    As the founder of Opencord AI, I'd like to share my experience with marketing on Reddit. Our product specializes in 24/7 engagement on Twitter and Reddit to promote products and drive growth and sales conversions. We recently launched on Product Hunt, achieving #2 for the day and #1 in Marketing for the week. Here's what I've learned about promoting on Reddit: 1. Account age and karma are crucial. I created a new Reddit account about a month ago and used Opencord AI to increase my comment karma to 100 within two weeks, solely by answering user questions without any promotion. 2. Once my account was over a month old with 100+ karma, I instructed Opencord AI's Reddit agent to include a mix of promotional content along with genuine user engagement. This balanced approach ensured my karma continued to grow. 3. With 100+ karma, I began posting promotional content in subreddits that allow founder promotions. This gradual approach helps maintain account health long-term. 4. Some of our users have taken a more aggressive approach, using Opencord AI to post purely promotional comments. While this has attracted new users, it's more suitable for accounts with a higher comment karma foundation. It's crucial to reasonably control the number of such comments to maintain account health. 5. The effectiveness of these strategies depends on your product's appeal and the presence of your target audience on Reddit. Remember, while tools like Opencord AI can help automate and optimize your Reddit marketing, it's essential to maintain authenticity and adhere to platform rules. The key is finding the right balance between engagement and promotion. Opencord AI can't replace me in doing everything, but it has saved me a tremendous amount of time. We work together to achieve higher efficiency, which is why I created Opencord AI in the first place - to create value for users who truly need this kind of support.
