically for non-techy people.
Here are a few of my favorites:
- Canva – drag-and-drop design (great for printables, planners, and templates)
- Stan Store – sell digital downloads without building a website
- Payhip – easy-to-use platform with built-in delivery and checkout
- MailerLite – email marketing that’s clean and intuitive
You don’t need to master every tool. Just pick one platform, one product, and start there.
🛠️ Step 2: Start with Templates (So You’re Not Starting from Scratch)
One of the best ways to avoid tech overwhelm is to use templates:
- Done For Your Ready To Sell
- Canva product templates
- Etsy listing templates
- Email marketing swipe files
- Printable mockup templates
Templates save time, remove guesswork, and help you stay focused.
🧠 Step 3: Learn One Step at a Time
Trying to do everything at once = instant overwhelm. But if you break it down into baby steps, it becomes way easier:
- Choose a product idea
- Design it in Canva
- Upload it to a platform like Etsy or Stan Store
- Create a simple listing
- Share it once on Pinterest or Instagram
That’s it. Rinse and repeat.
💬 Step 4: Ask for Help When You Need It
There are endless tutorials on YouTube and Pinterest showing you exactly how to:
- Make your first Canva design
- Set up a free Stan Store
- List a product on Etsy
- Create a Payhip download link
You don’t have to figure it out alone. Google is your best friend!
