Fellow makers, what is the most challenging thing you expect or experienced in the launch day?

Question

For me, it is how to pitch friends properly.

We just launched Vozo AI today. To share my mixed feelings, I made a video meme: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/lU9pzZGf4_0

CY Zhou · Answer

@yc_j right? I feel sorry to bother many friends and community friends today. Do you make videos? Did you ever use Product Hunt? etc.

Haha, that’s exactly it! The video is spot-on for the occasion.

Answer

For me, the most challenging part was making sure everything worked smoothly and dealing with any last-minute issues. Pitching to friends can be tough too—it's all about finding the right balance between enthusiasm and not coming off as pushy.

Navigating pitch-perfect friend pitches on launch day can be trickier than debugging in the wee hours - but hey, we're all in this startup rollercoaster together, right?
