The support on PH is refreshing.
What I learned from launching on Product Hunt this week (as far as I can understand, today): - If you're in the US, set your product launch EARLY in the morning. It's tough to climb the charts that day if you're going against a product with 188 upvotes already, while you're still at 1. - Simple communication. I still think I got a little lost in the sauce trying to describe the CEO ShortList as a narrative, vs focusing on the core product (at the stage it's in today). Quick, easy communication is still - Don't oversell the amount of topics your product is associated with. Again, I know it's hard but just the top 2-3 is good. Same idea as above, focus on your products core, be honest with yourself and don't overthink it Great start and hopefully the start of something cool... I've been in the startup space for a decade or so now but only recently became a PH member. Well, since quarantine actually. It's been great to meet/interact/network and ohh yeah, release ideas to early adapters who get the growth process of a startup. It's been a great experience PH community. ...And I almost forgot, check us out https://www.producthunt.com/post...
What tools best enable your remote team to collaborate and do great work?
Remote has been on the rise for years, but Covid has forced all companies to adjust to it over the past few months. I'm curious to know: 1. What tools are indispensable for your team to get work done? Which do you love the most and why? 2. What tools/rituals help your team still feel a sense of togetherness / build culture? 3. What are the biggest missing pieces to your remote team toolkit, or things that cause the biggest pain points? I'm compiling all the results and will share that publicly (and on PH of course). The more data and opinions, the better!
How do you find your first (beta) enterprise customers/testers?
Hi Makers! I'm working on a tool aimed at medium to large companies (100+ employees). My tool is still in its infancy and I'm looking for beta users in the enterprise world to test it and help us build. So my question is, how do you go about finding them when you are so early stage? What are your strategies? What's your pitch like?
