How To Do A Product Launch With No Product And No Email List

I started out online promoting a few different products as an affiliate, with one of them generating around 80% of my income (yeah, risky I know).

Anyhow, when that affiliate merchant made the gut wrenching (for me) decision to change the way they paid affiliates, they effectively destroyed my entire business model. That was when I decided I needed a little more control over my income, because I didn’t want to ever feel that way again.

After that experience, I started creating products of my own, and as you know, launching a product is much better than just opening up for business and hoping for the best.

The very first product launch I did was a ‘Seed Launch’, which as you’ll recall is Step 2 in our 5 Steps To A 6 Figure Product Launch process:

Seed Launch

 

 

 

 

 

During that Seed Launch I created a 4 week coaching program I could sell myself, and also offer to people who purchased a related affiliate product so they could get better results.

From a tiny list, I ended up with 39 students paying $37 each go through the launch with me.

So I made the princely sum of $1443 (a little less after Paypal fees) for 4 weeks of ‘work’ which worked out to be a total of around 12 hours writing email messages and relentlessly checking my sales figures 🙂

Not really a big deal (but man was I excited at the time).

But here’s the thing…

– The Seed Launch allowed me to get paid up front to create the product (so I knew there was demand before I spent any time or money on it)

– It was fun and I learned a lot about what customers really wanted and needed (doing what you enjoy while actually helping people is nice)

– It helped me to bond with people in my audience at a much deeper level (some of the people who went through the Seed Launch became raving fans and bought all kinds of other stuff from for years)

Plus…

Having that completed product enabled me to sell it, or give it away as a bonus to EVERY person who purchased that affiliate product through my affiliate link.

And that (along with a small amount of personal email coaching) helped me to make thousands of dollars in affiliate commissions from that product every single month for more than 4 years…

…until the merchant changed their affiliate program rules and killed the thing dead (there’s a long, sad story of ineptitude and stupidity on their part; I’ll tell you about that another day…).

So that’s one way to use a Seed Launch, but there are lots of others.

Here’s just 3 ideas:

– If you sell any kind of physical product, you could do a Seed Launch to create a digital product or training course that helps your customers get more out of the things they buy from you, and give it away as a bonus to increase your product’s value and stand out from your competitors

– If you sell a professional service, you could create a coaching series that helps your clients get much more out of your services and sell it or give it away

– If you sell any kind of coaching, training or education, you could take your clients and students through a Seed Launch to get a deeper understanding of their needs, goals and desires, and come out with an entire new suite of programs you could offer to people in the future (or use as bonuses for your existing stuff)

Product Launch Formula #4 – How To Transition To Your Open Cart

Jeff Walker is gearing up for the 4th and final instalment of his free Product Launch Formula Masterclass, and this lesson is going to be one of the most important.

That’s because if you are like a lot of people who don’t see themselves as natural ‘sales people’, it’s easy to get freaked out or feel a little weird when you’re trying to sell your products or services. This is especially so when you are doing a launch because you are going from giving value in your pre-launch content, to asking for a sale when you are in the ‘open cart’ period.

That’s a perfectly natural feeling, and because lot of people feel this way, it can really hamper your sales, profits, and your business growth. The thing is, at the end of the day, you have to make sales if you want to have a successful business.

Here’s How Product Launch Formula Solves The Problem…

Inside Jeff Walker’s Product Launch Formula Launch

You may have been watching Jeff Walker’s Product Launch Formula from the point of view of a current or potential customer, but as an affiliate of Jeff’s, I’d like to share some of the inside goss on what’s been going on behind the scenes.

The bottom line is that even though people have been using PLF to launch products and services since around 2008, and many people say the ‘launch model’ is dying or dead, Jeff’s been totally nailing it with this current launch so far.

He’s now delivered just about TEN HOURS of content… and people are freaking out at the quality + quantity + experience.

I’ve watched and participated in a LOT of launches, and I’ve never seen people as excited as Jeff’s folks are with this current prelaunch.

Thursday was “Lesson 3”… the Launch Blueprint… and it was just another LIVE broadcast in the launch with three hours and twenty minutes of pure content.

And it was pure content that is setting up the sales of Product Launch Formula that will come in next week when Jeff opens the shopping cart.

And there were 1,312 comments during the broadcast. Amazing!

And the beautiful thing is that even though the shopping cart is not open yet, people are asking if they can buy to get started. Just like they used to do in the launches back in 2008.

It just goes to show that Product Launch Formula, when used as Jeff teaches, still works just as well as it ever has.

So what’s next?

The “Lesson 4” LIVE broadcast will be hot. Jeff will be teaching “open cart” strategies, as well as how to sell effectively without being slimy… and he’ll also be officially making an offer for Product Launch Formula.

And there will be a great bonus for people who jump on board and register by midnight on Monday.

So make sure you check out the training so far and get set for Lesson 4 of the Masterclass. You can do that by visiting this link.

Warm regards,
