The Mistakes to Avoid When Launching a Product

Download MP3
I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).

I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.



This is the second time Hillary Weiss has been on the podcast, and now she's newly retired from copywriting. Instead, she spends her time focusing on coaching for creatives.

In this episode, she takes us through the mistakes that people make when launching a product and shares steps for a successful launch, from pre-sale and beyond.

Topics covered:
  • The wrong ways to launch stuff.
  • Common mistakes that people make when launching.
  • Creating value with every email you send
  • How to help people see things differently
  • Seeing the launch as a fun creative challenge
  • Why integrity and tech are the biggest issues when launching
  • Hillary’s use of social media during a launch
  • Why a small following that engages is better than a huge list
  • What is the messy brain problem and how to deal with it
  • Don’t do tons of stuff. Focus on one thing and do it well
  • The importance of the pre-sale
  • Strategy after the pre-sale
  • Picking the right kind of fights
