Don’t want to spend 6 weeks designing a Canva template you’re not even sure will sell?

Cool—you don’t have to.

This guide will teach you everything you need to know about done-for-you digital products and show you a list of products you can start selling without creating anything from scratch.

WTF Are Done-for-You Digital Products?

Done-for-you digital products are pre-made assets you can tweak a little (or not at all) and resell as your own—even if your design skills are straight-up trash.

They’re built to save you time, skip the tech headaches, and start generating cash faster than the traditional “build a digital product from scratch” route.

We’re talking:

• Courses
• Ebooks
• Planners
• Digital journals
• Notion templates
• Canva templates
• Workbooks
• Checklists & cheat sheets

The Right to Resell Done-for-You Digital Products

Not all done-for-you products are created equal.

Some are basically copyrighted content with resale permission. Others give you full creative control.

They usually come with modern digital rights like Private Label Rights (PLR) and Master Resell Rights (MRR).

PLR = Private Label Rights

This is the holy grail of customization.

• Comes with editable source files (think: Canva, Word, Notion, raw video clips, etc.)
• You can rebrand it, rewrite it, redesign it, and call it yours
• Resell it on your own store, bundle it, or include it in a paid course

The advantages are that:

✅ You get the most control
✅ You can slap your name on it and build your authority
✅ It’s perfect if you want something “done for you” but not cookie-cutter

MRR = Master Resell Rights

Less control, still powerful.

• You can’t edit the files (usually)

• But you can sell the product as-is and keep 100% of the profit

• You can also let your buyers resell it, too

It’s kind of like digital affiliate marketing—with a one-time buy-in and unlimited payouts.

How to Make Money with DFY Digital Products (3 Real Ways)

1. Instant Resale

Buy the product, tweak the design or don’t, slap on a bold title if necessary and resell it like you made the damn thing.

If you want bigger bucks, buy a number of done-for-you digital products, bundle them, and resell.

Why does this work?

Bundles = more perceived value = higher price

You don’t need to create every piece—just curate, customize, and cash out.

2. Use as a Bonus (and Look Generous AF)

Sell your own product or service.

Then, toss in the DFY digital product as a “free bonus” to sweeten the deal.

Here’s how the math works:

• You pay $497 for a done-for-you digital product
• You sell your main thing for $997+
• You give away the $497 product as a “free $497 bonus”

Your audience will feel they are getting extra value.

You build your brand—not the brand associated with the PLR or MRR digital product.

And you look like you’re giving away gold while other resellers are out here charging for it.

3. Turn DFY Into High-Converting Lead Magnets

Use DFY digital products as instant freebies to build your email list.

Then, promote your own paid product or service via the email list.

Here are examples:

• Free planner → Welcome sequence → Paid product
• Free checklist → Nurture funnel → Affiliate offers or upsells

Let someone else make the thing. You just focus on getting clicks, signups, and sales.

Why Done-for-You Products Are a No-Brainer for Digital Hustlers

Here’s why DFY products are the ultimate shortcut:

🔥 Skip the creation phase. You don’t need to be a designer, fluent course instructor, or tech wizard for setup.
🔥 Start selling today. Some products are so ready that you can list them right now.
🔥 Low cost, high margin. You buy once and resell multiple times.
🔥 Test before you build. Validate a niche without wasting time making something from scratch.

Where the Hell Do You Find These DFY Goldmines?

You don’t need to dig through sketchy Facebook groups. Here’s where the good stuff lives:

• TikTok – If you’re like me, your FYP is flooded with digital product and make-money-online content. If you click on the links in the bios, you’ll find that most of what they’re selling are DFY products you can resell, too. Or just search the platform for PLR or MRR products.
• Etsy – Yep, people sell DFY packs on Etsy, too. Just make sure you get commercial rights.

How to Stand Out So You Actually Sell This Stuff

Here’s the harsh truth:

Everyone has access to done-for-you digital products. The ones who make money are the ones who market smarter.

• Niche the hell down. Instead of selling a “Budget Template,” sell a “Single-Mom Budgeting Kit for Getting Out of Debt.”

• Brand it like you give a damn. Slap your colors, fonts, and voice on it. Don’t be lazy.

• Build a funnel, not a hope. Have a traffic source (blog, TikTok, Pinterest) and a way to collect emails.

• Upsell and cross-sell. One product is cool. But bundles and upsells = real revenue.

Final Word: Done-for-You Doesn’t Mean Done-for-Nothing

Yes, DFY digital products save you time. Yes, they make starting a digital biz 100x easier.

But don’t think you can sit back and just collect PayPal notifications without doing shit.

Put in the effort where it counts:

• Find a niche that needs your product

• Customize it (if you have the right to do so) so it looks like yours

• Build the damn sales funnel

• Drive traffic like your bank account depends on it—because it might

Done-for-you doesn’t mean you don’t hustle. It just means you hustle smarter.
