This ChatGPT Prompt Will Plan Your Digital Product and Launch Strategy in Minutes

Use ChatGPT to find ideas, create product and launch it.

In partnership with

Three years ago, I stared at my Gumroad dashboard. Zero sales. Zero followers. Zero clue what I was doing.

I’d spent weeks tinkering with ideas. I had drafts of ebooks, templates, even a “mini-course.” But I was stuck at the starting line.

I’ll tell you exactly what I changed to finally launch something that sold.

But let me ask you something:

What if the problem isn’t a lack of ideas? What if you’re sitting on way too many ideas… and that’s what’s stopping you?

I’ll help you narrow it down today, with five proven product ideas you can build right now using ChatGPT. And I won’t stop there.

I’ll walk you through exactly how to launch them on Gumroad—step by step, without guesswork.

Ready?

Prompt Overview 

Here’s the ChatGPT prompt that unlocks this process:

“As a product strategist, recommend 5 easy-to-make digital products for [niche] I can build with ChatGPT, and guide me through launching them on Gumroad step-by-step.”

Simple?

But behind that simplicity is a powerful shortcut.

Instead of spending months “figuring out” what to sell, you’re using AI to filter your niche, product type, and launch process into one clear roadmap.

This prompt doesn’t just spit out ideas. It gives you a launch plan.

I’ll show you what that looks like.

But, why use this prompt at all?

Why Use This Prompt?

Quick confession: I wasted six months trying to brainstorm “the perfect product.”

I kept bouncing between ebook ideas, templates, tutorials… paralyzed by too many options.

What finally helped?

A prompt like this. It forced me to stop thinking in the abstract and start looking at viable, shippable ideas.

Why this prompt works so well:

  • It removes the blank page problem. Instead of staring into the void, you get specific product types tailored to your niche.

  • It aligns with proven product formats. The prompt pushes ChatGPT to suggest what’s working now, not just random ideas.

  • It adds execution steps. Most people stop at the “idea.” This prompt makes ChatGPT provide an actual launch checklist.

  • It forces clarity. When you see 5 ideas in front of you, you start thinking in terms of “next step,” not “someday.”

I can’t overstate how much this saved my sanity.

And if you’re anything like me (a creator who’s tired of spinning in circles) this prompt gives you a path forward.

But where does this actually work best?

Best Use Cases

You’ll get the most out of this prompt if:

  • You’re a solopreneur building an audience

  • You want to sell a digital product under $50

  • You’re active in a specific niche community

  • You don’t have coding/design skills but can write/edit

  • You’re aiming for speed to launch, not perfection

For example, if you’re in:

✔️ Personal finance

✔️ Fitness coaching

✔️ Parenting advice

✔️ Writing & publishing

✔️ Mental health & wellness

…this prompt can deliver highly specific product blueprints tailored to what people already want.

But here’s a warning:

You don’t need five products. You need one product that you actually finish.

So let’s go from “idea overload” to action.

I’ll show you how the prompt plays out.

The Prompt (Copy & Paste)

Here’s the exact wording you can copy into ChatGPT:

As a product strategist, recommend 5 easy-to-make digital products for [niche] I can build with ChatGPT, and guide me through launching them on Gumroad step-by-step.

Replace [your niche] with something like:

  • “freelance writers”

  • “busy moms”

  • “new real estate agents”

  • “beginner podcast creators”

Let ChatGPT do the heavy lifting.

You’ll likely get 5 products like:

  1. A 30-page ebook

  2. A set of templates

  3. A mini email course

  4. A swipe file

  5. A Notion dashboard

Here’s what’s key: Don’t pick the “most exciting” one. Pick the easiest to finish within 7 days.

The first product I tried was a video course, and I never finished. The second was a PDF template… I launched it in 3 days and made my first $129.

Not glamorous. But real.

Now, once you’ve picked a product idea, how do you actually get it live?

Let’s break it down.

Step-by-Step: Launching on Gumroad

You’ve got your product idea. Great. Here’s the simple launch roadmap:

1️⃣ Create the product with ChatGPT

Ask ChatGPT for:

  • An outline

  • A draft

  • Headings/subheadings

  • Sample content

Pro tip: Use it as a co-writer, not a ghostwriter. Edit, personalize, inject your voice.

For templates, ask it to draft the copy or formulas you’ll paste into a Notion/Google Doc/Canva file.

Done? Move on.

2️⃣ Package the product

  • Export your ebook as PDF

  • Export templates as PDFs or Google Drive links

  • Zip multiple files together if needed

Name your files clearly: Freelance_Pitch_Template_v1.pdf

Don’t overcomplicate.

3️⃣ Set up your Gumroad product page

Head to gumroad.com → Products → New product.

Fill out:

  • Product title (clear, not cute)

  • Description (what’s the transformation?)

  • Upload file

  • Set a price (start low: $9-$29)

  • Add a thumbnail image (Canva is your tool)

Don’t aim for perfection. You can edit later.

4️⃣ Write your launch post/email/tweet

This is where most people freeze.

Remember: Your audience doesn’t care about your “product features.” They care about what problem it solves.

Example:

“Struggling to write cold emails that get responses? I created a plug-and-play freelance pitch template so you never stare at a blank screen again. Grab it for $19 here: [link]”

Simple. Direct. Human.

5️⃣ Launch, even if nobody’s waiting

Don’t wait for a “big audience.” Don’t wait for 100 subscribers. Don’t wait for “everything to be perfect.”

Just launch.

I launched to 12 people on my list. I made 3 sales.

Small? Sure.

But those 3 people proved something priceless: Someone, somewhere, wanted what I created.

That gave me the confidence to keep going.

Tips for Better Results

Let me save you some pain:

  • Start with the simplest product you can finish this week

  • Keep your price low to remove friction

  • Use testimonials from your first buyers (even one-liners)

  • Don’t expect Gumroad to magically send traffic—promote it yourself

  • Use “pay what you want” pricing if you’re nervous about charging

Above all: ship fast. Iterate later.

Don’t fall into the “next product will be better” trap. Each launch teaches you what works.

I bombed my first course. Zero buyers.

But the $9 Notion template I launched next? It sold 18 copies in two days.

Go figure.

If you’re overwhelmed by choices… If you’re stuck at the “idea” stage… If you’ve been waiting to start for months…

This prompt is your way forward.

It won’t magically do the work for you. But it gives you a clear starting line—and a map to the finish.

One product. One launch. One sale.

That’s how it starts.

And in a year?

You’ll look back and wonder why you waited so long.

So what’s your niche?

Drop it into the prompt and let’s see what you’ll create.

Thanks for reading!

Best,
