I've Watched Thousands of Launches And Here's What Works

If you're about to launch your paid community, you already know the temptation: post on social media, cross your fingers, and hope the right people show up.

In this episode, Gina Bianchini breaks down the exact launch formula she's watched work for everyone from first-time creators to multimillion-dollar brands — the sales page formula, the two-to-four-week timeline, the new member live event, and the simplest way to bring in your first paying members without relying on an algorithm.
