What if you could reach thousands of new people every day for less than your morning coffee run? No complex funnels. No hiring an expensive ads agency. No creating mountains of new content every week. Just $1/day behind each of your best posts.
Because here's the problem with organic reach: even your most brilliant content is only seen by around 5% of your existing followers.
Which means you're stuck in an endless loop of showing up for the same limited audience, while thousands of people who need your help have no idea you exist.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down:
- Their exact low-budget set-it-and-forget-it content amplification strategy
- How to identify which posts deserve ad spend
- Setting up awareness ads the right way in Ads Manager (NOT that evil "boost" button)
- Building custom audiences you can retarget later
- The only three metrics that really matter when you're buying visibility (not conversions)
It's not about becoming a Meta ads expert or drowning in analytics. It's about amplifying what's already working so you can reach 1000's more NEW people than organic reach ever could.
KEY MOMENTS
02:10 The low budget strategy that changes everything (no funnels, no agency required)
04:26 The brutal truth about organic growth - why "just post more" won’t grow your business
06:03 The real numbers: how many people actually see your social content?
10:44 What the true objective of awareness ads is (hint: not conversions or lead generation)
12:42 The content audit that tells you exactly where to put your ad spend
13:56 Why reels beat everything else for reach (especially when you’re retargeting)

17:33 The Andromeda update: why everything you knew about targeting just changed
19:28 Why Ads Manager isn’t as impossible as it tries to be - and the hidden toggles wasting your budget
23:13 The only 3 metrics that truly matter for awareness campaigns
24:07 Your 5-step visibility campaign implementation plan
What if everything you've been told about posting frequency is backwards?
You're watching other creators post daily - sometimes multiple times a day - and you're convinced that's what it takes. So you batch on Sunday, show up strong for three days, burn out by Thursday, disappear for two weeks, feel guilty, then panic-post six times in three days to catch up.
That cycle? It's not just exhausting. It's actually tanking your reach.
The algorithm doesn't care that you posted ten times last week. It cares that you ghosted this week. And every time you do that, you're training it not to trust you.
Turns out, the algorithm rewards reliability over volume. Predictability over hustle. Consistency over bursts. And most creators are doing the exact opposite of what actually works.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down what the algorithm is actually optimizing for, why sporadic posting destroys your reach even when you're creating great content, and how to find a posting rhythm that grows your audience without burning you out.
Spoiler: it's way less than you think. And yes, you have permission.

04:10 - What "reliably" means to the algorithm (and why it matters more than frequency)

We’ll be adding links to our favorite tools, trainings, and launch resources here as the podcast grows. For now, come hang out with us:
You spent weeks crafting your launch content. The emails that got replies. The posts that stopped the scroll. The sales page copy that actually converted. The reels you did your hair and makeup for.
And then cart closed, you filed everything away in a Google Drive folder you'll never find again, and sat down the next week to create content from scratch.
Again.
BUT… Here’s the thing. You’re already sitting on your highest converting messaging ever created - content that’s been proven to move people toward buying - and you’re letting it die while you burn out trying to match that level of genius all over again. Every. Single. Week.
Launch content isn’t temporary, single-use promo content that expires when the cart closes. It's the most strategically valuable content you'll ever create because you're writing from total clarity - dialed into your offer's exact transformation, your ideal client's real objections, and the precise language that moves people into taking action.
That clarity is what makes people convert. And you’re archiving it in your Google Drive.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down the Launch-to-Runway System - how to turn your best launch assets into a year-round nurture machine that fills your content calendar without burning out.

You crafted what you thought was the perfect pain point content. Really dug into their struggle, showed them you understand their problem, validated their pain.
And then... crickets. Or worse - great engagement, but zero sales.
Here's what nobody's telling you: pain point marketing isn't just failing to convert anymore. It's actually training your audience to be professional tire kickers. Buyers are more sophisticated now. What worked three years ago is creating comparison shoppers instead of committed buyers.
Meanwhile, there are coaches who post about their offer once and get flooded with DMs asking "How do I work with you?" and "Where do I sign up?" Same market, same platform - completely different results.
The difference? They're not dwelling in the pain. They're leading with identity.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down exactly why pain-focused messaging is killing conversions and prolonging your sales cycles - and introduce their three-layer messaging system that flips the script entirely. This is the framework they use with every client, in every launch, across every piece of content.
KEY MOMENTS
01:51 - Why pain point marketing is keeping you broke (and training your audience to be indecisive)
04:11 - What pain point marketing is actually costing you in sales cycle length
05:44 - Introducing identity-first marketing: the three-layer messaging system
07:37 - Desire - the bridge from pain to transformation (and painting the picture of possibility)
10:42 - Identity - speaking to who they're becoming (not just what they want)
19:29 - Real examples: pain-first vs identity-first messaging (same topic, completely different results)
20:57 - How to implement this: the three-question check system for every piece of content
22:13 - Your homework: audit your last three posts through the identity-first lens
24:16 - The big takeaway: pain point marketing isn't wrong, it's just incomplete
After 10 episodes of tactical strategies and frameworks, you might be wondering: who are these women telling me how to launch?
Fair question. And we think it’s time you get to know us a little better.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana interview each other and share their partnership journey - from running Facebook ads agencies in 2020 to building a launch coaching business together.
They unpack the unique methodologies and frameworks that became the foundation of Launch Babes - including their Launch Intelligence™ diagnostic system - and share the mindset shifts that help online coaches and course creators escape feast-or-famine launch cycles.
Just a real conversation about collaboration and building something sustainable… together.

39:07 - Why warm audiences convert 5x higher than cold traffic
39:58 - Two actions to take this week: data analysis and between-launch visibility
It's the end of 2025, and you're staring down the last days of the year with a choice: grind through the holidays to "finish strong," or (more tempting) take a legit vacation from your desk - and hope your audience doesn't notice and still remembers you exist after New Year's.
Here's the thing - neither of those options actually works.
The coaches who start January strong aren't the ones hustling until December 31st, and they're not the ones disappearing for three weeks either. They're the ones running a simple, sustainable, and strategic visibility system that keeps them top of mind while they're actually enjoying the holidays with their families.
December isn't about finishing strong by someone else's definition (looking at you, guys in Patagonia vests posting on Instagram about Q4 heroics). It's about clearing the runway so you can take off in January feeling energized instead of depleted. Real momentum doesn't come from sprinting to the finish line - it comes from cleaning up mental clutter, staying visible when your competitors disappear, and creating spaciousness instead of stress.
Think of this as your permission slip to build a business that doesn't require you to miss your kids' Christmas concert or answer Slack pings between wrapping presents. Because the entrepreneurs who thrive in Q1 aren't the ones who worked through every holiday in Q4 - they're the ones who used December to set up systems that run while they're drinking hot cocoa and watching "Elf" (again).
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana share their exact anti-hustle approach to ending the year - four simple strategies that build real momentum heading into 2026 without sacrificing a single holiday moment or burning yourself out before the new year even begins.
This is your holiday-themed reminder: Hustle-culture? Soooo 2024.
Momentum in 2026 is all about making room for you to be present in your own life - not just your work.
KEY MOMENTS
03:43 - Why the "finish strong" pressure is broken - and permission to define it on your own terms
04:14 - The toxic hustle-through-December advice - why it’s a lie
04:45 - What real momentum looks like (hint: it's the opposite of grinding)
06:10 - Strategy #1: Clearing 2025 mental and physical clutter to create spaciousness for 2026 (hello, ADHD entrepreneurs)
08:45 - Strategy #2: Visibility when your competitors disappear - without doing more
10:25 - How to batch December content in 20 minutes using simple B-roll and static images (no talking head reels required)
11:47 - Strategy #3: Why giving your audience a no-strings-attached gift is your most strategic move
13:54 - Strategy #4: One tiny experiment to try for forward momentum and useful data (without launching anything)
14:35 - Recap and connect: how to share your ideas with us!
Most coaches treat cart close like a finish line. Strategic coaches know it's a starting gun.
Here's what separates them: while everyone else is ghosting their warmest audience to "recover," the coaches who actually scale are running a systematized post-launch funnel that turns non-buyers into next-cycle customers - automatically.
The 48-72 hours after your cart closes? That's not downtime. That's your highest-converting window of the entire year. Your non-buyers just spent a week watching you, learning from you, getting this close to buying. Some are sitting in buyer's remorse for what they didn't purchase. Others needed one more nudge, one more bridge, one more reason to trust you.
And if you don't have a plan for that window, you're not just leaving money on the table - you're training your audience to wait you out. They know you'll disappear. They know you'll resurface months later, starting from scratch. They know the launch cycle resets to zero because you never built a runway.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down The Post-Launch Profit System - a simple, repeatable 5-step checklist that keeps your launch funnel running while you rest, turns leftover momentum into compounding results, and makes every cart close the start of your next launch cycle (not the end of your revenue).
You'll learn:
- The Post-Launch Black Hole and why disappearing after cart close is killing your launch ROI
- How to automate your entire post-launch funnel so momentum stacks instead of resets
- The segmentation strategy that turns engaged non-buyers into downsell customers (and future buyers)
- Why bridge offers aren't consolation prizes - they're trust-builders that lead to premium sales
- The retargeting system that keeps you visible for $5-15/day while you recover
- How to pre-schedule 90 days of runway so your next launch never starts from zero
This isn't about launching more. It's about making every launch count more - by building a system that converts after cart close, not just during it.
KEY MOMENTS
03:10 - Why the week after cart close is your hottest conversion window
04:05 - How to carry launch momentum into your next cycle (instead of starting over)
08:45 - The segmentation strategy that tracks engagement and positions your downsell
10:15 - Bridge offers that build trust and lead to premium purchases (not discount sales)
17:05 - The low-budget retargeting system that works while you rest
17:55 - Why momentum dies when you don't have a post-launch profit system
18:20 - How to stay visible after cart close without burning out
If you're calling it a wrap as soon as the cart closes, you're walking away from the hottest audience you'll have all year. Those non-buyers are ON FIRE - but only for a hot minute before that window slams shut. Miss it, and you're leaving money (and momentum) on the table.
They just spent time watching you, engaging with you, learning from you. Some were this close to buying. Others are already feeling buyer's remorse - not for what they purchased, but for what they didn't. They wanted to say yes but the timing, the price, or the trust wasn't quite there yet.
And if you know what to do in that 48–72 hour window after cart close, you can meet them exactly where they are - and turn that leftover sizzle into real revenue, without re-launching or burning out.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana walk you through a simple, repeatable 5-step post-launch checklist and break down:
- The post-cart-close system to sustain momentum and stack results without re-launching
- Why the post-launch week is your hottest sales window (and what happens when you go dark)
- How to automate your entire post-launch system so you can rest AND keep selling
- The strategy that effortlessly adds thousands in revenue after cart close
- Why cart close isn't the finish line - it's the starting gun for your next launch cycle
By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly what to do in the 48-72 hours after cart close to turn leftover momentum into trust, sales, and compounding results.

If you’ve ever said “I just need a bigger list and my launches will finally take off,” this episode is your gentle (but firm) intervention.
Because… no.
Not all subscribers are buyers.
Some are browsing, some are collecting freebies... And a list full of those? It’s like running a boutique for people who only ever “try things on”.
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana break down:

By the end of this episode, you’ll walk away knowing how to audit your freebie, align it with your paid offer, and start growing a list that actually converts.
Bottom line: It’s not how many people you attract. It’s who you attract - and your lead magnet is the bouncer at the door.

Still cramming all your trust-building, objection-handling, and closing into five frantic days?
Still treating cart close like “The End” instead of the starting gun for your next launch?
In this episode of Launch Confidential, Taylor and Diana reframe launch week as the receipt printer, not the whole business model.
