Ph Community Outreach

You're launching on Product Hunt and need to spread the word without getting banned or looking like a spammer. This walks you through Reddit, Indie Hackers, Hacker News, and niche communities with platform-specific templates, timing strategies, and the critical "be a member first" rules. It includes actual subreddit lists with subscriber counts, post templates you can adapt, and a pre-launch checklist for building karma before you need it. The guidance is practical: it tells you to participate for 2-4 weeks beforehand, explains why HN will eat you alive if you're not technical enough, and gives you the "show your numbers" template that works on Indie Hackers. Use this if you're doing a proper launch and want community amplification that doesn't feel gross.

Product Hunt Community Outreach

Workspace Context

Read bootstrap context before asking questions: strategy/brand.md for brand, audience, offer, channels, tools, constraints, and metrics; about/me.md for personal voice; content/ideas.md and content/calendar.md for content planning. Use legacy product-marketing context files only as fallback. Save generated drafts to content/<platform>/drafts/YYYY-MM-DD_short-topic-slug.md, and route durable learnings back to strategy/brand.md, about/me.md, or content/ideas.md.

Operating Contract

This skill is self-contained for its frontmatter scope: use its local instructions, references, scripts, and assets as the playbook; ask only for missing task-specific inputs; hand off to adjacent skills instead of expanding scope; and return an actionable artifact, decision, plan, draft, or diagnostic.

This skill helps you leverage online communities to amplify your Product Hunt launch while maintaining authenticity and following community guidelines.
