    actually it is a long term plan and strategic approach. it depends on several parameters. type of product, audiences, target group etc. then need execution plan.

    Promoting a startup or side project requires a strategic approach to reach the right audience. Here's where I with my JetSoftPro's team (https://jetsoftpro.com/) focus our efforts: Online Communities: Engaging platforms like Product Hunt, Reddit, and specialized forums relevant to your industry can help you connect with your target audience and gain early traction. Social Media: Leveraging platforms such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook allows you to showcase your project's value, interact with potential users, and create a strong online presence. Content Marketing: Publishing insightful articles, blog posts, and videos on platforms like Medium or your own blog can position you as an expert and draw attention to your project. Networking Events: Participating in industry conferences, webinars, and workshops provides valuable opportunities to showcase your project, learn from peers, and connect with potential collaborators. Email Campaigns: Building an email list enables you to keep your audience informed about updates, news, and offers related to your project. Collaborations: Partnering with influencers, other startups, or complementary businesses can help you tap into their audience and gain exposure. Startup Directories: Listing your project on platforms like Crunchbase, AngelList, and Betalist can increase your project's visibility within the startup ecosystem. Online Ads: Strategic use of Google Ads, Facebook Ads, and other online advertising platforms can help you target specific demographics and drive traffic to your project. App Stores and Marketplaces: If your project is an app, getting it listed on app stores like Apple App Store and Google Play can increase its visibility and accessibility. Pitch Competitions: Participating in startup pitch competitions can provide exposure, networking opportunities, and potential funding.

    ah, the art of amplifying one's craft. 🎨 1. communities like PH, indiehackers: genuine feedback awaits. 2. reddit's r/sideprojects or r/startups: tread with value-first approach. 3. local meetups: nothing beats face-to-face insights. 4. niche-specific forums: find your audience's digital hangouts. 5. twitter threads: conversations > promotions. 6. linkedin: share the journey, not just the destination. 7. guest blogging: wield the pen, share expertise. 8. collaborate with complementary projects: synergy amplifies reach. 9. engage in relevant FB groups: be helpful, not spammy. 10. always, organic word of mouth: authenticity travels. remember, it's less about where, more about how you engage. ✨

    As a SaaS Product Demo animation explainer video expert, I promote my startup/side project on a variety of platforms, including: LinkedIn: LinkedIn is a great platform for connecting with potential customers and partners. I use LinkedIn to share blog posts, articles, and videos about my product, and I also participate in relevant groups and discussions. Product Hunt: Product Hunt is a great platform for getting early feedback on my product. I submit my product to Product Hunt every time I launch a new feature or update, and I've gotten some great feedback from the community. Twitter: Twitter is a great platform for building a following and generating buzz for my product. I use Twitter to share news about my product, as well as links to blog posts and articles. Facebook: Facebook is a great platform for reaching a large audience. I use Facebook to share videos and images of my product, as well as links to blog posts and articles.
