Hi hunters! I'm Manuel, the maker of Maître. Maître comes out of a personal need: make the products I'm working on go viral! I studied the launch of successful products such as MailBox, DropBox and RobinHood (thanks @bentossell for mentioning it) and I realised I could do something similar! I put my head down and after 5 days Maître was born. I beta-tested… See more

@mnlfrgr This looks great. I can't wait to try this when I find a product that suits it.

@msitver Thanks Michael! PS: You should take advantage of our promotion and get unlimited Maître widgets for 3 months for just $24 ;)

@mnlfrgr @bentossell Hi Manuel! This product looks incredible. Question: Your landing page says, "If we finish first in the Tech category at the end of the day, every upvoter gets Maître for $15..." Looks like that's gonna happen. Does this mean we'd all get it for $15 for 3 months? Do you have more details about this deal? You also mention "jumping the queu… See more

@johnrwhaley @bentossell Hi John, sorry if that was confusing! Let me clarify. Maître "retail" price is $49 per widget. You have a chance, every week, to get it for free if you signup to our waiting list (yes, we use Maître :P) and end up in the top 200. The Product Hunt offer works this way: - You can buy 3 months of unlimited widgets today for $24 (50% O… See more

@mnlfrgr I took a risk and bought it. I don't buy many products like this, so keep doing what you're doing.
Manuel Frigerio@mnlfrgr · Maker of @maitre_app / CTO EventNinja.io
@msitver Thanks Michael. I'm sure you won't be disappointed :)
John Proksch-Whaley@johnrwhaley · Hardware & Digital Designer
@mnlfrgr @bentossell Cool! Thanks for breaking that down. Looks like you're clearly on your way to being #1 on ProductHunt by the end of day. Never seen anyone "hack" the #1 spot like this on PH. It's a good way to get people to upvote. Clever!
Michael Sitver@msitver · Curator @ Morning Short, Commute Kit
Yo @mnlfrgr . When I try to create more than one list, it redirects me back to the payment page. This is really annoying (but admittedly a tiny bug, you can probably fix this fast). Let me know when you've got that fixed.
Manuel Frigerio@mnlfrgr · Maker of @maitre_app / CTO EventNinja.io
@msitver Hi Michael, yes that's a glitch! Sorry for that. I'll fix that right now.
Michael Sitver@msitver · Curator @ Morning Short, Commute Kit
@mnlfrgr Thanks.
Michael Sitver@msitver · Curator @ Morning Short, Commute Kit
@mnlfrgr P.S. You should build in GA conversion tracking (when you have time).

@msitver This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing it Michael :)

@mnlfrgr @johnrwhaley @bentossell Hey man, superb idea and project so far! Really impressed. Now my problem is, I bought it for $24, but when I try to add a new list its asking me to pay again. Wasn't I suppose to have 3 months of unlimited? Thanks!
Manuel Frigerio@mnlfrgr · Maker of @maitre_app / CTO EventNinja.io
@dilyaraskar @johnrwhaley @bentossell Hi Dilyar, yes you're right. There is a small glitch in the system that is preventing you from creating multiple waiting lists. I'm fixing it as we speak, I apologies for any inconvenience!
Dilyar Askar@dilyaraskar · Canadian Entrepreneur pioneering;
@mnlfrgr No worries, thanks for the help. Now, once this 3 months passes, how will I decide which one I want to keep? Can I pay $15 now, so that I am guaranteed at least 2 lists? Another suggestion is, I think the price you are giving us now is perfect, the regular price is too high for something like this IMO and may lower sale potential in the future. I re… See more
Manuel Frigerio@mnlfrgr · Maker of @maitre_app / CTO EventNinja.io
@dilyaraskar great feedback. We will think about pricing strategies these days.
Dilyar Askar@dilyaraskar · Canadian Entrepreneur pioneering;
@mnlfrgr Thanks, mind answering the other notes I had made? What should I do? Also when you fix this issue, I would appreciate an update. Thanks!

@mnlfrgr @bentossell Looks like everybody will be getting $15 on maitre. I had a question, also is there anyway to check ur current position in the queue for the users ?
Chema@deambulando · Founder @yclascom @openclassifieds
@mnlfrgr Really cool but you have a huge problem: Any disposable email works... I can jump virtually to the first position in a matter of minutes by automating the email submission. At least disable disposable emails. Please take a look to https://www.producthunt.com/tech...
Manuel Frigerio@mnlfrgr · Maker of @maitre_app / CTO EventNinja.io
@deambulando Hi Chema, this is a valid point, we are going to add that tomorrow (it was already in the pipeline :) ).
