Build relationships before launch

I wrote a little article about the successful launch of Growthhacklist 2.0 - Here are some thoughts what you should do:

1. Join the right community

I can’t tell you which community is the right one for you but joining an active community can be pure gold and can have big effects on your network.

2. Use twitter to connect with people

Not really a surprise but Twitter is one of the best tools out there to connect with people in your niche. For me it is still king for building relationships with people you admire and find interesting.

3. Be helpful

I can’t emphasize this more but being helpful to people is, in my opinion, one of the most important things.

4. Be thankful

You should appreciate the help of other people - even if it is only a Retweet on Twitter or a short mention from someone. Be thankful for it!

5. Include your contacts in things you post online

I try as often as possible to mention people in my posts or tweets, give them credit for their work or help.

6. Engage in forums and discussions

Be active in forums and answer questions or start a new discussion.

7. Connect with people having the same problem as you

There is someone out there who is having or has had the same problem as you. Find those people and connect with them.
