DR 57. Last weekend at $14.99.

Hey,

LaunchIt just hit DR 57. It was 53 yesterday and 26 at the start of August.

It's skyrocketing, and that means the backlink you get from a premium launch is now genuinely high class.

So here's the deal this weekend:

Premium stays at $14.99 until Monday. From Monday it goes to $19.99.

And if you take premium, you also get a free submission to DirPilot on top.

Everyone who already launched keeps benefiting from every point the DR climbs, without doing anything. That's the whole model.

If you haven't submitted yet, this weekend is the moment.

Best,
Brian
