Hey Tori! What is a Launch?

You posted "It's here — link in bio," refreshed your sales page about forty times, and… it was quiet. A couple of sales from the same handful of people who always buy. You didn't do anything wrong. You didn't launch — you announced. And those are two very different things. This week we get clear on what a launch actually is, where the whole idea came from, and why sending one email and calling it done leaves so much sitting on the table. Tori breaks down the launch as an event with a build and a countdown (not a single moment), the two roads you can take — an email launch or a webinar launch — and which one fits teachers and designers best. Then she opens the books on her own Workshops Unleashed Book Club launch: the real numbers, including the parts that didn't go to plan. In this episode: Why announcing and launching are not the same thing The launch as a countdown, not a liftoff — the rocket metaphor from Workshops Unleashed Email launch vs. webinar launch, and how to pick How long your launch should run, based on what you're selling The unfiltered numbers from Tori's own book club launch https://a.co/d/00lroFP1 Enjoying the show?
