- You Don’t Need a Product. You Need a Process.
You Don’t Need a Product. You Need a Process.
Process. Systems. Product.
Most creators think what they need is a product.
What they really need... is a process.
On a call today, I spoke with two young founders building a community for creators helping them with consistency and creativity.
They had content. A community. A vision.
But they didn’t have a process.
What they were missing wasn’t a Notion dashboard or a digital product.
What they needed was a system that did 3 things:
Taught their core beliefs through workflows – not just modules.
Made their brand tangible – turning their “creative North Star” into daily actions.
Created progress people could see and feel – so members keep going.
Here’s what I told them: “You’re not building a template. You’re building a system for your message.”
Because if you’re selling creativity, consistency, collaboration—it has to show up as a lived experience.
And that experience is shaped by the system you give them.
Not just a Google Doc. Not just a Notion page. Not just another course.
A process that people follow through a system.
Because a system is only a byproduct of defining the process.
And once you have a process for getting results, you have a product.
You just need some help packaging it and selling it to your audience.
Which is something I can help with.
If you are a coach, consultant or creator with a large following, educating people online, and you want to turn your process (the thing you teach about) into a system and sell that system as a digital product to make passive income, then reply “Monetize” and I’ll send you some more details.
Turn your process into a system.
