Is AppSumo a natural next step after Product Hunt for early-stage SaaS products?
We recently joined @appsumo Radar 🚀, which got me thinking about the role AppSumo plays for early-stage SaaS products after a Product Hunt launch.
My impression is that it's a great opportunity to connect with engaged early adopters who are willing to explore new products, provide honest feedback, and help shape the roadmap while also becoming early customers.
I'm curious how other founders see it.
If you've launched on AppSumo, what was your experience?
Did it help you build a community, improve the product, or acquire long-term customers?
And looking back, what ended up being your most effective channel for acquiring your first paying users?

I have experience launching products on AppSumo after we published them on ProductHunt. AppSumo provided us with deeper insights than ProductHunt. We received real users and feedback, which is quite specific because the AppSumo audience is a niche one. And after using AppSumo, you will still need to figure out how to reach your target audience.
by looks of it appsumo radar doesnt seem like approrpiate like their marketplace or select platform to get lot of sales, https://appsumo.com/products/intrascopeapp/?srsltid=AfmBOorox9BzBpl8fNkFPV1jl3U-mwd38nDy8dEwDY4DICUIU8HDC4Uu im myself in process of submitting my product, so far it shows zero reviews for your product, did you get any sales yet?
