I'm testing this with my first digital product.
I built an Excel finance tracker for small businesses to track sales, expenses, profit, pricing, and break-even.
I'm currently trying to find my first real customers and learn which channel works best.
I'd love to hear what has worked for other Gumroad creators.
Here's the product if anyone wants to take a look:

Getting the first consistent sales on Gumroad usually feels less like a launch and more like a slow validation loop.
A lot of early products don’t fail because of pricing, but because the audience signal isn’t strong enough before the first post goes live.
What channel ended up driving your very first real buyer — search, social, or direct outreach?

I’m building *Gumroad Sales Mastery* because too many talented creators struggle to turn their work into sales. It exists to give people a clear, practical system to launch, market, and sell.
