LinkedIn

A launch post that reads like an operator letter can outperform a board for B2B. The graph is the channel. Cold company pages rarely move.

LinkedIn is where B2B buyers already spend time. A founder-account post with a specific story — who the product is for, a screenshot, a number — can reach hiring managers, operators, and practitioners who will never open Product Hunt.

TrustRadius

Buyers who want paragraphs, not stars. Harder to fill, valuable when you do. Not a launch board.

TrustRadius emphasizes in-depth software reviews. Getting ten of those is harder than getting ten G2 stars. When they exist, they are the kind of text assistants quote because it contains actual workflow detail.
