Four ways to launch suit different offers and audiences. This lesson compares them so you choose deliberately.
Open-close and evergreen
Open-close sells for a fixed window with a real deadline; evergreen sells continuously with an automated sequence. Open-close concentrates attention; evergreen compounds.
Beta and challenge
A beta launch sells an unfinished offer at a lower price to a small group who shape it; a challenge launch runs a free multi-day activity that ends in the offer. Beta suits first launches; challenges suit engaged audiences.
Choose by stage
First offer, small list: beta. Proven offer, engaged list: open-close or challenge. Proven offer, steady traffic: evergreen.
Keep scope small and finish it this weekend; a completed simple version beats an unfinished thorough one.
Use only claims you can stand behind in anything you publish from this lesson; invented numbers, ratings, or testimonials are never worth the risk.
Action Step
Score your situation on the model chooser and record the launch model you will run.
