Teacher curriculum digital products
Create and sell original curriculum materials, lesson plans, and teaching resources to other educators as digital downloads.
The idea, in plain language
A teacher packages lesson plans and curriculum materials she wished she had as a Waldorf educator and sells them online to other teachers as digital downloads. Revenue comes from one-time sales of reusable digital products, built from professional knowledge that already exists. Startup cost is essentially zero beyond a computer, an e-commerce storefront, and time to write the content. The single episode does not quote revenue figures.
Where the sources agree
- Digital products built from existing professional knowledge are the core of the model
- Low startup cost and reusable assets
- Distribution is via an online storefront aimed at other educators
