Need Advice: How to do reddit marketing?
Hi,
I am currently focusing my energy on finding early 20 customers for my product (https://www.hiretheverified.com) using content marketing.
First, I am focusing on Reddit. I have read the numerous post on IH and figure out the following way to excel:
- Figure out the subreddit related to your product
- Engage on selected subreddit via writing post or comment on the post. Don't write about your product directly.
- Once you got enough Karma, then write about your product. Tell A story rather than just posting the link.
Do you guys have any other suggestions? How should I do marketing using Reddit?
Thanks in advance for your time.

Hey Ankur,
Reddit is a super powerfull platform to get your first users. But you shouldn't consider it as a whole, all subreddit has his own policy. Some allows you to post directly without any karma, some don't. Some allows self promo, some hate it.
20 customers isn't that big. Find the subs that allows you to promote and see what happens!
If with these auto-promo post you can't get 20 users, then, yes, you should start create some content and get traffic from it. But it's more a second step IMHO

Reddit is not my single point to do content marketing. I am focusing on Linkedin, Blog, IH, Reddit and Product Hunt and Hackernews for launching.
Thanks I will checkout spreadtheworld.net

Thanks for suggesting.

Exactly. Same I am trying to do. I am thinking to engage with the audience as much as can and understand how can I add the value.
