Description

You didn’t start your coaching business to white-knuckle every launch, crash for two weeks, and then wonder how you’ll ever do it again.

You started because you’ve got a brilliant offer people actually want - and you know you’re capable of more consistent, scalable sales.

Launch Confidential is the podcast for online coaches stuck in the messy middle of marketing - the ones with brilliant offers, a few launches under their belt, but results that feel like a rollercoaster you can’t get off.

Hosted by Diana Toronto and Taylor Marks, co-founders of Launch Babes and former launch strategists who ran multi–six-figure campaigns for clients, this is where you come to stop guessing and finally build a sales ecosystem you can trust.

If you’ve ever asked yourself:
– Why do my launches always feel like I’m starting from zero?
– How do I turn freebie sign-ups into actual buyers?
– What should I be doing between launches so sales don’t dry up?
– Is it really possible to launch without burning out?
…this podcast is your answer.

Every weekly episode mixes sharp strategy with the belief shifts you didn’t know you needed: messaging that builds demand, emails that sell, ads that warm (not just chase), and launch psychology that makes cart-open lighter, easier, and far more predictable.

You don’t need a massive team or 80-hour weeks to scale. You just need a system that sells in between and makes launches repeatable. That’s exactly what you’ll find here.

Subscribe to Launch Confidential and join the coaches who are done white-knuckling launches - and ready for launches that finally work every time. Visit launchconfidential.com for show notes, tools, and bonus resources.

What if everything you've been told about posting frequency is backwards?You're watching other creators post daily - sometimes multiple times a day - and you're convinced that's what it takes. So you batch on Sunday, show up strong for three days, burn out by Thursday, disappear for two weeks, feel guilty, then panic-post six times in three days to catch up.That cycle? It's not just exhausting. It's actually tanking your reach.The algorithm doesn't care that you posted ten times last week. It cares that you ghosted this week. And every time you do that, you're training it not to trust you.Turns out, the algorithm rewards reliability over volume. Predictability over hustle. Consistency over bursts. And most creators are doing the exact opposite of what actually works.In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down what the algorithm is actually optimizing for, why sporadic posting destroys your reach even when you're creating great content, and how to find a posting rhythm that grows your audience without burning you out.Spoiler: it's way less than you think. And yes, you have permission.KEY MOMENTS02:30 - Why the algorithm rewards consistency, not volume 04:10 - What "reliably" means to the algorithm (and why it matters more than frequency)06:46 - The panic post pattern that confuses the algorithm 08:17 - How long it takes to build trust with the algorithm (and why it compounds) 10:57 - What sporadic posting is actually costing you 13:29 - Finding your sustainable rhythm: the honest capacity audit 18:27 - The easy content posting commitment that changes everything 20:28 - What happens after 12 weeks of true consistency 23:31 - The 70-80% certainty rule for posting 24:38 - You now have permission to post less!CONNECT + RESOURCESWe’ll be adding links to our favorite tools, trainings, and launch resources here as the podcast grows.

You spent weeks crafting your launch content. The emails that got replies. The posts that stopped the scroll. The sales page copy that actually converted. The reels you did your hair and makeup for.And then cart closed, you filed everything away in a Google Drive folder you'll never find again, and sat down the next week to create content from scratch. Again.BUT… Here’s the thing. You’re already sitting on your highest converting messaging ever created - content that’s been proven to move people toward buying - and you’re letting it die while you burn out trying to match that level of genius all over again. Every. Single. Week.Launch content isn’t temporary, single-use promo content that expires when the cart closes. It's the most strategically valuable content you'll ever create because you're writing from total clarity - dialed into your offer's exact transformation, your ideal client's real objections, and the precise language that moves people into taking action.That clarity is what makes people convert. And you’re archiving it in your Google Drive.In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down the Launch-to-Runway System - how to turn your best launch assets into a year-round nurture machine that fills your content calendar without burning out.

You crafted what you thought was the perfect pain point content. Really dug into their struggle, showed them you understand their problem, validated their pain.And then... crickets. Or worse - great engagement, but zero sales.Here's what nobody's telling you: pain point marketing isn't just failing to convert anymore. It's actually training your audience to be professional tire kickers. Buyers are more sophisticated now. What worked three years ago is creating comparison shoppers instead of committed buyers.Meanwhile, there are coaches who post about their offer once and get flooded with DMs asking "How do I work with you?" and "Where do I sign up?" Same market, same platform - completely different results.The difference? They're not dwelling in the pain. They're leading with identity.In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down exactly why pain-focused messaging is killing conversions and prolonging your sales cycles - and introduce their three-layer messaging system that flips the script entirely. This is the framework they use with every client, in every launch, across every piece of content.

It's the end of 2025, and you're staring down the last days of the year with a choice: grind through the holidays to "finish strong," or (more tempting) take a legit vacation from your desk - and hope your audience doesn't notice and still remembers you exist after New Year's.Here's the thing - neither of those options actually works.The coaches who start January strong aren't the ones hustling until December 31st, and they're not the ones disappearing for three weeks either. They're the ones running a simple, sustainable, and strategic visibility system that keeps them top of mind while they're actually enjoying the holidays with their families.December isn't about finishing strong by someone else's definition (looking at you, guys in Patagonia vests posting on Instagram about Q4 heroics). It's about clearing the runway so you can take off in January feeling energized instead of depleted. Real momentum doesn't come from sprinting to the finish line - it comes from cleaning up mental clutter, staying visible when your competitors disappear, and creating spaciousness instead of stress.Think of this as your permission slip to build a business that doesn't require you to miss your kids' Christmas concert or answer Slack pings between wrapping presents. Because the entrepreneurs who thrive in Q1 aren't the ones who worked through every holiday in Q4 - they're the ones who used December to set up systems that run while they're drinking hot cocoa and watching "Elf" (again).In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana share their exact anti-hustle approach to ending the year - four simple strategies that build real momentum heading into 2026 without sacrificing a single holiday moment or burning yourself out before the new year even begins.This is your holiday-themed reminder: Hustle-culture? Soooo 2024. Momentum in 2026 is all about making room for you to be present in your own life - not just your work.KEY MOMENTS03:43 - Why the "finish strong" pressure is broken - and permission to define it on your own terms04:14 - The toxic hustle-through-December advice - why it’s a lie04:45 - What real momentum looks like (hint: it's the opposite of grinding)06:10 - Strategy #1: Clearing 2025 mental and physical clutter to create spaciousness for 2026 (hello, ADHD entrepreneurs)08:45 - Strategy #2: Visibility when your competitors disappear - without doing more10:25 - How to batch December content in 20 minutes using simple B-roll and static images (no talking head reels required)11:47 - Strategy #3: Why giving your audience a no-strings-attached gift is your most strategic move13:54 - Strategy #4: One tiny experiment to try for forward momentum and useful data (without launching anything)14:35 - Recap and connect: how to share your ideas with us!CONNECT + RESOURCESWe’ll be adding links to our favorite tools, trainings, and launch resources here as the podcast grows.

Most coaches blast the same post-launch emails to everyone on their list. Strategic coaches know that's where conversions die.Here's the difference: while everyone else is sending generic follow-ups to buyers and no-shows alike, the coaches who actually convert after cart close are running targeted, behavior-based email sequences that turn engaged non-buyers into downsell customers - and position them perfectly for the next launch cycle.The truth? Your email list isn't one audience. It's four distinct segments with completely different needs, objections, and buying timelines. The person who abandoned your checkout page needs a different message than someone who never opened an email. The webinar attendee who clicked every link deserves more than your standard nurture sequence. And if you're treating them all the same, you're not just losing sales - you're burning out the warmest leads you worked so hard to build.Segmentation isn't about making your life more complicated. It's about making your post-launch follow-up more precise, more automated, and infinitely more profitable. When you tag by behavior, you unlock the ability to send the right message to the right person at exactly the right time - without manually sorting through your list or writing dozens of different emails every week.In this episode of Launch Confidential, Diana and Taylor break down the exact email list segmentation strategy that separates coaches who ghost their audience from coaches who stack momentum and sales after every cart close.You'll learn:The four critical segments every coach needs to create post-launch (buyers, engaged non-buyers, abandoned cart leads, and new warm leads)How to tag your list based on behavior without getting lost in CRM overwhelmThe three automations you can set up once and reuse for every launchWhat to send each segment after cart close to maximize downsell conversions and prime them for your next launchWhy engagement tracking reveals exactly who's ready to buy (and how to follow up accordingly)How to nurture without writing five different newsletters every week for the rest of your lifeThe simple tagging system that works in any email platform - no tech degree requiredThis isn't about complicating your email strategy. It's about creating a scalable, repeatable segmentation system that turns your warmest post-launch leads into customers - automatically.KEY MOMENTS03:33 - The common trap: treating all email subscribers the same post-launch04:17 - Why segmentation separates successful coaches from those starting from zero every launch06:26 - The tech setup: how to organize your email list without CRM overwhelm08:45 - The four critical segments you need to create (and why each one matters)11:30 - How to identify and tag engaged non-buyers who are primed for a downsell14:15 - The abandoned cart segment: following up with people who had cold feet16:45 - What to do with new warm leads who registered but didn't engage20:25 - What to send each segment after your launch closes25:28 - The most important aspects of list segmentation (and where to focus first)26:38 - How to keep it simple without over-building your automation27:32 - Why you don't need to write different emails forever28:53 - Four key takeaways for segmentation successCONNECT + RESOURCESWe’ll be adding links to our favorite tools, trainings, and launch resources here as the podcast grows.

If you're calling it a wrap as soon as the cart closes, you're walking away from the hottest audience you'll have all year. Those non-buyers are ON FIRE - but only for a hot minute before that window slams shut. Miss it, and you're leaving money (and momentum) on the table.They just spent time watching you, engaging with you, learning from you. Some were this close to buying. Others are already feeling buyer's remorse - not for what they purchased, but for what they didn't. They wanted to say yes but the timing, the price, or the trust wasn't quite there yet.And if you know what to do in that 48–72 hour window after cart close, you can meet them exactly where they are - and turn that leftover sizzle into real revenue, without re-launching or burning out.In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana walk you through a simple, repeatable 5-step post-launch checklist and break down:The post-cart-close system to sustain momentum and stack results without re-launchingWhy the post-launch week is your hottest sales window (and what happens when you go dark) How to automate your entire post-launch system so you can rest AND keep selling The strategy that effortlessly adds thousands in revenue after cart close Why cart close isn't the finish line - it's the starting gun for your next launch cycleBy the end of this episode, you'll know exactly what to do in the 48-72 hours after cart close to turn leftover momentum into trust, sales, and compounding results.KEY MOMENTS 03:03 - Why the week after cart-close is your hottest window03:50 - How to carry launch momentum into the next cycle08:24 - How to segment & tag your non-buyers strategically09:52 - Creating and positioning bridge offers that meet people where they are16:48 - The low-budget retargeting strategy that works while you rest17:44 - Why momentum dies when you don’t have a post-launch system18:00 - Visibility after cart close (without burnout)CONNECT + RESOURCESWe’ll be adding links to our favorite tools, trainings, and launch resources here as the podcast grows.
