Do you use Twitter (X) to promote your product?

•
I am trynna play the long game right now on Twitter (X), making sure to be seeing by my ICPs. Unfortunately, things are going quite slow. So if you have used Twitter (X) to launch you product, I’d love to see how you did it! Is it thru ads, communities, DMs, or anything else? Also, I’d love to meeting new people on X, so let me know in the comment if you wanna connect as well!

I'm still in the process of experimenting with what resonates with our audience on Twitter for us and rather than launching we are trying to build a community! We have paid for twitter influences to promote our product at times also.

@shezzy04 I am trying to figure it out too! Twitter (X) can seem overwhelming as we start, so I’d love to hear how it’s turned out for you so far!

@jonathantahiry So far we have gotten to a point where the channel is organically growing on its own albeit very slowly. We did this by consistently reaching out to like-minded people on X and paying those with followers that have audiences similar to who we want to target. We have however since stopped spending in recent months as we are trying to now understand our audience again! Agree that it can be overwhelming but I believe that at the start, understanding what value you can provide and to whom is the hardest but most crucial step on X!
Jonathan Tahiry
@shezzy04 Wow, that’s an entire process you’ve got here! I don’t think I would go and pay for influencers yet, but thinking to go with ads to get seen by potential users at this point.

No! I can't even run ads on Twitter anymore weirdly enough. The account breaks a lot ad just runs into nothing but errors.
Jonathan Tahiry
@carter_michael Have you tried contacted the support team or they aren’t replying?
Jonathan Tahiry
@carter_michael Takes time, but I am convinced with that too! How it has been for you so far?
Carter Michael
@jonathantahiry They replied - one thing got fixed and it immediately broke again in just a different way.
Jonathan Tahiry
@carter_michael that’s a downer, so right now you are fully operating organically, right?
Carter Michael
@jonathantahiry No! Running ads on other platforms. Twitter we're now just not interested in. I think Twitter can be really good organically, ran ads on it in the past and it was really bad. Thought I would give it a god a year later to see if it's improved but sadly I couldn't. Could just be my experience though!
Doug Hudiburg
Absolutely. Twitter is a great platform for promoting your product. Tweet 2x per day Comment and engage with tweets from other hunters (a lot) DM to make real connections I'm slowly building a public list of Product Hunters. DM me on Twitter if you want to be added to the list! My Profile: https://twitter.com/MPaXmarketing Product Hunters Public List: https://twitter.com/i/lists/1732...

I personally don't use X to promote my PMM work, but our CEO is very active on Twitter promoting our products as well as being a founder / entrepreneur. I think it can be super useful if you're multifaceted in how you approach it.
@claire_oswald What's your field? For me LinkedIn works better than Twitter
Jonathan Tahiry
@claire_oswald and how is his result so far?
Claire Oswald
@alessio_mavica LinkedIn is utilized as well! Both seem to work pretty well in terms of driving engagement and leads to the company. We've received feedback from "how did you hear from us" and people have mentioned our CEO's posts on LinkedIn / Twitter.
Leo Lu
Of course, I'd also share about the journey of building the startup. Follow on X: https://twitter.com/realleolu

Ronan Hardy
Dear, I use LinkedIn for promoting our product is a valid choice, especially if our target audience and industry align well with LinkedIn's professional network. Each platform has its strengths, and choosing the one that best suits our product and audience is key.
Jonathan Tahiry
@ronan_hardy How do you approach people and have them answering you?
Marek Sotak
Yes, the chances that the post about your product will go viral are there and when it happens it is great. Here is my post that got 455 likes and some attention that helped us further improve the product not long time ago. https://twitter.com/sotak/status... Happy to follow back and support.
Jonathan Tahiry
@sotak just followed you to see how you made such wonder happen! Looking forward to connecting with you on X!

No, I used to try to stay active on Twitter, but stopped when it turned into X.
