If your launches feel like a frantic sprint, a few posts, a webinar, a handful of emails, fingers crossed, and then you’re left wondering why the numbers don’t match the effort… It’s because you’re probably doing what most people do publicly, instead of what the people with consistent five and six figure launches do privately.
And yes, there’s a difference.
This episode of Six Figure Signature Offers was intentionally short, sharp, and strategic. Because the highest leverage launch moves rarely need more complexity. They need better priorities.
So today, we’re talking about six behind the scenes strategies A grade players use to make launches feel more predictable, more profitable, and far less draining. Even when they’re time strapped, juggling kids, clients, and a calendar that’s already full.
These are the moves that make five figure launches normal, and set the foundation for six.
Why “Work Harder” Isn’t the Answer
Most experts I work with don’t have an effort problem. They’re already:- Fully booked (or close to it)
- Selling mostly 1:1
- Showing up online when they can
- Trying to “launch” in between client delivery and life
1) Prelaunch Persuasion: The Part Everyone Skips (and Then Regrets)
Here’s the truth. Your prelaunch matters more than your cart open. Cart open is where people act. Prelaunch is where people decide. And most people treat prelaunch like a warm up they can wing in the final week. Which is why cart open feels like shouting into the void. Prelaunch persuasion is the strategic work of:- making your audience crystal clear on the real problem
- helping them feel the urgency to solve it
- positioning your offer as the obvious next step
- getting them “sold” on your way of thinking before they even see the sales page
- why their current approach isn’t working
- why staying stuck is costing them
- why it makes sense to fix this now
- “Here’s my program, doors are open” and
- “I can’t unsee this. I need to be in”
- your message sharpens
- your authority deepens
- your conversions improve
- your launches start to feel more predictable
2) Presale Opportunities: Going Into Launch With Runs on the Board
One of the biggest confidence shifts in launching is this. When you go into your launch event already knowing people have bought, you show up differently. You teach differently. You sell differently. You lead differently. Presale can look like:- a waitlist with real heat (not a dusty form link)
- behind the scenes “shoulder tap” invitations
- early access for warm leads
- private invites to purchase before doors officially open
- it validates the offer
- it creates momentum before you open cart
- it gives you signal on what’s resonating
- it reduces the mental load of launching
3) Conversations: The Most Profitable “Launch Task” You’re Probably Avoiding
This one can be confronting, especially if you’ve been told that DMs are “sleazy”. Cold, random, copy paste DMs? Absolutely not. But warm conversations with warm people? That’s what high performers are doing. Quietly. Consistently. Profitably. In the episode, I share something many experienced business owners admit privately. Because conversations do two things that content can’t always do fast:- They build trust at speed
- They move people through the decision process
- Instagram Story Q&As that invite replies
- nurture emails that encourage two way responses
- comment prompts that start dialogue
- and yes, initiating DM conversations with your warmest audience
- top of mind
- actively engaging
- helping them make a decision
4) Consistency and Repetition: Stop Walking Halfway Up the Hill
This might be the most underrated launch strategy of all. Because it’s not sexy. But it works. Consistency means:- emailing regularly
- showing up on Instagram consistently
- building trust week after week
- launching the same offer again and again
- iterating based on data
- improving one system instead of constantly inventing new ones
- launch once
- don’t hit their goal
- panic
- change the offer, change the topic, change the webinar, change the strategy
- and then wonder why nothing improves
- 2 to 3 launches to fully decide
- multiple exposures to the same core message
- a longer runway to trust themselves enough to buy
5) Low Lift Sales: The Easiest Money You’re Not Making
Low lift sales are sales that don’t require you to convince someone from scratch. They’re the people who already:- know you
- trust you
- have been in your world
- likely already believe in your approach
- past clients who are ready for the next step
- current clients who would benefit from an adjacent offer
- “non buyers” from a past launch who needed more time
- warm discovery conversations that didn’t convert at the time
6) List Building: The Part That Makes Everything Else Work
This is the big one. At some point in almost every business, you hit a ceiling. Your current pool of leads is no longer enough to hit your next revenue goal. And most people wildly underestimate how many leads they actually need. Let’s use the exact maths from the episode.The $50K launch example
- Launch goal: $50,000
- Offer price: $2,500
- Sales needed: $50,000 ÷ $2,500 = 20 sales
- Leads needed for 20 sales at 2%: 20 ÷ 0.02 = 1,000 leads
- only 10 to 20% of your existing list might be paying attention in any given launch window
- attention is the currency of conversion
- list growth is a skill that never stops paying you back
- four $50K launches per year equals $200K revenue
- with around 50% margins equals $100K pay
- choice in who you work with
- choice in what you sell
- choice in how often you launch
- choice in how you spend your time
If You Want Predictable Launches, Here’s the Real Sequence
If you strip this episode down to the core, it’s this. Big launches aren’t built in cart open week. They’re built in the weeks and months before. The launch winners are doing six things consistently:- Prelaunch persuasion that actually shifts beliefs
- Presale pathways that create momentum
- Conversations that move buyers through decisions
- Repetition and refinement instead of reinvention
- Low lift sales through past and current relationships
- Aggressive (but smart) list building for lead volume
- you stop reinventing every launch
- you stop doing frantic last minute content
- you stop relying on hope marketing
- you start building a business that has both peace and profit baked in

Before your next launch, ask:- What am I doing to persuade in prelaunch (not just “show up”)?
- Where can I create presale momentum?
- Who do I need to be in conversation with this week?
- Am I repeating and refining, or reinventing?
- What low lift sales have I ignored?
- Do I actually have a plan for the lead volume I need?
