Summary

What does it look like to do what most people do in 18 months... in just two months?

Chaotic. Brilliant. And full of lessons worth documenting.

In this week's episode, Kelly delivers the second installment of her Miracle Hour launch debrief, walking through the specific strategies that worked, the ones that fell flat, and the exact framework she is already using with private clients and building into the Sacred Art of Selling launch plan.

From the mini sprint model she is calling their best ever company execution, to the content day where she recorded 50 videos in a single sitting, to the community lives that converted at the highest rate of anything they did, Kelly holds nothing back.

She also gets honest about the things that did not go the way she planned. 

This episode is a masterclass in what it actually takes to launch a book, a product, or a movement. 

If you are planning a launch of any kind, this one is required listening.

Timestamps:

00:45: Why Kelly ended up doing an 18-month book launch in two months, and why she still calls it their best ever company execution

04:30: Bulk buy campaign as sprint one:  what worked, what she would do differently, and why she would start a full year out next time

06:00: Pre-launching at the Legacy Leaders event in March: why she will always do this first for every future book

07:15: The book inventory mistake: why she wishes she had ordered 1,000 copies instead of 100 and what it cost her

08:30: The webinar she bombed twice before changing one variable and converting consistently

10:00: Why she believes 5,000 to 10,000 street team regstrations was possible with more runway and manpower

11:30: The content day strategy: how recording 50 videos in one sitting kept the campaign fed for weeks without slowing down execution

12:45: Why teaching inside other people's communities was the single highest-converting activity of the entire launch

14:00: The VIP experience: why doing the in-person event simultaneously with the live stream was a huge risk that paid off completely

We broke this campaign into mini sprints. This is the first time we ever did this and it worked really, really well.

0:07.0

I think it was our best ever execution as a company. We sold hundreds of VIPs for this launch.

0:12.3

I was really excited about that. We kind of pre-launched the book at the Legacy Leaders event in March.

0:20.0

That was a huge success. It gave us a ton of content. One of my

0:22.9

content days, I recorded 50 different videos about the Miracle Hour book, 50. I think I did maybe 20

0:30.7

lives in people's communities and they converted at a really high level for both book sales, VIPs, and

0:40.4

registrations. That killed three birds with one stone pretty much everywhere that I went. I always

0:45.5

make a joke to Danielle that I'm just going to be like a little old lady and all I'm going to do

0:51.4

is write books and record podcasts because I just love teaching

0:56.2

and serving and selling in those ways. And just coming off of this miracle hour launch,

1:04.7

there are so many things that I am excited to share with all of you and so many learnings and so much growth.

1:12.6

And it's really just deepened my conviction around not only just the importance of books,

1:20.7

but also the opportunity of books.

1:24.6

And I'm already, you know, as you all know, we're pitching for the sacred art of

1:29.9

selling right now. We just got the trademark approved, which is super exciting. I'm starting on

1:35.8

also turning the business reinvention playbook into a full book, which I'm super excited about.

1:43.3

So a lot ahead. What I thought I would do on the show

1:47.8

today is I thought that I would walk through just a few of the key things from this Miracle

1:55.9

Hour launch that I definitely will do again. And then the things that I won't or that I'll do differently.

2:03.0

And then we're having a full intensive on this next Wednesday at 1 p.m. Eastern, which

2:12.1

you cannot buy a ticket to this.

2:14.1

You cannot attend publicly.
