The Idea Check
Could the thing you already make pay you every month?
What do you make? Art or product
You don't need a huge audience or a complicated plan. Say the thing itself, not just the theme — 'bunny art prints,' not 'bunnies.'
You don't need a new product every month. You need one thing people want again.
This is for people who make physical things: candles, stationery, art, soap, jewelry, snacks, and more. Not for course creators or coaches.
I learned this by trying the model myself.
Before my Tea Towel Club grew to around 2,500 members, I tried a quarterly box, a yearlong Block of the Month, and a Pen Pal Club. Start small. Prove it. Then decide if you want to grow it.

How the Idea Check works
I wrote every word of this note. To find the places and the examples, software reads what you typed, works out the words people actually use to search for it, and matches it to real shops from a list I built by hand. Every link is a live search or a live shop. Nothing here is invented, and nothing is a prediction. Income figures are gross and illustrative, not a promise.
