Can't say I've had to build my own Product Hunt profile, but if you're looking to beef yours up:
1.Upvote and comment regularly, but make it meaningful—no "Nice!" or "Cool!" stuff.
2.Hunt products that genuinely excite you. Unique finds earn you cred.
What has worked the best for strengthening your Product Hunt profile?

I've used Gumroad before, and it's quite straightforward. Haven't tried Lemon Squeezy, so can't compare directly, but I've heard it's user-friendly too.
Gumroad or Lemon Squeezy?

Engaging content, social media ads, email campaigns, and influencer collaborations can work well.

Service-based companies often have to deal with scalability issues and continuous customer engagement, which can be a real pain.
What distinct challenges do service-based companies face compared to product-based companies?

Talk to your potential customers, understand their pain points, and see if your idea provides a viable solution.

Spreadsheets, man. Can't say I'm a fan but they're kinda unavoidable in project management. My skills are improving slowly but surely, though.
What activity do you suck at but continue to do regardless?

Our "User Stories" campaign was a real winner. We decided to spotlight how our customers were using our product in unique ways. Instead of us talking about our product, we let our users do the talking.
The marketing campaign you're most proud of

Been using Intercom for a while. It's solid for real-time support and the knowledge base is pretty good.

I'm all for building a minimum viable product and getting it in front of real users. Surveys and interviews can be helpful too. Quick, iterative testing - that's the way to go.
The best ways to test / validate ideas.

I didn't fight for my dreams because I believed they were impossible to obtain.
What's your biggest regret? 🙃

Currently using ChatGPT as a quick tool for idea brainstorming and first-draft content creation. While it's not replacing a human writer anytime soon, its ability to provide instant outputs based on prompts is handy.
What are you using ChatGPT for?

Bit of a lifehack, but I've been using As Project Manager to organize my workflow. Their dashboards are super intuitive and it's been a game changer in keeping the chaos of Monday morning in check.
How do you beat Monday blues and start your week positively?

Just hit up a mix of outdoor time, mindfulness and digital detox. A stroll in the park or beach can do wonders for the mind. Top it off with some Headspace or Calm for guided meditation - great tools right there. Cut down on Netflix, instead read a good book or delve into a personal project.
How do you unwind over a weekend to have productive week ahead?

Just came across the beast that is OpenAI's GPT-4! I've also played around with Runway ML, which is excellent for artists. Another intriguing one is a brand-new AI called "Writerly" that is incredibly user-friendly and adjusts your writing style.
What are some cool AI projects you found recently?

Straight up, yes. It's pretty common in the tech space. Even giants like Facebook and Twitter started with a MVP (Minimum Viable Product) approach. Launch early, get user feedback, iterate, and improve. Just ensure the core functionality is solid and provides value to your users.
Is it okay to launch a product before all the features are ready?

Ah, that early hustle. My first customers came through a good mix of cold emails and networking at local startup events.
How did you get your first customers ❓
