We’ve come to the end of the Gumroad 30 Day Challenge to build an audience and start your creative business. We’ve really enjoyed hearing from all of you who participated along the way about your goals and progress (keep those emails and Facebook group posts coming). So much, in fact, that we’re giving the challenge a permanent home. Now the 30 Day Challenge can be started at any time. Tell your friends! You can also invite them to join you on Gumroad using our Invites feature.

We want to keep the focused, hard work fun going, so we’re doing a short series of webinars with members of the Gumroad team. It’s a chance to go more in-depth on specific topics. The topics are based on feedback we received throughout the challenge. Have specific questions? Let us know by emailing 30daychallenge@gumroad.com ahead of time and we’ll be sure to cover them. To sign up to attend a webinar, click on the corresponding title below.

Creating and Sharing Your Work - Travis Nichols
Wednesday, February 4th at 10am
It can be easy to get hung up on results: clicks, retweets, views, contracts, deals, income. But focus should be on the work. Come with any questions you have on content creation, what kind of stuff to make and how often, creativity vs. career, and life as a freelancer/creative professional.

Developing Your Visual Brand - Alex Hertz
Thursday, February 5th at 10am
A compelling visual brand is key to making a lasting impression on your audience. We’ll talk about the key components of a visual brand and bringing these components to life. Come with questions you have about developing, maintaining, and growing your visual brand.

Building Your Newsletter - Jessica Jalsevac
Tuesday February 10th at 10am
Newsletters allow you to build a relationship with your audience before making any sort of sales pitch. Come with questions you have about getting ideas for newsletter content, optimizing your copy and call to action, and growing your subscribers. We’ll also go over the best ways to sell to your list.

Launching Your Product - Emmiliese von Clemm
Wednesday, February 11th at 10am
Developing a detailed launch timeline will help you get the most out of a new product’s launch. We’ll cover the ins and outs of building excitement and activating your audience around a new release. Come with any questions you have about announcing your launch, launch-day promotions, and maintaining momentum post-launch.


Keep up the great work! It’s our mission to help you make a living doing what you love. Let us know how we can help. If you didn’t complete all 30 tips in 30 days, don’t fret. It’s a lot for a month. Heck, it’s a lot for a year. But it’s totally doable. Starting and running a creative business is a whole forest of trees, and splitting it up into individual steps (er, trees) is an attempt to help make sense of it.

Every tip that we share through our Resource Center, our Help Center, our blog, and this challenge is something that we learned from our community. So thank you for being a part of it. And if you didn’t participate in the 30 Day Challenge, now’s your chance. What are you waiting for?
