Product Hunt Launch Action Plan Template

In 2022 I hunted more than 20 products on a Product Hunt. I helped established startups with hundreds of users like MarketingMiner and also MVP-stage startups like Nonfik.

Based on this experience, I can tell that not all launches are equal:

  • If you are an early-stage startup with almost no user base, finishing in the top 5 of the day will be challenging, but that doesn’t mean you need to wait to launch on Product Hunt. They allow you to relaunch after 6 months if you have new features, so don’t be afraid to make a launch early on. A launch can be highly beneficial even in the MVP stage, as it will allow new users to collect feedback and iterate on your product.
  • If you are an established startup with hundreds of users, you can make it to the top 5 of the day by leveraging your user base.

Drawing from this observation, I designed a Product Hunt Action Template, which adapts to your situation. Based on a few questions, the template will assign priorities to each task, so you know where to focus your energy:

You can get the free version of my action template here.

The premium version includes:

  • A list of the most relevant Product Hunt topics (you can include only 3 topics in your launch, so pick wisely)
  • A list of Facebook groups that accept posts about the Product Hunt launch
  • Example of copy for social media post
  • 2 customs Phantombuster automation to extract data from Product Hunt.
