5 things I learned in the run up to our PH launch 🚀

1. The community is incredibly positive and if you participate in discussions and share your feedback, you will be rewarded with the same support when you launch. 2. It helps to have a great Product Hunt mentor. Chris Messina hunted us and offered us invaluable guidance in the run up to our launch. It was so helpful to have an external perspective. 3. Invest time in creating a clear demo video. You want the community to understand who you are, what you do and why you do it immediately. We were thrilled to see comments on the clarity of our demo video. 4. Get organised and identify people who are qualified to support your launch. Let them know when you are going to launch so they’re ready to jump in and show you some support in those early hours. 5. Enjoy it! We’ve got just a few hours left of our launch but it has been such a great experience. Watching your team, users and community pull together to make it a success is really exciting. Good luck if you're about to launch and if you just did, what did you learn?
