Product Launch Management
Product Launch Management
It’s been a big year of transition going from managing my own business & launching my own products to helping others launch their products and take their businesses to new heights.
It’s been a real honor to be invited into other people’s businesses, seeing how they operate and what is working for them and what isn’t.
The most surprising thing I’ve encountered on this journey is how complicated it really is to launch a product, create a winning and sustainable marketing system and then systemize your business so you can predict results and plan appropriately for the future.
The most interesting thing about this journey is seeing how many businesses are run “by the seat of their pants.” This isn’t a judgement, it’s a fact. Many of these businesses even make a fair bit of cash. So you can have a successful business without systems – but you’re doing it with one hand tied behind your back. The other problem with not creating, testing, improving and implementing powerful marketing systems is that life is no fun. It’s not predictable and the inevitable fires you need to put out in a launch almost become unmanageable because you’re already spinning too many plates.
So my gift to you this Holiday season is the gift of reflection. Take some time this year to see what’s working for you, see how you can systemize, outsource, automate and simplify those tasks so you can start to free up time to create the space for creative thought. After all, your success in business is a reflection of that creative thought. It will be the best time you even spent.
Good luck and best wishes for continued success and happiness in the New Year!

It really is an interesting journey, and exercise too, to be part of other people’s businesses and see exactly people work on them.
I’m definitely looking at systemisation as much as possible, even in my own businesses, let alone other peoples.
Wishing you too a very Happy New Year, and all the success and joy that comes with it.
