What would you consider to be authentic?

I have been following a few launches lately, I see the comments and wonder what would you consider to be authentic? Like a ChatGPT generated comment with a really good prompt, sounds like it has human touch but it's not authentic for sure. What do you think defines authenticity?

Waitlist or no waitlist?

For many product hunt launches, I have seen people utilise waitlists while some launch right away. What is better? With waitlist or without waitlist? I think waitlist builds anticipation and helps you regulate the amount of people using the product but direct access lets you test the scale that your product can handle.

When do you start?

How do you strategize what is the priority in terms of building vs branding, and how to effectively do it? I feel the most effective way is to do both simultaneously because it takes time to build as well as establish a brand. But what have you tried and how has it worked for you?

2 years at a fast paced start up is greater than 10 years at a large corporate. Agreed?

The experience you gain at a fast paced start up is far more superior than the experience you gain at corporate, sometimes it's simply exponential in nature. I have felt is myself having worked at a start up and a corporate through my career! Have you gone through that experience as well? What are your thoughts?

Is building community sometimes harder than building the product itself?

Everyone talks about building communities around product that you have up and coming, but I think sometimes building community becomes way harder than building the product itself. Let's face it, it's hard to get early believers and adopters. I think getting people's time is harder than investing your own time, what have you experienced?

Is community more effective than social media?

We talk about building community around products to be able to launch and have the early support. But if it came to either using time to support and build the community vs building social media traction, which is more effective in your opinion?

What makes a community successful?

Hey Everyone, I have been working to help community builders build successful communities but I wanted to know what success means to you when you build your community. For me community has been about mainly about a few core aspects 1. Bringing people together to resonate on a common goal. 2. Making it a place where each person gets to discover and learn more. 3. Make it a place where everyone...
