SOP and Checklist Templates

What It Is

You write standard operating procedures: step-by-step documents for tasks like client onboarding, a weekly content workflow, a simple bookkeeping routine or a hiring process. You package them as single templates or full kits for a specific kind of business, such as an operations kit for a hair salon or an onboarding system for freelance designers, and sell them on Etsy or Gumroad. The creator says single SOPs sell for $15 to $100 and niche bundles for $200 to $500.

The Pitch

Every business owner knows they need these documents and keeps putting them off, the creator says, so they'll happily buy a ready-made version. You make each product once and sell it many times, with no clients to manage.

Who It’s Best For

Organized people who understand how a particular kind of business runs and can write clear instructions.

The Truth (as we see it)

Templates sell best when written by someone who knows the industry; generic ones compete with free versions everywhere. He notes the big catch: you depend on Etsy or Gumroad search, a good product can sit unsold for months, and reaching six figures usually means a large catalog plus your own marketing. The price ranges are his general figures, not shown sales.
