8 years ago I had a dream to start a Subscription Box service full of goodies for women to treat themselves and nurture the importance of self care. It took me a full 18 months to make it happen! I was paralyzed by ‘all the things’ I had to figure out with no one to turn to for guidance. That is why I created Launch Your Box! Maybe you need some direction on how to begin, or you are ready to grow your subscriber base. Either way, it all starts with an idea that can turn into a constant reoccurring revenue, a raving fan base, and a business to love. I will help you... Take your first steps and know where to start. Figuring out the logistics: packing, shipping, boxes, oh my! Learn how to launch, from idea to sales. Scale that box to the next level, go big or go home!2021-2026 Sarah Williams Economía Educación Gestión y Liderazgo Liderazgo

    Creating a One-Thing of the Month Subscription
    Feb 18 2026
    Have you considered starting with a one-thing of the month subscription? You should. Why do I say that? Well, my one-thing of the month subscription is easier to manage and more profitable than my fully curated subscription box. And my one-thing of the month subscription has almost double the number of subscribers as my larger, more expensive box. When people start thinking about starting a subscription box, they think about a fully curated box. They dream about the experience they’ll provide their subscribers with all the little touches and a box filled with items that complement each other. But soon, overwhelm sets in. Creating that fully curated experience with all the little touches takes a LOT of work. And all that work and all that overwhelm can turn into not making progress. Instead of starting with a fully curated box, think about starting with one thing. There are several benefits to starting a one-thing of the month subscription. A one-thing of the month subscription: Has the lowest barrier to getting started. Fewer vendors to work with. Lower start-up funds. Packaging that is simple and the same each month! Is easier to fulfill and ship. Has the potential for higher profit margins. Brainstorm what your one item could be by asking yourself: What is your best-selling item? What do people repeatedly buy? What do people constantly ask you for more of? Your one-thing of the month could be: Something fun - a no-frills way for subscribers to treat themselves. Something consumable - subscribers never run out! So many Launch Your Box members have wildly successful one-thing of the month subscriptions. Some of the “one things” their happy subscribers receive include: T-shirts Candles Pizzelles Nail polish Earrings Door hangers Washi tape Start brainstorming what you can turn into a one-thing of the month subscription and move one step closer to launching your subscription. How does a subscription that’s easier to manage and more profitable sound? Join me for this episode to learn more about why you should consider starting a one-thing of the month subscription.

    244: Ask Sarah: What’s the Most Costly Mistake New Subscription Box Owners Make?
    Feb 11 2026
    In today’s Ask Sarah episode of The Launch Your Box Podcast, I’m answering two powerful questions from Launch Your Box member Tabitha Dragonberry, the founder of Funberry Kids. And these are questions I know a lot of you are asking, too. Tabatha’s first question? “What is the biggest mistake new subscription box owners make?” It’s one I see all the time. And it’s one I made myself when I started. Trying to be for everybody. When you try to build a box that pleases everyone, you end up attracting no one. Your messaging gets muddy. Your products miss the mark. And instead of standing out, you blend in. Tabatha and I talked about: Why choosing a narrow niche leads to faster growth The specific ways a too-broad audience creates costly problems, especially with inventory How to make decisions faster and more confidently by knowing who your box is for Tabitha’s second question is just as important as the first. Maybe even more so. She asked: “What should a first year in business really look like?” And my honest answer? Probably not what Instagram is telling you. Your first year isn’t supposed to be your biggest year. It’s supposed to be the year where you learn how to be a business owner. Where you test things. Where you build systems. Where you figure out how to keep showing up, even when the numbers aren’t blowing you away. We talked about: The slow but meaningful signs of progress to look for in your first year Why it’s okay to have small numbers at the start How your mindset shapes your experience, especially in those early months Why success in year one looks more like momentum than massive revenue If you’re in your first year, or gearing up to start your subscription box, I hope this episode helps you stop putting pressure on yourself to get everything right, right away. Growth is possible. But first, you need a strong foundation. Join me for this episode where I clear up the confusion about what to expect in your first year of business and share how to avoid the most common misstep I see new subscription box owners make.

    243: Ask Sarah: How Do I Grow on Social Media With No Budget?
    Feb 4 2026
    In this week’s Ask Sarah episode of The Launch Your Box Podcast, I’m answering a question I hear all the time from subscription box owners who are doing the work - posting consistently, showing up - but still feel like no one’s seeing it. Staci asked: “How else can I get followers on Facebook and Instagram? I’m currently posting on my Facebook page but haven’t done any ads yet because of my budget. What else can I do to get followers for free?” If you’re growing on a tight budget (or no budget at all), this episode is for you. First, Let’s Normalize Where You Are I want you to know this upfront: if you’re showing up and posting but growth feels slow, you’re not doing anything wrong. Organic growth is slower, but it’s absolutely possible. And you are not alone in this stage. Why the Right Followers Matter More Than More Followers Before we talk tactics, I ground this conversation in something important:It’s not about big numbers. It’s about aligned followers. Those people who could actually become subscribers or customers. A small, engaged audience will always outperform a large, disconnected one. 5 Organic Ways to Grow (No Ads Required) 1. Start Conversations in Your ContentInstead of just showcasing your box, invite people to engage. Polls, this-or-that questions, and simple prompts work incredibly well. Example: “Would you rather get Product A or Product B in your next box?” Engagement helps your content get seen. And it’s free. 2. Show Up in Facebook Groups (Strategically)Join 2–3 groups where your ideal customer already hangs out. Don’t sell. Be helpful. When people see your value in comments, they naturally click through to learn more about you. 3. Share on Your Personal Profile (Gently)Your personal network already knows and trusts you so let them in on what you’re building. Share behind-the-scenes moments, your why, or sneak peeks, not just polished product posts. 4. Collaborate with Other Creators or Small BusinessesCollaboration is one of the fastest free growth strategies out there. Joint giveaways, co-hosted Lives, or simple cross-promotions introduce you to the right audience without spending a dollar. 5. Use Reels and Live Video (Keep It Simple)Both Facebook and Instagram prioritize video, especially Live video. Go LIVE while packing boxes, sharing a theme, or answering FAQs. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Bonus: you can repurpose Lives into reels, clips, and stories for extra mileage. You don’t need a huge audience to win. You need trust, consistency, and connection with the right people. Organic growth takes time, but when you stay visible and intentional, you’re building a foundation that lasts. Join me for this Ask Sarah episode where I break down exactly how to grow your audience organically, even with a limited budget and how to focus on growth that actually supports your business.
