Zack App

I recently saw a marketer with 10k+ followers launch and finish 6th with 348 upvotes. They followed a proper pre-launch and post-launch plan, did everything right, and still the outcome felt unpredictable.

Now I m launching @Curatora next week.

I m not a marketer. I have a little over 1k followers. Of course, asking for support helps. But I also keep hearing that a large part of the Product Hunt community shows up mainly for their own launch, then goes quiet until the next one.

That makes me wonder: how much of success here is strategy, and how much is timing and network effect?

We added two Product Hunt badges to starnus.com.
#1 Product of the Day and #4 Product of the Week.

Feels good having them there. Thanks again to everyone who supported the launch.

Most productivity tools assume the problem is organization.

But from what we ve seen while building Zack, the real friction usually happens somewhere else:

• You capture the task but don t prioritize it.

• You prioritize it but don t act.

• You act but context switches kill momentum.

• You plan but real life reshuffles everything.

So I m curious:
