How do you collect feedback from beta users before your PH launch?

I have launched on PH twice but before launching, I always prefer to share the product with at least 20 potential users over DM. The goal is to get early feedback and testimonials. This helps me understand what s working (or not) in the copy, design, offer, value proposition, etc.
Based on those early insights, I iterate quickly and it could be small tweaks or full rewrites, depending on what people are saying.

To make it easy for them to say yes and share feedback, I create a no-brainer offer (like 70 90% discount) and DM potential users on X asking for feedback.
What s your pre launch strategy for collecting feedback and improving your product before launching on PH?
P.S. Here s a sample DM I use to get early feedback for Boringlaunch:
Hey [User Name]

We ve just launched (product name) for [Industry/Category/Domain/Target Audience]

It might be a great fit for your [product name].

What tool do you use for maintenance of work-life balance?

Sometimes I have problems with work-life balance: most of the time I overwork. And I thought, maybe some tools can help with it. Can u share your favorite tools and explain how they help with your work-life balance?

How do you grow a community around the product?

We all know that a community can increase sales and grow the product. But it s hard to make people interested in the product before it is launched. How do you unite people in a community and stir up interest?

Why do you work at a startup?

Hey hunters! There are a lot of startupers here. And it is interesting for me why people choose to work for a startup. Personally, I like opportunity to learn something new everyday. My work is quite flexible so my responsibilities could change. And I really like it! What about you? Why have you decided to work at a startup? What is your favorite part of working for a startup?

Which is more productive for you: working from home or the office?

I'm very productive when I'm in the comfort of my home but there are days I find the structure of an office beneficial. I guess working hybrid makes me the most productive
