Hi Makers! This thread is dedicated to you if you are: (1) launching soon or recently launched (2) looking for beta users (3) asking for feedback on a landing page First, start by helping out another maker. You can check out their launch, give their product a review or share a comment on their launch post. Once you've helped someone else out, share your product link here and BE SPECIFIC about who your target audience is and how we can help.

I've always been curious about emerging behaviors and nascent trends. That's one of the inspirations for starting Product Hunt. What niche topic are you obsessed about right now and why?

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?

I ran a similar experiment on Twitter a while ago and realized I should have asked the Product Hunt community. First, some context: I started Weekend Fund in 2017 while I was still the CEO at Product Hunt. Today, @vedika_jain and I write $100K to $300K checks into early-stage startups (most of which launched on Product Hunt at some point). Our background is in product and community building, but we have a network of over 400 LPs across every domain from data science to enterprise sales. More details at weekend.fund. If you're primary KPI (revenue, MAU, etc.) is growing 20%+ for 6+ months, drop me a note with details ryan@weekend.fund. If you have a deck, please share but we'd also love to chat with founders that aren't actively raising but could use our capital and help. :)
