5 product types you can sell

Sell downloads like Charli Marie

We’re huge fans of Charli Marie. As a designer, vlogger, and podcaster, Charli has built a personal brand around helping designers perfect their craft. A strong name in the design community, it’s no surprise that Charli’s an avid font collector, though she had never taken the leap to actually create one from scratch — until now.

Vectorizing. Spacing. Kerning. As a side project, Charli created her first handmade font, a sans serif based on her handwriting. Though she spent months meticulously creating Grayscale, it’s now a digital product for sale on her Webflow Ecommerce store — no shipping or restocks needed.

Selling digital goods is passive income at its finest.

“As someone who’s experienced selling physical products, it’s just so much easier creating digital ones. It’s just nice to see orders coming through for this font and know that the system’s all doing it for me and that I’m not actually having to go print a T-shirt and put it in the post to people,” Charli said in her Design Life podcast where she shared her full design process.

Offer services like Districtt

People move an average of 12 times before they buy a house — that’s a whole lot of furniture to buy and move. Districtt founders Trey and Cameron have built a solution in Atlanta and Dallas that’s flexible, affordable and sustainable. The rental furniture company provides beautiful, curated furniture products for a low monthly price — all using Webflow Ecommerce.

“It has always been a challenge to find an ecommerce solution for a service business. Unlike Shopify, Webflow allows you to edit the checkout process on any plan. That's enough of a selling point right there,” said Districtt co-founder founder Trey Williams.

Take donations like Feed the Frontline

With the COVID-19 pandemic sweeping the world, local communities have banded together to serve and protect their own. This is the case in New Orleans, where Devin De Wulf, founder of the cultural Mardi Gras club Krewe of Red Beans, organized a 6-week effort to feed the 2300+ healthcare workers in the city. #feedthefrontlineNOLA raised more than $1 million dollars through Webflow Ecommerce.

When approached with the project, designer Chris Fettin of Hundred Acre Design had to get the website up fast, and Webflow allowed him to do it all without the help of a developer. It took one weekend to get the site up and running. When the campaign got featured in The New York Times, CNN, and in local coverage, the donations began rolling in.

“Every day I would wake up and I was excited to log into Webflow and see how many people had donated, and every day I was surprised,” Fettin said.
