Plan the announcement before launch day.

A launch announcement works best when communications planning begins before the product goes live. Start with a clear statement of what will be available and to whom.

Create one source of truth Keep approved descriptions, product links, spokesperson details, and image permissions together. Assign a person to verify every factual claim.

Allow time for review Separate your preferred announcement date from publisher commitments. Leave room for questions, revisions, and final approvals. Avoid scheduling a campaign around assumptions about guaranteed coverage.

Prepare the next step Decide where interested readers should go after reading the announcement. Make sure that page works on mobile, explains the product clearly, and does not contradict the release.
