7 | Launch IQ: The 5 Metrics That Predict Whether Your Next Launch Scales or Stalls


Listen Later

If you’ve ever run the same offer, same strategy, same energy… and got wildly different results, this episode is your answer key.

Because it’s not your webinar script or ad copy doing the heavy lifting - it’s your launch system.

In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down:

  • What Launch IQ actually is - and why it determines whether results stack or reset
  • The five metrics that predict launch success before cart open
  • The invisible leaks quietly capping your conversions (and how to find them in 5 minutes)
  • Why systems beat tactics when it comes to consistent, scalable launches

You’ll also hear how Launch IQ turns “starting from zero” into compounding momentum across every launch.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly which numbers to watch, where your system is leaking, and what to fix first.

Keep Selling After Cart Close

When your launch has people clicking, watching, and almost buying, some of them are still mid-decision when the cart closes. The Post-Launch Profit Playbook shows you how to turn that momentum into post-cart revenue by identifying your warmest non-buyers, creating a lower-friction next step offer, and following up without discounting or making it weird.
