Launches have always been one of my favorite parts of being an entrepreneur. Yes, there’s a lot of expectation and stress that can happen during the pre-launch phase but it’s also a time where you can play around with new launch strategies that can connect you with a brand new audience.  

If you do have a brand new product or service that you can’t wait to share with the world, it’s important to make sure you have all your ducks in a row before unveiling it to the world. First impressions matter, so you want to make sure you launch it right. 

This week, I break down four particular areas when it comes to launching: pre-testing your audience, the three elements you need to create when building buzz, a few of my own favorite launch strategies that I’ve used so far and what you can do after your product or service has finally been released.

There are lots of moving parts involved when it comes to a product launch which is why planning is essential from the get-go. Make sure you cover all the details (both big and small) early on so you can make sure you have a product launch that stays top of mind for everyone in your industry.

Essential learning points from this episode:

• The different ways you can pre-test your audience to validate your business idea.
• How you can counteract the mid-launch lull that happens to keep those sign-ups going.
• How you can keep the momentum going after your launch your product or service.
• The three ingredients to a successful launch: excitement, creating urgency and staying engaged with your audience.
• Much, much more!
