    🚀 [MAKE MONEY ONLINE] 🚀 Sell digital products, grow your list, and boost your social media with ease—start for FREE! ➡️ https://milotree.com/ ___________________________________________ Think you need a big following or fancy website to start making money online? Think again. If you’ve ever dreamed of selling digital products—like ebooks, printables, or even coaching—but have no audience, no blog, and maybe not even an idea yet, this post is for you. 🎧 In my latest episode of the Blogger Genius, I share the exact strategy I’ve seen creators use to make real money from scratch. No list, no followers, just a desire to help solve a painful problem. Show Notes: MiloTree AI Digital Product Generator Free Ebook Creation Prompts + Canva Template AI Freebie Prompt Generator Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: YouTube iTunes Spotify Why You Don’t Need an Audience to Start Selling If your product solves a real, urgent pain point, people will pay for it. For example: A $5 printable grocery list = "Nice to have" A $97 coaching session to stop emotional eating = "Take my money!" Your job is to solve a problem—not build a perfect brand first. The Fastest Path to Your First Sale Here’s the truth: If you’ve ever helped a friend through a challenge, you can sell a digital product. And the easiest way to start is to offer 1:1 coaching. Here’s how: Use MiloTree’s free AI-generated sales pages to get your offer up in 5 minutes. Schedule your sessions with Calendly. Meet on Zoom. You’re in business. No tech headaches. No design needed. 🎁 Want help picking your offer? Grab my freebie: 10 Awesome Digital Product Ideas You Can Launch This Week Not into Coaching?

It’s everything you need to create a product, upload it to MiloTree, and start selling today. Promote Where People Are Searching, Not Scrolling Here’s where most creators go wrong: they rely on platforms like Instagram, which are great for engagement, but not for sales. If you want your product to get found, focus on search-based platforms like: Pinterest (great for evergreen traffic) YouTube (great for building authority and connection) 💡 Pro tip: Create pins or videos that highlight the painful problem your product solves. Use keywords. And remember—Pinterest content lives forever. The 4-Part Digital Product Game Plan Want a no-fluff roadmap? Brainstorm with ChatGPT Create with Canva Launch with MiloTree Promote on Pinterest & YouTube 🔁 Then rinse and repeat until something hits. You don’t win by being perfect—you win by testing.

    Why Selling in Your First Email Isn’t Pushy—It’s Profitable (And What Most Creators Get Wrong)

    If you’ve been told never to sell in your welcome email, think again. In the latest episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I sat down with email marketing expert Kylie Kelly, who shares a powerful, unconventional strategy: selling in your very first email. And guess what? It works. If you’re trying to grow your email list, convert subscribers into customers, and make sales without waiting weeks or months, this post is for you. Show Notes: MiloTree Kylie Kelly AI Ebook Prompt Generator Free Canva ebook template AI Freebie Prompt Generator Email Sales Templates Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: YouTube iTunes Spotify Why Most Creators Get Email Wrong A common myth in email marketing is that you need to “warm up” your audience before making any offer. Kylie calls this out. Why wait, she asks, when your new subscriber is most engaged right now—immediately after signing up for your freebie? This is the moment they’re most open to hearing from you. They’ve just said, “Yes, I trust you.” So why not show them exactly how you can help? Here’s What to Do Instead Kylie breaks it down simply: ✅ Send a single, value-packed welcome email Instead of a 5-part welcome sequence, Kylie delivers the freebie and introduces herself and sells—all in the same email. ✅ Include your offer in the PS She doesn’t hit people over the head with it. She simply adds a quick, “P.S. I also have this membership—check it out if you’re ready to go deeper.” That’s it. And it converts. ✅ Follow up with a short nurture sequence After that first email, she sends a few value-packed emails that build trust and explain the benefits of her offer. This works because it’s honest, direct, and respects the reader’s time. Want to Build Your Email List Fast—Without Social Media? You don’t need a huge following or a complicated funnel to grow your list. 🎉 With MiloTree’s Free Plan, you can: Create an AI-generated opt-in landing page in minutes Upload and deliver your freebie automatically Grow your email list with ease Start selling digital products with zero tech overwhelm Perfect for bloggers, course creators, and online entrepreneurs who want results fast—no credit card required. Freebie Ideas That Actually Convert Not sure what kind of freebie to offer? Kylie recommends: Quizzes (people love discovering something about themselves) Private podcasts (great for busy moms or on-the-go entrepreneurs) Simple PDFs or checklists (value matters more than design) 👉 Want to create a freebie today? Grab our AI Freebie Prompt Cheatsheet to generate yours in under 5 minutes. How to Be More Intentional with Your List Building The key takeaway from Kylie’s strategy? Intentionality. Don’t grow a big list—grow the right list. Every opt-in, freebie swap, or bundle you join should be built around one question: “Is this bringing in my ideal customer?” Otherwise, you risk having a large, disengaged list that costs money to maintain but doesn’t convert. Pro tip: Before you join a collaboration or bundle, ask yourself: Will my ideal client be here? Is my freebie aligned with what they truly need? Am I thinking strategically about where I want this subscriber to go? Why Email Beats Social Media Every Time Many creators pour endless hours into Instagram and TikTok, only to see minimal results. Kylie looked at her own analytics and realized: social media was barely sending traffic to her site. So she quit the game—and leaned fully into email. Today, she sells through email in nearly every message she sends. And guess what? She’s thriving. Ready to Sell in Your First Email? Here’s your 3-step plan to start today: Offer a Freebie: Use MiloTree’s free plan to create your opt-in landing page in minutes. Send a Powerful First Email: Deliver the freebie, introduce yourself, and offer your product (even in a simple P.S.). Follow Up with Value: Send 2-3 follow-up emails that guide your new subscriber to the solution you offer. ✅ Skip the perfectionism. ✅ Skip the endless warming-up. ✅ Start selling sooner. Because the truth is, your audience doesn’t need a million touchpoints—they need clarity, value, and direction. And when you believe in what you’re offering, selling isn’t sleazy—it’s service. Final Thought Stop playing small with your email strategy. If you’re offering real value, there’s no reason to wait to sell. Let your audience know how you can help—starting with email #1. 📬 Ready to turn subscribers into buyers? Sign up for MiloTree and start selling from your inbox today!

Sounds tempting, but it rarely works. Why? Because: Today’s online audience is fragmented. People are picky with their email addresses. A one-size-fits-all freebie doesn’t meet everyone’s needs.

    Stop Chasing Traffic. Start Building a Brand That Pays You.

    If you’re still relying on Google traffic and ad revenue to grow your blog, here’s the hard truth: that era is over. In this episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I sat down with Katie Trant of Foodie Brand Lab to talk about the seismic shift happening in online business. AI is changing how people search, generic content is flooding the internet, and Google algorithm updates are gutting traffic overnight. So what is working now? Katie and I break it down: it’s time to stop chasing SEO and start building a memorable brand that people search for by name. Show Notes: MiloTree FREEBIE: Write Your Ebook in Under 2 Hours FREEBIE: Create a Lead Magnet in 10 Minutes Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Foodie Brand Lab Use code PODCAST to save $50 on Katie’s course Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: YouTube iTunes Spotify Why SEO-Only Blogging No Longer Works Let’s face it—depending on SEO traffic and ads was once a goldmine. Bloggers who mastered keyword research could build passive income machines. But now? With Google’s updates and AI tools like ChatGPT answering simple questions instantly, those days are behind us. Katie shared how even her most high-performing posts like “how to cook dried chickpeas” are losing relevance—not because they’re bad, but because users now ask AI instead of clicking through to a blog. What’s the solution? You Are the Unique Ingredient The only thing that can’t be copied by AI is you. Whether you’re sharing chocolate chip cookie recipes or parenting tips, your voice, values, personality, and brand are what make you stand out. Katie puts it perfectly: “The only truly unique thing about your recipe is you.” That means showing up as a real person—on video, in your writing, and across your digital products. And yes, that means being relatable and even a little imperfect. 👉 Want to turn your personality into profit? Start by offering a freebie that reflects your brand’s values. With MiloTree’s Free Plan, you can set up an AI-generated opt-in page, deliver your freebie automatically, and grow your list—all for free. How to Build a Brand That Grows Your Business Think of a brand not just as your logo or colors—but as a living ecosystem. Your brand is the answer to the question: “Why you?” Katie recommends building your brand around a problem you solve. For example: Healthy food bloggers might solve: “What meals are best for gut health?” Parenting bloggers might solve: “How do I entertain my kids with purpose?” Pet bloggers might solve: “What does my dog really need to thrive?” Every blog post, video, product, or freebie you create should solve that core problem in a consistent, recognizable way. Why Being Personal Matters (But Oversharing Doesn’t) There’s a fine line between being personal and being personable. You don’t have to share your entire life story—but giving your audience a glimpse into who you are builds trust. Not everyone will “get” your vibe—and that’s the point. Your goal is to attract the right audience, not everyone. Katie gave this tip: If you’re unsure whether to share something, ask yourself: Does it build trust or authority? Does it add value? Does it align with my brand? If yes—share it. If not—skip it. Monetize by Solving Real Problems The best brands don't just blog. They sell. And here’s the secret: the stronger your brand, the easier it is to sell your digital products—because your audience already trusts you. All in one place. No tech skills required. Take Action: Build Your Brand and Start Making Money The internet is flooded with generic content. The only way to stand out and build a sustainable business is by being unmistakably you. Here’s how to get started: ✅ Identify the big problem you solve ✅ Offer a freebie around it using MiloTree ✅ Start showing up as yourself—in your content, your videos, and your offers ✅ Create digital products that reflect your brand ✅ Keep it simple, human, and helpful 🚀 Want help?

So focus on solving one problem fast. Step 3: Write a Short, Powerful eBook (10–30 Pages) Your ebook doesn’t need to be long. In fact, shorter is better if it delivers transformation.

    Why LinkedIn Is a Hidden Goldmine for Creators in 2025

    If you’re a blogger, coach, or creator, LinkedIn might seem like the last place you’d go to grow your business. Isn't it just for corporate jobs and stuffy networking? Not anymore. In my latest Blogger Genius Podcast episode, I interviewed LinkedIn expert Louise Brogan, and she opened my eyes: LinkedIn is a hidden goldmine for creators ready to stand out and sell. In this post, I’ll break down why LinkedIn is your next big opportunity, how to get started the right way, and how to use tools like MiloTree to build your audience effortlessly. Show Notes: MiloTree FREEBIE: AI Prompt for 10 Product Ideas in Uncertain Times FREEBIE: 3 AI Prompts You Need to Create a Freebie Cheatsheet FREEBIE: 13 AI Prompts to Write an Ebook in Under 3 Hours Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Louise Brogan Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: YouTube iTunes Spotify Why LinkedIn is the Hidden Opportunity You Can’t Ignore Most bloggers and small business owners think LinkedIn is only for suits and corporate ladder climbers. But Louise shared a surprising truth: ✅ People on LinkedIn have money to spend — and they’re looking for new hobbies, services, and products. ✅ Less competition — Only 2% of LinkedIn users post content! ✅ Engaged audiences — These aren’t passive scrollers. LinkedIn users are more likely to buy, connect, and hire. If you’ve been hit hard by Google updates or you’re frustrated with Instagram’s algorithm, LinkedIn offers a fresh place to be seen and heard — especially if you’re creative, independent, or selling digital products. How to Start Growing Your Business on LinkedIn You don’t need to reinvent the wheel to succeed on LinkedIn. Here’s Louise’s simple, powerful strategy: 1. Optimize Your Profile Think of your LinkedIn profile as your storefront. Louise recommends making it immediately clear: Who you help How you help them What action you want them to take next (hint: link to your freebie, blog, or store) Pro Tip: Your profile should focus more on your audience’s needs than your own resume. 2. Post Just Twice a Week Unlike Instagram or TikTok where you need to post daily, LinkedIn works best with just 1–2 posts a week. Some ideas: Share quick tips or advice related to your niche. Ask engaging questions that invite comments. Tell short stories that connect to your brand. 👉 Important: Don’t spam with links! Instead, draw people to click through to your profile, where they’ll find all your goodies. 3. Use LinkedIn Newsletters Louise dropped a golden tip: Create a LinkedIn Newsletter. Every new connection is invited to subscribe. You can include links to your blog, freebies, and products inside the newsletter. Best of all, newsletters get sent to subscribers’ email inboxes — not just buried in LinkedIn feeds. Imagine growing a second email list on autopilot! Why LinkedIn Is Perfect for Selling Digital Products and Growing Your Email List At MiloTree, we’re all about making business simple. That’s why this strategy pairs perfectly with MiloTree’s free tools. With MiloTree’s Free Plan, you can: Create an AI-generated opt-in page in under 5 minutes. Upload your freebie (cheat sheet, mini-course, coupon — anything!). Start collecting emails while you sleep. Sell digital products without needing complicated tech. Whether you're sending LinkedIn visitors to your freebie or newsletter, MiloTree makes it easy to capture those leads and turn them into customers. 👉 Ready to set up your free MiloTree account?
