Answer

There is nothing wrong with saying "the" twice.  In general, it is good (but not necessary) to avoid using the same word twice in a sentence. However, for this purpose I would not count "the" as a word.

None of these eight sentences is wrong. A context could be invented for each one but #1 and #5 are the safest. It would take some skill to invent contexts for #2, 3, 4, 6, 7, or 8, but it is possible.

Answer

It’s okay to use “the” twice. But it doesn’t sound as free-flowing and consistent. What you could do is switch the position and add “ ‘s “.

Example:

I will let you know the product’s schedule.

I will let you know the product’s ETS.

Hope this helped!
