Printable gift cards are also a great option as they have their own featured category in the gift shop and they are relatively easy to make. I thought it might be nice to include some cute, unique wording ideas to help get you thinking about what you could make!

So what makes a great gift when it comes to digital products?
Here are three things to think about when creating…
Make it unique
Customers love unique items, and the beauty of digital products is that they can be personalized to a great extent. Even templates offer the option of customization. Whether it’s custom artwork, personalized planners, or unique printables, the key is to offer something that can’t be found in a regular store and has the personal touch. Think about how your product can be tailored to the recipient’s interests or needs.
Focus on quality
Just because it’s a digital product doesn’t mean quality should be compromised – in fact, when it comes to digital gifts, it’s better to double down and make sure everything is fine-tuned and really well presented. Make sure you use high-resolution graphics, and take time laying out any typography, making sure it’s clear. When it comes to font, make sure you don’t go below 8pt in size – and for gifts for those with older eyes, 10pt is much better.
Make sure your digital gift is easy to access
A lot of gift givers could be buying a last-minute printable and can feel under pressure. For downloadable items, provide clear instructions on how to download and use them, with the bonus of some tips for printing (like paper types and settings). The easier it is for the customer to enjoy their gift, the better. The experience they will have with your product will be greatly enhanced.
Finally, as I mentioned, printable gift cards are also a great option as they have their own featured category in the gift shop and they are relatively easy to make. I thought it might be nice to include some cute, unique wording ideas to help get you thinking about what you could make!
