Hashtag Slayer

It’s just past midnight, and my wife, @Danica Pierce and I are hard at work. Why? Because when the clock struck twelve, it was time to launch Hashtag Slayer: the struggle-free Instagram hashtag tool on Product Hunt!

A few weeks ago, we made the “trending startup” list on Beta List. Now, we’re launching on Product Hunt for one last chance at making a splash in the early-adopter scene before moving on to more targeted marketing.

Check it out and let us know what you think!!

We’d love to hear your feedback :)

We've had more than 40 people sign up since our BetaList launch last week, but the very first customer was someone I know from my coaching business.

Since I know the woman who signed up, she a) trusted me to provide value, and b) felt comfortable enough to reply to almost every single one of the automated emails she received, where she asked questions, shared suggestions, and told me personally how excited she was to try the product.

I 100% believe a strong network is the key to success and this launch has gone so much smoother because of the legwork that was done before we even had the idea for the product.

Lesson: Don't compartmentalize your products/network too much. Your network is your most valuable asset! They already like and know you, so showing them they can trust you to provide value is so much easier than starting from scratch.

Today's our first day really testing some eyeballs on our new product, Hashtag Slayer.

After reading the acquisition channel report by @zerotousers where he quoted the success that @biku7 had with Grumpy Text:

"We got 257 visitsfrom our BetaList launch (predominately from the US, UK, and Western Europe) and landed26 subscribers. Overall, it was a great success and I feel like we got much more out ofBetaList than if we had invested in Facebook Ads or something similar at this stage."

With a quote like that, how could I not give it a shot?

So far today we've seen 70 visits, and 8 sign ups.

So if you've got a minute, check out our post on BetaList.
And if you like it, give us a like!

Thanks, IH :)

After months of development, we’ve opened the doors to Hashtag Slayer — we’d had a close circle of testers for the last two months, but now anyone can sign up!

It all started back in the summer when my co-founder (and wife) Danica, built a simple spreadsheet to help her clients with Instagram growth. But as soon as I saw it, I knew that it was too powerful to stay that way.

Soon, we got deep into understanding Instagram’s API, and turned Hashtag Slayer into a robust tool help influencers and entrepreneurs grow their accounts safely and easily.

After months of testing with our inner circle, we’re excited to open sign up to the public!
