The job to be done

Turn scattered updates into a reviewable picture.

A launch meeting should focus on decisions. Use the board to bring the work, evidence, and unresolved gaps into one view before the meeting.

01

Assign the commercial work

Start with buyer insight, positioning, approved-claims ownership, rep training, pricing handoff, availability, and other starter rows. Add owners and dates.

02

Back up a completed row

Choose a status. A Done row needs an evidence name or authorized link; an N/A row needs a reason. The gate flags missing entries.

03

Bring gaps to the decision

Review critical open work, identify the next action, and record the meeting outcome and conditions on the separate decision record.

What does “HOLD” actually mean?

In the fictional Northstar example, the pricing handoff has evidence, but rep training, the value story, inventory timing, and the review meeting still need work. The summary shows four critical rows open.

The workbook checks whether the record is complete. Your organization’s authorized reviewers decide what to do.

Next conversation: Who owns the remaining four critical items, what evidence is needed, and when will the team reconvene?
Illustrative fiction. This is a business workflow example, not a device or regulatory assessment.

Questions before buying

Clear scope, fewer surprises.

Do I need desktop Excel?

It is the intended format. Other spreadsheet apps may import the file, but their formula and dropdown behavior has not been verified.

Can my team use it across launches?

Yes. One purchasing organization can duplicate and adapt the board for its internal launches. Public redistribution or resale of the template is not included.

Does it approve our launch or cover compliance?

No. It coordinates commercial work and record completeness. Your authorized teams determine clinical, quality, regulatory, legal, and final launch requirements in approved systems.

What support comes with it?

Download/setup issues receive a response within three business days. A reproducible formula defect reported within 30 days receives one corrected file. Custom launch planning is not included. The storefront’s policies and applicable rights govern refunds.

Does the workbook send data anywhere?

No macros or external connections are included. It is an editable local Excel file; you choose where to store it and whether to add links. Keep sensitive material in your organization’s authorized systems.
