Hey PH community, tomorrow we are launching our first product - https://www.producthunt.com/post... on Producthunt. For me, this is the first launch experience.
I think many of you have been or will be in my situation. Tell me how to overcome excitement, not to lose self-control, set priorities correctly and concentrate on what is important?

I'd say have a pre-set plan for tomorrow with key activities to make sure you don't miss anything big.
However, it's really hard to not get carried away once all the feedback and upvotes start coming in. 😄
@sandra_idjoski Thanks! What is the most important thing you would recommend to include in the plan?
@sandra_idjoski @jonathan_nass well said! And share your experience, how do you stay calm? Maybe meditation? 😃
Good luck Sergei! maybe take some time today to list the "must do" actions for tomorrow and whenever u are not sure what to do/where to focus, u can come back to ur list and get back to work:)
For me the opposite to forgetting is writing, might work for u as well :))
@ofirenglin thank you very much! What items should I remember to write down today. What would you suggest? Maybe I'll add your options to my list.
Relax and have fun!) For example, yesterday I felt like it was my second birthday :) Everything you could have done has already been done, so let this day be like a holiday for you!) Good luck with tomorrow's launch!
Launching soon!
We are in the same boat, Sergei. All I would say is best of luck and wishing you a massive success :)
@mjain_mayank Thank you, your support is very nice and needed now. I will be extremely grateful to you if you leave feedback and share your opinion about our project.
Definitely make a plan! If you have someone else on your team, make one of you is always available (especially during the early hours) on launch day to reply to and upvote all comments.
Map out when, where, and with whom you're going to share the launch link. It's a good practice to share it with different subreddits and Slack communities throughout the day so you have a well-balanced flow of engagement.
And remember, it's not make or break — so enjoy the ride! Best of luck.
@jonathan_nass Thanks for the advice, it's very helpful. 🙏
We have already roughly split the roles for tomorrow. Fortunately, we have several people in our great team and we plan to be online 24 hours. 😊
There is a list of potential audiences, but do you have any specific lists, groups or people who might be interested in our ideas?
@sergeipetrov Indie Hackers is always a great resource for a launch. Then there are some Slack communities like Growth Marketing Pros, growmance, and Pigeon Hack
Would be great to read sometime next week what your experience was, how did you split the roles for your team, and what could have been better 🙏
@mjackowski oh, we will definitely write a detailed analysis and sum up the results! When is your launch?
Congratulations, can't wait.
@jerry_m_gallegos Great! Can you give us feedback about our product? How clear is our idea and positioning?
Launching soon!
Just stick to the plan (indeed, you would have one). I will be delighted to support your launch. Wish you a stroke of great luck.
@qudsia_ali Thank you for your support, it means a lot to me! Please leave feedback about our product and idea. I would also appreciate suggestions on how to improve it!
Relax and enjoy some music!
