How I launched the #2 most upvoted product of all time on Product Hunt

How I launched the #2 most upvoted product of all time on Product Hunt | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

The last 48 hours of my life were total madness. This is what I did.


Since I’m involved with startups on a daily basis, working on product development and (business) strategy, I’ve always been keeping lists of interesting tools and resources that could be interesting to use. Thinking of something I could create, I thought it would be fun to build a simple and useful site that could help makers find resources and tools while building their startup.


The first thing I did was writing down all categories I could think of that would suit a startup’s needs. I ended up with 50, and made a huge Excel sheet where I entered all the stuff I’d already saved. From there on I started collecting more resources and filling up the empty spaces....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

This is a superb story about marketing a start up, lessons and a blueprint to follow for success. Highly recommended for startups, PR and marketing pros. 10/10

Do you know your company's "why"? Think about the core purpose of your business, and then think about how you market your products or services. Are they aligned? As Sinek has found, having loyal customers is all about attracting the people who share your fundamental beliefs. Remember: People don't buy what you do. They buy why you do it.
