EPISODE 355: The Number One Thing You Need to Know When Launching

Got something exciting in the works – a new product, a service, a book, maybe even a podcast? Then this episode is for YOU.

In today's chat, I'm sharing my best launch advice ever – the kind that turns "meh" launches into momentum-building, community-powered rollouts. Spoiler alert: showing up with your launch already done is a marketing misstep. Instead, I'll walk you through how to bring your people on the journey so they're ready to buy when you're ready to sell!

Plus, I dive into my own book launch experience and show you exactly what a six-week runway launch strategy looks like – step-by-step.
