Summary

Winging your course launch might feel bold, brave, or spontaneous, but in reality? It’s the fastest way to burn out your energy and your audience.

In this episode, I’m walking you through why “just getting it out there” rarely works, what the data actually says about successful launches, and what to do instead if you want your course to convert (without exhausting yourself or your audience).

If you’ve been circling the idea of launching your course but don’t know where to start, or if you’ve launched before and it flopped...this episode is for you.

I cover:

  • Why most course launches flop (even with a great offer)

  • The 3 biggest reasons creators wing it—and how it backfires

  • Conversion rate stats that will change how you plan forever

Plus, I’m sharing a free invite to my signature masterclass, The Course Creator Launch Lab, where I show you my tested, proven, and totally doable launch method.

  • The Course Creator Launch Lab
    Turn your 1:1 process into a course that sells—and launch it without the guesswork.
    👉www.therisingwolf.com/course-creator-launch-lab-join?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=Shownotes⁠

  • Inside this free 90-minute free training, you’ll learn how to:
    ✅ Clarify your course topic
    ✅ Build a transformational (and scalable) offer
    ✅ Launch with a step-by-step strategy that feels GOOD


    JOURNAL PROMPTS / ACTION STEPS:

    1. Where have I been “winging it” in my business—and what has it cost me energetically or financially?

    2. What do I need to feel safe, supported, and strategic in my next launch?

    3. What would it look like if I treated my course like a business, not a bonus?

    4. What’s one small thing I can commit to this week to prepare my audience for what’s coming?

    5. Have I clearly mapped the transformation my course provides? If not, start with that today.

    Hello, hello and welcome. I'm so happy. Welcome to the podcast. We're going to be diving into a really

    0:06.1

    cool topic today. I'm so excited. So you know that I have been in online, an online business

    0:13.2

    owner since 2016. And with that being said, I've had online education since 2016. It was the first time I've ever launched an online

    0:23.6

    program. And ever since then, I've launched many other additional times and have learned so much

    0:29.8

    around launch course creation and have scaled a multi-million dollar company because of it.

    0:34.6

    And I know a lot around what to do, what not to do. And I'm really excited to

    0:41.0

    start taking it in a little bit here. So we want to talk a little bit today about why we don't

    0:46.5

    want to wing it when it comes to course creation and why it potentially could backfire. So usually

    0:53.4

    one of the things of why people will wing it

    0:57.0

    and is because of three specific things. Number one is overwhelmed. They're not really sure

    1:04.7

    where to start. So they just start somewhere where I have to say, as a girl who is scrappy,

    1:10.7

    I admire that. I admire the

    1:14.6

    starting energy. However, you may have a great first launch, but scaling it becomes the challenge.

    1:22.5

    So we'll talk about that in a little bit. Number two is impatience. They're just excited and they

    1:26.9

    want to get it out fast. Again, I love scrappiness. I'm here for it. I'm down for it. But again,

    1:34.5

    there is, again, from being in this space for so long, I can tell in two seconds why someone's

    1:40.4

    course is not going to be scalable and or make the amount of revenue that they want it to.

    1:44.8

    And at the end of the day, you want your course in the hands of more people.

    1:48.7

    And you want it to, um, you want it to help people as well.

    1:53.3

    So with that being said, the third thing is underestimating what a launch requires,

    1:58.2

    like what the actual steps are.

    1:59.9

    They might think that it's like, okay, so I'll just write it out or I'll just like record some
