Hey @SamuelHulick! Glad to see you publish a book based on UserOnboarding.com (which got a ton of love a few months ago).
How are sales so far? What are you doing to market the book?
@bogomep - I realize it's not entirely clear what "products" are encouraged on Product Hunt. We define the term loosely to include not just technology products but also things like books as long as they are:
(1) not super well known/obvious
(2) relevant to the current audience of early adopter/techie folks
@SamuelHulick's User Onboard book is a good fit as there are several marketers, product people, etc. here. Additionally, we encourage brand new, launched products as those are generally the most compelling to people on the site. Hope that helps! :)
@rrhoover thanks for clearing that up! Looking forward to posting the Rocketship when the time (finally) comes.
@SamuelHulick page looks great to me ;-)
Hi everyone - I'm the author of the book, and am super happy to answer any questions you might have about the product and, of course, user onboarding in general!
@rrhoover Sales are pretty good, but the reception's been outstanding, which is more important to me. As Bogomil mentioned above, I'm still trying to find the sweet spot for the offer page, but I'm a UX designer, not a born marketer.
That goes for all the rest of the marketing, too. Everything's been either word of mouth or sites like these, which has been pretty great to see!
This one is very helpful for anyone building their own SaaS.
If you are short on time, check out User Onboarding *for startups* (Cheat Sheet) here on Product Hunt.
10 minutes to read, and definitely pays for the time investment!
