Get concrete ideas, a practical product launch checklist and smart tools to manage guests and contributions.
Step‑by‑Step Product Launch Planning Guide
- Define the concept, objectives, date and guest list — Clarify the goal of your new product reveal: press coverage, partner education, internal celebration, direct sales, or a mix. Decide on format (standing cocktail, seated presentation, demo stations), date, time and whether it’s in‑person, hybrid or fully online. Outline your target guests (media, clients, distributors, internal teams) and expected headcount, then create the event in Fiestukis so you can centralize details, invitations and shared contributions from colleagues or partners.
- Choose venue, setup and technical requirements — Select a venue that fits your brand and the size of your new product reveal: office showroom, hotel conference room, coworking space or a stylish bar with AV capabilities. Check essentials: stage or presentation area, screen, projector or LED wall, sound system, microphones, reliable Wi‑Fi and power outlets for demos. Add venue details, parking info and any technical needs into your Fiestukis event page so your team and suppliers are aligned.
- Design the program and product presentation flow — Create a clear timeline: welcome and networking, keynote or product story, live demo, Q&A, and closing or networking drinks. Decide who will speak, who will run the demo, and whether you’ll include testimonials, a short video or a live user case. Share the program draft in Fiestukis so speakers, marketing and sales can review, comment and confirm their roles in one place.
- Plan catering, decor and brand experience — Choose catering that matches the tone of your product launch party: coffee break and pastries for a morning reveal, finger food and drinks for an evening event, or branded snacks at demo stations. Keep decor on‑brand with colors, banners, roll‑ups, product displays and clear signage to the demo areas. Use Fiestukis’ “bring something” list to coordinate who handles catering, branded materials, swag, badges and last‑minute supplies so nothing is forgotten.
- Send product launch invitations and manage RSVPs — Create a concise, attractive product launch invitation that highlights the value for attendees: exclusive first look, networking, press kit, special offer or limited seats. Send invitations directly from your Fiestukis event page or share the link via email and social channels, and include dress code, parking, access instructions and whether guests can bring a plus‑one. Track RSVPs in Fiestukis, send reminders and adjust catering and seating based on confirmed attendance.
- Prepare the big day and follow‑up — Before the event, run a technical rehearsal: test slides, videos, microphones, live demo and internet connection, and confirm arrival times with speakers and suppliers. Use your Fiestukis checklist to assign who welcomes guests, who manages registration, who supports demos and who captures photos or video. After the new product reveal, export your attendee list from Fiestukis to send thank‑you emails, share materials, collect feedback and nurture leads.
Complete Guide to Organizing a New Product Reveal
A strong new product reveal should combine clear information with a memorable experience. At minimum, plan for:
- A short welcome and brand introduction
- A focused product story (problem, solution, benefits)
- A live demo or hands‑on experience
- Time for Q&A and networking
- Easy access to materials: brochure, spec sheet, pricing, next steps
Use Fiestukis to structure your agenda, assign owners for each segment and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
For an in‑person new product reveal, send your product launch invitation 3–4 weeks in advance for clients and partners, and at least 2 weeks for internal launches. For press or VIP guests, earlier is better so they can reserve the date.
With Fiestukis you can create the event page early, share a “save the date” link, and then update details (agenda, speakers, parking info) without having to resend everything manually.
Break your product launch checklist into clear categories, for example:
- Strategy: objectives, target audience, key message
- Logistics: venue, AV, seating, signage
- Content: presentations, demo scripts, videos, press kit
- Guests: invitations, RSVPs, badges, reception
- Experience: catering, decor, swag, music
- Follow‑up: thank‑you emails, materials, feedback, sales actions
In Fiestukis you can turn this into a shared checklist and “bring something” list so the team clearly sees who handles what and by when.
For most product launch parties, easy‑to‑eat options work best so guests can network and try demos without juggling plates. Think:
- Finger food and canapés (mini sandwiches, skewers, small bowls)
- Non‑messy snacks near demo areas
- Coffee, tea, water and soft drinks as a base
- Wine, beer or cocktails if appropriate for your audience and venue
Use Fiestukis to coordinate who orders catering, who brings extra drinks or snacks, and to capture dietary restrictions from guests.
Centralizing everything in one place is key. With Fiestukis you can:
- Create a branded event page with all details
- Send invitations or share the link with your contact lists
- Track RSVPs in real time and see who is confirmed
- Collect notes like company, role and dietary needs
- Export the list afterwards for follow‑up and reporting
This saves time compared to scattered email replies and spreadsheets.
After your new product reveal, act quickly while interest is high. Within a few days:
- Send thank‑you emails with key materials (slides, brochure, recording)
- Share any special offers or next‑step options (demo booking, trial, meeting)
- Ask for feedback on the event and the product itself
- Pass warm leads to sales with clear notes
Your attendee list and notes from Fiestukis make this follow‑up structured and easy to execute.
