Hey Product Hunt community! I'm sharing my top 6 learnings from our recent pre-launch and launch on this incredible platform. The support and engagement we are receiving is phenomenal, and I want to express my gratitude to each and every one of you. Here are the key learnings I've gathered from this memorable experience: 1 Reciprocal support: The Product Hunt community is a passionate and active one and we must give affection back. Do not expect feedback or upvotes if you don't give it back. 2 Be yourself: and don't pretend to be perfect. Open and honest communication resonated with the community, fostering trust and genuine interactions. 3 Expert support: start early to look for support from experts or industry professionals that have launched before. They are key for an anticipated launch and help you to organize everything in advance. 4 Amplifying Impact: leverage your own community to reach an audience. If you don't have it because you are starting, look for partners, friends, and family. BUT 5 Give yourself time in advance. Do not rush the launch. Building an audience requires time. 6 Teamwork - If you can, get support from your team. All the time. Wishing you all an amazing launch and if you are curious, here's our product: https://www.producthunt.com/post... All the best PH community!

Hey everyone, Just wanted to drop a quick chat about leadership in the ever-evolving world of web3 startups. 1. Transparency: Make sure your team knows what's going on. Building trust is vital. We had some difficult decisions to make, we tried our very best to communicate to all. Not just the good things but especially our shortfalls. 2. Stay Agile: Things change fast. Adapt and move quickly. 3. Promote learning: The tech's always changing. Make sure your team keeps up. Web3 is bonkers - I mean who can keep up? 4. Give credit: Recognize hard work. It fuels motivation. Our team had done amazing work in building our voice in the PH community! 5. Think long-term: Startups are marathons. Short-term wins are cool, but focus on the bigger picture. Like here one product hunt we hope for a great result but in the grand scheme of things it is one tactic in the overall strategy. 6. Well-being is key: Avoid burnout. Healthy teams are the best teams. We had a few people burning out and it s a mindset difference. There is more to the world where you just don t need to carry the weight of the world for missing a milestone. What's worked for you? What hasn't? Let's get this discussion going. Cheers to shaping the web3 world, one step at a time.
