240: 3 Ingredients to Fill a Program Faster When Launching (BFF Bonus Replay)


Listen Later

If you have been in business for any amount of time, then you know the feeling when a launch just isn’t working. The sales are crawling, you start doubting yourself, wondering if you created the right thing in the first place, if you built a big enough audience to sell anything at all.

All kinds of additional questions and insecurities follow when sales aren’t flowing: is that the offer that’s off? Your sales page invitation letter? The pricing? Is it you?

It’s so hard not to get a big morale dip in the middle of the sales dip during a launch. So this month’s bonus is on a few strategies that I’ve picked up over the years.

This is a replay of our bonus episode 💯 for the BFF Community. ✨ If you have the means and it feels joyful to support me and this new body of work, you can subscribe as a paid or Founding Member here 🙏 Huge thanks to those of you who have already joined and commented — it means the world to me!


💬 What helps you “sweeten the pot” to get momentum when launching?

What helps you get over any morale dips or vulnerability hangovers along the way?


⭐️3 Key Ingredients

Once you have an irresistible offer, try adding a:

  1. Deadline
  2. Discount
  3. Limited number of spots

  4. 📝 Permission

    To defy the Business Police and trade time for money if it helps you fill the first crucial spots in a program. Everybody wins! Your early enrollees will be thrilled, and you’ll get key insights to help design an even better experience with their needs in mind.
