Simple Launch Over Polished Production

Why It Works

Authenticity beats polish. A simple camcorder video feels more real than a produced ad. Low production signals confidence in the product itself.

How to Execute

1

Set constraints: no money on marketing, no fancy launch videos

2

Use simple recording equipment - phone or basic camera

3

Focus on genuine message, not production value

4

Let product quality carry the launch

5

Save polish for the product, not the marketing

When It Fails

When your product is not actually remarkable enough to carry simple presentation. When your audience expects certain production quality. When simple reads as lazy rather than authentic.

Real Example

Launch with simple camcorder video of you talking about the app instead of polished commercial. The authenticity signals substance over hype.
