Hey everyone,

Im Greg, a full stack developer and jr data analytics engineer. I'm preparing to launch my first SaaS after making 10 or 12 products that are in limbo and or abandoned.
I'd love to meet more marketing professionals and community builders than I have in my development circles. I've done marketing and creatives for others before, but never for my own venture. Its different when you are starting from scratch! Hoping this community can help me make my product launch successful. Its a wonderful product that Im very proud of, but with all this time coding and writing tests Ive spent very little time thinking about how to get people to try it.
Im thinking about offering some free 3 month subscriptions or something to anyone who tries it out in the first few months. During that time id be building out my enterprise features more. Does anyone have experience with successful soft launches like that? Or like.. a tiered launch for different market scaling?

Two months ago, I'd never heard of Product Hunt. When I told people we were launching @AI Context Flow here, they told me to keep my expectations in check.

Fast forward to today: #1 Product of the Day and #1 Productivity Tool of the Week.

The journey was chaotic, humbling, and honestly surreal. If you'd told me this would happen, I wouldn't have believed you.

To everyone who upvoted, commented, and cheered us on: Thank you. Your support means everything and keeps us building.

I ve spent the last few years working closely with sales teams, and one thing never changes, we often start talking too soon.

A potential customer shares one small detail, and we immediately jump into explaining, pitching, or convincing.
But the truth is: most people don t need more information, they just need to feel understood. When we slow down and listen really listen the conversation changes completely. They open up. They tell you what s actually holding them back. And suddenly, closing the deal isn t about persuasion anymore, it s about alignment.
