Ah, the pre-launch checklist. It's like the pre-flight safety demonstration on an airplane. You get it—you know you have to do it, but you're not looking forward to it. But once your product is launched? That's where the real fun begins and where the real work needs to be done! We've got a checklist for that too. We've been through this process more times than we can count at this point, and we've seen what works and what doesn't when it comes to getting your product from launch to success.

The first checklist is all about gathering information to help you understand your customer better and ensure that your launch goes as smoothly as possible. It includes things like: Preparing the store for the launch Preparing and uploading your brand assets (logo, branding, and layout)  Preparing promotional materials (e-mail marketing, blog content, etc.)  Creating a plan to distribute promotional materials to influencers and the press  Make sure you've done all of these things before you're ready
