Anchored Growth Update: HubSpot Integration Coming Online

Hey everyone!
Quick update as we gear up for our Product Hunt launch on Tuesday

One of the biggest requests we've heard from early users and partners has been Can I use Anchored Growth directly inside my CRM?

We re excited to share that we re finalizing our native HubSpot integration and it s a game-changer for how sellers work their pipeline.

All the “best practices” are industry best practices not ICP-specific best practices.

Your ICP in your niche engages differently than someone else s.
Every audience has hidden tendencies in how they like to be communicated with, tone, length, timing, cadence, and even channel preference.

Sometimes consciously.

Often unconsciously.

What do we need to do?

Hi everyone!
We are less than a month away from launching Anchored Growth here on Product Hunt! We're excited to show y'all what we have been building.
I would love to use this opportunity to the max and dive into the community here. Our goal for this launch is to gain more beta users. Beta user feedback has already helped with the design of Anchored Growth so much.

For those who have done this before, any advice on what we should focus on before, during and after our launch?

We need help with a pricing model

We re building Anchored Growth to solve a common problem in outbound sales: figuring out what actually works.

To give you some background: our platform uses AI to identify patterns in how prospects engage with your outreach, so you can stop guessing and start scaling what works.

It gives you real insights, like:

How did you know you were getting close to product market fit?

We re in early beta with a few users using SmartDial a powerful dialer for outbound sales teams using Zoom Phone. We re learning fast. Curious what signs made you feel product-market fit was getting close and what signals you chose to ignore. https://getcreel.com

Do you still believe in SEO?

Hi there! I've been working in content marketing & SEO for almost a decade - and while I've seen many announcements of the death of SEO, the current search climate, combined with the latest announcements from Google are strong signals that SEO may (finally ) be over.

What do you think? Is "answer engine optimization" the answer?

Should our product launch video feature a real person or just a voiceover with product footage?

Hey PH community!

We re preparing for our upcoming launch on Product Hunt and planning to include a short video introducing our product. We re debating between two approaches and would love your input:

How do I get more upvotes? What's the secret behind Product Hunt?

Hey makers,

I launched my product recently on Product Hunt. I put effort into the messaging, visuals, and value and was honestly excited to share it. But after 24 hours, I ve barely gotten any traction. A handful of upvotes, no meaningful feedback just cold emails and offers from marketers.

From 35 points to getting acquired - next-forge is now part of Vercel

@haydenbleasel just shared the news on X: @next-forge has been acquired by @Vercel.

Suggestions for meditation apps, or go back to Calm or Headspace?

@mat_sherman and I have been talking about meditation and I was remembering I had tested out @Calm and @Headspace. I searched forums and see references to these in convos 5 years ago. They still seem like the main contenders, but I also just downloaded @Insight Timer App @Breathwrk and https://www.meditatehappier.com/ too.

Anyone have experience with any of these? I'm new to meditation, have tried it a few times but have yet to build a habit and need to! Any recs are greatly appreciated!

Remote workers, how do you stay productive while being isolated?

The biggest boom in remote work was during the COVID pandemic, but corporations have started to call employees back into their offices, either because of prepaid office space or better control over employees' work.

Some have stuck with the remote model until now, e.g. Spotify.

What makes an AI interface feel “trustworthy” to you?

Some tools just feel more reliable even if the backend models are similar. Is it the tone, layout, citations, or transparency of the process? What gives you confidence to act on what AI says?

Are you building features or killing features (i.e. simplifying your products)?

Just yesterday I prevented my team from adding an exotic feature to our product.

My hypothesis is that people don't like many features in a product as that complicates the product adoption e.g. many sales guys hate CRMs for this reason. In that sense, more features might equate to no features as users don't adopt/use the product. So, minimalistic products that solve 1 big problem (80% of the problem pie) is what people like.

That's what I think.

What are your biggest outbound sales pain points right now?

We re building a tool called Anchored Growth to unify all outbound sales activity under one roof. Think of it as a command center that connects your tools, shows what s working, and helps you act faster.

We ve been in the trenches with teams bouncing between Instantly, HubSpot, Orum, spreadsheets you name it. Fragmented tools = fragmented strategy.

Curious to hear from you all:

Testing monetization in MVP - is Buy Me a Coffee a good idea?

Building a product I needed

Hey everyone!
How many of you are building a product that comes from your own frustration in your daily work? A tool that you wish existed but didn't.... so you took the bull by the horns and are building it!
That's where me and my team found ourselves. I've been in sales my entire career. I've spanned roles from a rep to a CRO. The one struggle I kept running into was how fragmented all of the sales tools are. Email automation, AI calling platforms, Linkedin Automation tools, CRMs, data platforms... blah blah blah.
We're building a platform that ties all of your sales tools together... in one place... one cohesive environment. It provides insights based on all outbound efforts. Insights like what method generates more engagement for your prospects, what messaging resonates better with your ideal clients, where you should be putting more effort based on your specific circumstances... and more
We're calling it Anchored Growth.
Enough about that, I'm really interested in seeing who's in the same builder mode and building what they're missing.

Wicked fast prototyping

Hey all!
I'm one of the cofounders of Anchored Growth, a sales tech platform to help companies solve the pain in the neck issue of siloed data and insights from fragmented sales tools! We'll be launching soon. We hit a great milestone this week. We're onboarding our first beta users!
But more on that later.

I know there's a lot of talk around vibe coding and the validity of it. From a non-technical co-founder, vibe coding has exponentially increased our development speed. I'm not talking about using the output as our product, I'm talking about getting the ideas out of my head and put into a useable prototype.
Instead of trying to build a great user story and make sure that Chase, our CTO knows what I mean, I just create a quick prototype with Lovable that works good enough, is directionally correct then shoot over a screen recording of the walkthrough and the lovable file. Boom! he knows exactly what I'm looking for.
I'm not confident in vibe coding being production ready, but it's great for ideation and rapid prototyping.
Are there any other tools out there that I should be looking at as a non-tech cofounder to help Chase streamline the build?
