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?
Hi everyone Would love to hear what you did to get your first paying customers outside of your family and friends group. We re about to roll out our product and I m curious what has worked for you. Thanks for sharing
Hey everyone I m Joe and I am the CEO and Co-Founder of LOOFT, which is in short, the world's first comfort service. I just launched for the first time here on Product Hunt and on Crowdfunding... and it is going.. not great, so I am excited to do an AMA here to just get some feedback! I previously taught entrepreneurship at Draper University in Silicon Valley alongside billionare investor Tim Draper, before moving to Germany to work in a venture builder. There I have helped build (or fail ) over 12 startups businesses with the most successful hitting $40M in revenue. Ask me anything about building startups internationally, building a hardware startup as a total and utter underdog, prototyping, the entrepreneurial mindset, the green tech space, or even why I miss mustard from the US... Looking forward to chatting!
Hey, PH community! I'm Mac, a full-time CEO :). In my free time, you can catch me playing basketball and sailing. I used to travel the world, but since I ve got two small kids it s much harder now to pack all stuff into a small backpack ;) Before I founded WebWave, I was a software developer and created websites for clients as a side hustle. I was ace with code, but lacked the imagination and creativity to design great websites. It helped me to realize engineers only slow the process. So I started creating a tool for designers so that they could make websites in a friendly and familiar environment. Since then, we have bootstrapped WebWave to over 500,000 users and 30 employees and now got #1 Product of a week on Product Hunt! Our superpower is that WebWave looks and feels more like a graphic design tool, Figma, Canva, or Photoshop, rather than other website builders. More here:

Next week, I'm very excited to launch my first product on ProductHunt! In the past months, I've been working on a free quiz-maker platform, that helps businesses grow an email list with embeddable quiz widgets. EmbedQuiz is one of the few quiz-maker tools on the market, that provides an unlimited number of responses for free. Previously, I owned a successful software development & web design agency, but I always wanted to work on my own SaaS products as a solopreneur. In August 2022 I took a leap of faith and exited my company to work on my own product. I'm here to answer all your questions!

https://futureoflife.org/open-le... Top artificial intelligence researchers, the co-founder of Apple, and Elon Musk are among signatories of an open letter calling for companies to stop training powerful AIs. They argue that advanced AI could represent a profound change in the history of life on Earth, and companies should not be racing to unleash it. The letter calls for a six-month pause, providing time to decide whether developing things that might outnumber, outsmart, obsolete and replace us is a good idea. Meanwhile, a Goldman Sachs report suggested that generative AIs like GPT-4, the most advanced platform so far debuted, could automate away the equivalent of 300 million jobs, especially in legal and administrative work.
Italy has become the first western country to ban ChatGPT. The Government has cited privacy concerns as a reason for the ban. Could this be a sign for things to come, not just for ChatGPT but AI as a whole?
