Skill #92 — Beta Launch & Waitlist Campaign Generator

Category: Product Marketing / Launch Strategy
Pricing: $29 one-time | $19.99/month
ClawHub Handle: max_0x1
Status: Ready for submission

What This Skill Does

Generates a complete pre-launch campaign system for SaaS products, apps, hardware, courses, and communities — from the first teaser to launch day to early-access upgrade.

Most products fail before they launch because founders skip the pre-launch phase. This skill builds the audience before the door opens: waitlist landing page, email countdown sequence, Product Hunt launch kit, and early-access nurture sequence — all in one system.

4 Prompts

Prompt 1 — Waitlist Landing Page Copy (FREE)

Complete above-the-fold and below-the-fold copy for a waitlist/coming-soon page.

Output includes:

  • Headline (6 variants: outcome, curiosity, pain, social proof, FOMO, bold claim)
  • Subheadline (3 variants)
  • Above-fold paragraph (2 versions: short/punchy and long/narrative)
  • 3-benefit bullet block with proof points
  • Social proof section (testimonial placeholders + stats to gather)
  • FAQ section (5 questions from skeptical prospects)
  • Footer CTA with urgency framing
  • Email opt-in microcopy (label + placeholder + button text + GDPR note)
  • Meta title + meta description (160 chars) for SEO

Free because: Every founder building in public needs this. It's the hook that feeds every other prompt.

Prompt 2 — 6-Email Countdown Campaign

A sequenced waitlist email series from signup to launch day.

Output includes:

  • Email 1 (Day 0 — Confirmation): Welcome + what's coming + what they unlocked
  • Email 2 (Day 3 — The Problem): The pain your product solves, with a story frame
  • Email 3 (Day 7 — Behind the Scenes): What you're building and why it matters
  • Email 4 (Day 14 — Social Proof Stack): Early tester quotes, beta results, waitlist count
  • Email 5 (Day 21 — Founder Story): Why you built this, the moment of truth
  • Email 6 (Launch Day): Access is open — 3-day early-bird price + urgency
  • 3 subject line variants for each email (A/B test ready)
  • Preview text for each email
  • Optimal send times by email client behavior

Prompt 3 — Product Hunt Launch Kit

Full Product Hunt campaign assets for a top-10 finish on launch day.

Output includes:

  • PH tagline (60 chars max) — 5 variants with hook analysis

  • First comment (maker comment) — 300-400 words: story, what you built, who it's for, ask

  • Upvote-ask DM sequence: 3 messages (warm network / cold community / email blast)
  • Twitter/X launch thread (8-10 tweets with hook)
  • Slack/Discord community announcement (2 versions: member-facing and partner-facing)
  • 24-hour war-room playbook: hourly checklist, response scripts for comments, when to push for upvotes

Prompt 4 — Early Access Nurture + Upgrade Sequence

Turns free beta/early-access users into paying customers.

Output includes:

  • Day 0: Welcome + setup guide (activation email with first-win checklist)
  • Day 2: Quick-win tip (habit-forming use case, not a feature dump)
  • Day 7: Power user secret (advanced workflow, positions upgrade as next logical step)
  • Day 14: Upgrade ask — 3 variants:
    • Outcome frame ("what would you do with 10x capacity?")
    • Social proof frame ("what paying users are doing now")
    • Urgency frame ("early-access pricing ends in 7 days")
  • Day 30: Anniversary email + testimonial request + referral ask
  • Churn rescue: 2 re-engagement emails for users who went dark after Day 7
