When to use a milestone chart

  • New project

    Only the key dates of a project, like the day the proofs come back and launch day.

  • A deadline

    Each diamond is a date that must not slip, lined up so you can see the gaps between them.

  • Explaining

    Good for showing a boss or a client the plan without every small task.
