Spamming! most of teams really makes me disturbing because of sending same message again and again.

@mahsum_akbas Where did they send those message? I think I barely meet those message cuz ProductHunt do not have message feature.

@sylvia_sheng since I have Twitter and LinkedIn in profile, they send over there. sometimes it is so irritating. because, for some products entire team members send message again and again request for upvote etc.
Don't overthink, launch doesn't have to happen once. Just launch, make some iterations launch again and again and again as you need to.

@slimmy82 That is very insightful. This gives me more confidence in launching. I have been worrying about it the past 2 weeks. Thank you!

Don't launch your product before it's ready. Don't rush the launch process and cut corners. Make sure your product is polished and bug-free before you put it out there.
Don’t wait for it to be perfect! There are so many situations and use cases you cannot precinct. Make sure to launch a first bug free version with clear instructions on how it is supposed to work. Then iterate based on user feedback. This last one will make the difference.

@losid Great tip! Do you mind checking our product or trying it out and give me as many feedback as you can :-)

Make sure your product is beyond Beta level. Sometimes I tried some products which is still on Alpha level, it even cannot be used.
