I would like to gather a few quality reviews for our product, but I've hit a roadblock. Our users haven't opted-in to marketing emails, so I can't directly reach out to ask for feedback. (UK-based company, we'd be breaking GDPR). After launching on PH, it was recommended that we get more reviews to social proof our product that makes sense! But I've seen brands share some questionable reviews on their websites and I'd rather collect 3-4 genuine ones. Right now, I'm thinking of adding a pop-up or banner inside our web app to ask users for feedback, and I'm slowly building a proper marketing email list for the future. Meanwhile, does anyone have any creative (and ethical) ways to quickly collect a few solid reviews? Would love to hear what worked for the PH community!
I often see this tactic on X (where you can create and host your Live Space) + on YouTube. I think that the very first time I saw it when @_maxblade was streaming. Then more and more people started doing it. IMO, it is a good tactic when you have a powerful fanbase/community on a certain platform. Do you think it is a "strong invitation" to participate in upvoting?
What other (unusual) tactics can help?
The changelog is back! Expect regular updates going forward. This week we have a couple improvements to our launch submission flow.
Arcade interactive demos
The most successful launches tell a compelling story of the product, including showing what the user interface looks and feels like. Arcade allows you to in minutes create a realistic interactive demo that shows off your product's UX.
This adds to our existing storytelling integrations, along with Screenspace (interactive demos) and Loom (videos).
We've released a new landing page that makes it even easier to manage your newsletter subscriptions. And if you're not currently subscribed, be sure to check out all of the different newsletters we have available, like Deeper Learning (what's going on in AI) and Maker Stacks (what apps top makers use, and why).
