We're wondering whether a hunter would give our product more reach. What are your thoughts?

Usually, hunters give more reach when they have many followers and are active in the community 🤔 We are launching without a hunter though. We'll see how it goes! 👇 producthunt.com/products/steerer

@michaelshver we actually launched before without a hunter, and I'd 100% recommend it. It's always a great experience and an opportunity to build credibility yourself as a builder

If hunter is not just a hunter but your supporter, advisor, partner in launch - then it can work great!

@kate_ramakaieva can't agree more. I guess it depends on the type of relation you have with the hunter

From what I've seen from top products, launching with a hunter still seems helpful. I've seen makers with huge audiences themselves still launching by a hunter, in my opinion, you wouldn't lose anything if you'd launch by a hunter, however, if you launch yourself, your product may easily go unnoticed, especially if your followers are low.

Congratulations on the upcoming launch, Alvaro! It sounds like an exciting milestone, and leveraging Product Hunt could be a great way to gain visibility and feedback from a vibrant community.
