Which online communities helped your business the most?

I'm interested to know which online communities or platforms helped you promote your SaaS business and got a positive conversion rate.

      Do you immerge in FB groups specific to your niche or are you in groups founded for SaaSers like SaaS worriors ?

        I used to post on all the groups I could find that have SaaS-related content. But I've noticed just a couple of groups have a higher engagement.

        So these days, I tend to be more active on 4-5 FB groups, posting content and genuinely engaging with the members there.

        Ken Moo's group has the highest engagement. I was part of a Product Hunt launch 2 weeks ago, and his group brought in the most traffic and signups.

          Thank you dear Daniel for the insight :) I get sometimes lost between the various channels. It is defently more helpful to focus only on few ones

    to be honest, I hate reddit but most of my leads came from reddit, but thats the long run, depends on your audience. My last Saas got successful when i start posting content on instagram and tiktok and my newest one is on linkedin. You can‘t know your channels until you know where your audience is at.
    Here is my linkedin group you can join there:

      I feel like Redditors are sometimes hard to get on board. It takes a certain approach to reach them and you need to be patient until you’re trusted

        Exactly, it requires a "non-salesy" approach.

          I figured that out lately as I posted to ask for Feedback for a project I was working on. I really wasn’t trying to sell anything, I just posted my landing page with small text saying that i wanted to have some feedback for a project i’m working on. Unfortunately, I only got one constructive critic and the rest was just trashing me for self promotion.
          I still need to work on my approach for redditors i guess

            I mean, I get the feedback and everything part, the issue is, a lot of people run this scam where they as for feedback but want users. Hence this result. Anyways, I am all things Reddit Marketing, We can get connected and maybe I can help you with a thing or two with Reddit.
