One thing that comes up again and again, is how to launch products successfully.  \nEven if you’ve been in product management for sometime, it’s unlikely that you’ve worked on more than a handful of launches in a couple of companies. It makes it difficult to know what’s best practice and what you might be missing.  \nThis Journal focuses purely on the topic of launching. We want it to be a valuable reference for busy product people.  \nSomething to dip into and pull out useful tips. Something that broadens your experience and gives you relevant insights-something that will help make your product launch a success.  \nWho’s who?  \nThe Product Management Journal is published by Product Focus as an independent publication for product managers with technology-based products. Product Focus was founded and is run by Ian Lunn (top) and Andrew Dickenson.  \nThe founders continue to deliver many of Product Focus’training courses and reviews alongside their team of senior consultants.  \nTo get all our previous journals, and receive the latest copy, sign-up at [www.productfocus.com](www.productfocus.com)  \nAll the trademarks and tradenames referenced in the Journal are the property of their respective companies  \nProduct Management Journal Volume 1 3  \nTHE BASICS  \nGoH-oo-mto keep yorlaehtrack  \n“If you think the launch plan is just a list of marketing collateral and a date when you will issue a press release or show the newborn product at an exhibition, think again. The launch plan should touch every single aspect of the‘whole product customer experience,'where‘whole’ and‘customer’should be considered in the broadest way possible.”  \nEddy Vermeulen, Product Manager, NeoBasics  \nBattles tend to be lost thanks to a series of minor setbacks, not because of one major failure. Much the same is true of product launches, which demand the alignment of many internal departments, suppliers, and target customers. Each one hasto be engaged, primed to understand their role, and interested in the success of the launch. They must each have some‘skin’ in the game. A successful launch takes planning, committed resources, and dedicated effort.  \nGo-to-market vs. launch  \nThe Go-to-market stage isabout making sure the product and company are ready to sell. It's one of the steps in the Product Management Lifecycle (Fig. 1). It includes validating the product/market fit (e.g., by running trials), finalizing the proposition, and preparing for launch.
