A beginner-friendly guide for aspiring online entrepreneurs (especially my shy girls 🤍)
A few years ago, I had no idea what “digital marketing” even meant. I just knew one thing: I wanted to stop struggling financially. I wanted to create a better life for my family, and I needed a way out of the 9-5 grind.
If you’re in that same space scrolling online, feeling overwhelmed by all the “make money online” noise I see you. And I wrote this for you.
Let’s break it down.
So, what exactly is digital marketing?
At its core, digital marketing is how we share and sell things using the internet. It’s how businesses (and people like you and me!) promote products and services online without needing a storefront, a degree, or a big budget.
If you’ve ever clicked on a Pinterest pin, saved a TikTok tutorial, or signed up for a freebie on Instagram, congrats you’ve already experienced digital marketing in action!
Some common digital marketing strategies include:
SEO (Search Engine Optimization): Getting your content to show up on Google.
Content Marketing: Sharing value through blogs, pins, or guidesto attract your audience.
Social Media Marketing: Promoting your offers through platforms like IG, TikTok, or Pinterest.
Email Marketing: Building a list of subscribers and nurturing them with helpful, trust-building emails.
Why digital products are the secret sauce 🍯
Digital products are items you can sell and deliver online like:
Ebooks
Canva templates
Notion planners
Online courses
Affirmation cards
Printables
Checklists
The beautiful thing? You create them once, and they can sell over and over again. No shipping. No inventory. Just value-packed content that helps people and makes you money.
And if creating them from scratch sounds scary, there are ready-made options (like Master Resell Rights products) that you can start promoting right away.
Why I love digital marketing (and why it works for introverts like us)
Let’s be real: I’m not the loudest in the room. I’m not the girl who loves going live or talking on camera. But with digital marketing, I found a way to build income quietly through intentional strategy and faceless content.
Here’s what makes it so powerful:
✨ You can start with zero experience
✨ You can learn as you go (there are affordable courses out there I started with one too!)
✨ You don’t have to show your face
✨ You can work from anywhere
✨ And the income potential? It’s real
How to get started (without the overwhelm)
You don’t need a fancy website or huge following to start. You need:
A niche (aka the problem you want to help people solve)
A product (digital is best easy, scalable, and beginner-friendly)
A strategy (and yes, I can help with that 👇🏽)
Start exploring tools like Canva, Gumroad, or Stan Store.
Grab a beginner-friendly digital marketing course (check out my recommendations at PearlDigitalHub.com).
Or simply start by creating content around the things you love or have learned.
My final word to you…
God put that vision in your heart for a reason. If you’ve been praying for a way out, a way up, or just a way to breathe a little easier financially this might be it.
Digital marketing isn’t just for the techy or the trendy. It’s for the quiet ones. The mothers. The dreamers. The faith-driven women ready to build something of their own.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
