Launch checklist

The video is only useful if the launch is ready for it.

Before publishing, the team should know where the video goes, which cutdowns exist, who owns approvals, and what the next buyer action should be on every placement.

Placement Homepage hero, landing page, sales follow-up, onboarding, investor deck, and channel-specific placements should be chosen early.
Formats The main explainer, short cutdowns, captions, thumbnails, and vertical edits should be scoped before export.
Ownership Approvals, launch date, publishing owner, and post-launch measurement should be assigned before the file arrives.

Homepage

  • Choose the exact page placement above or near the fold
  • Align headline, CTA, and supporting copy with the video story
  • Confirm thumbnail, poster frame, and autoplay strategy
  • Make sure mobile layout and loading behavior are acceptable

Sales

  • Decide where the video appears in follow-up emails or proposals
  • Prepare a short send-with copy block for the sales team
  • Match the CTA to demo, quote, audit, or next call
  • Give reps one sentence on when to use the asset

Campaign

  • List the cutdowns needed for paid social or organic posts
  • Confirm vertical, square, and landscape priorities
  • Prepare captions, hooks, and thumbnail text if needed
  • Set the launch sequence instead of posting everything at once

Operations

  • Name the publishing owner and final approver
  • Confirm the live date and where files will be stored
  • Track the main success signal after launch
  • Queue any follow-up edits based on real usage feedback
