Interested to see how much of a sales kick folks have seen from their recent launches?!

PH was great for initial traction. While the sales spike wasn’t massive, we gained valuable feedback and interest that later converted into sales as we improved the product

@cassidy_doyle so more of a launch / test / amend / intterate strategy for your team?
Launching soon!
The release and sales growth are not closely related; it actually depends on the product's competitiveness and practical value

@bensongao did you found that your website traffic jumped at a minimum?
Our Product Hunt launch has led to a noticeable increase in sales. It’s been a great way to gain traction and attract new user.
Launching soon!
@ludovica_eleazer do you have a rough % from launch week?
It's amazing how a bit of visibility can lead to more customers discovering our product.
Launching on Product Hunt really gave our sales a push. It's been great to see more interest and hear positive feedback from the community.
Launching soon!
@dashik_boeloepnaandong_amos totally - do you have a rough % that increased from your launch?
Well, ProductHunt helped us get a good initial boost in traffic and signups. We saw a 4x spike in web visits and over 100 signups on launch day alone. While things have calmed down some since then, there's been a nice sustained bump in sales from the added exposure and SEO juice. Plus some great customer feedback and ideas. Overall well worth doing the PH launch! We'll keep working it to maximize the momentum.
Launching soon!
@christopherdavidanderson love to see some metrics! Do you have a Freemium / trial model where folks can sign up for free? Any idea what the retention looked like from those 100 signups?
Didn't directly think of the SEO pop but that is an interesting thing to think about too!
Once again there are tons of bots in the discussion.
Launching soon!
in direct sales I didn’t see a huge bump , but the exposure led to partnerships and collaboration offers that boosted revenue long term
Launching soon!
@sadie_howard love that - we're you seen by folks engaged in the PH community or like a VC / strategic partner that just saw it by happenstance?
Our launch helped establish credibility. Even though sales didn’t skyrocket, being on PH gave us trust with new customers, which improved conversion rates in the weeks follwing
The launch definitely brought more visibility. I saw a nice increase in inquiries right after going live, which is always encouraging!
Launching soon!
@scott__todd no big jump in sales?
I experienced a noticeable boost in sales post-launch. The platform seems to attract users who are genuinely interested in new products.
The feedback I received during the launch was invaluable. It not only boosted my confidence but also led to more sales inquiries!
Our Product Hunt launch gave us a big visibility boost. We saw a 30% increase in sales during the launch week alone! The key was engaging with the community before, during, and after the launch.
Launching soon!
@carloscruz that makes a ton of sense - did you promote your PH launch outside of PH (FB / X / LinkedIn?)
For us, the launch didn’t lead to immediate sales, but it helped build brand awareness. We’ve noticed an increase in website traffic and sign ups, which led to more conversion over time.
My sales doubled after the PH launch! It really helped us reach a broader audience, especially since many early adopters love testing new tools on product hunt
