Goal
Design Product Hunt and Bookface visuals to promote our product's new email feature. Gain new leads through interactive prototype demos that highlight the main functions of our email reporting function.
Process
- Interview a team who successfully launched on PH for guidance (we interviewed VimCal)
- Review best practices and examples of other successful launches
- Collaborate with co-founders + engineers to create an walkthrough video
- Animate prototype gifs highlighting each key feature of the email feature
Inspo
I looked at the format and content of other successful PH posts while collaborating with engineers and defining ETC's to determine what to include in our launch considering our timeframe.

Bookface
I also created a visual for our launch on Bookface, a private community for Y Combinator founders.
Slack Updates
This project involved a lot of collaboration between design, engineering, and sales/marketing. As I did with all projects, every time I made a significant change to the design or had a question about the launch, I'd ask directly over Slack or find a time to sync.
