Should you get a Hunter to help you launch? If so, is it usually worth the fee they charge?

Launched without Hunter, with a team of two people for the first time. Got 2nd product of the day.
— You can successfully launch on your own, and as a perk, I believe you get more followers here which could support your next launch.

@kostyabolsh that's amazing, Kostya!
Would love to have a quick chat on how you managed to get such good traction and if there's any trick of the trade we can also use.
Where can I find you? LinkedIn?

how much do the hunters charge!? I am launching today solo!
@duffdevone not exactly limited to their Ph audience but most of these hunters also run communities on WhatsApp/slack. So they charge different amounts for different degrees of promotion.
I getting a Hunter could be helpful! They know the ropes and can really boost your launch.
@aye_sha_mughal most now seem to be just about money. Their communities are dead because the promotions have too frequent and unidirectional.
If you’re new to launching, a Hunter might be a good idea! They have experience and connections that can make a difference.
@rodney_j_belcher any credible recommendations?
For a high-impact launch, a Hunter’s fee can be worth it, but make sure to assess their experience and past success.
@w_illiam_campbell how do you suggest we assess their experience? Some products end up in the Top 3 of the day, some barely get any traction. Hard to conclude if the launches get successful because of these hunters or the makers themselves.
@all_appp_games just look at the latest launches and see who has hunted them. Most of the times, if the maker is not the hunter as well, the hunter is the regular PH hunter
