  • Launch with the hunter or by myself?

    I tried to find a hunter for our launch for 1 week and all potential hunters ignore my emails and requests. Unfortunately... 😔 So, I am thinking of launching it by myself as a hunter and maker. But I am afraid that in that case we don't have enough support at the start. What do you think?

    A hunter is nice to have but they are not a must. You can launch on your own and have some good success. You can also relaunch after 6 months if you have some major updates. So I would advise you to not wait too long for launching. What is the product that you plan to launch?

    @fabian_maume Okay, I see, thank you! We are planning to launch LeaksID 2.0 (https://www.producthunt.com/prod...)

    With an experienced hunter they can support you in making sure you're ticking all the right boxes so to speak.

    Our team also plans to launch without hunters help in 1 month. The main thing here is to build a community step-by-step and ask for their feedback and support. It will gain more upvotes than the "name" of the hunter. Wish you good luck!

    By yourself. Before that make sure you have a few friends on social media with bigger audiences which you can DM to support the launch. Invest the time to make such connections instead of finding a hunter. It takes longer but will help you with more than this launch

    In my opinion, it's more important to have a 1 month long preparation than having a hunter on your launch day. It's about building a community, getting to know people and their expectations. I recommend you to create a unique landing page for PH visitors and maybe you can give some offers to them. It will be quite helpful. I wish you luck!

    @julia_demyanchuk Consider it done! :) I wish you luck btw.

    Hey! Hunters are not that important. You have almost 400 followers, your network is more than enough to gain attention to the launch. Good luck!

    @julia_demyanchuk We have launched our product 'Tixio Lite' which is a modish chrome extension to turn your regular browser tab into a beautiful & convenient start page. We tried so hard in the last couple of months to launch it. Do a quick check and don't forget to give your valuable feedback and some love. https://www.producthunt.com/post... Just let me know when you are planning to launch. I will be definitely there to support you.

    The hunter can extend the reach but it's not compulsory! You have a good number of followers! Go ahead! Soon you'll be the hunter people are looking for!

    Just build a strong community and hunt yourself. I have seen many products hunted by top hunters but not even in the top 10 rankings.
