No hacks. Just hard work.
1. No tips will save you if you don't have a good product, clear website, and simple onboarding.
2. You can't ask for upvotes, mass message users, or DM strangers on messengers (WhatsUp, Telegram). The PH team removes fake upvotes, and you might get disqualified completely
3. Prepare all PH assets for your launch.
4. Be active on PH (support others, create discussions, comment on others' discussions).
5. Create your Coming Soon page. Share it on PH, Twitter, LinkedIn.
6. Be active on social media. Post about your PH launch.
7. Connect with people from PH on LinkedIn/Twitter.
8. Clean your launch day and the day after that.
9. Check your website, analytics, and the onboarding process.
10. Check your welcome email sequence.
11. Engage in real-time.
12. Make sure you can reach out to people who can support your product throughout the 24-hour launch day.
13. DM people on your launch day with a reminder.
14. Join relevant groups and chats. Support people there.
15. Track your progress with tools like Hunted space.
16. Prepare social media posts, announcements for communities, emails.
17. If you have a team, assign responsibilities.
18. If you have investors/current customers or work with influencers, send them a reminder before and on your launch day
19. Ask happy users and customers about reviews.
20. Analyze your results, share updates, and say Thank you.
And be a good person :) Don't use this platform too transactional or spammy.

good stuff. absolutely bang-on points!
Congratulations, Thank you for sharing the great tips! 🔥
I’m very new to PH, but I already can see fake comments and upvotes from people, just because they were asked to vote.
So I'm finding your subject here very helpful. And congrats!)
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing. We're launching here soon and feeling a bit nervous 😁
Being active on PH sounds like a good strategy. How do you manage to stay engaged and support others while working on your own launch?
