    After Two Decades of Launch Strategy — Here’s What’s Changed… DTL: #27

    In this special episode, I finally reveal the big project I’ve been holding back for six months – the BRAND NEW, completely reimagined version of my Product Launch Formula (PLF).  This is the biggest evolution in the 19-year history of PLF. And to celebrate Chris and I are taking you behind the scenes of our creation process, from redesigning the program from scratch to adapting it for today’s fast-paced digital world.  You’ll learn what it takes to build a truly world-class online course, the surprising shifts in launch strategies over the years, and why PLF continues to stay at the cutting edge for new and seasoned entrepreneurs alike. You’ll also discover: The Surprising Secret to Selling Without “Selling”: Why you don’t need to be a master salesperson to run a successful launch (19 years later, and I STILL don’t think of myself as a “natural” salesperson!) Why Less Is More: Find out why we slashed the course length in HALF – without sacrificing any of the impact. A New Twist on the “Thud Factor”: With the new PLF, we ditched the days of jam-packed, information-heavy courses and embraced a sleek, streamlined approach. Here’s why. A Shortcut for Course Creators: I share a low-risk strategy you can use to start teaching online that will build your confidence and real-world skills fast (even if you’re brand new!) What the Future of Launching Looks Like – and why it’s now easier than ever to get started. PLUS – A surprising lesson from my very first course that’s even more relevant today … and much more!

    DTL Clip #4: Fun Products Can Transform Lives

    “Jeff, what if my product is just for fun? What If I teach ice skating courses? Or guitar lessons? How do I sell that service as truly transformational for my clients?”   I get this question all the time, and it’s one of my favorites. In this clip from our Launch Masterclass Q&A earlier this year, I offer my two cents. Lots of folks worry that marketing “fun” is a lot more difficult than marketing professional success courses or, say, physical health products. But in my opinion, that line of logic drastically underestimates the value of fun in today’s world. In explaining my point, I turn to the great work that our friend Amy Small has done with Knit Collage. She doesn't just sell yarn and designs… she sells her clients the ability to connect to their inner child through a tactile, communal crafting experience. So if your product can help someone become a more confident, happier, accomplished individual, you’re off to the races.    Key takeaways:  Entrepreneurs either bring joy to people or minimize pain… both are noble missions Helping someone improve at a craft, hobby, or sport may seem nonessential, but we have to think about how that improvement helps people on a deeper level  The world is pretty crazy right now… as entrepreneurs it’s our purpose to help folks feel happier and more fulfilled in life     Learn how to build an email list and launch your own business online with Launch Quickstart – our free training at https://getyoulaunched.com Dare to Launch bonus content by going to https://DaretoLaunchShow.com/taco More about Jeff Walker - http://www.JeffWalker.com Jeff’s Book, Launch - http://www.jeffwalker.com/programs/book  Jeff’s YouTube channel - http://www.youtube.com/@productlaunch  Got a question for us?  Go to DaretoLaunchShow.com to submit a voicemail with your question, and you might hear the answer on one of our next episodes!   THANKS FOR TUNING IN!

    DTL Clip #3 - The $1 Million Documentary Launch with Michael Maidens

    What seems like a crazy idea could revolutionize your industry and become the norm. For instance, when Michael Maidens’ team was tasked with marketing an exciting new documentary, he floated a revolutionary idea to the room: What if we premiered it online for 10 days… for free? That was the germ of the hugely successful marketing campaign behind “Hungry for Change.” And all these years later, dozens of documentaries have followed suit. In this excerpt from our conversation with Michael, he walks us through that decision – how he thought of it, why it was successful, and what he learned from the process. For more insight into Michael’s process, and his emphasis on harnessing your authenticity in marketing, check out the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRgJtTJYfpw Key takeaways:  Focusing on the process is key – outline your desired outcomes and then work backwards to map out the steps you’ll need to get you there. Your marketing needs to be valuable even for non-paying customers – you want to create content that people genuinely love and want to share. Don’t be afraid of risky marketing ideas. If you feel like a tactic will achieve your goal while staying in sync with the identity of your product, go for it!   Learn how to build an email list and launch your own business online with Launch Quickstart – our free training at http://www.getyoulaunched.com  Access other Dare to Launch bonus content by going to http://www.DaretoLaunchShow.com/taco   More about Jeff Walker - http://www.JeffWalker.com Jeff’s YouTube channel -  https://www.youtube.com@productlaunch   Got a question for us?  Go to DaretoLaunchShow.com to submit a voicemail with your question, and you might hear the answer on one of our next episodes!

    DTL Clip #2: Advice For Creators Dealing With The Potential Tik Tok Ban

    In this excerpt from our episode about the potential U.S. TikTok ban, Chris and I dive into what I think is one of the most common pitfalls of online entrepreneurship. Many content creators and online coaches out there rely solely on platforms like TikTok and Instagram to support their businesses. And with a potential TikTok ban looming, we have to remember that these platforms are ultimately out of our control. Even if TikTok doesn’t end up going away, you never know what kind of algorithm changes might affect your reach. In this clip, I urge online entrepreneurs to find a way to transfer their audiences over to an independent platform - like an email list – and I walk some of the younger folks through a bit of a history lesson of how the internet economy has changed over the last 25 years.    For more on how creators can build up their businesses without depending entirely on social media, check out the full episode here: https://youtu.be/vTd6g6PsR7Y?si=9mXmanHUvVxU2iQH   Key takeaways:  Social media platforms can disappear completely – you need to find a way to transfer your audience to a platform you can actually control Email lists are one of the most powerful tools in marketing…don’t listen to the naysayers  Social media is an incredibly valuable tool to direct traffic to your platform, but it can’t be your only source of business    Access other Dare to Launch bonus content by going to DaretoLaunchShow.com/taco  More about Jeff Walker - http://www.JeffWalker.com Product Launch Formula - http://www.jeffwalker.com/programs/pr...

    Q&A with Jeff - What type of launch should you do? Launching a retreat? Do I need to be an expert?

    On this week’s special episode of Dare to Launch, we’re sharing a live Q&A session from this year’s Launch Masterclass. The Launch Masterclass is my biggest launch of the year…we don’t hold anything back. In fact, it’s my best FREE launch training. (My best launch training is my Product Launch Formula Coaching Program.). The Launch Masterclass is a mixture of recorded video lessons, live Q&A sessions, and special bonus content. These Q&A sessions are one of the most crucial components of the Masterclass. I field as many entrepreneur questions as possible live on the air. In this particular session, the questions ran the gamut – Including finding your voice as an online creator, building a powerful offer, cultivating expertise, and how to market online in 2024…I covered it all. If you’re starting out as an entrepreneur, be ready to take down a few notes. And if you’ve already been around the block a few times, this session is a great way to double-check that you’re set on the right course.  Get a free copy of the 2024 Launch Guide here: https://productlaunchformula.com/masterclass24/guide/ Access other Dare to Launch bonus content by going to DaretoLaunchShow.com/taco  More about Jeff Walker - http://www.JeffWalker.com Product Launch Formula - http://www.jeffwalker.com/programs/ Jeff’s Book, Launch - http://www.jeffwalker.com/programs/ Jeff’s YouTube channel -  www.youtube.com/@productlaunch   Learn how to build an email list and launch your own business online with Launch Quickstart – our free training at https://jeffwalker.com/  Got a question for us?  Go to DaretoLaunchShow.com to submit a voicemail with your question, and you might hear the answer on one of our next episodes!

    Your Survival Instincts Are Hurting Your Business: Annie Hyman Pratt

    Join Chris and me in welcoming Annie Hyman Pratt to the show this week! As the CEO of The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, she grew the company from a small family business into an international brand, overseeing its high-value sale. Today Annie is the founder of Leading Edge Teams, one of the top leadership and team development consulting firms in the world. She has also been a member of my Platinum Plus Mastermind for years, and I’ve brought her on board time and time again to improve the way my team communicates and operates. In today’s chat, she guides us through some of the key components of her approach. The central focus is how our survival instincts tend to cause problems in our businesses, and what we can do to mitigate those primal reactions. When it comes to conflict negotiation, team leadership, and organizational structure, Annie is the go-to expert.  Find more from Annie at: https://leadingedgeteams.com Book a Discovery Call: https://leadingedgeteams.com/schedule-a-discovery-call/  Key topics discussed:  Self-Protection: Annie explains why employees sometimes act from a place of self-protection, which negates much of their critical thinking capacity.  Building a Leadership Team: To ever have a chance of removing yourself from the day-to-day, you need to assemble a strong core of leaders across all departments..  Organizational Simplicity: As Annie sees it, many companies try to do too much too soon, which sabotages their profits.  Key takeaways:  Leadership starts at the top. As the founder of the company, you can’t operate from a place of emotional reactivity.  You can’t do everything yourself forever. You need to build up a team that can actually do everything themselves, without any micro-managing or hand-holding.  Give your employees an opportunity to impress you. If you’re micromanaging them, they’ll never be able to come into their own.   Access Dare to Launch bonus Vault by going to DaretoLaunchShow.com/taco  More about Jeff Walker - http://www.JeffWalker.com Jeff’s YouTube channel -  / @productlaunch   Resources Referenced in the episode:  “Crucial Conversations Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High” by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan, Al Switzler Learn how to build an email list and launch your own business online with Launch Quickstart – our free training at https://jeffwalker.com/  Got a question for us?  Go to DaretoLaunchShow.com to submit a voicemail with your question, and you might hear the answer on one of our next episodes!  THANKS FOR TUNING IN!
