Some of this you've already heard in other posts, but since I'm figure you're hungrily looking at all these posts to help yourself out, I'll give some bulleted advice at the risk of repeating:
1) Get an editor. You may be a great coder, but you're not the best copywriter. Neither am I. So I don't write my own product copy. It will do wonders for your product's image.
2) Video / screencast / visually show me the product without having to sign up for Beta. I'm busy and words take too long to read.
3) This might be nit-picky, but the name really puts me off. It's the Z, man, it hurts.
4) Does your software solve a problem? If so, can you explain the problem to me in two sentences? I still don't understand as I don't use Slack, even though I know what it is.
Best of luck to you. I hope to hear about your acqui-hire or buyout soon enough.
