A 5-day live challenge for the creative business owner who’s ready to launch with a waitlist that’s not just full… but filled with people who actually want what you’re selling.
When you join you get instant access to the trainings + templates plus your seat at the live March 16-20 that includes live calls and community support in Slack all week.
You have an offer. You're just not sure how to get people excited about it.
You've tried to build a waitlist before — but it felt haphazard, inconsistent, and never quite worked
You're great at marketing for your clients, but when it comes to talking about yourself? You freeze
You're coming back from mat leave, a life transition, or a long time off-grid and want to rebuild momentum without burning out doing it
You know you need consistency — you just don't know what to say on the days you do show up
You've done a launch before, made some sales, and know you're doing something right... but you can't replicate it
You're planning your first-ever launch and want someone in your corner who's done this before
You've been sitting on a digital product or program and keep waiting for the "right time" to start talking about it
You've had the course, read the books, and made the plans — but the follow-through keeps slipping
Build a community that actually wants to buy your offers (no more friend zone)
Over 5 days, we'll work together to grow your waitlist from scratch. Join the Warm Waitlist Week March 16-20.
🧠 A daily audio training (short + spicy)
💬 A pop up community of creatives in the challenge
💌 Email templates, social media prompts + checklists
📱 A done-for-you 2 week warm waitlist social media and email schedule

Let's turn those lurkers into loyal clients
The Warm Waitlist Week is happening live March 16-20.
- 🧠 A daily audio training (short + spicy)
- 💬 A pop up community of creatives in the challenge with daily support + feedback from Kelsey
- 💌 Email templates, social media prompts + checklists

No stress! While the Slack community is live and buzzing from March 16-20, you’ll have access to all the trainings and materials to go through in your own time.
Yes — especially if you want to create moments energy and momentum around an evergreen or always-open offer.
A waitlist gives you a chance to build buzz, collect interest, and create a conversion spike without needing to close your cart. This is perfect for promo periods, limited bonuses, or “doors open” campaigns you run throughout the year.
This day is all about what happens after someone joins your waitlist — the often-forgotten nurture phase that builds trust before cart open.
You’ll get an overview and plug-and-play ideas for content that warms up your audience. If you’re in the Boosted tier, you’ll also get access to extra templates and personalized feedback on your nurture sequence if you want it!
That’s okay! One of the first things we do inside the challenge is help you choose a campaign focus. Whether you’re launching a course, a service, a freebie funnel, or you just want to create more interest around your work — this week will give you structure, clarity, and forward momentum.
It’s a perfect complement! LYOW covers the full campaign cycle in depth, while this challenge is a focused 5-day sprint to help you specifically grow and activate your waitlist. Think of it like a pre-campaign power-up. If you’re inside LYOW and want a boost of accountability, structure, or just to connect with other creatives heading into launch season — this is for you.
Absolutely. Whether you’re planning your first campaign or just want a refresh on your warm-up strategy, this challenge will walk you through it step-by-step — from setting up the tech to mapping your content. We’ve had everyone from seasoned marketers to brand-new business owners take part and find their groove.
Yes! There will be a replay every day you can go back to the recordings at anytime.
