And This Is Why I Keep Telling You… (plus new releases, a cool bonus, and more)

Happy Thursday!

No, that’s not it… What I and a few of my friends keep repeating to you about having a portfolio of products is exactly what happened to me yesterday (and why there was no newsletter.)

When I sat down to work yesterday morning after a workout and a lovely breakfast, there was an email from a good friend asking me if I had a product ready to go that I could submit to her event. It seems she had a couple of last minute cancellations, and she reached out to me because she knows I create quality products and can get the job done.

Fortunately I did have something that would work in her event, and so I spent most of yesterday cleaning the product up and getting it ready to submit. But if I hadn’t had something handy that I could submit, I would’ve had to say no. And if I didn’t have a reputation for creating good products that people like, I would’ve never had the opportunity to being with!

And that is why I keep repeating myself and telling you to always have products ready to go that you can use when you get a last minute invite to an event or need something new to run a quick sale. You never know where it’s going to lead and what doors it might open for you.

And now that that’s done and submitted, I can go back and finish my to-do list from yesterday which includes getting my bundle placeholder page and affiliate links ready and getting everything ready to add the second set of Zen-Style Hearts to the Valentine’s Content Sale.

So that’s what I’ll be doing today after I tell you about all the really cool content that’s being released today…

The New Zen-Style Hearts Pack is Ready!

The second set of Zen-Style Hearts Coloring Pages is ready and in the shop now. You can find the individual sales page here, and the LOVE2023 coupon will also work on this pack for you to save 25% through the end of January. Here’s a quick peek at the images in the pack:

Positivity Printables by Amy Harrop

One of my favourite products of 2022 was Amy Harrop’s Positivity Printables training. If you’re not sure what these are they are products like gratitude journals, affirmations coloring pages, habit trackers, vision boards, etc. Anything really that helps people be more positive and improve their lives. This is my all-time favourite content to create and I’ve spent years making planners and journals to serve the personal development niche.

Amy has updated this training to include a 30 Steps to Printable Success guide, and a set of Affirmation Card templates in both Canva and PPT formats.

Here’s what the main guide covers:

• What positivity printables are and why there is such a big market for them.
• The benefits of positivity products according to science.
• How to identify niches with high popularity and low competition.
• How to evaluate your competitors, including tips on evaluating prices, products, and more.
