*At least, not enough ~ish~ to feel confident you’ll have a 5 or 6-figure paycheck the first week you launch.
Your burnt-out-business-owner brain is like:
→ “The sooner I put it out there, the better.”
→ “If I just make an announcement post, I could launch tomorrow.”
→ “As long as I have a huge discount, the sales should be fiiiine.”
(If you listen very carefully, you can almost hear all of the copywriters in the world screaming “NOOOOO!!!” to ALL of the above)
But if any of those thoughts have crossed your mind, you’re NOT the only one. In fact…
*And as two people in that second group, we know why.
We're Madison & Haley, aka Maha Copy Co.
hey there!
We started selling our first digital products in 2022. That year, we made $27,000 from our resource shop with minimal marketing, and honestly? We felt like we were WINNING. (Passive income = yay!!!)
But then, in January 2023, we ran our first-ever “official” launch for our Write Your Site Workbook. Our Big Reach Goal was to make $15,000 the week we launched.
But we didn’t make $15,000.
We made $50,000.
That means our Week 1 launch paycheck was almost double what we made in our resource shop the ENTIRE previous year. Fast forward to now: we’ve had $50,000, $150,000, and even $200,000+ launches for our digital resources.
...Which is great news for you!!! Because if you’re growing a small business, you don’t have the time (or the budget!) for a massive and expensive marketing effort.
But WE DO have the time, the budget, and the marketing know-how. And we still don’t spend weeks or thousands of dollars planning our launch marketing to make it successful.
Instead, we focus the majority of our marketing effort on the place where our hottest leads are hanging out:
Instagram Stories.
And here's the kicker:
You'll learn
How to build anticipation for your offer before it goes live so you get DMs on launch day like "Immediately purchased! I've been waiting for this!"
Exactly what to post on Stories for the 7 days of your launch to maximize sales and get people to want to buy NOW
How to officially introduce your new offer to your audience (we'll teach you the exact strategy we use to make Launch Day one of the most profitable days of every launch we've run!)
Simple but WILDLY effective messaging techniques to position your offer as the single best option for your target audience
How to use a prelaunch to increase the amount of money you earn during your launch (we'll teach you specific prelaunch strategies to use!)
How to increase urgency and make people want to buy from you NOW (without sounding salesy!)
& When to run your launch to maximize the number of people jumping on your offer!
Learning how to run a successful marketing campaign (which is essentially what a launch is) is even more important if:
→ You’re relatively new to business, because you have to build more authority and offer awareness to make people want to buy
→ You’ve already put a lot of time into making your offer, because as a business owner, your time is money (and in this case, you already spent it!)
→ The financial stakes are high, because the future of your business really does depend on how well you can sell!
We don’t walk you through the process of creating and posting a Story! If you have no idea how to post a Story, you can learn how it’s done in our in-depth Instagram Stories course: Sell With Stories.
We recommend this masterclass to anyone who’s ready to launch an offer. If you’re brand new to Instagram and you don’t have many followers or Story views, you can still run a launch on Instagram, but your income potential will definitely be lower. (We can’t promise any specific results. But we CAN promise you won’t have a 6-figure launch if you’re selling a $7 resource to 10 followers. Because math.)
That said, you don’t need 10k, 50k, or 100k followers to start selling or to have a successful launch! In this masterclass, you’ll learn how to convert the viewers you DO have right now, and you’ll gain the strategy knowledge and confidence you’ll need to run more successful launches as you grow.
P.S. If you want to learn how to grow a following on Instagram (without posting reels every day or waiting for a post to *go viral*), check out our masterclass Instagram Content Mastery! In that masterclass, we’ll teach you how to create content on your IG feed that will get more people hitting “Follow.”
It will take about 90 minutes to watch the masterclass and review the templates. More if you need to pause for a snack.
