Actionable product launch lists to guide through the process

Product Launch Checklist: A step-by-step guide to preparing and launching products in the 21st Century, by Dominic Frúges, delivers what the title promises. Frúges brings a lifetime of experience to actionable product launch lists to guide people through the process. The first couple of chapters provide  background and credentials that reveal the depth of knowledge and real life experience this book offers. Subsequent chapters provide detailed bulleted checklists written in a tech-manual style offering clear direction with no unnecessary fluff.


Along with the original project launch checklist, following chapters delve deeper with complementary lists designed to help accomplish the objectives of the project launch list. For instance, the chapter on the Product Launch Agreement offers the necessary steps to put together the agreement, and following “The New Marketing” chapter are chapters on digital marketing, target audience, key marketing points, market research, and more, each with their unique checklist.
The index and layout of the book make it easy to find the topic you’re looking for and distills the information you need into an ordered list of what to do, often with notes as to why, along with helpful resources to expand your knowledge or help accomplish the goal. While the author concludes by saying the book “will never be an all-inclusive lists of steps that launch a product, because of changes in process, technology, and project management,” it is so well organized and comprehensive that it is a relevant resource to keep handy.


I award this book 5 stars. It is easy to navigate and provides a plethora of pertinent information. I recommend Product Launch Check List to anyone with a product launch on the horizon for business or even as a product entrepreneur. In fact, as a writer with another book due out early next year, I found helpful ideas to use for a book launch.
