I’m curious to know how helpful Product Hunt was for you during your launch. Specifically, how many paid users did you acquire, and have they turned into repeat customers?

We launched HeyForm 3.0 on October 15th and managed to get PoD & PoW. https://www.producthunt.com/prod... Our stats: - 740 signups - 17 free trials - 11 paid customers

@luobaishun 740 signups is an impressive number, but only 11 paid customers out of those raises some questions. Is your product addressing a real problem that users are willing to pay for? It might be worth analyzing the conversion funnel or gathering feedback from users who didn’t convert. Also, did you invest in promotion or marketing for this launch? Depending on that, the results could either be a good start or a point for improvement. What’s your take on it?

Nice results! We got featured as well last month and saw about 1,200 signups, 28 free trials, and 15 new paid customers. I think the key is having an attractive PH thumbnail image and description that really sells your unique value prop. Curious what others have seen in terms of conversion rates from PH traffic!

Congrats on the launch and solid stats! 740 signups and 11 paid customers from a PH launch is impressive. Did you do any additional promotion beyond PH? I'd be curious what other channels performed well for driving signups and trials. Also, what was your conversion rate from signups to trials? 17 trials from 740 signups is around 2.3% which seems a bit low. I wonder if there are ways to optimize the signup flow or pricing/packaging to boost that. But overall those are great results, especially the 11 paid conversions - that's the most important metric in my book! Well done.
