10 Lessons from Selling $10M of Digital Products

What to study

Scale & Specificity

  • The title's ten million sounds big but tidy.
  • The image then shows a longer, messier number trailing off screen, like a live counter.
  • That precise figure feels real in a way round numbers never do, and the hush gesture frames the lessons as insider knowledge.
How the packaging works
Title

The title stakes the claim with ten lessons and a ten million figure.

Thumbnail

The image adds a precise running total and a keep-it-quiet gesture.

Remix this

When your title uses a round number, put a precise, uneven version in the image instead. Never repeat the same figure on both surfaces. The odd digits do the believing for you.
