Launch Strategy vs Sales Enablement

Launch Strategy

By Corey Haines (Marketing)

Plan product launches, feature releases, and go-to-market campaigns that build momentum.

Sales Enablement

By Corey Haines (Marketing)

Create pitch decks, one-pagers, objection handling docs, and demo scripts that help close deals.

Launch Strategy

• Creates phased launch plans from internal testing through full public release
• Structures marketing across owned (email, blog), rented (social media), and borrowed (partnerships) channels
• Provides Product Hunt launch strategies including pre-launch prep and day-of tactics
• Suggests launch touchpoints like customer emails, in-app announcements, and social posts
• Recommends ways to build waitlists, early access programs, and invite-only momentum

Sales Enablement

• Builds 10-12 slide pitch decks tailored to different buyer types (technical, economic, champion)
• Creates scannable one-pagers for post-meeting follow-ups, internal champions, and trade shows
• Generates objection handling docs with ready responses for price, timing, competition, and status quo concerns
• Designs ROI calculators and value propositions customized by persona (CTO, VP Sales, CFO, end user)
• Produces demo scripts and talk tracks that guide reps through product walkthroughs
