How an American launch works

The model repeats from producer to producer, with variations in tone and length.

Before

Lead capture

Ads and organic content drive people to a free registration page, weeks before the event starts.

During

Live content

Daily or spaced-out sessions deliver real value and build trust in the producer before any offer appears.

Mid-way

Cart opens

The paid offer is introduced during or right after the sessions, usually with an entry-level price and a companion offer.

End

Cart closes

The cart shuts on a fixed date, creating the urgency that drives a large share of the launch's conversions.

Why 24-hour replays matter

Most major American launches release the recording of each session for a short window — usually 24 hours.

  • Lowers the time-zone barrier for an international audience.
  • Keeps the live feel intact even for people watching after the fact.
  • Still preserves the urgency of the cart close, which never gets extended.

Launch glossary

The terms that show up every time an American producer opens a cart.

Cart
The window during which the paid offer can be purchased. "Cart open" and "cart close" mark the start and end of that window.
Evergreen
A product or funnel available for purchase year-round, with no fixed opening or closing date.
JV (joint venture)
A partnership between two producers to launch a product or event together, splitting audience and commissions.
Order bump
A low-cost add-on offer presented at checkout, right before the order is finalized.
Upsell
A companion offer presented immediately after the main purchase, usually at a higher price point.
Sales webinar
A live or recorded presentation that teaches something of value and ends with the paid offer.
Replay
A recording of a live session, released for a short window for anyone who missed it live.
Affiliate program
A structure that lets third parties promote the product in exchange for a commission on each sale they generate.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from people just starting to follow American launches.

What is a digital product launch?

It's a time-boxed campaign to sell a digital product, usually preceded by free content (lessons, challenges, live events) and closed out when the sales cart shuts.

What's the difference between a launch and an evergreen product?

A launch has a fixed start and end date, which creates real urgency. An evergreen product stays available continuously, with no closing window.

Why do producers partner up (JVs) with each other?

A partnership combines both producers' audiences, which usually results in a bigger launch than either could pull off alone — as with the joint event between Russell Brunson and Iman Gadzhi.

Is it worth joining a free event that leads to a paid offer?

It depends on genuine interest in the content. Most of these events deliver real value in the free sessions; the decision on the paid offer is best made calmly, outside the heat of the moment.
