Stepping into 2021 there is some optimism that things might start going back to normal to some point and I'm curious what's the first thing you would do if everyone went back to normal right now? For me, I'd probably just go to a restaurant. I miss dining out so much
Hello, Hunters! Currently, your profiles on Product Hunt mainly show what products you have upvoted and don't tell much about you. We'll be updating them soon, and we want them to be better for you. What would you want to add, change or remove? How can we make them useful to you?
User feedback is crucial to the product development cycle - but it isn't always the first step to building a successful product. How early in your journey did you start integrating user feedback? "If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses" - Henry Ford
Happy Monday makers! With the start of a new week, let's come together for some collaboration! Share what you're working on, what stage it's in, who your target audience is, and how others can help. Then in return help out other makers with their products!
Is there anything you would have done differently? Is there any skill you wish you had, or any contact you wish you never lost? Maybe, there was a good deal that you turned down and regretted?
Hi PH I would like to share experiences on how to get early feedback and validation when launching a new product Let's start with mine... 1. In January I created a landing page about my new product with the goal of collecting early adopters e-mails 2. I searched on LinkedIn for professionals that can benefit from my new product. In my case I looked for "conversational designers" and I obtained a list of 6 hundreds people approx.
3. I created a sequence (thanks to an automation tool) to engage with those people on LinkedIn: view profile, follow, send an invite, endorse skills and a couple of follow-up messages to request if they were interested to get early access to the new product.
4. Once they land on the landing page, I started engaging with them directly on the landing page through a widget and a conversational application that I built with my brand new no-code design studio in a few minutes. In this way I obtained the first 100 early adopters. This helped me a lot to gather feedback and improve the product before the launch scheduled on Thursday, Feb 9th. What about your experience to look for early adopters?
Becoming an entrepreneur is an exciting journey, but it's also one that comes with plenty of challenges and obstacles. If you could go back in time and give advice to your younger self when you first embarked on this journey, what would you say?
We love celebrating products, but we realized that we could congratulate the community on their achievements. We launched badges last month with an initial set, but we can t get enough now. If you haven t seen those yet, go to your profile and add badges to your showcase so other users can see what you re most proud of earning. We want to launch another set of badges this quarter (we ve heard a lot of you request a badge for long streaks), so please submit your ideas here, and we ll try to make some of them happen!
Hi, makers! I'd love to hear about your experience with the audience-led approach and what are the best practices that you've discovered? Did you build an audience before launching your product/s? Which platform/s have you focused on to build an audience? And what kind of content have you created? Thanks!
