How to Create Sellable Products When You Have Kids Running Around

With everything that’s happened in the world in the wake of COVID-19, a lot of us have gotten stuck in a rut and having our kids home all the time has taken a toll on our creative processes. However, to create sellable products, we have to find ways to jolt ourselves out of that foggy state of mind.

How can we kickstart our creativity during this period? Is it even possible to run a business smoothly in-between home-schooling our children and keeping them entertained?

While we have to give ourselves grace in this time, at the end of the day, we have businesses to run and things to do. 

On this episode, we discuss how to create sellable products while we’re trapped in survival mode.

3 Things You'll Learn in this Episode

1. Stay creative by breaking brainstorming sessions up into 10-minute periods.
2. A lot of us are struggling to get good quality sleep at the moment, but to be creative as possible, we have to make sure we’re getting enough rest. Take naps with the kids or download an app with sleep stories.
3. Once we’ve created a product, it’s important we keep it as simple as possible. Now more than ever, people are easily overwhelmed and anything that seems complicated will struggle to sell.
