Por

Building your launch structure doesn’t have to be overwhelming—it’s about setting clear steps and strategy early. For aspiring co‑producers, mastering this foundation is key to success.

In this guide, you’ll learn practical, technical, and conversational steps to shape your first launch—from planning to execution.

Let’s dive into the essential stages every beginner should follow to confidently launch a digital course with a partner.

What Is a Launch Structure and Why It Matters

  • A launch structure is the roadmap guiding your joint course from idea to enrollment.
  • It ensures every phase—strategy, content, marketing, sales—is aligned.
  • Minimizes risk by giving clarity to timeline, roles, and workflows.

Step 1 – Define Roles & Responsibilities

  • Clarify your role as co‑producer (strategy, marketing, sales support).
  • Determine the expert’s role (content creation, subject mastery).
  • Use a shared document (e.g., Notion) to list tasks, deadlines, and owners.

Step 2 – Establish Clear Timeline & Milestones

  • Create a project calendar covering:
    1. Course outline/final content
    2. Landing page & sales page
    3. Pre‑launch traffic (emails, ads, webinars)
    4. Launch week (live events, promos)
    5. Post‑launch analysis & support
  • Assign realistic deadlines and buffer time for revisions.

Step 3 – Choose Platforms & Tools

  • Project management: Trello, Notion, or Asana
  • Delivery: Kajabi, Teachable, or Hotmart
  • Marketing stack: Email (MailerLite), Ads (Facebook/Google), Funnels (ClickFunnels)
  • Document who sets up, manages, and monitors each tool.

Step 4 – Design Your Funnel Flow

  • Map student journey: Awareness → Engagement → Conversion → Onboarding
  • Define key touchpoints:
    • Lead magnet (e.g., free mini‑lesson)
    • Email sequence (5–7 emails nurturing leads + call to action)
    • Sales materials: persuasive copy, testimonials, clear pricing
  • Identify metrics to track: open rates, CTR, conversion %, ROI.

Step 5 – Prepare Content & Marketing Assets

  • Sales page: clear headlines, benefits, features, social proof, CTAs
  • Emails: template sequences for pre‑launch, cart open, cart closed
  • Ads: image/video creatives + copy variations
  • Landing page: optimized for lead capture (headline, form, value props)

Step 6 – Run a Mini Test (Pilot Launch)

  • Conduct a low-risk (“pilot”) test:
    • Webinar, workshop, or soft launch to small audience
  • Collect feedback, fix technical issues, improve copy or sales pages
  • Use results to optimize before full-scale launch.

Step 7 – Launch Day & Follow-Up

  • Launch execution checklist:
    • All emails and ads scheduled
    • Monitoring support channels (email, chat)
    • Sales page and payment systems live and tested
  • Post-launch:
    • Send cart close reminders
    • Provide onboarding support
    • Gather reviews and testimonials for next launch
