Folks,

As Satoshi Notes prepares for launch, I am looking for ways to grow the project, sustain it’s growth and improve it.

The SNS is a good avenue to explore and consider since it allows for the community to participate, invest and tell others about the software.

Besides the documentation on the IC website here:

> **[SNS preparation checklist | Internet Computer](https://internetcomputer.org/docs/building-apps/governing-apps/tokenomics/sns-checklist)**
>
> This guide is intended for informational purposes only and may be modified over time as appropriate. It is aimed to provide general guidance for projects that are planning to launch an SNS but should not be construed as the definitive list of action...

I would appreciate very much any experience reports on the journey to get there, any tutorials or videos, or articles on the subject.

Thanks in advance for any hints, links, experience reports or advice.

Joseph Hurtado  
Founder Granata Consulting  
CTO of Satoshi Notes

P.S. @lara I would appreciate any advice you can offer.

Although no one has replied yet, the online documentation seems to be maintained and is much larger than I expected, which is great news!

If you are also considering an SNS I suggest you start here:

> **[Launching an SNS | Internet Computer](https://internetcomputer.org/docs/building-apps/governing-apps/launching/)**
>
> This section describes the SNS launch process in detail.

Again, I am looking for people who have gone through the process successfully, or are currently doing it, your advice and stories would be most welcome 😉

I think you already found the most relevant documentation!

There is also an OpenChat community called “The DAO Circle” which includes members of a lot of the existing SNSs ([here](https://oc.app/community/ct4wi-oaaaa-aaaaf-bnyeq-cai/?ref=ykzcm-jaaaa-aaaaf-anwpq-cai)), maybe this is also a good place to find people who went through the process already.  
It might help if you can add there (or here on the forum) more specific questions that you might have…

Thanks Lara, nice to hear from you!

I will join Open Chat, and start reading the extensive documentation, I was unaware so much got written the last year.

Have a wonderful week!
