“Just package what you know into a 5-module course” is the advice that built an entire industry. It’s also what’s killing it. We got drunk on digital dopamine and called it “learning.”Meanwhile, the world changed. But the course format didn’t. Now? The wreckage is visible. Scroll through any creator’s drive and you’ll find 12 dusty…
I’ve learned this the stupid way—You can build a product people need and still watch it die in their inbox like a lonely Google Doc. And even though I oversimplified making info products in the Info Product 101 guide, messy content isn’t quirky—it’s conversion cancer. I learned this during my sabbatical, when I dissected dozens…
Digital products suffer from an illusion of endless supply, which annihilates urgency, sabotages momentum, and flattens conversions. When I took a sabbatical after burning out from launching too many mediocre things, I started helping other creators behind the scenes. Same story. Same pain. They were smart. Their products were valuable. But no one was buying….
Meet the Woman Who Turned Buyer Psychology Into a 7-Figure Weapon without selling her soul—or a course every 3 weeks. Before she was dubbed a “visionary entrepreneur” by Forbes, Katelyn Bourgoin built everything. Then lost most of it. 🧩 A branding agency that boomed. 🍴 A restaurant consultancy she sold. 💸 A VC-backed startup that……
“Teach what you know.” The most harmless advice that’s killed more good products than bad design ever will. It sounds noble. Clean. Even empowering. But here’s the unspoken truth I discovered in year four of building info products, after multiple burnouts, half-successful launches, and a sabbatical where I researched over 50 creators: Most people don’t…
They say “build it and they will come.” Nobody tells you “build it wrong and they will ghost.” All of this is a problem that comes from crappy info product planning. The info product graveyard is massive. Full of courses, eBooks, and programs with 3 modules, zero sales, and one lonely landing page haunting the web…
People think they can make info products firing from the hip…without having an info product strategy— no map, no compass, just sheer “hustle energy” and a triple-shot espresso. (👀 Not saying that’s you…but it could be.) The digital wasteland is littered with casualties: These aren’t just random failures. They’re systemic symptoms of creator capitalism gone…
Once upon a very caffeinated sabbatical, I started noticing a strange pattern: Courses were becoming the creator economy’s equivalent of junk bonds—once shiny, now suspiciously unstable. I didn’t just study this collapse. I lived it. I had the logo. The landing page. The hype. Result? Three buyers. One was my cousin. The other two? Probably…
Welcome to Info Product 101—a crash course, a cautionary tale, and a slightly unstable documentary about the new economy of monetized expertise. But first, a confession: I didn’t set out to build an info business. I was just trying to survive a burnout that left me allergic to Google Docs, money, and the word “deliverable.”…
Most info creator businesses begin with a simple consulting offer (or at least they should), but they are not… scalable creator offers. They feel scalable. Until you’re drowning in Zoom calls, juggling Stripe invoices like flaming torches, and tweaking Notion proposals at 1 AM like a caffeinated dungeon goblin. At some point, it hits you:…
