I thought it w'd be good to share my journey and insights from our first launch on PH, which happened just two weeks ago!
Launch Day ✨
We decided to launch on the same day as the GITEX Africa event, thinking it would be a great opportunity to gain more traction.
Spoiler: probably not a good one.
I stayed up late 😴 to prepare for the product launch and event, also tp record a walkthrough video for Devinstock. The excitement kept me going all the night to add more fixes to the product landing page.
The morning, we took flight and arrived early to Marrakech 🌅, grabbed a quick lunch, checked in to the hotel, and rushed to the event to register. This left us with little time to engage with the community for support and upvotes.
Meeting people at the event was good! But it was tough to gather as many upvotes as you'd hope of you want natural conversations. We missed out on some visibility early but were in the end we it to the featured section!
Offline discussion proved more effective 🤝 than the online launch! We offered a few lifetime deals for our growth plan, and the face-to-face connections paid off, may be because of the nature of the product dedicated to b2b professionals.
Anyway, launching on Product Hunt wa very benifficial to us. The preparations, community feedback, connections, and SEO referals are invaluable in the long run.
🔧 What’s Next?
We’re committed to continuous improvement for Devinstock and have some exciting updates in the pipeline. Stay tuned for what’s coming next!
Thank you for your support !

Sounds like your launch journey was a rollercoaster ride, but hey, at least you got featured in the end! Remember, launching a product is like debugging code - you learn, you iterate, and you eventually ace it! Keep rocking with Devinstock!
