Start a new notebook for your new product and in that note ask yourself these questions: What is your product? Who is it for? When is it launching? If it's an event, where is it happening? How long will the event be or will the program be live? From there, look at your calendar and say "when could this go on sale?". After you do that, work backwards to today's date. Be sure to buffer in the time you need to create your product, market it and then put those dates on the calendar.
