Decision framework

Test six readiness gates before committing to a launch.

Use PONGO's published checklist to document the evidence and owner for demand, localization, compliance, channels, operations and measurement.

Several operating problems begin at once.

You must understand unfamiliar consumers and platforms while solving local setup, payments, product requirements, logistics, stores, channels and demand creation. Separate vendors slow the work and weaken accountability.
