What's your key advice for a successful product launch on Product Hunt?

DM @rrhoover hover on his new retro futuristic transparent Motorola pager. 911 We are launching 😬

We launched last week our AI voice bank https://www.producthunt.com/post.... Few lessons locked: Don't rely much on Facebook groups/communities. Other product/startup founders helped us the most to mobilize audience. Also, few Product telegram channels were helpful. Ask one person to be responsible for all comments and reply them all as you probably won't have time for that.

Be prepared, create buzz, and connect with your audience. Good luck on Monday, Clustr will be the #1 Product of the Month for sure!

To maximize your chances of a successful product launch on Product Hunt, consider these - Prepare a compelling product - Build anticipation - Craft an engaging and concise Product Hunt post - Timing is important - Leverage your network - Engage with the PH community - Create an eye-catching video PH is a community-driven platform, and building genuine connections and providing value to the community is essential for long-term success.

Build an army of supporters ahead of time to get that momentum going!

I launched a few days ago and I found being engaged with the discussion to be beneficial

My advice is: 1- To be active on PH 2- Support others before your launch so they'll support you 3- Engage with the community 4- Make connections with others 5- On launch day spread the words in different communities like Telegram, WhatsApp and Reddit 6- Be active be responsive and respond to every comment on launch day 7- Most important don't create new profiles to support yourself it will be consider as spam activity.

Start preparing for the launch early, and don't try to prepare for the week.

My advice for everyone would be to follow @realvladgolub and be as active as he is, I'm pretty sure Clustr will be on fire on Monday!

I saw a similar post yesterday and wrote down the following tips. I do think these tips are applicable on this thread as well: 1. Prepare a compelling pitch: Craft a clear and concise description of your product that highlights its unique features, benefits, and value proposition. Capture the attention of PH users by emphasizing what makes your product stand out from the competition. 2. Build anticipation: Create buzz and generate excitement before your launch by promoting it on your social media channels, website, and email newsletters. Tease some key features or benefits of your product to build anticipation and attract potential users and supporters. 3. Engage with the PH community: Participate actively in the Product Hunt community by commenting on relevant posts, providing feedback, and offering value to other users. Engage in discussions, answer questions, and showcase your expertise. Building relationships and gaining visibility within the community can greatly enhance the success of your PH launch.

Key advice for a successful Product Hunt launch: Prepare an engaging and concise product description, create eye-catching visuals, engage with the community through comments and updates, and leverage your network to generate initial traction and support.

To ensure a successful product launch on Product Hunt, my key advice would be to focus on three essential aspects: 1. Preparation: Invest time in creating a compelling product description, eye-catching visuals, and a clear value proposition. Test your product thoroughly before launch and gather feedback from early users. 2. Engagement: Engage with the Product Hunt community by actively participating in discussions, responding to comments, and addressing questions. Offer incentives or exclusive offers to encourage users to try your product. 3. Promotion: Leverage your existing network, including social media channels, newsletters, and partnerships, to generate buzz before and during the launch. Collaborate with influencers or thought leaders who align with your product to extend your reach. Remember, authenticity and transparency are key.

Check all materials before launch. Some users have reported that the site does not function properly after launch. 😄

Plan carefully, create excitement with teasers and engaging content, communicate your unique value clearly, engage with the community, offer valuable content, seek support from your network, provide incentives for buzz, and iterate based on user feedback. Remember, it's not just the product, but also active engagement, community involvement, and a well-executed marketing strategy that matter.

Top 5 things 1) Start prepping early-don't just wait to have your votes secured on the last day that too with newly created profiles 2) Invest in creatives and content. There are 100s of launches everyday with people skimming through product pages. Can your images convey what your product delivers? 3) Scout the right hunter. The right hunter can make all the difference, from followers and reach to credibility 4) Get the buy-in of your fellow makers on PH 5) Invest in your personal brand Bonus- Do a pre-launch with lead magnets to hype users up. DON'Ts - Don't buy or farm clicks.

First of all, don't rely on the PH only! We should search for people who can support our product or share! So create your account on Linkedin, Twitter, Reddit, or IndieHackers! Build relationships with the users who are active on PH, check their profiles, visit their SNS, and connect with them there! Focus on engagement on those communities Lastly, if you're active on Twitter, search for your audience fast and reduce time for searching and determining to connect by using the hummin extension!

Focus on creating a compelling and concise product pitch that highlights unique features and benefits, while actively engaging with the Product Hunt community through genuine interactions to build awareness and generate buzz, like I'm doing rn ;)

We are launching Clustr on 10th July - https://www.producthunt.com/prod.... We put in a lot of effort, but maybe we overlooked something 🤔🤔🤔

Most of the things are already covered here - my only advice is to PLAN AHEAD to avoid last-minute chaos! That's what we went through, and the lesson was well learned :)
