• Build a qualified list of Product Hunt users from your LinkedIn network
• Set up automated campaigns that convert 37% of your outreach into actual voting pledges
• Create a launch day activation system targeting only pre-qualified supporters
• Position yourself to collect 100+ confirmed votes while maintaining Product Hunt's quality standards </aside>

Step 1: Understand the Product Hunt competition landscape

Recognize what you're up against: Product Hunt receives 130k daily visits, making it the top community for new tech products. However, 20-40 products compete every single day for the coveted "Product of the Day" title in an intense 24-hour battle.

Decide between email and LinkedIn for your outreach approach:

We recommend LinkedIn over email because:

• 1:1 LinkedIn conversations have far more impact than emails
• Product Hunt removes votes if they detect spammy mass emailing

The winning strategy: Two campaigns - one to gather pledges 15 days before launch, another to activate supporters on launch day.

But remember: You're limited to 250-300 LinkedIn messages per day, so targeting matters.

Step 2: Extract and qualify your LinkedIn network

Target the right people: Contact your 1st-degree LinkedIn connections who already have Product Hunt accounts. Product Hunt removes votes from inactive accounts created less than 7 days ago.
