This launch beat that by 3.9 times. It ranks 136 of 479 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 2 times the median of 688K views.
The response was thin for the reach: 836 bookmarks, 195 replies, 127 quotes and 92 reposts against 1K likes. Views arrived from people outside the audience the product is for, and they kept scrolling.
It starts “Today we're announcing @lightfld's $47M Series A led by @a16z to reimagine CRM as a world model of…”, a first-person opening that the founder-account launches in the directory use most.
It carries a 2:08 video against a directory median of 65 seconds. Videos over 90 seconds have a median of 651K views in the directory.
The copy runs 48 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41. The body carries a link, so the post had somewhere to send the reader and paid a little reach for it.
It went out on a Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 721K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
