Email marketing definitely still works if you do it right. The key is having a quality email list of people who actually want to hear from you, and sending them engaging content that provides real value. There are some great AI tools out there now that can help with writing compelling email copy. I've been playing around with Copy.ai for generating email subject lines and body copy, and the...

Okay, now this looks super fun. I like that you rebuilt the whole thing, it must have been a real grind! Quick question though - how does it handle larger datasets? Also, how do you manage sharing insights with others? Anyway, good luck with the launch!

Hey Chiheb, love the sound of this tool! Definitely something I could use. Quick question though - does the platform give real-time competition updates, or is it more of a one-time snapshot? Thanks and congrats on the launch!

Depends on the founder and industry. A great product beats a big personal brand any day. But in today's social media era, having a visible personal brand can def open doors. Folks with influence get easier access to press, deals, talent. Just gotta keep it real and not let it go to your head, ya know?
Do founders benefit more from a personal brand than those without one?

Wow, that's pretty mind-blowing! I've been playing around with Claude a bit and it's super capable. Definitely curious to try this 'strawberry' model and see how it compares. The rapid advancements in these AI language models is both exciting and a little scary. Thanks for sharing the example @viktor_surkov, look forward to hearing others' experiences with it too!
Honestly, I'm shocked by the capabilities of OpenAI's "strawberry" model.

Interesting approach with the thesis - I like the focus on enthusiastic fresh grads! Personally, I think a mix of experienced folks and eager newcomers works well for startups. Gotta have that balance of proven skills and fresh ideas. Also super important to nail the culture fit. I always try to really get to know candidates in interviews, beyond just their resume, to see if they'll mesh well...

Some major risks I see: 1) AI being used to automate cyberattacks & hacking at massive scale 2) Algorithms perpetuating societal biases & inequalities 3) AI systems becoming so complex that even their creators can't fully control or understand them anymore... def concerning stuff to think about as AI keeps advancing 🤔
What are the potential risks of AI surpassing human intelligence? 🤔

I use the speech-to-text feature in Google Docs constantly for drafting articles and blog posts. Just hit the microphone icon and start dictating. It's pretty accurate and saves a ton of typing time. Also great for brainstorming and getting thoughts out quickly without worrying about typos.
How do you use speech-to-text features to boost your productivity?

Def keep a close eye on the competition but don't get too obsessed over it. Focus on making your own product 10x better and building real relationships with your customers - that's the key to staying ahead long-term IMO. Anyone used AI tools for competitive research btw?

Hmm that's a tricky situation. I'd try reaching out to the Product Hunt team directly to see if they can remove the listing since you weren't ready for the full launch yet. They're usually pretty responsive and helpful with things like this. Hopefully they can sort it out for you! Let us know how it goes.
My product in beta and not supposed to launch, but someone hunt it on Product Hunt, can I remove it?

If you're managing multiple projects, this Notion template seems like a no-brainer. I love how comprehensive it is--everything from project management to tracking finances is all in one place. Plus, it's got a super clean layout. Congrats on the launch! Wishing you great success!

With $100-500/month, I'd focus on 3 things: 1) Targeted social ads on Facebook/Instagram to reach your ideal customers. 2) Google search ads to get in front of people actively looking for your type of product/service. 3) Micro-influencer partnerships - find influencers whose audience aligns well with your target market. Also, keep an eye on your organic posts and boost the top performers to get...

I've found offering a free ebook or PDF guide related to my newsletter topic works well as a lead magnet. For example, '10 Insider Tips to Supercharge Your Marketing' or a case study showing results. The key is providing genuine value that makes people excited to subscribe for more.
What kind of lead magnets have you used to attract more newsletter subscribers?

This sounds like a cool idea, especially for teachers and students who are always looking to save time. The analytics feature in Croduct PDF is a smart touch too, helping users see how they're doing productivity-wise. Also, the fact that it's super affordable is a huge plus. Congrats on the launch @aydinjoshi!
