Launching soon!
1. Build a support group in advance! Contact those you think would support you and let them know in advance - share the launch link so they can get Notified! https://www.producthunt.com/prod... 2. Look for Product Hunt communities in your region or founders communities and let them know about your launch too! 3. Build an excel list with all supporters/communities/companies to message on the day of the launch.

Here are my 2 cents: 1) Start building an audience WAY before your launch 2) Make sure your product is optimized and has testimonials/social proof before you launch

I haven’t launched yet, but I believe that conducting a comprehensive check of the product’s landing page and launching page is one of the most important things.

Launching soon!
This is a great thread, thanks for starting it. I'm not a product hunt expert, but I asked people to roast my product page, and that's been helpful so far.

No matter what happens, don't lose your focus. You may not receive the feedback and response you were expecting, that doesn't mean anything. Keep grinding.

Don't underestimate the power of community. Engage early and often with your users, and let them feel like they're a part of your journey.

Build a community of supporters—keep them engaged and excited about your product. Stay consistent and active in your communication. Launching shouldn’t be the only goal! I’m also working on connecting with more people, and seeing new product launches is always a fresh experience that provides great insights.
