How we got 285+ clients in 48 hours from Product Hunt

These are some great statistics! Thanks for sharing. Curious, did you launch on anything else apart from Producthunt like Betalist?

Thank you for sharing details and your insights, @igor13. This definitely helps!
I just wanted to get your thoughts on whether you think it's worth spending $1000?

Thanks for the detailed article.

Very inspiring.

If you guys are just starting and need to acquire customer with low cost I would recommend you guys to check this video by kahtryn minshew the founder of The Muse about : Kathryn Minshew, Acquiring Your First Users Out of Thin Air, The Lean Startup Conference 2013

In that video she goes trough step by step on how to get first initial customer with less to none cost.

The main idea in that video is if you want to get your first initial customer you need to go and sell them, either sell your product to blogger, influencers or customer you need to do the work to force people to introduce your product.

She talked about how to approach bloggers, media etc and how to email them and how to approach customers and then request them to promote for you.

I also recommend you to read this article about : Acquiring Your First Users Out of Thin Air

Love seeing the process of it all, very insightful!

awesome writeup!

As someone who’s done a few product hunt launches, these are some great and insightful tips.

I found a lot of this helpful for my launches as well.

very insightful!! we will launch on Sep 25th. Still have time to find influencers

Cool! Now the competition looks very strong. In 2020, Plerdy and I were #2 on the list in one day. Just a few days ago, we finished in 12th place.

How do you find the perfect hunters or twitter influencers for your niche?
Does influencers reply to messages?

Thanks for your insights Igor ! so valuable !
How did you choose and select the influencers to partner with ?

Thanks for your sharing. This is really helpful, because I will launch my product soon.

Thanks for sharing, I seems you product is having an incredible start!

We got #5 on the daily charts by posting on Producthunt, and probably had a total of 600+ users come through, judging by Google Analytics!

Hey Igor, congratulations on the successful launch and the numbers you've received so far. If I could offer some friendly advice, I would remove the customer testimonials for now until you get some real ones that you can proudly show off. It was fairly easy to confirm that the ones on the site right now are AI generated and it's much better to not include them than to have potential customers scared away by them. Best of luck my friend!

Is there anything you would have done differently?

I wonder how much extra traffic comes from bloggers and media who talk about Product Hunt launches. They write articles and share links, and that can bring more visitors.
Did you measure the side effect?

Very good advice, which will be of great help to my next Launch.

Thank you for your transparency, those numbers look great

Really appreciate for sharing the exact numbers even with AI influencers post costs

This will help to calculate the ROI as well

That's great!

Good post. Helpful resources. Thank you

Excellent article, very useful and will be using this for my own product launch. Good luck with your venture.

Your detailed recount of the this journey truly resonated. Launching a product there can be such a rollercoaster, and your strategy was clearly well thought out.

Took a deep dive into M1-project, and the concept of letting AI quickly craft ICPs is truly innovative. It's such a pain point for many founders, and this approach could be a game-changer.

Specially liked the emphasis on both B2B elements like company size and revenue, as well as the detailed buyer persona attributes like hobbies and values. It's this holistic view that can make a huge difference.

Excited to see where you take this!

Thanks a lot, really helpful stuff. How do you get in touch with those influencers and negotiate prices with them?

just come back here to thank you for assisting on my first every product launch https://www.producthunt.com/posts/creative-blog-topic. I got no 18 of the day which for first time I feel good about it.

I follow all the groups and subreddit you listed here and then pushed my link asking for upvote exchanges.

Surprisingly I got over 44 votes and it is amazing.

Thanks for these tips

PH is a great platform for launching startups and your Facebook group list is very useful and saved 10s of hours of research.

Crazy good results for Product Hunt. I'd aim to try and turn those mailers into paying customers with a presale.

This is insightful! Thanks for sharing your experience. did you try other platforms like IH or HN or even Reddit?

That's great! I am saving this post for a future product launch.

Heads up because platforms like ProductHunt help you to get an initial boost. I'd add them to the launch announcement list. However, as soon as it becomes a not-so-new product, these platforms give fewer results.

This is an awesome walkthrough! Did you ever try Hackernews?

Are you planing to launch anything in the near future?

Why didn't you do a video ad?
may ask how the conversation with the influencers work
did you start the conversation on Twitter?

These are really helpful insights. Would you consider the work you put into the PH launch worth it for you?

I love the design of your landing page! Also the list of places where you made announcements is very useful!

This is a great resource, thank you for sharing. Do you think ProductHunt skew more towards B2C products instead of B2B? Now that you've launched, is there anything you wish you'd done differently?

Thanks for sharing! Did you work directly with the influencers or did you use a platform/agency to find them? How did you negotiated the price?

Thank you that was very helpful

Thanks for sharing

Congratulations on the Successful Launch of M1-Project on ProductHunt! 🚀

First and foremost, I'd like to commend you on the meticulous planning and execution of your launch strategy. The results you've achieved, especially in terms of website visitors and email collection, are a testament to the hard work and dedication you've put into this project.

Your insights into the mechanics of ProductHunt and the strategies you've employed to gain traction are invaluable. It's evident that you've learned from past experiences and have iteratively improved your approach. The way you've leveraged various platforms, from Facebook groups to Reddit threads, and even influencer marketing, paints a clear picture of the multifaceted approach required for a successful launch in today's digital landscape.

One particular takeaway that resonated with me is the importance of customer interaction and feedback. As you rightly pointed out, engaging with potential clients and addressing their concerns not only helps in conversion but also provides invaluable insights for product improvement.

Lastly, your reflections on what could have been done better, such as pixel tracking and automated email responses, show a growth mindset. It's this kind of introspection that sets successful entrepreneurs apart.

Wishing you continued success with M1-Project and looking forward to seeing how it evolves based on the feedback and insights you gather from your growing user base. Keep soaring! 🌟

@igor13 Igor, congrats on your success. How do you measure the effectiveness of your marketing efforts? In other words how many customers came from Reddit, Facebook etc.

Thanks

Thank you for providing such helpful advice, especially regarding your transparent information about influencers’ posts and prices.

I will definitely keep these points in mind when I launch Lifetimo on ProductHunt.

Based on your experience, would you work with the influencers again?

Thanks for sharing your tactics! It is super helpful!

Thanks for your sharing. I may be launching a product soon and your post has been very helpful to me.

Nice! Thank you very much for sharing. I'm sure that will be super helpful for our product too.

Thanks for sharing your playbook!

That's very helpful for me. It will be of great assistance for my upcoming lunch.

wow that great! we also plan to launch on PH

Amazing insights, thanks for sharing. This should help beginners like myself looking to embark on this journey

Congrats on the successful launch! How long did it take for you to build this momentum on PH?

Thanks for sharing! This was really helpful.

Hey, I just submit a post few minutes before yours in which I asked for these kind of advices.
Thank you for sharing.
