Launching soon!
Before launching your own product, invest time in researching and understanding the Product Hunt community. Connect and engage with other users and makers on Product Hunt. Share your success and
learnings - keep the momentum going!

Starting with a survey of customers who might actually be interested in the product, followed by an outreach and assessing their interest.
Launching soon!
@santosh_bagalkot1 Great idea. How did you get people to fill the survey out?
@jd_worcester Your upcoming launch seems very interesting! Could you provide me with more information about it? I wanted to support you anyway with a notification!
I'm also launching soon. It would be very interesting if you could give me your feedback about it and support us as well.
Iām still in the beginning stages of trying to build a community on here but Iām finding it really rewarding interacting with peopleās products and giving feedback. There are so many people on here building such amazing products!
Launching soon!

@sam_tan7 @jd_worcester could you please ask to be notified for our launch - https://www.producthunt.com/prod...
Your feedback would be much appreciated :)
Launching soon!
Being helpful and answering questions. Participating in discussions
@sophiasolanki It would be of great value for the launch of our project to receive feedback and support, with a follow to increase the chances of success for our platform. I really love Narrato; I've already followed. If there's anything more I can do to help, I'm here.
Launching soon!
@matteo_magliozzi Happy to help. Perhaps touch base with Tanya if you haven't already - she'd be happy to share our experience with PH launch
@sophiasolanki @matteo_magliozzi hey Matteo I saw your website. It looks nice. Shockwave great name. There is a spelling error on page "How it works' re Unveilig is missing the "n". Your product looks really interesting and for what it's worth I don't think you need to give 80% discount. Something like 50% should be enough? Just some thoughts, Hope it goes well !
@sophiasolanki hi Sophia I like the sound of narrato and had a look at your website. It flows well. I have a small question. What do you mean by "Plagiarism credit" in the business plan? As a new reader I would have guessed it means "Reference Credit" or something like that? But I was unsure. Just some initial feedback to help.
@sophiasolanki @paul_nelson5 Thank you for the compliments. We tried with an 80% incentive to encourage users to join, but we still only had one conversion. I can't understand the error on the website. Is "Unveiling" spelled without an 'n' on the site?
To build a community on Product Hunt:
Comment on other posts.
Share helpful ideas.
Post good stuff regularly.
Team up with others.
Join events like AMAs.
1. Interact with the upvoters of a recent product launch in the same category.
2. Follow relevant people and groups
3. Build deeper connections with them via LinkedIn
@anushkakarmakar or interact with people who is launching soon as well š
Launching soon!
@anushkakarmakar @gionata_capasso This is actually genius. I hope your upcoming launch goes well!
Launching soon!
@anushkakarmakar Great advice! How can I support your upcoming launch?
Consistently engaging with the community by sharing valuable content, participating in discussions, and creating your own products can be helpful in building a network on Product Hunt.
@kuldeep_gupta7 I'm trying my best to provide value through the feedback I give to people. I recently discovered this community and the power it can give to a product you want to launch, not only in terms of visibility but also in finding interested people who can give you tips or constructive criticism to improve the product.
We have the launch of our product coming soon, and it could be a turning point in our lives. Part of it depends on how many people are interested in the project here on Product Hunt. I invite you to check it out and let me know what you think. If you like the work we've done, a follow would be greatly appreciated.
Launching soon!
@matteo_magliozzi I've asked to be notified! Shockwave sounds interesting!! All the best for the launch :)
Active engagement, valuable feedback, and consistent sharing are key to building a community on Product Hunt.
@hayden_foster I think this is the exact explanation of what I'm trying to do here. We are launching a platform soon to revolutionize social media marketing. It would be of great importance to me if you would be willing to give feedback on the project and a follow if you find it interesting.
Engagement ā showing as much as possible, giving feedback and a review products, building communities also on other social media. Ask a few people to try the product so they can leave you comment under the launch sooner than others because they have had previous experience :)
Launching soon!
@busmark_w_nika Oh that's a fantastic idea! A lot of people think about getting existing customers onto PH, but to get PH supporters to try your product before hand so they can leave better comments is genius!
I think that honest and genuine participation is what really helps you build a community. Starting discussions, supporting others' launches, and responding to discussions. All great ways to meet and expand your network.
@meredith_lancaster Agreed Meredith, great take. Speaking of which, notified for your launch - im curious what types of companies is your ideal customer for this product, and have you seen any concerns of teams which may not want to share their internal data to tools like GPT/stable diffusion?
@yukioyama thanks for the support! We have seen success and adoption from organizations who are looking to make the complex simple and want one solution for their team as they strive for organization-wide AI adoption.
We have heard all of the questions around data security and created this to help answer those questions: https://boodlebox.ai/security-pr.... Long story short, though, we anonymize all prompts and documents provided to our system before they are ever sent to the underlying AI models. Additionally, we only share the relevant information from documents necessary to get to a solution - again, by anonymizing prior to it ever leaving our secured platform.
Launching soon!
@meredith_lancaster Couldn't agree more! It's so obvious when 4 bots comment the same thing in a row haha
My go-to strategy involves actively engaging with other makers by providing valuable feedback and insights on their projects, and consistently sharing updates about my own journey. This not only fosters a sense of community but also helps in building meaningful connections that are beneficial in the long run.
Mainly engaging and meeting people, have hopped on a few calls and met some really awesome people! But what you all are doing at Narrato is awesome, tons of volume on your end and it's inspiring to see!
Launching soon!
Find other interested product marketers/hunters and strike a conversation - whether it's asking questions, help, tips, ideas - anything.
I take an interest in others' products and strive to provide the highest level of feedback based on my expertise in the field. The power of being part of a community, in my opinion, lies in reaching people who can provide value with their advice or critiques.
Moreover, being part of a community means helping others in any way possible, with the idea that doing good will eventually come back to you. For all the launching soon projects that need my support, don't hesitate to reply!
