Problem

Most DTC launches don't fail at launch. They fail months earlier — the launch just makes it visible. The mistakes that decide the outcome get made when nothing feels urgent yet.

The 120-Day Launch Blueprint

The full system for launching a DTC brand — four phases, eight workstreams, week by week — built so the foundation work happens when it's cheap and calm, not when it's on fire and public.

Why This Publication Exists

The launch is the reveal, not the risk.

Most founders spend nine months perfecting the product and three weeks planning the launch. Then go-live arrives, traffic comes, and every system that was quietly never finished picks that exact moment to show itself. The checkout leaks. Tracking was never verified, so the algorithm can't find buyers. The email flows were built the night before.

None of it broke on launch day. It was built broken — launch just turned the lights on. And the cruel part is the timing: the decisions that determine whether a launch works get made in the first few weeks, when there's no revenue yet, nothing on fire, and skipping the foundation work carries no visible cost.

This publication is the system that prevents it — 120 days, four phases, eight workstreams, laid out so the boring foundation work happens when it's cheap and calm, in an order where each piece holds up the next.

What You'll Be Able to Do

After reading this publication.

  • Sequence a launch across four phases, so nothing critical gets skipped under pressure
  • Build the foundation — site, tracking, email, ads — before it has to perform live
  • Know which of the eight workstreams to work on, and in what week
  • Separate real early signals from the noise of the first few weeks
  • Avoid the shortcuts that stay invisible until they become fires in week five
  • Turn a launch from an event you survive into a system you run

Inside the Publication

What the publication covers.

01

The 120-Day Method

The four phases — Build, Launch, Optimise, Scale — and why the order is the whole point.

02

Phase 01 · Build (Weeks 1–4)

The foundation across all eight workstreams — the work that feels optional because there's no revenue yet, and decides everything.

03

Phase 02 · Launch (Weeks 5–8)

Go-to-market, first campaigns, and reading early signals without overreacting to noise.

04

Phase 03 · Optimise (Weeks 9–12)

Turning assumptions into evidence — fixing what leaks before spending more to prove it.

05

Phase 04 · Scale (Weeks 13–17)

Expanding spend at the pace your weakest system can hold, not the pace the ad account can absorb.

06

The Eight Workstreams

How website, paid, email, content, tracking, social, journey, and conversion connect across the whole launch.

The sequence in this publication is built from the same patterns found across real diagnostics — the shortcuts, the skipped foundations, the week-five fires that show up again and again. Nothing here is theoretical. It's the launch order that avoids the mistakes most brands only see in hindsight.

Before You Download

Questions founders usually ask.

01

Is this a physical book?

No. It's a digital publication — instant PDF download. Nothing is shipped.

02

Can I print it?

Yes. The PDF is print-ready at A4 and Letter size.

03

I've already launched. Is this still useful?

Yes. Most brands never built the foundation properly the first time — the Build and Optimise phases are just as useful as a retroactive audit of what's missing.

04

Do I need to do all eight workstreams at once?

No. The publication sequences them week by week, so you always know what to work on now and what can wait.

05

What's the catch if it's free?

None. You get the full publication for an email. If it's useful, you'll know where to find me.

Need Help Applying This?

The blueprint gives you the system. A partner runs it with you.

A launch runs across every workstream at once, and the sequencing is where it's easily lost. If you'd rather have the 120-day system run with you — built and executed for your specific brand — that's exactly what the partnership is for.
