Driving pre-launch SaaS signups, ideas?
Would love to hear any tips, strategies or places to post pre-launch to help us drive early access signups. Right now we're sitting at less than 100 without having done any promotion, and would love to get this to over a thousands.
Post-launch we will post on all of the usual channels (PH, HN, etc) but pre-launch seems to be hard to generate much buzz.
Would love any insights from anyone that's been in the same spot :)
Here's a link to the landing page https://sizle.io/
Cheers!
If you plan on having public presentations. A cool thing would be to reverse usernames, have seen it work for https://levelteams.com/ he got 5000+ signups.
Also move the main app to app.sizle.io and have a separate marketing site on sizle.io :), it will save you a ton of time and energy now and later on.
Also the site is very slow it scores 43/100 for mobile https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsizle.io%2F&tab=mobile
Changing to other pages takes a long time as well.
Thanks a lot for the tips, especially the page speed insights, I'll do some work to get those scores in the green ;)
Definitely agree with hosting the app on a seperate domain, we've already sorted that one!
Interesting angle with the user name reservations, public presentations aren't something that is currently in our roadmap but it might be something worth considering, thanks for the food for thought :)
