Every AI consultant should have a product line. Here is why.
The Revenue Problem
Consulting is time-for-money. Even at $300/hr, you hit a ceiling.
Products solve this:
- Sell while you sleep
- Serve clients who cannot afford consulting
- Build authority and credibility
- Create a funnel to consulting services
The Product Ladder
| Product | Price | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Free lead magnet | $0 | Capture emails |
| Prompt library | $47-97 | Low-barrier entry |
| Framework guide | $97-197 | Build authority |
| Complete system | $197-497 | Pre-consulting |
How Products Feed Consulting
Someone buys your $147 AI Automation Playbook. They implement 3 automations. They realize they need help scaling. That is a $15,000 consulting project.
The product is not the business. It is the top of the consulting funnel.
Getting Started
- Document what you already know (your methodology)
- Package it as a PDF or course
- Price based on value, not length
- Use Gumroad (free until you sell)
