Future Press Release Recap

Writing a future press release or review about your product is a great way to get everyone on the team aligned on the outcomes you are trying to achieve. They also can be fun to write. The main difference between a press release and a review is that a press release is being told from your point of view while a review would be written from the perspective of a third party.

When you’re writing a press release or review it will be important to include the following components

  • Name of the product (although this doesn’t have to be final and can change)
  • Who is the target user?
  • What problem does your product solve?
  • How does your product solve this problem?
  • Why your team built this
  • Why should users care?
  • How do users react to your product?
  • What sets this product apart from others?
  • How can users get the product
