# eCommerce Launch Mega Checklist

We've tried to bring all these steps and actions points together into one big (huge) *launch checklist* that you can use whether you're launching a totally new business, a new brand or even just a new site for an existing business. Of course, depending on which of these apply to you, you may already have a lot of this in place - in which case just tick it off an move on.

This list is always going to be incomplete, so if there's something glaringly missing please let us know and we'll add it. It's a living document, so we'll leave a note here of when it was last updated.

This list is **not specific to Pakk**, so can be used as a reference for launching on any platform. However, it's worth noting two things:

1. This list is somewhat opinionated (a bit like Pakk). We have our approach to e-commerce and a lot of that is codified in this list. Feel free to ignore any of it if you feel it's wrong.
2. Pakk specific implementation details appear *in italics after each point*.

> Suggestion: Print this list off and tick off the tasks once they're complete
