In this week’s podcast we will be talking all about launching your online product or service. I am going to talk you through all the different steps involved, and some of the key things that make the real difference in terms of the success of a launch. KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCASTLaunching an online product or service is a bit like baking a cake – you have to follow the steps and the process.This is not a quick win, it takes time.You need to create consistent content in the warm up phase so people can engage with you on a regular basis – you need to be known for your product or service.Start building your email list!Love your audience, keep showing up.You can launch a product or service through masterclasses, webinars, live videos, waitlists or challenges.You need to demonstrate what they are going to get if they then purchase from you – give them a taster.The day you do the webinar, masterclass or challenge, is the day you start selling.Start planning your launch 6 weeks in advance.Being live makes it easier to have that conversation whilst they are sat there and they also get to ask you questions.Create downloads and workbooks to add value.Consider your price point – you should offer a discounted rate for people to buy straight away. You could offer a payment plan.Open cart or closed cart – is there going to be a day where people can no longer join?Your sales page is SO important – there is a download on my website and a course in my academy on this subject.Consider why people didn’t buy – follow up with a survey for feedback.Don’t forget to love the members you already have.Review all of your steps before relaunching.THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO REMEMBER ABOVE ALL ELSE…Launching an online product or service is a LONG process, there are so many different steps to it but I promise, if you have the drive and the desire to have an online business, it can be the most wonderful thing.HIGHLIGHTS YOU SIMPLY CAN'T MISSQuick launch - 04:00The warm up phase - 06:37The pre-launch - 16:21The actual launch - 22:58Post-launch - 31:28Retention and relaunch - 33:23Transcript below Welcome to this week's episode of the podcast. How are you doing? As I'm recording this, it's a beautiful sunny day. We've been so lucky with the weather and I am so, so grateful for having nice weather. I have to say it really does make a difference to my mood. So I am very grateful for the sun shining today and I hope the day that you're listening to this, the sun is shining too and I hope you're having a good day. Okay, so I want to talk today about something that I love. So when I started in marketing about 16-ish years ago, I did well basically over these 16 years, I have done so much marketing.

I used to do fax marketing, we still lot of postal marketing, whereas some of these things obviously we're not using now. And then some of the things I use today, I had to learn like everybody else because they weren't in my degree 16 years ago. So for me, as you know, it's a passion. I love every, every minute of marketing and I eat, sleep and breathe this stuff. But the last few years I've been very honoured to work with lots of business owners in a particular area, which I love and I want to dedicate today's episode all to that area. So I want to talk to you about launching....
