Hi PH family, Our first product hunt launch: ChatDesigner.ai is coming up this week. Here's what we've done so far: 1. Continuously crafting our posts and materials 2. Created the teaser page https://www.producthunt.com/products/chatdesigner 3. Engage in the community and support other incredible products 4. Join product hunt support groups on linkedin (I found this extremely helpful, and there are few really good ones, I'll share in comments below) 5. Reach out to some hunters/indiehackers on X and linkedin and ask for advice for our launch. And we got some super helpful advice from some hackers. 6. Email our users about our launch 7. Share our launch news on all of our social media 8. Get the product hunt icon on our website (working on it) Anything else we should do? Hope we can get your support on Nov 18! Follow us on https://www.producthunt.com/products/chatdesigner

Don't be afraid to reach out to the community directly. We just launched (https://www.producthunt.com/post...) and found that the PH community is engaged and friendly. If it's a good product, they'll happily support!

@demondoss Thank you Sahil. I've clicked the notify button on your page as well! Your product looks very relevant to what we are doing as well. I've shared with our team. Good luck!

I think starting engaging discussions the day before/ hours before your launch is super helpful as it means you are in front of hunters' minds when you go live. Also, I know it's tempting but try not to spend the whole time watching the launch dashboard, I learned the hard way šŸ˜‚
