Try to be as genuine as possible. Reddit is brutal. Someone else mentioned stories. That's great (good marketing advice in general) Be careful when link dropping. Redditors hate self promotion. Try to find examples of how others have successfully self promoted. --- To summarize, I'd study the successful posts in a subreddit to see what works!

Tell Stories!!!! Promoting on Reddit is a great way but never never directly promote your product When promoting your product on the subreddits there, follow the communit rules. NOT to sell but SHARE—Share valuable lessons, help others, participate in content you feel needs more clarification, and engage in meaningful discussions. Naturally, plug your tool in the context that it can help others and contribute where genuinely helpful/informative. Just give value. Share stories. Share lessons. But never promote.

Ask for feedback I guess. Share your product on r/entrepreneur, r/startups, r/indiehackers, r/internetisbeautiful and other subreddits where your target audience and creators are active.

That’s exactly what I want to know too, curious to see what others say. My product is a tool for transcribing audio and video , SubEasy.ai. I usually search for related questions on Reddit, like ‘how to transcribe a video?’, and then I reply with my product recommendation. While this method is pretty targeted, it takes a lot of time, and there aren’t always perfectly matched questions to respond to.

Definitely engage with relevant subreddits and share valuable content that the community will appreciate. Some strategies: 1) Do an AMA to connect with Redditors and build trust. 2) Share insider stories & learnings about your product journey. 3) Offer special promos/discounts for Redditors. 4) Partner with Reddit influencers in your niche. 5) Sponsor relevant subreddits. Just remember to always provide value and avoid spamming. Building genuine relationships is key!
