A Product hunt testimony,
“I was surprised when a friend who was an active member promoted my company Fittr as a featured start-up. Still, even without advance preparation, my company made it into the top five posts for the day. That drove tens of thousands of visitors to our landing page, and then a reporter from Yahoo Tech wrote and posted an article about us — which meant at one point we were getting 13 downloads of our app … every SECOND.
As a result, I tend to be a Product Hunt evangelist! “
