Reddit is underrated
Hi, do you know about Reddit and how it is a great channel for generating B2B leads. Not only that, people have grown their business 10x with Reddit.
here is a blog that I wrote about the untapped potential of Reddit Marketing - https://blogs.promotee.co/reddit-marketing-the-untapped-potential-for-your-business-30f43de7c2b1

Trending on Indie Hackers
Reddit is one of the most toxic websites on the web. That site is almost worst than 4chan
I have very different experience from groups about startups to groups about parenthood.
Example groups: daddit, desksetup, startups, typescript
Interesting, share you experience?
I found redit confusing and full of trolls
I agree that for some people the experience can be brutal. But I think once you start going to it the right way, you'll see way better.
Fine, would be better to hear some concrete cases and examples.
Sure, I'll put up a blog for that.
If you look at specific niche subreddits, is very great.
Right, and able to target multiple subreddits is even better
I agree, for the first website I sold all of my initial users came from Reddit
Yeah, it is an ideal place to find early adopters.
The only success I’ve ever had posting on Reddit is by writing a blog post and posting an interesting fact from it to r/TIL. All other experiences have been extremely toxic
So did you go about it?
As a heavy Reddit user for years, I can confirm that Reddit is both fantastic and horrible for marketing.
I published a free Spotify playlist application and promoted it on Reddit and received over 2000 users in 24 hours.
However, many other businesses fail gloriously because they don't understand the Reddit community.
Reddit is great for marketing, but you need to be extremely careful with how you enter the community and how you promote. Tactics used on other platforms will not work there.
Exactly, it is about making people understand that they are not sold to !!
I've personally not had much success with personalized Reddit dms -- how long are each of your messages?
Mine are currently 4-5 sentences, so I'm worried they might be too long. Have any advice?
I've been seeing a bunch of your posts around, keep up the good work :)
Hey great, you'll love the blog that we wrote on sending first messages on Reddit. Let me share it with you.

Yes, Reddit is way more underrated than you think.
Exactly !!
I was doing posts on Reddit about my latest product. Generated over 100k views, but not a single paying customer. In fact, only ~30 free customers.
I'm still a bit bearish on the B2B Reddit, but I can see it well working on D2C if you play your card rights and follow the rules.
It totally depends on the product, but B2B new products do require some connect with a prospect like talking to them, selling them even (the right way)
I hate its shadow banning part and posts getting removed automatically by the spam filter. Mods do not even bother to respond except a few.
Yeah, I hated that too. Turns our you need to follow some specific things to properly market on Reddit. I created a course on that too.
I agree - I use Reddit for most search (travel, product recommendations, feedback) - it's great!
