Nuu

@rrhoover Hi Ryan. On Nuu we send a weekly digest listing places opening over the next 7 days, in the cities you follow. We also send a daily digest for any new places added the previous day. Perhaps we should roll that up into the weekly mailer (or at least have the option) so you aren't getting mailed too frequently.

@shylands ahh, I missed that! I'd suggest making the email subscription CTA very obvious. We promote our email digest at the top of Product Hunt and receive hundreds of new subscribers daily. Email is a big part of what makes PH work.

@rrhoover Yeah you’re right we need to make it more obvious. Part of our challenge is only providing users with places in locations that are of interest to them. We’ve tried to deal with this by building functionality allowing users to follow cities (and in the near future neighbourhoods). So we need more info than just their email address for them to get true value from Nuu. We definitely still need to perfect our signup flow. Thanks for the feedback!

@vivekmgeorge Thanks! We feel there’s a need for a great platform that provides a single goto resource to find new places in your area, and at the same time, help new places announce and market themselves to their target audience of typical early adopters. This is mainly done via Twitter/FB/Instagram/blog features but reaching the right people can be tricky. We have the concept of an opening date for every place added, so you can add your place before launch and followers of its city will be notified when it opens. In the future we’ll be looking at ways to †allow places on Nuu to stay engaged with their followers. For example enabling owners to notify customers of what is new in their place on a given day (food specials, beer on tap etc).

@michaelchamkin Thanks! The content is user generated. "Coming soon" places are often added before there is any other online presence. We also have a mobile app in development that will make it much easier for users to add new places they spot, out and about.
