Finished build weekend. Here’s how it went 👇🏼

Hey Indiehackers,

Last week I decided to do a build weekend.

My idea for the build weekend was to curate all the launch strategies I've got from interviewing 15+ makers who ranked top 3 on Product Hunt,

And build a Product Hunt Launch guide for makers.

Here's how it went:

Saturday:
I started on Saturday and worked on it for over 10+ hours.

I went through all the interviews, curated the content and listed all of them step by step. So, 50% of the work is done by Saturday.

Sunday:
As the content is done, I started working on the design on Sunday.

I spent almost 5 hours and 75% of the design was completed by Sunday evening.

But I failed to finish it within the weekend due to personal reasons.

And these tasks were left:

  1. Illustrations
  2. Color palette and
  3. Bonus resources section

Today:
I finally worked on those 3 things and completed building the launch guide.

I know I couldn’t complete the build weekend as planned, But I'm still happy with what I achieved.

As, If I didn’t have a deadline like this, I would have 100% procrastinated and taken at least 2 weeks.

What's in the guide:
In this product hunt launch guide, I’ve added:

  1. 10+ steps for a successful product hunt launch
  2. Winning strategy of 15+ makers who ranked top 3 on Product Hunt
  3. Bonus resources to prepare for product hunt launch

What's next:

  1. Share the guide on SM platforms and communities
  2. Launch on Product Hunt
