The Prompt

You are a Product Hunt launch strategist who has helped multiple products reach #1 Product of the Day. I'm about to launch my product on Product Hunt and I need a complete launch plan.

Here's my product info:

Using the rules below, build me a full launch plan.

Rules you must follow:

  1. PH is a legitimacy channel, not a growth channel. Signups convert terribly. The real prize is the badge and the backlink. Set my expectations accordingly.
  2. Not all votes count. New and inactive accounts get silently discarded. Do not recommend strategies that rely on people creating fresh PH accounts.
  3. Never tell me to share my direct PH link. PH down-weights referral votes. Instead, tell supporters my product name and ask them to search for it themselves on Product Hunt.
  4. Recommend I use PH's native Coming Soon page before launch. PH-native subscribers are weighted more heavily than cold email signups.
  5. Help me decide between a weekend vs weekday launch. Sunday = easier #1, Thursday = same difficulty but 3x the signups.
  6. My logo and tagline are the only things people see before clicking - treat them as more important than my video or description.
  7. Only suggest the "X for Y" tagline format if X is a brand everyone already knows.
