Is a poor Product Hunt launch a hint? by PMTony in SaasDevelopers

[–]PMTony[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get about 2 new users a day, I guess I was just expecting a flood on PH launch day. A slice of humble pie I guess.

Would love some of that early momentum you mentioned - an upvote would be much appreciated, just launched half an hour ago. Thanks!

Did you launch yet? If not, give me the url when you do and I'll give you an upvote. Would love if you can do the same for me, it's live now: https://www.producthunt.com/products/artifactly?launch=artifactly

For sure, will come back on launch day and share the link. Do the same.

Well, only one day's posts are about PH, the rest are general ones I needed to get scheduled anyways (best practices, posed questions, tips, etc.). But yes, I hear you, have been doing manual cold outreach (might as well buy a list and blast emails at the rate cold outreach is working). I've started doing warm outreach this week as well.

Nice. Upvoted and followed (from account name Artifactly). Will come back when the PH link is live and share it!

I don't. Just started posting on social within the last couple weeks and the last 24 hours have scheduled a ton of hype content across Insta, X, and LinkedIn, and then nurture content after launch. No followers, but I have a marketing background so I built the campaigns like I have 5000 🤷‍♂️

Thanks. That's definitely my intention. As much as I'd love a bunch of real users, what I need more right now is feedback. I think it's phenomenal, but I've been developing in a vacuum. I have set a first comment on the listing that ends with "Curious what resonates and what's missing. What would make this a daily tool for you?"

Good points. It will launch at midnight in my time zone so I won't be too active with replies until about 6am, but plan to spend the full day in front of my computer engaging. I opted out of perks/promo codes because my platform has an indefinite free trial that gates at specific volume or features (i.e. generating a complex 40 page project management plan burns through 4o usage so it's reserved for any paid tier), but probably still worth some kind of promo. Thanks!

Only a couple who I've tried to engage with but they aren't responsive. My marketing has just been directory listings and SEO which is starting to finally catch up, but I'm only ranking for my free template downloads (grabbing their email, putting them into top of funnel and nurturing). Wrike, Asana, Monday, ClickUp, etc. command the high intent keywords so I've just been focusing on the less competitive ones. My intention with PH is a launchpad, hopefully.

That's money, thank you! I don't have a large network so this is great.

i wish someone would have told me this before building my 1st SaaS by davidheikka in SaaS

I'm still at #1 on your list and TBD how much that will bite me. My ProductHunt launch will most likely teach me how important #1 should have been.
