First Product Launch

by
Hi y'all, Excited to be launching our first product on Saturday and wanted to reach out to the community for any additional advice in regards to how to make this a smooth and successful process. I feel like exhausted all the guides possible that Product Hunt graciously provides us but obviously, the real-world experiences are different from a best practice guide. Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide and I'll be sure to come back with a breakdown of everything after the launch.

All the best for the launch...I'll keep my eyes open for it. Have you checked the wonderful to-do list compiled by @falak_sher ?
Rob Henrichs
@geetanjalishrivastava I have not had a chance to! I'll definitely look into it! Thanks for the pointer.

If you're launching on Saturday then I recommend you do a prelaunch to build up more traction before the initial launch since launches can be scheduled and promote it in the discussions. Good luck!

@richard_gao2 Thanks for the advice! We got our coming soon page set up now so working on the promotion piece! https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

If you are new to product hunt, I recommend you to launch with a hunter. That will lower a bit your workload, and you will have recommendations about the best practices. Here is a good website to find a hunter in your niche: https://upvote-bell.com/leaderboard

@fabian_maume Thanks Fabian, I'll take a look at finding a hunter, I appreciate it!
