# The product manager week

URL: https://gocutline.com/templates/product-manager-week/

A weekly schedule for product managers: focus time for specs and thinking from 09:00, meetings from 13:00, a customer call every Wednesday and a review on Friday.

## Why it works
- **Meetings in one half of the day.** Your team learns when to find you.
- **A weekly customer call** keeps opinions honest.
- **Writing in the morning** is how decisions get made.

## Make it yours
- Your team spans time zones? Move the meeting half, and keep the split.
- Before a launch, swap the focus time for the launch work and keep the customer call.

## Questions

**How do product managers find time to think?**
They block it before the week fills up. Mornings are easiest, since most meetings can move.
