How to Launch an Online Product [Periscope] [Video]

Video Post

This is a Periscope replay of the #VirtualMentor. In this scope, we discussed my blog post, “How to Launch With Nearly Instant Momentum and Sales: The Proven Formula I Use for Every New Product.”

Note this is the first time I used Periscope’s new landscape mode. I definitely still have some bugs to work out!


If you are interested, I broadcast daily on Periscope, Monday through Friday at 12:30 p.m. CDT. If I published a new blog post or podcast, we discuss that. If not, we talk about whatever I am thinking about. And I always take some off-topic questions.


You’ll need to download the free Periscope app if you want to watch live. You can get the iPhone and Android versions here.

Who has time for another social media channel, I thought. I have all I can manage with my blog, my podcast, Facebook, Twitter, and (occasionally) Instagram.


But I noticed that people I respect, like Chalene Johnson and Chris Ducker, were going all in—and killing it. Within a few days I had contracted FOMO (“fear of missing out”). I thought it was time to give it a shot.

How to Recover When You Blow It Big Time

3 Lessons Brené Brown Can Teach Us About Getting Past a Major Fail
