A launch is not a day, it’s a sequence. The teams that nail it treat the 90 days around launch as a single orchestrated campaign — waitlist, creator seeding, embargoed press, and paid — all timed so they amplify each other instead of competing for attention.
For Fernweh, we sequenced 320 creators ahead of an embargoed press moment, then layered paid on top the day the App Store feature went live. The result was 480k installs in 90 days at a $2.10 blended CPI.
The lesson: stack your channels in time, not just in budget. A coordinated moment beats a louder one.
