Episode notes
Tease Strategically, Not Constantly
- Tease big launches proportionally to their revenue opportunity and avoid teasing every small drop.
- Use short, focused teaser windows (e.g., five days) to build anticipation without cannibalizing sales.
Gamify Teasers To Drive Signups
- Gamify teaser pages by revealing one product per day and require users to sign up to see each reveal.
- Use the PDP visual to keep open loops and drive email/SMS signups ahead of launch.
Get Reviews Before Public Launch
- Ship early units to passionate community members and ask them for reviews before public launch.
- Use those day-one reviews to boost conversion and trust on the PDP.
