My secret sauce for a successful launch is building anticipation early and focusing on genuine engagement. I prioritize gathering feedback from our core audience before the launch to fine-tune the product and ensure it truly meets their needs. This creates excitement and a sense of ownership in the community, making the launch feel like a shared win

Personally, I swear by detailed planning and preparation. From creating a launch checklist to scheduling promotional activities, having everything mapped out helps ensure that nothing falls through the cracks.

Great question!

The best part about a great Product Hunt launch is that it all comes down to good planning and knowing who you’re aiming for. Nail those two things, and you've got the foundation to stand out.

First, know your audience. If you’re not speaking their language, your launch might just fall flat.

Then, get started early. A great launch doesn’t happen overnight. It might take a good 4-6 weeks, sometimes even more.

Build your base. Use social media (especially Buildinpublic on Twitter), newsletters. Make sure you’ve got a squad ready to back you up on launch day.

That's 80% of the secret.
