Magnify — Push out beautiful website announcements in 10 seconds.

Tnx @__tosh for hunting us today! Hey hunters 👋 For a while now I wanted to drive some of the traffic from our main website to time-relevant subpages. It’s cases when we have: - 📝a new blog post - 🌟cool new product feature - 📒a fresh new e-book - 👨‍🏫️an upcoming webinar - 👥a bunch of positions to fill - 📆or an event that’s around the corner. In all these cases I didn’t want to change the website itself. I just wanted an easy way publish… something. 📣That’s why we created Magnify. No design skills needed. It’s kinda like writing a tweet. A new announcement is up in 10 seconds. Give it a try and let me know what you think. We’re very early, so any kind of feedback on the landing page, value prop and the product gets extra ♥️.

Put Magnify on a few pages as soon as I saw it. Nice little product!

Pros:

Easy to set up and use.

Cons:

None yet.

Will this be the new rockstar in the world of doormats, pop-ups etc? It is likely... Love the idea of simply offering an easy-to-access intro to "company news" - has a nice honest tone to it. Will you be able to show different kinds of information dependent on different kinds of characteristic of the visitor?

Awesome work Jakob & Gregor! I find Magnify very useful because of it's speed. I’ve been testing it a bit on our website lately and it's without doubt the fastest way we can drive traffic to different parts of our website without doing an extra deploy. In our case it's perfect to drive traffic to a landing page that explains our product in a general way and the show an industry specific feature (we just wrote about in our Intercom-powered Help Center) via Magnify. Also, we used to promote our open positions via a Intercom chat bubble. But honestly, that actually lack a clear CTA. The whole Magnify widget is a large and clear CTA which does the job much better! Best of all, all this can be done by a marketer. Even the installation via Google Tag Manager can easily be done by a marketer. Keep it up!

I'm interested in seeing how this develops!

Pros:

Up and running in minutes. Does what it says on the tin.

Cons:

Would have liked to have added bold to some words and a line break.

Works great, but has some room for improvement. It looks like you touched on some of these already but my initial feedback: - Let us sign up with an account via email (not google) - Needs more advanced targeting (example: only pages with "word" in URL), geo-targeting, etc. - More control when/how often it pops This is a solution I'd loved to have had during our holiday promotions! I like it much better than the header bar or modal from a design and UI perspective.

A more nifty way of promoting things to website visitors. For me Magnify replaces the traditional top bar and some intercom popups (when I rather want a clear CTA instead of chat)

Pros:

Easy to setup, Minimalistic design with clear CTA

Cons:

Lack of possibility to target pages based on "URL contains"

It does one thing, and it does it beautifully. Love this kind of products.

Pros:

Super easy to set up.

Cons:

Not that I can see.

Looks super cool and to the point. Nice with these products that does one thing very well! Will try it out!

In the past I have wanted to share links to a SurveyGizmo (in deph surveys with using advanced logic) via our website... Hotjar was a possible solution for this, but it forced us to use their basic survey tools which didn't match our needs. We ended up having to raise dev tickets to create a pop ups and in the end shared the links in articles and on fb/tw which wasn't great. So glad to find magnify to solve this use case. As well as the ablity to share product updates with users and a solution for cookie messages! Very nice product indeed/

Pros:

Simple - solves an issue we had, sharing likes quickly to website users

Cons:

No multi user access/mutli site set up (yet) but i do hear that they're coming soon

Awesome, love the idea here - I've seen this work very well on classic booking and e-commerce sites, love the idea about taking this promotional aspect of marketing to a broader online marketing context.

fantastic idea! so simple. I created and added an announcement to my site in less than 3 mins.

would be nice to be able to choose the position of my announcement i.e. bottom left, bottom right, etc.

Pros:

easy to use, easy to implement

Cons:

lack of positioning options

I think this is a cool product. Can this be used on WYSIWYG platforms such as Shopify, Weebly, Wix via iFrame?

Love the simplicity of Magnify, great work - there is definitely a need for a tool like this focusing just on announcements instead of capturing emails etc. Super excited to use this tool and looking forward to see even more features being shipped!

Very cool and looks slick. Products like this are great because they nudge you to push announcements more frequently due to easy of use. Great work!

Product like this always tend to be overcomplicated and clunky, but Magnify is slick, non-intrusive and straightforward. Good job. 🙌

Nice UX - question though - why use this over @intercom or @drift? @__tosh @jmarovt @gbelcec

Any idea what the pricing once the beta phase ends?

Seems cool. I was just wondering what the difference between this and something like SleekNote would be?

Nice use of Material UI 4.....very easy and straight forward setup. Love it. Edit: Work on that pricing for sure. The market is saturated right now WP Plugins, Hoversignal, provensrc, socailproof...etc Get people to fall in love with the product before asking them to open their wallet.
