One of the most effective and affordable marketing strategies is WOM (word of mouth) getting other people to share your product and potentially spark curiosity or create a domino effect.
Over the past few days, several people:
have shared screenshots of my tool on social media, sent me DMs saying they like it, or left reviews on the Chrome Web Store. I plan to use them in: the landing page marketing materials (Chrome Web Store) possibly advertisement and "show off on socials"
Let s get creative. What is that one problem you would love a product solves in the coming year? We have a lot of makers on this platform, let s give them ideas on the problems we face today.
I just got off a brutal call with a prospect we ve been courting for six weeks. They are a mid-sized logistics company, exactly our ideal customer profile. We did the demo, they loved the UI, and the VP of Ops said our automated reporting would save his team hours every week.
Then he asked about the price. When I quoted our standard $3,000/month plan, he went quiet.
An hour later, he emailed me saying they decided to pass. They are going to keep using the Excel spreadsheet their intern built three years ago.
I was shocked. Our product solves the exact pain point they complained about. But when I dug deeper, the reality hit me: their current spreadsheet is "good enough." It s a mess of broken macros and manual data entry, but it costs them $0 in software spend and they already know how to use it. The friction of learning our tool and migrating their data (plus the $36k annual price tag) outweighed the pain of the spreadsheet.
I've noticed that more and more founders are building their personal brand and prioritising it over building their company's brand (the company account then just reposts the founder's thoughts).
A developer published his count in 2026: 47 approval clicks in one Claude Code session, and he admitted he stopped reading around click 12. A dozen heavy users told him the same thing, somewhere between prompt 8 and 25. I recognise it. On a long session the prompts start to look identical, so moving into a folder gets the same yes as deleting one. The yes becomes a reflex. My fix is unglamorous. Anything irreversible goes through a separate step that looks different, and the routine stuff runs without asking. It keeps me reading the ones that matter, which is the whole point of the prompt. At what point in a session do you stop reading the prompts?
I refer to how the UK banned social media for teenagers under 16.
The funny moment was when the BBC News moderator asked the student: How much screen time does she have on the weekend (9 hours) and What will she do with her free time now? (Staring at the wall.)
A similar question was asked on a subreddit. Interested to know what ProductHunters think here. What are your opinion regarding usage of AI in content marketing, image generators, strategy planning, or any other digital marketing areas? Do you think AI will be more powerful than human intervention or there will be a boundary?
Obviously, both are critical for survival. But which one actually moves the needle?
On one hand, you can prepare an incredible go-to-market strategy, but what good is it if your execution falls flat? If you don't have time to be consistent, your messaging is confusing, and your visuals are boring, nobody stays long enough to care about your plan.
