The working Reddit playbook
Use this as the working brief before choosing a thread, writing a reply, or publishing a post.
Safest first move
Define buyer-intent signals that still deserve a public answer.
Subreddit fit
Start with r/sales, r/b2bmarketing, r/saas, r/smallbusiness and use the related subreddit list before drafting.
What to post or comment
Answer with useful context first and disclose affiliation when a product is mentioned.
What to avoid
Replying to every buyer-intent thread. Using DMs as the default next step. Optimizing for lead count instead of accepted useful answers.
Proof and measurement
Track accepted replies separately from leads, trials, and sales outcomes.
