Gumroad for Growth 101: The Set Up

I get this question A LOT!

If you've been on social media lately you've no doubt seen Gumroad links like this https://gumroad.com/a/238384243 (if you haven't yet, seriously you should take a look at this one). They are literally everywhere so much so that you may have clicked one to get here and not even noticed it. 

So why is Gumroad getting so popular? Why now?

I'm glad you asked. During the pandemic and even before creator have taken to Gumroad in record numbers as a means to share their content with the world. With most things taking place online or in some type of virtual space in general. E-commerce companies like Shopify and Amazon, Shopify, and Alibaba have seen their companies explode as a result. Those companies because they are bigger tend to cost more and require more from creators to set up. Gumroad is one of a few options available to creators that is cheap, effective and easy to use. You don’t need a huge following or a large amount of start-up capital to create this extra stream of income. In fact Gumroad has tools that help you grow your audience and has a built in connection to both Twitter and Facebook.

OK! So why this course?

Its easy to use and a great way to get you started on the road to building you brand and your business. This course is the same way.
