The Product CEO Operating System

A practical decision-support system for women leading physical product development.

The Product CEO Operating System is designed to help you lead product development with clarity, structure, and confidence, without carrying every decision in your head.

It gives you a place for the decisions that matter most:

  • Cost boundaries
  • Budget limits
  • Timelines and priorities

So you can guide suppliers, partners, and your team with calm authority instead of reacting to issues as they arise.

What this Operating System is

This is not a course.
And it’s not theory.

The Product CEO Operating System is a small set of Excel-based tools that help you externalise your product decisions and turn them into clear numbers, budgets, and timelines you can actually work with.

These are the same tools I’ve used for over 20 years to manage complex, international product development projects and multi-million-euro portfolios at global brands like Bosch and Philips, adapted for founders who want professional structure without corporate complexity.

 
Inside the Product CEO Operating System

You’ll receive three core tools that work together as one decision-support system:

1. Product Cost & Margin Calculator
Protect your margins before development starts.
This tool helps you calculate the true cost of your product — including production, packaging, certifications, logistics, and often-missed expenses.

So you can:

  • Understand your full cost structure
  • See gross and net margin scenarios
  • Make pricing decisions with confidence
  • Enter supplier conversations informed and prepared

This is the foundation for profitable product decisions.

2. Product Development Budget Planner
Know your real investment, and avoid costly surprises.

Most founders underestimate their development budget because costs are spread across too many categories.

This planner helps you map:

  • Development and engineering costs
  • Testing and certifications
  • Packaging and tooling
  • Logistics and launch preparation
  • Contingencies and product-specific risks

You’ll gain a clear, realistic overview of what it actually takes to develop and launch your product, and where financial risks may arise.

3. Product Development Timeline Planner
Lead your project with a calm, realistic roadmap.

This planning tool gives you a clear, high-level view of your entire development journey, from concept to manufacturing handover.

You’ll be able to:

  • Build a realistic timeline
  • Spot delays early
  • Align suppliers and partners
  • Coordinate development, production, and launch activities
  • Communicate expectations clearly

This is the tool that brings predictability to your process and confidence to your leadership.

What this gives you as a Product CEO
With the Product CEO Operating System, you’ll have:

  • Clear cost structures that protect your margins
  • A complete budget that supports better financial decisions
  • A realistic timeline your team and suppliers can follow

No chaos. No constant firefighting.
Just clarity, structure, and confident execution.
