How do you manage the balance between staying active on Product Hunt and other responsibility

by•

I've noticed many founders and marketers on Product Hunt manage to stay consistently active while also handling their primary responsibilities, whether it's running a business, developing a product, or managing a team. This seems like a real juggling act, and I'm curious about the strategies you use to maintain this balance. Here are a few specific questions to get the discussion rolling: Time Management: How do you allocate time specifically for Product Hunt activities without letting it interfere with your main work? Prioritization: When you have a lot on your plate, how do you prioritize between engaging on Product Hunt and other tasks? Productivity Tools: Are there any tools or techniques that you rely on to help manage your time effectively? Engagement Strategies: How do you keep your engagement authentic and meaningful on Product Hunt, even with limited time? Looking forward to hearing your tips and experiences!

It's definitely a challenge! I try to block off dedicated time each day for engaging on PH, separate from my other work. Having those focused time blocks helps me stay active in the community while not neglecting other responsibilities. Also setting realistic expectations about how much I can engage helps prevent PH from becoming too much of a distraction. Would love to hear how others handle this balancing act!

Schedule out times to come on here and engage.

It's a bit challenging. I usually stick to my schedule and check PH several times a day. But sometimes I'm too busy to do that.

I set specific times each day for Product Hunt and use Trello to manage tasks and reminders.

It's all about prioritizing and setting aside dedicated time for the things that matter most. For me, I block off an hour each morning to engage on PH, share updates, and connect with the community here. The rest of my day is for deep work on the product itself and other bizdev responsibilities. Having that consistent PH time is key though - it keeps me plugged in to all the awesome discussions and innovations happening in the startup world! Discipline with your calendar is essential.

It's all about prioritization and time-boxing for me. I set aside dedicated time blocks each day to engage on Product Hunt, while ensuring I don't neglect my other responsibilities. Leveraging productivity tools like Todoist helps me stay organized and on track. The key is being intentional with your time and not letting PH become a black hole of distraction (easier said than done, I know!). Would love to hear how others strike that balance effectively.
