How to make your Gumroad products stand out?
Hey creators!
I am thinking of creating a simple course that teaches you how to customize the look and feel of your products and profile page on Gumroad. The course will include basic CSS and a lot of practical knowledge that shows you what can be customized and updated and how to apply the styles.
I am testing the waters and trying to figure out if this is something people would be interested in.
I've put up a sign-up page here.
Have you considered putting together a free, small PDF guide showing how to do some basic customisations? I think it'll be a great way to validate your idea.
That's a good point. I've released a product with a bunch of CSS customizations (https://gumroad.com/l/css-templates), however, every time Gumroad makes a change, a lot of things can break :)
For that reason, I figured it might make more sense to teach people how to fish instead.
I did get 60 sales on that product (I offered it for $10, then made it free, since the CSS was broken); but not sure if I'd consider that a validated idea :)
It sounds like a great start!
