A product launch is a very essential marketing strategy that gives a new product the thrust it requires to put it into a competitive position alongside existing products. This is like giving out a coming of age birthday bash or ballroom dance where the young adult is let to display themselves for the world to know and notice. The bash gives the person a strong footing in the social circle and goes a long way in helping them tackle the unknown vast ness out there.
In the same way a product launch displays the new product to the entire market and sets it apace with its like so that then on it can engage itself in tough competition. The difference is that whereas as the "new person" will conduct and monitor much of its activities on its own, the "new product" must be closely followed and supported throughout to ensure its continuing success. A gallant product launch can go to waste in the absence of solid after launch campaigns.
A product launch does not necessarily have to be a big event requiring a team setting up the product for display and introduction and media public and the public thronging to the venue. Much of the world's affairs have been digitized. These days we can have a successful digital product launch as well. In fact a physical launch makes little sense for smaller companies and smaller products. For these reasons till recently such products has had to go without a launch like hapless teenagers with no rich parent to afford a bash. But no more so! With the introduction and subsequent popularization of digitized marketing any product can have a great and competitive consumer launch via the media and the internet.
One of the primary forms of digital product launch is through still and motion ads displayed through a television network, a digitized advertisement board, in theatres and multiplexes and in fiction and documentary movie disks. You can have your ad targeted at the prime slots of a television network to have the greatest audience. They can be played in theatres before and in the middle of a film. You can also tie up with companies producing and distributing movie disks to have your ad included in their disks.
The other big thing is the internet. With the internet you can reach millions of users and potential customers through video ads in flash or other formats and also on sites and mass promotional mailers and clever strategies. The most obvious solution is to place flash or movie ads, moving tickers and still ads or even simple texts on websites and social networking sites. Google ads are a wonderful way of reaching a vast number of potential customers. Twitter is perhaps the greatest place among social networking sites to announce the launch of a product among a huge number of followers.
You can use more subtle and less perceptible techniques. Place on your website a "ask for more" link in the section describing your new product. People clicking on these links will have to provide their names and email addresses before getting the new information. This helps to build a mailer list of people with considerable interest in the product.
