About this event

In this Online Event, you’ll dive into entrepreneurial case studies from successful launches in media — from gaming to tech start-ups to YouTube channels to podcasting. You’ll learn how to create a framework for how to structure a 30-day launch plan for your business/startup media project. You’ll also find out how to define goal-oriented milestones to help create and evaluate your idea no matter how early you are in the process.

Takeaways

  • Learn to treat your idea like you would any startup: create a minimum valuable product, build a plan to empower your alpha community, and set yourself up to acquire users/customers/emails.
  • Define the micro-community for your idea, building a content creation plan and editorial calendar while prioritizing an outreach action plan to find the first 1,000 fans/users.
  • Create goal-oriented milestones for a 30-day launch, creating a systematic launch framework, testing your idea with your early community, and identifying key partners, advisors, and advocates for longer-term relationships.
  • Choose a launch date, working backward to prioritize launch goals: Marketing, Funding, Business Development, and Building/creating.
