Pretty Prompt

Pretty Prompt x Hubspot: Learnings from a weekend hack to 18k users

I was doubting myself about whether I should post this. It's hard to share your real story in front of thousands of people and not be critical about it. But it s out !

All the slides from the HubSpot x Pretty Prompt event - Preview here

Feels a bit cringe. But you do what you have to do to grow your company, and maybe these learnings help other builders scale their products as we did.

Project management OS

What’s your #1 challenge or lesson from a product launch?

Launching a product is wild- one minute you re pumped, next minute you hit a wall!

I m Deepak, founder of Product Launch OS. After helping 200+ founders and refining every part of our launch dashboard, I know every story is different.

What launch advice do you swear by?
Any major oops moments, lessons learned, or productivity hacks you recommend?
What communities, platforms, or tools gave you a real boost?

I analyzed why 34 products that hit #1 on PH never made $1k MRR. And im lowkey disturbed

ok so weird backstory - ive been building products for startups for like 8 years now and i got obsessed with this question: why do products that KILL IT on product hunt just... die?

like were talking #1 product of the day, 1000+ upvotes, features in newsletters, the whole thing. and then 6 months later? dead or making $300/month

Notes from a failed Product Hunt launch

After hours of reading best practices, crafting the perfect assets and assembling what felt like a bulletproof plan, we were ready to launch on Product Hunt. We worked so hard and genuinely believed we d wake up to thousands of sign ups and the Product of the Day badge.

The reality was very different. We saw a tiny boost in sign ups, got stuck at around 200 upvotes, and to top it off, finished below a food blender.
