do you need an audience to win in Product hunt?

Lately, I've seen a lot of discussion on X about why you should have an audience to become a top 3 product in PH.
While I think this could be true, there is also the option that the audience doesn't resonate with the product, and you don't get that many upvotes
What is your experience? what have you seen?

I think so. Or have a good marketing team.
But I think there's less utility if your audience and your ideal customer don't really overlap. Sure, you'll get upvotes, but will you get customers?

A solid differentiator is better than a community. If you have it, you can leverage that and get a good hunter for instance. There are no absolutes on PH

even if contenders have better products.

Having an engaged audience can definitely give you a head start, Borja, but don't underestimate the power of Product Hunt's community to spot and elevate great products. Focus on presenting your product's value clearly, and the audience will follow!

Hi Borja, In my experience, having an audience can definitely give you a boost on Product Hunt, but it's not the sole determinant of success. While having an engaged audience can help generate initial traction and upvotes, ultimately, the quality and relevance of your product play a significant role.
You will always need an audience to get you to the top.

An audience that doesn't support you is not really helpful
