It’s not too late to launch your subscription box this year. Q4 *can* be a great time to launch. People are already spending money on themselves and buying gifts for others. They understand…
I'm so glad that you're here today because if there's any part of you that has been telling yourself it's too late to launch this year, that you need to wait for the new year, I want you to hear me out before you believe that story you keep telling yourself any further.
Let's talk about the fear, okay? So this is the voice that's in your head probably that says when you see somebody else's launch post maybe or anything like that, but you say, "Oh, I think it's too late for me to launch this year.
Maybe I'll do that next year." I'm saying it because I would say there's a lot of people in our community that have the exact same thoughts at some point, but we have a lot of months left.
Like, we have a good three and a half, four months left, depending on when you're listening to this, and that's a lot of time to make some real progress.
And so what I want you to hear me today is that... what I want you to hear from me today is that it's not too late.
It's not too late for you to launch your subscription this year, especially if you've been working on audience building.
Q4 is actually a strong time to launch, not a weak one, because people are already spending money.
They're spending money on themselves a long time, and then they're spending money on gifts.
There is kind of a, I would say, off-limits zone for when I wouldn't want you to launch.
After Thanksgiving, our mindset, our shopping mindset shifts to more of gift-giving.
