About this skill

About Launch week plan

Product launches often get one post on launch day and then silence. This skill plans a full launch week: pre-launch, launch day and five follow-up days, with the main launch post and variants for each channel, communities and people to tell with a personal message template, daily metrics and debrief questions. It follows each community's self-promotion rules and rejects fake upvotes or reviews, which can get a launch removed and damage your reputation. To use it, paste the skill into your assistant and send what you're launching, your audience, your channels and your existing audience size; the reply is laid out as “Day-by-day plan”, “Launch post + variants” and “Outreach template”.
