What kind of template should you sell? Here are some ideas...

The biggest piece of the puzzle… what to sell?

This decision makes the world of difference for easier sales down the road.

So I wanna make things a little bit easier and give you some ideas to get your own flowing.

But first off, lets talk just about about the decision making process of what to create. First choose your target audience, then find out from them what they need. (I offer help with this in my course Template Shop Takeoff)

These are the two questions you will want to ask yourself about your target audience:

1. What will save your people TIME?
