I'm Elif, Co-founder and CEO of BeforeSunset AI. We became the product of the day, week, month. AMA

@randallkaplan We've received lots of feedback—ranging from bug reports and suggested improvements to insights on how we can enhance our solution for daily planning. The most invaluable aspect lies in observing the community's response to Beforesunset AI and understanding their expectations for what more it can offer.

@olearningcurve Curious too! BTW, cool product and notified! Mine is powered by openAI, and you are more than welcomed to leave your support:)

@flora_wu Nice! Your product sounds cool as well. I used OpenAI through Langchain to build my database. The product itself has two modes - one powered by OpenAI and the second one is not.

@olearningcurve Thank you, Luke! Actually, we had ongoing marketing efforts. We announced our launch with a press release and on all our social media platforms.

@zekiye_nur_kesici What was your form of press release and how did you draw attention to it?

@olearningcurve @zekiye_nur_kesici did you have a dedicated person or team for Marketing, I am a co-founder, there is just 2 of us at the moment so wondering do I try to market myself or get some help!

@italo_costa Thank you, Italo! We planned our launch assets two months ahead of time. We put a lot of effort into our videos and content. We made a concerted effort to make them stand out by producing everything in a way that reflects our brand and draws attention to the homepage. We reached out to a lot of product hunters as a team. We announced our launch via social media. We used a press release to announce the launch of our product. These are things to came to my mind, you can ask your questions if there are any. 🙌

@mani_abod Thank you, Abdul! Apart from our ongoing marketing activities, we are conducting advertising activities in order to maintain the momentum we have achieved. We're trying different marketing channels.

@alex_chepovoi While I can't be 100% sure, I do know that upvote values have to do with the profile. In Product Hunt, the upvote value of an active account, the number of followers, the number of streaks, and an account with more points are different from the upvote value of a newly opened account.

@zmiro cool product and notified! Mine is powered by openAI, and you are more than welcomed to leave your support:)

@zmiro As a marketing team, we used a daily time-block strategy to reach out to people. We used to hold small team competitions and award a prize to the person who reached the most people, which increased team motivation.

@sophiko_jeiranashvili Teamwork and collaboration is essential for a great product hunt launch. Small competitions can be organized to engage and motivate your team.

@aditi_rao1 cool product and notified! Mine is powered by openAI, and you are more than welcomed to leave your support:)

@razzaq_abdul The night before the launch, there was a major problem with the product, and Elif had to stay awake for that problem. She had been awake for about 45 hours by the day of the launch.

@profy17 Try to find motivating and fun ways to involve your team as much as possible in preparing for the launch process, it is definitely teamwork. Preparing launch assets is also important. You should engage with the community to get the most out of it.

@elifduran @rahul_aluri cool product and notified! Mine is powered by openAI, and you are more than welcomed to leave your support:)

Thanks @flora_wu you are building something super interesting! Got notified. Would love to support :)

@elifduran @rahul_aluri Time-blocking strategy for the product hunt launch process. We tried time-blocking for outreach and it both motivated us as a team and increased our efficiency.

@gican_petrescu I believe it is critical to interact with the product hunt community. If you want to benefit from the community, you should engage with the community. Reaching out to product hunters to ask for their feedback and support, well-prepared launch assets, and teamwork are crucial in a successful product launch.
