THE SIMPLEST PRODUCT
Sell a PDF.
That's a business.
One file, one price, one link. It sounds too simple to work, which is exactly why most people never try it.
A PDF is the humblest product on the internet and one of the most reliable. It costs nothing to duplicate, never runs out of stock, delivers itself and can be updated forever. Guides, planners, checklists, recipes, workbooks, templates — if you can write it down and export it, you can sell it from a link.
STEP 1
Make or export the file
Write it in whatever you already use, then export to PDF. If the writing is the blocker, describe the topic and let Fanzy draft it — you edit rather than start from a blank page.
- ✓Any writing tool works
- ✓AI drafting available
- ✓Cover art generated for you
STEP 2
Give it a page and a price
Upload the file, add a cover and a short description, set the price. That page is now a real product page with its own link you can put anywhere.
- ✓Its own shareable link
- ✓Optional discount price
- ✓Live immediately
STEP 3
Delivery happens without you
Buyer pays, buyer downloads, receipt sends. If you update the PDF later, new buyers get the new version automatically — no re-uploading anywhere else.
- ✓Secure, expiring links
- ✓Automatic receipts
- ✓Update the file any time

Good questions
›Is this actually free to start?
Yes — your page at store.fan/yourname, unlimited link cards, 28 themes and email capture are free forever, with no card and no expiry. You only pay when you want to sell: Starter is $24/month, Pro $49/month, both with a 14-day free trial.
›Will I definitely make money?
Nobody can promise that, and anyone who does is selling you something. What we can promise is the mechanics: a page that takes payments, delivers files instantly and keeps 100% of the price on paid plans. Whether it sells depends on whether the thing you make is useful to someone — which is why we suggest starting small and specific.
›Do I need followers first?
It helps, but the store also builds an audience: every visitor can join your email list for free, and every buyer is added to your customer list. Plenty of people start by sharing with the group chats, forums and communities they're already part of.
›What can a beginner realistically sell?
A guide, a template, a checklist, a plan, a set of photos or presets, a recorded walkthrough — anything you can put in a file. If you've solved a problem that other people also have, the written-down version of that solution is a product.
›How do I get paid?
Through your own Stripe account. Buyers pay by card, Stripe deposits into your bank on its normal schedule, and we take 0% of the sale on paid plans — the subscription is our whole business model.
