6 Simple Digital Product Ideas For Women With ADD

When you’re diagnosed with ADD later in life, the world can suddenly look very different. What once felt like failure begins to make sense. The overwhelm, the half-finished projects, the brilliant ideas followed by burnout—it’s all part of a brain that’s wired to work differently.

So when it comes to starting an online business, we need options that feel manageable, flexible, and forgiving. Especially when we’re just beginning.

That’s why I put together this list of simple, beginner-friendly digital product ideas. These aren’t high-tech or high-pressure. They’re low-barrier, low-stress, and designed to help you start—without needing to finish perfectly.

1. Printable Checklists or Trackers

Do you already use checklists to stay focused? You can turn them into digital products. Think:

• Morning routine tracker
• Weekly planner
• Medication tracker
• Self-care checklist

Why it works: You’re likely already making these for yourself. They’re easy to design in Canva and sell on Etsy or a Stan Store.

2. Simple Google Docs or Sheets

You don’t even need design tools. A thoughtfully structured Google Doc can become a product:

• “Brain Dump Journal” (with prompts)
• “Weekly Focus Planner”
• “Creative Idea Bank” template

Why it works: No tech, no downloads. You just create the file and give buyers a link.

3. Affirmation Cards or Mindset Mini-Decks

If you love journaling or words, try creating a themed affirmation set:

• “Affirmations for the Distracted but Determined”
• “Gentle Business Beliefs for Late Bloomers”

Why it works: These can be shared as a PDF or printable. You don’t need to design a whole deck—just a few pages of calming, empowering phrases.

4. Templates for Other Beginners

You don’t need to be an expert—just a step ahead. You could offer:

• Basic to-do list templates
• Canva templates for quote posts
• Simple blog post outlines

Why it works: Many people struggle with getting started. Templates remove that friction.

5. Tiny Guides or Tip Sheets

Think of one area where you’ve learned how to work with your brain—and share what’s helped you:

• “How I Stay Focused with ADD in the Mornings”
• “My 3-Step Reset Routine for Overwhelm”

Why it works: These can be written in a single Google Doc and sold as a mini digital guide.

6. Creative Prompts or Journaling Pages

If you like expressive writing or art, try creating themed prompt packs:

• “5-Minute Mindset Shifts”
• “Journal Prompts for Scattered Creatives”

Why it works: Prompts invite reflection without pressure. Many people want to journal but don’t know where to start.

Where to Sell Them

• Etsy: Great for printables and planners
• Stan Store: Excellent for linking in your Instagram bio
• Gumroad: Simple setup for PDFs and digital files
• Your Website or Newsletter: Let people buy directly from you

Start Small. Let It Be Easy.

You don’t have to build a course or write an eBook right away. You can start with something that feels light and possible. Something that makes you feel proud, not overwhelmed.

Remember, the goal isn’t to be perfect. It’s to begin.

Start with something small. Build gently. Thrive deeply.
