Product, website, and brand launches can be stressful.

Luckily, Sprout Social has you covered with a seven-step product launch checklist that helps you make your next product launch as smooth as possible through social media.

Your seven-step product launch checklist:

1. Define your audience: Research this by making personas or investing in social listening tools.
2. Position your product: What makes your product stand out? That will be your selling point. So you’ll need to do some competitor research, too.
3. Set your launch goals: Know what KPIs you need to quantify the type of success you want.
4. Time your launch: Knowing your audience also means knowing when they are most likely to be reached by your organic media.
5. Prepare for customer support: New things = new questions. Manage potential inquiries by making FAQ content or using chatbots for fast responses.
6. Schedule your content: Don’t leave your strategizing at pre-launch. Plan your post-launch content ahead of time with it.
7. Analyze your product launch: After you’ve set your goals, track your progress towards them. Where can you adjust your post-launch strategy?
