Product hunt live chat full#
As for time, went with Tuesday Midnight PST to get a full 24 hours in America starting from the West Coast.Ĥ. For this I took a look at the top hunter leaderboards here & politely asked many of them if they could hunt us. Finding an influential hunter & choosing the right time to launch. (This is important & something we could’ve done better) see belowģ. Although many companies create their own landing pages in preparation for PH ( here’s an awesome example), for the sake of time, we decided to opt for a pop-up notification on the main page of our site. In my opinion blogs (like this one) are the best resource you can invest your time in if you plan on launching on PH. I read tons of blogs on the successes (& failures) of many makers, CEO’s, & founders of startups. Waltr’s launch on Product Hunt was super successful (500+ upvotes) & using some of Josh’s advice, I composed pre-launch & post-launch plans that I followed explicitly. How Did SupportYourApp Achieve This Product Hunt Success?Īfter the awesome suggestion of one of my good friends Josh - Marketing Director for Softorino (responsible for Waltr) - I decided to start working on a Product Hunt campaign in hopes of getting some more traffic like they did. This might not sound huge, but for a company that averages around 7–10 unpromising leads per month… it is significant. EDIT: It’s been a month since launch and we are in the process of securing multiple contracts from our PH campaign. Our Product Hunt launch on Tuesday November 10th, yielded nearly 250 upvotes, 10x more page clicks, a 1500% increase in visits, & most importantly… 60 leads (and growing). Okay intro over… back to what you came here for 🙂 The Stats As of writing this, we have 20 clients that we do 24/7 phone & email support for. We are simply a customer support team in Kyiv, Ukraine. My name is Jack & I’m the marketing guy behind SupportYourApp.
A Short Word…īefore I let you know how I did it & the preparation behind the launch… It’s necessary for a short description of us & a little selfless promotion. It was due to Product Hunt that we were able to get over this “hump”.
Now, prior to our Product Hunt launch, SupportYourApp had been relying on SEO/PPC ads/word of mouth mainly as resources to secure more leads & more clients (Maybe some of you can relate). Anybody with the “Maker” status can hunt products, so get in touch with these guys 😉 IMPORTANT: Your product needs to be good enough to share and talk about if you want Product Hunt to post you. Founders are using it as a launch pad, investors as a hunting ground, and many others just to stay in the know.” The result is a daily top 10 list of what people should be paying attention to across the industry. Every day, it curates a list of the top products and startups that people haven’t heard of yet and lets a widening yet select group of members upvote, comment and discuss. “Product Hunt is now the place to discover the “next big things” in tech. Since I feel “startup showcase website” might be a little insulting to the PH team… I’ll give a much more flattering description from the mouths of VC firm First Round Capital: It wasn’t until we discovered & did a crazy amount of research on Product Hunt - that we realized how incredibly powerful this startup showcase website could be.
(you can thank me now or thank me later) Product Hunt This is where I let you know about an awesome growth secret. Many small startups begin their journey with the essentials of marketing and business development… SEO, PPC ads, email outreach, networking, etc, yet many CEOs will hit a plateau trying to get their new product off the ground.
