If you’re a busy mom dreaming of financial freedom but don’t have endless

hours to commit to building a business, this guide is for you! Let’s face it:

between meal preps, endless laundry, and the occasional (or frequent)

toddler meltdown, time is your most precious resource. The good news?

Digital products are the ultimate low-maintenance business idea, and

creating them can be as easy as managing your family’s daily chaos.

Here are five beginner-friendly digital products moms can create and sell

right from their kitchen table — or wherever the kids aren’t climbing! 😉

Starter Kit

1. Meal Planners and Grocery Lists

Why they work: Everyone eats, and busy moms are constantly looking for

ways to simplify mealtime. Meal planners and grocery lists are lifesavers

that save time, money, and sanity.

How to start:

  • Use Canva (trust me, it’s easier than convincing a toddler to eat broccoli) to create customizable, printable meal planners.
  • Add sections for weekly dinners, snacks, and even budget-friendly shopping tips.

Pro tip: Include themed meal plans, like “30-Minute Dinners for Busy Moms” or “Healthy Lunchbox Ideas.”

Sell it: List your creations on Etsy or Gumroad. Pair them with a freebie, like a one-week meal plan, to build your email list.

2. eBooks

Why they work: You have knowledge — even if it’s “How to Get Crayon Off

Walls Without Losing Your Mind.” Moms love practical advice and

inspiration.

How to start:

  • Choose a topic you’re passionate about, like parenting hacks, self-care tips, or budget-friendly family activities.
  • Use tools like Google Docs or Scrivener to write your eBook. Don’t overthink — start with an outline and go from there.
  • Keep it short and sweet (10–20 pages). Your readers are moms, too, and likely reading in five-minute increments between diaper changes.

Sell it: Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) is a great platform for beginners. Promote your eBook on social media and in parenting groups.

3. Activity Printables

Why they work: Need five minutes of peace? Hand your kid a printable

activity sheet. Other moms will pay for that same five minutes of magic.

How to start:

  • Create coloring pages, scavenger hunts, or educational worksheets for toddlers to tweens.
  • Use free tools like Canva or Procreate. Bonus points if you make them seasonally themed (e.g., Christmas coloring sheets or summer scavenger hunts).
  • Keep designs clean and visually appealing, but remember: kids are the real critics.

Sell it: Upload them to Etsy, Grumroad , or even your own website. Offer a bundle of 10–20 sheets for extra value.

4. Planners and Journals

Why they work: Planners and journals are not just products; they’re tools for moms to regain a sense of control amidst the chaos.

How to start:

  • Focus on a niche, like “Mompreneur Daily Planners,” “Self-Care Journals for Moms,” or “Kids’ Chore Trackers.”
  • Use digital design platforms to create templates that can be reused and customized.
  • Don’t forget to include ADHD-friendly features, like color-coded sections and quick notes areas.

Sell it: Market them as printable PDFs or even physical copies via a print-on-demand service like Printify.

5. Templates for Social Media or Business

Why they work: Moms starting their own businesses (like you!) are always

looking for tools to save time. Templates for Instagram posts, email

newsletters, or budget spreadsheets are hot sellers.

How to start:

  • Decide on a niche audience, like “Templates for Mom Bloggers” or “Budget Trackers for Families.”
  • Create templates in Canva that are user-friendly and visually appealing.
  • Offer a variety of formats to appeal to different buyers.

Sell it: Share your templates on Gumroad, Creative Market, or your own website. Bundle related templates for higher value.

Bonus Tips for ADHD Moms: Stay Motivated, Stay Organized

Creating digital products may sound overwhelming, but remember: small,

consistent steps add up. If your ADHD brain wants to chase 10 ideas at

once, jot them all down but start with just ONE. Progress over perfection,

always! 💪
