Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.

Rule summary

  • Community-specific content: Posts must be on topic, in-depth, and Product Marketing focused. Please structure your title as follows for consistency: 1. POST TITLE: A clear and detailed title including: B2B or B2C and your industry. 2. POST BODY: Include at least one paragraph of supporting text that frames your question or point clearly Post title examples: - (B2C Fintech) Pricing strategy for a savings app targeting Gen Z in the UK - (B2B Security) Feature packaging for a cybersecurity suite aimed at SMBs in Europe
  • No self-promotion, clickbait, AI spam, or low-effort content: We can all tell when you post AI slop. Don’t do it. This is NOT LinkedIn. Your post will be removed. Do not request work, offer services, or promote your own product or company. If your post mentions your product or company name, it will be removed. Avoid repeating questions that have already been discussed. Please search/filter previous posts before starting a new thread.
  • Career related posts: To keep discussions balanced, career-related posts are only allowed on Fridays. This is not a job board - please do not post or request jobs. Use the "Career - Only Friday" tag when posting about job searches, interview prep, career transitions, compensation, or personal growth in Product Marketing. Posts outside of Friday will be removed.
  • Be polite & respectful: Be polite and respectful of other users. Civil conversation is okay, bigotry and personal attacks are not. If engaged in debate, argue in good faith and assume that all parties involved are doing the same.
  • 1 post per user, per day - quality over quantity: 1 post per user, per day
  • Moderator discretion: The Mods may remove any post or comment to maintain the quality and focus of the subreddit, even if it does not explicitly break a rule.

Works well

  • A detailed question post with a formatted title like (B2B Security) Feature packaging for a cybersecurity suite aimed at SMBs in Europe, followed by a body paragraph explaining your situation and what you have already tried.
  • A pricing strategy discussion where you describe a real pricing decision you are wrestling with, name your industry and audience in the title, and never mention your company name.
  • A positioning or messaging question framed as a genuine dilemma, with context on your market and target customer in the body.
  • A lessons learned post about a product marketing decision that went wrong, written as a story and an open question so others can weigh in.
  • A career question posted on a Friday with the “Career - Only Friday” tag, if your question is about interview prep or career transitions in product marketing.

Avoid

  • Mentioning your product or company name anywhere in the post, which gets it removed under “No self-promotion, clickbait, AI spam, or low-effort content”.
  • Posting a link to your blog, tool, or landing page, since this is not a place to promote your own product or company.
  • Using a title without the required format, like a vague question with no industry or audience named.
  • Writing a post with no supporting body text, because a title alone does not meet the rule.
  • Pasting AI-generated text into your post, since the community explicitly calls out AI slop and removes it.
  • Posting a career question on any day other than Friday, which gets the post removed even if it is well written and on topic. Use the “Career - Only Friday” tag when Friday comes around. This is not a job board, so do not post or request jobs either. Career topics include job searches, interview prep, career transitions, compensation, and personal growth in Product Marketing. Plan ahead and save it

What r/ProductMarketing Is For

r/ProductMarketing is a place for product marketers to ask questions, share knowledge, vent, and discuss strategy. The people here work in product marketing, so the talk centers on things like positioning, pricing, packaging, and go to market questions. The rules push for depth. A post must be on topic, in depth, and Product Marketing focused, and it needs a structured title plus a body that frames the question or point clearly. This is a working room for practitioners, not a feed for announcements.

Rules That Matter Before Posting

The rule that decides most things here is “Community-specific content”. Your post must be on topic, in depth, and Product Marketing focused, and the title must follow their format. That format is B2B or B2C plus your industry, then a clear and detailed title. Your post body needs at least one paragraph of supporting text that frames your question or point clearly. The second rule is “No self-promotion, clickbait, AI spam, or low-effort content”. This one is blunt. Do not request work, offer services, or promote your own product or company. If your post mentions your product or company name, it will be removed. The rule also says this is not LinkedIn and that AI slop gets removed. Third, “Career related posts” only allows career topics on Fridays, and you must use the “Career - Only Friday” tag. This is not a job board, so do not post or request jobs. Fourth, “1 post per user, per day - quality over quantity” limits you to one post a day. Finally, “Moderator discretion” means mods can remove anything to keep quality up, even if no rule is technically broken. The rule “Be polite & respectful” matters less for survival and more for how your comments land.

What To Post

A good post here is a real product marketing question or lesson, written in your own words, with the required title format. Start with B2B or B2C and your industry in brackets, then a clear and detailed title. Something like a pricing question for a specific product type in a specific market. Then write at least one paragraph in the body that frames your question or point clearly. The more specific your situation, the better the answers you get. If you are a founder, the respectful play is to ask for advice on a real positioning, pricing, or packaging problem you are facing, without naming your company. Share what you have tried and what you learned, framed as a discussion, not a pitch. Search previous posts first so you are not repeating a question that has already been discussed. You get one post per day, so make it count.

What To Avoid

The fastest removal is self-promotion. If your post mentions your product or company name, it will be removed, so leave your brand out of it entirely. Do not offer services or ask for work either. Do not post AI written content, because the community calls out AI slop directly and the mods remove it. Do not post clickbait or low effort one liners. Do not skip the title format, because posts without the required structure get removed. Do not post career topics outside Friday, and do not treat the sub as a job board. Do not repeat questions that have already been discussed, because the rules tell you to search and filter previous posts first. And remember the one post per day limit plus moderator discretion, which means even a technically clean post can go if it does not fit the room.

Common questions about r/ProductMarketing

Can I mention my product or company name in my post?

No. The rules say do not request work, offer services, or promote your own product or company, and any post that mentions your product or company name will be removed.

Can I ask about salaries or job hunting here?

Only on Fridays, and only with the “Career - Only Friday” tag. This is not a job board, so you cannot post or request jobs.

What does the required title format look like?

Write a clear and detailed title that includes B2B or B2C and your industry, then add at least one paragraph of supporting text that frames your question or point clearly.

Can I repost a question someone already asked?

The rules ask you to search or filter previous posts before starting a new thread, so repeated questions are treated as low effort.

How many posts can I make per day?

One post per user per day, and the community explicitly says quality over quantity.
