Untangle

Launch deadline is in 2 weeks but design isn't final. Can't write marketing copy without knowing final features. Team needs a roadmap but I don't have clarity on priorities. Budget approval is pending which blocks hiring. The competitor launched yesterday which changes our positioning. User testing revealed issues but do we have time to fix them? Sarah wants to add a new feature but that delays everything. Need to update stakeholders but not sure what to tell them.

Title: Product Launch Blockers & Priorities

Summary:
Two weeks until launch but several blockers: design not final (blocking marketing copy), budget approval pending (blocking hiring), competitor launched yesterday changing positioning, and user testing issues need decisions. Sarah wants to add features but that would delay launch. Stakeholder update needed but unclear what to communicate.

Key Points:
- Design finalization is blocking marketing copy and feature list
- Budget approval needed for hiring
- User testing revealed issues requiring triage
- Competitor launch impacts positioning strategy
- New feature request from Sarah conflicts with timeline

Tasks:
[ ] Finalize design decisions this week
[ ] Decide on user testing fixes - ship now or defer
[ ] Follow up on budget approval status
[ ] Analyze competitor launch impact on positioning
[ ] Tell Sarah new features must wait for post-launch
[ ] Draft stakeholder update after design is locked
