How to build a Product Release Checklist

In review other examples of Product Release Checklists, then I thought that they were too specific for the product / release in mind.

So, as a Product Manager / Product Marketing Manager, you have to build you own.

Here's my technique for building your own Product Release Checklist:

1. Determine impact on all stakeholders
2. What documents will inform stakeholders of the impact?
3. Build a Library of Reference Materials
4. Build an Issues List
5. Iterate!
6. Communicate regularly
7. Don't forget to celebrate!
