About this Podcast:

Before the Launch is your go-to shortcut for what to say and do — and how to warm up your audience — so they’re already nodding “yes” before you ever pitch a thing. If you're tired of guessing what content actually moves the needle, this podcast pulls back the curtain on what really works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to generating demand before the cart opens. Each short, unfiltered episode gives you the messaging, content strategy, and buyer psychology insight you need to make your next launch feel less like a scramble—and more like a sell-out. Because launch success doesn’t start with a sales page. It starts way before the launch.
