The working Reddit playbook
Use this as the working brief before choosing a thread, writing a reply, or publishing a post.
Safest first move
Map your category to buyer questions, alternatives, reviews, and pain searches.
Subreddit fit
Start with r/saas, r/entrepreneur, r/seo, r/content-marketing and use the related subreddit list before drafting.
What to post or comment
Write replies that explain the tradeoff before naming the product.
What to avoid
Starting with launch posts instead of buyer questions. Using the same answer across multiple subreddits. Counting drafted replies as proof before the comment is accepted.
Proof and measurement
Save the permalink, accepted context, and downstream search or sales signal.
