Hey, hunters! We all know how intense work can be, and everyone has their ups and downs. It would be very interesting to know what you do to get some rest and find the strength to continue? Share your thoughts in the comments!
For me it's Boltic. When I see the pace at which our team is adding new features to Boltic every week, I feel so proud of being associated with it. We launched Boltic on Product Hunt and the journey so far has been amazing for the entire team. So many users are able to solve their day to day work problems using Boltic. Let me know if you gave it a try, if not you can try it at boltic.io . Now name one product that you are proud of and why?
I would love to know what you people are working on. Maybe I will find some excellent and exciting tools, SaaS, extensions, or productivity tools that I can share with my audience.
Jeanne Baret, Frida Kahlo, Virginia Wolf, Sabiha Gokcen the ones first appears in my mind. I respect women in history and I believe it was even harder to achieve any success back then.
After a year of working on a side project as the CTO of a startup, I am finally ready to launch Beedone. This app has been my passion project and has helped me achieve more of my goals. Six months ago, the app was completed and I fell in love with it. It helped me create habits, establish routines, and even read more books! But the story didn't end there. After the ChatGPT buzz, I reached out to OpenAI, who gave me a ton of ideas to bring some magic to Beedone. I'm confident that people who try Beedone will love it. And the best part is, it's completely free! There's no financial pressure, only love and passion. I even tried to do some ads, but it just burned my money. That's when I started learning more about building in public and Twitter, especially with the new CEO. I discovered Product Hunt and began dreaming about having Beedone as a Product of the Day. However, being French, my network didn't know much about Product Hunt. But that's okay! I've been working on the launch for a month during weekends and nights. I've used Canva and Midjourney to create some beautiful graphics, and I've met some amazing people on Twitter by asking for advice. Tomorrow, no matter what happens, I'll be happy. Thank you all for your support, and I love Product Hunt!
Recently Elon announced that starting next month only Twitter Blue subscribers will be eligible to be featured in the for you page and vote in polls. Will this convince you to buy Twitter Blue if you haven't already?
I noticed that most of the new and upcoming design/creative apps come with real-time collab editing as a key feature, and they even base their promo and monetization around such a feature. Most of them don't benefit from having real-time collab editing, and I'm starting to wonder if they lack vision. What works:
Modular collab, John creates the background while Jane creates the characters. What doesn't work:
John and Jane work on the background and then on the characters at the same time.
The "I will draw the eyes, you will draw the ears, and Joe will rotate, shade, or do whatever" just doesn't work. In my opinion, some creative processes must be individual.
1. Brainstorm unique launch ideas (e.g. limited-time offers, exclusive access, etc.)
2. Create visually appealing Product Hunt listing with eye-catching graphics
3. Build excitement in advance of launch through social media, email campaigns, etc.
4. Plan interactive activities for launch day (e.g. Q&A sessions, live demos, etc.)
5. Collaborate with relevant influencers or bloggers to spread the word
6. Personalize outreach to upvoters and commenters
7. Offer incentives for early adopters (e.g. discounts, bonuses, etc.)
8. Collect and analyze feedback from users to continuously improve the product
9. Celebrate the launch with your team and stakeholders. What are some items that you would add to this checklist? Share your must-have items and tips for a successful Product Hunt launch!
We've seen a lot of growth in AI comment generators lately auto-creating comments and replies based on available info. Do you think apps like these are positive or detrimental to community-focused platforms like Product Hunt? Fwiw, we're aware that many folks are already choosing to use these kinds of services on Product Hunt. We're actively working on ways to address it, but I'm curious how our community feels about this type of engagement. Please vote (and explain your thoughts)!
