I don't get many business owners who want to come on the show and share that their first product didn't sell at all, but I am so glad that Raina Willick joined me to tell her story. Even though her first product failed from a sales perspective, she doesn't consider it a failure. She learned a lot and grew from the experience. We also chat about potential digital products for her new venture, Baguette Bound.

Everything you think about digital products is wrong.

As I was putting together the season 2 bonus episode with all of the advice from the digital product creators of season 2, I realized that SO many of the ideas we have about digital products are just plain incorrect.

Today I walk through things you may think you need to be or do, but that no guest on the show has ever actually mentioned.
