This is How I Promote my Digital Products to Get More Sales

I’ve been selling digital products online for five years now, and it’s been a wild ride. I’ve been through phases of selling nothing, checking my dashboard every few seconds, to 1000 dollar days.

It’s a process, but you don’t have to leave it to chance. Promote your digital products, and don’t be afraid to sell, sell, sell!

Here are some helpful tips to promote your digital products to get more traction and sales:

Reddit

Right now, my number one platform for promoting digital products is Reddit. Here, I don’t spam links, I leave helpful comments, and create insanely helpful posts in specific Reddit communities.

For example, I have an offer for busy parents, and so I post in parenting groups and respond to posts with helpful advice.

I have to admit, Reddit is a sensitive platform. You can get banned at any moment, I’ve been banned five times now, but I don’t quit. I keep going, and so far, I’ve made more than 2000 dollars from Reddit alone, promoting my Payhip digital products.

2.Flipboard

I use Flipboard to promote my articles, I don’t directly link my digital products there, but more traffic to your articles, will lead to more sales, eventually.

I share every article on Flipboard as part of my daily content marketing routine.

3.Pinterest

Pinterest is a goldmine, and it’s still underrated in my opinion. You can’t just post random pins though, you must follow a strategy. I recently came across an excellent video about Pinterest marketing, watch it here.

People forget that Pinterest isn’t a social media platform, it’s a visual search engine, and if you’re selling digital products and you’re not on Pinterest, you’re missing a trick. You’re also leaving money on the table, so if you sell finance, make money online, beauty, fashion, or lifestyle digital products, Pinterest is where it’s at.

Pinterest behaves like a quiet little search engine dressed up as a mood board, which makes it one of the sneakiest powerhouses for selling digital products. Here are five strong benefits of using it for promotion:

Pinterest brings you search-based traffic. Your pins keep showing up for months or even years after posting because people search for solutions, not creators. One useful pin can outwork a month of social media posts.

Pinterest buyers already have “solution energy.” They’re looking for templates, guides, planners, checklists, and tutorials. They’re in a shopping mindset, which makes conversions easier.

Your content compounds over time. Unlike platforms where posts vanish in 48 hours, Pinterest grows in visibility the longer it lives. Old pins can be your top performers.

You attract warm, niche-friendly audiences. People search for specific problems, money management, content planning, wellness, business systems, so your digital products land in front of people who already want them.

Pinterest drives consistent traffic. Even on weeks you’re not posting much, your older pins keep funneling new viewers to your store, turning the platform into an always-on promotional engine.

If you explore how to layer Pinterest with your other platforms, it becomes part of a larger, beautifully self-operating ecosystem.

4.Digital Product Marketing Circles

These are underrated too. Digital product marketing circles are marketing communities and platforms that allow you to submit your digital products to niche specific communities and newsletter networks. It saves you time and energy because you only need to submit your links once.

I’ve heard people say that it’s not worth it because they submit links themselves however, you’d have to spend hours daily sending links out one by one. Whereas with digital product marketing circles, you just submit your link once.

5.Slideshare

I’ve been posting on Slideshare for years now, and it’s a great place to share your knowledge and build credibility as a thought leader or expert in your field. I post repurposed articles on there and share the slides on Pinterest, Flipboard, and my YouTube community wall.

The beauty of all these platforms is that none of them work in isolation. Each one is a little tributary feeding the same river: visibility, trust, and sales. The creator economy rewards consistency far more than perfection, and every post, pin, slide, and comment becomes another tiny worker bee carrying traffic back to your products.

Promotion isn’t a one-day sprint; it’s a rhythm you learn to dance with. Keep showing up, keep experimenting, and keep reminding people that what you’ve made has real value. When your marketing becomes part of your creative flow instead of an afterthought, the sales start feeling a lot less like luck and a lot more like momentum.
