Brands dealing in physical products are always vying for attention with other brands selling both online and offline. Doing product launches and doing them right ultimately decides how the product is perceived and how it performs. And with more and more brands jumping on the product-launch bandwagon, getting creative with launches is becoming imperative.

What if you could launch your product in a way that creates buzz, exclusivity, and also rewards your loyal customers? Gated launches help you achieve just this and are the next level of product launches where your marketing tech stack and social media presence come together to skyrocket sales.

In this episode, Kunle and Jordan talk about using Gated Launches as a marketing strategy. You will get to hear everything from what a gated launch is, how to prepare for it and execute it. You will also get some really cool strategies to build a loyal following on social media.  This is a great episode for eCommerce merchants and marketers.
