How do you engage with the Product Hunt community before your launch?

@sentry_co But there's no other way to talk to PHunters other than discussion here in community - right? No DM's etc?

@sentry_co Very nice! Any tips for our new PH friends here for that?

@austinarmstrong I dunno. Support great products, esp the ones that are not "scale-pumped by the SaaS bro mafia" 😬 usually there are really awesome projects bellow top10 as well. Show them some love. You might be surprised.

@abbas143official couldn't have said it better, the community is the core behind any good product's launch, here's to our own launch as well :)

@abbas143official couldn’t agree more. It ultimately boils down to the value you’re adding to the community. And doing it with the intention of actually bringing something to the table and not just as a means to promote your own launch :)

@abbas143official I wanted to write exactly the same 😅

@abbas143official All great points and thing sthat everyone should really practice. have you noticed that there are fewer bots in PH now? or are they still here?

@austinarmstrong Yes! Bots are on every platform, and here I'm sure bots are trapped everyday by PH algorithm / team.

@busmark_w_nika would love to hear what other platforms can be used and ways to engage on those. Thanks!

@namrata_arya LI, Twitter but also WA and Discord groups/channels :) Reddit as well.

@busmark_w_nika interesting! I’ll check these out 🙌 thank you so much for sharing this

@busmark_w_nika Right on point with being active in other platforms! We have to bear in mind that we have to be flexible and ready to reach out to different people (founders, users, critics, etc.). And that their feedback all matters

@austinarmstrong What platforms besides PH do you communicate your launches, journey etc? :)

@umar_saleem Totally agree on this. i have accounts and channels everywhere. It's actually fun meeting new people and interacting with different personalities

@austinarmstrong That's great! Can you share some PH communities over any platform?

@umar_saleem @austinarmstrong 🔥 that list is awesome!

@julia_engelsmann Love your energya and your 100% efforts! And I completely agree with this. If an individual needs to engage, he or she should do it with full efforts, not halfway through it only.

@salar__davari Glad to know that. Sharing tips and strategies is not the cup of tea of everyone nor is it something others are willing to do. I love sharing all the things that have made me successful. You can actually see it in all my SM channels and accounts

@glipsman Are you launching soon my friend?
