Product launch strategies!

A successful product launch just doesn't happen ... it is a well-executed event. An event with a strategically timed process that creates a frenzy BEFORE the sa,e. This frenzy is triggered by anticipation.

Anticipation is best created long before the launch. It provides an opportunity for your subscribers and customers to raise their hands and say, "Yes, place me on your preferred list. I want to be the first to know when your product will be released." Once you have their YES, feed their anticipation with daily communications to whet their appetite for the upcoming event, and make your messages valuable.

Offer free reports, audio files, pod casts or eBooks to educate them about your product. The value of your free gifts will confirm the anticipated value of your product.

How do you get your market involved in the anticipation of your product launch?

Communication is the key: Videos, Blogs, Public Speaking.

1. Videos - Add videos to your website. Engage your customers in the product. Demonstrate the application of a strategy, system or technique. Videos trigger the emotional pull to your product. It sparks the "I want that!" emotion.

2. Blogs - The "in" form of communication on the web.
