We're not going to lie. One of the key places people ask you for help with a PH launch is in LinkedIn DMs (followed by X and email).

Most connections I got were people from Product Hunt, so it is a pity not to use that platform.
I am trying to grow LinkedIn and play with many strategies, among:

• posting several pieces of content per day

• actively comment on other people's posts

• send a certain number of connection requests per day

• do collaborative posts with other creators

• writing LinkedIn articles/newsletters (native feature)

SF is buzzing this week, but the question travels: how do you actually meet the right people (cofounders, investors, collaborators, etc.) without burning the night? What works for me: be visible (present/pitch if possible instant context), be memorable (two-liner like I spent a decade in meetings at Apple left to fix that ), and be intentional (goal: 5 useful connections, 1 investor intro keep moving every 3 5 minutes).

Here's my simple framework:

• Intent Target Ask (why you re here, who you need, concrete next step).

• Anchor to the moment ( What stood out from the talk? ).

• Exit cleanly ( Great chat mind if I send that link tonight? ).
