From Idea to Income: Setting Up Your First Digital Product

You have an idea. Maybe it’s a guide, a checklist, a mini-course, or a toolkit. But how do you turn that into real income?

The journey from idea to income can feel overwhelming, especially when you live in places like The Bahamas, where many global platforms don’t allow direct bank deposits.

But here’s the good news: you CAN set up and sell digital products successfully.

Step 1: Define Your Offer What quick win can you help someone achieve? Think small and actionable for your first product.

Step 2: Create the Content Use Canva, Google Docs, or PowerPoint to create a polished, branded PDF.

Step 3: Choose a Hosting Platform Some great options include Gumroad, Payhip, Stan Store, or SamCart. But here’s the catch: not all of these allow payouts to Bahamian bank accounts.

How to Get Paid Anyway:

• Link your account to Payoneer or Wise

• U.S. PayPal (if you have one)

• Set up a trusted family/friend U.S. bank account to receive transfers

You can also host your product on a platform, but have customers pay you directly via:

• Cash N' Go Payoneer Platform (You have to sign up for this)

• PayPal

• Bank transfer

• IslandPay or Kanoo

Then send them the product manually or via automated email after payment.
