A launch is a conversation, not a link drop.

The strongest channel is still people who love the product enough to share it. Earn that before scaling the post count.

  1. 01

    Choose three channels

    Start where your actual users gather, not where the biggest vanity number lives.

  2. 02

    Learn the room

    Read the rules and recent posts. Contribute before asking for attention.

  3. 03

    Tell the useful story

    Share the problem, the tradeoffs, and what you learned. Let the product link be the proof.

Your first users are already somewhere.

Find the right room, bring something useful, and start the conversation.
