Name drop the products that make your product awesome
In your next launch, you can highlight up to 3 products that were indispensable in building your product, along with a note explaining why you love them. They'll also be notified that you gave them a Shoutout, in case they'd like to support your launch.
I love the special moment when I discover a new product that makes me feel like, WOW, this was built just for me. You know it when it happens because it makes your work and/or life exponentially more enjoyable — and it’s even more delightful when they continue to solve new problems that you didn’t even realize you had!
I often show my love and obsession for these products by doing things like sending fanmail full of emojis and gratitude, volunteering my time as a beta tester, sharing lots of live feedback etc. (Maybe some of this sounds familiar to others as well. <3)
Sometimes, a shoutout on social media, especially for those without a huge reach, can feel like such a fleeting moment that can be easily forgotten, overlooked or lost in a sea of competing posts for virality.
This is why I am pumped for Shoutouts to be our first segue into creating a space on Product Hunt for makers to publicly share this love (and healthy obsession!) with products in a way that is meaningful, will persist and create more value over time for both the products giving and receiving the shoutout.
Try it out, support your fave products and makers and share your feedback with us! We’re just getting started and look forward to exploring how Shoutouts can continue to help us create the kind, uplifting community Product Hunt is known for.
