When you sell digital products like templates, printables, eBooks, or swipe files, you’re not just selling a file. You’re selling permission to use that file in a specific way.

That’s what a license agreement does — it explains what your customers can and can’t do with your product. Without one, your buyers might assume they can resell, copy, or reuse your content however they want.

And that can turn into a big legal headache.

In this post, we’ll walk through how to write a digital product license agreement that protects your business, sets clear expectations, and avoids misuse of your content — without sounding like a law firm.

Running a membership site or subscription-based product is one of the smartest ways to build recurring revenue as a digital creator. Whether you offer monthly templates, weekly coaching, or access to a private community, subscriptions can be the foundation of a sustainable business.

But there’s one thing many creators don’t think about until it’s too late:

The legal side.

Membership models come with a unique set of legal requirements, especially when it comes to how you handle sign-ups, cancellations, and refunds. The FTC is cracking down on shady practices, and there’s a new rule you need to know about: Click to Cancel.

In this post, we’re breaking down the must-know legal rules for anyone running a paid membership or subscription product online.

If you're a digital product creator, chances are you’ve poured hours into building your course, designing your templates, or writing your eBook.

Now the big question:
How do you protect your work so it doesn’t get copied, resold, or misused?

This is where things like licensing, usage rights, and content protection come into play — and while it may sound overwhelming, it doesn’t have to be.

Let’s simplify what you need to know to stay protected and make things crystal clear for your buyers.

If you’re creating digital products like courses, printables, templates, or eBooks, you’ve probably had that moment of panic:

Wait... can someone steal my content?

Or maybe you’ve seen someone selling something eerily similar to your product and thought, “Can I protect this somehow?”

The short answer is yes. But there’s a lot of confusion out there around what you can copyright, what a trademark covers, and when you need to officially register something.

Let’s break it all down in simple, non-lawyer terms so you know how to protect your work and your brand without losing your mind (or your money).

If you're selling digital products — whether it’s templates, online courses, memberships, or printable planners — you’ve probably wondered:

Do I need to form an LLC? Or is a sole proprietorship enough?

This is one of the most common questions I hear from digital creators, and the answer can feel… complicated. Especially when you’re just trying to figure out how to set up your shop, automate your funnels, and get paid.
