3 Years of PH: What I Learned Supporting 300+ Launches (8 Reached #1)
Hey PH Community! š
Quick question: Why do 90% of launches here struggle to break top 10?
After 3 years as a golden badge holder and advising 8 campaigns to #1 (zero ad spend), I've noticed a pattern...
Most founders treat Product Hunt like posting on social media. Launch and pray.
But the makers who consistently win? They understand PH is about relationships, not features.
The real secret: Your launch day success is determined 30+ days before you even submit.
I just shared my complete 90-day PH strategy on LinkedIn - including:
ā¢ The exact 6-step pre-launch sequence I use
ā¢ How to turn 73% of users into advocates (real data)
ā¢ Hour-by-hour launch day playbook
ā¢ Why personal brand beats product features every time
The post is getting crazy engagement - makers are sharing their own wins and mistakes in the comments.
If you're planning a launch (or want to support others better), you might find it useful.
Drop a comment below if you want the link - happy to share!
