Frequently asked

Launches, in plain terms.

How far ahead should we plan a launch?

Eight to twelve weeks for anything with media involvement.

Do journalists still attend launches?

For genuine news, yes. For product refreshes, increasingly not, and a briefing works better.

What makes a launch fail?

No news in it. Production quality cannot compensate for the absence of a story.

Press mechanics in the run of show

Where the photograph happens, when the announcement lands, who is available for interviews and when. Decided before the venue, not after.

Curate the room

For most launches forty right people beats four hundred. Guest curation is the highest-leverage decision and the most commonly delegated.

Capture for the year, not the night

One launch properly filmed and photographed supplies content for two quarters.
