@shrikardayalu yes stop selling, start solving and reddit will do the rest

My Reddit marketing playbook (after getting my posts removed last time): When I built my first SaaS, I treated Reddit like a distribution channel. Posted too early (Instead of warming up the account) Sounded too promotional. Got my posts taken down by mods. This time, I’m doing it differently. Here’s the plan: Become a real user first I’m spending 2–3 weeks just reading, commenting, and helping people. No product mentions. Reddit rewards people who are part of the community, not outsiders trying to sell Follow the 90/10 rule 90% value, 10% promotion. And not fake value. Actually answering questions, sharing insights, and helping people. Only talk about Koda when it’s relevant If someone is actively struggling with frontend design or UI generation, then I mention it. Not forcing it into random conversations. No copy-paste posts across subreddits That’s the fastest way to get flagged as spam. Every post needs to feel native to the community. Write like a builder, not a marketer No “just launched 🚀” No corporate tone Just real experiences, lessons, and mistakes Focus on problem-first posts Instead of: “Check out my app” More like: “I spent 3 weeks fixing bad AI prompts. Here’s what I learned” Use “build in public” style posts Reddit seems to respond well to transparent journeys, mistakes, and learnings, especially with real details and numbers Engage after posting Reply to every comment. Keep the discussion going. That’s what pushes posts further. Reddit isn’t about traffic. It’s about trust. Once you have that, distribution follows. Curious, what’s worked (or failed) for you on Reddit?

@amarifields_ It makes sense

grateful for the struggles. they made the blessings make sense.

@Usaidamin not work - oh I see the problem I will win it - still not work - oh now I get it lets me fix it - still not work...

Be honest: How many “quick fixes” turned into an hour long debugging session? I swear every time I open the codebase to fix one small thing I discover 5 things that annoy me. Builder tax.

@amantwd are you active account?

@JoseInNorte interesting look eye catching

I've been building a fintech app with one method: Ask AI something. Copy the answer. Paste it somewhere. Hope it works. Repeat. → 322 users → 4 paying subscribers → iOS app approved by Apple All from copy-paste prompting. It worked. Until the AI started confidently adding credit card benefits that don't exist. No clear guardrails. No system. Just me catching hallucinations one by one. So I'm building the system now. From ad-hoc prompting to automated workflows — without losing control of what reaches production. I'll share everything. Including the mistakes. The app is Norte. I'm a creative leader who's barely written a few line of code by hand. This is The Creative Builder Stack. Week 1.

@JohnGregQuantum LETS DO THIS

@RIICommunity Goal: Build and connect with people Connecting Rick….

@uxbystefan 5% boost in retention can increase profits by 25% imo

Most founders think marketing is the growth engine. It’s not. Marketing can get users. But only the product makes them stay. You can spend thousands on ads, content, and growth hacks… But if your product is confusing, bloated, or doesn’t solve a real problem: Users leave. In fintech, this is even more critical. Because users aren’t just testing your UI. They’re deciding if they trust you with their money. That’s why the best fintech products don’t just “market well”. They focus on: • clarity • simplicity • trust Marketing brings attention. Product builds retention. And in the long run, retention is what actually grows a company. #financialtechnology #FounderJourney #BusinessStrategy

@YoannaJuille like this this design

At some point, you just have to stop polishing and start shipping. So save the date 👇 Lutains is officially launching to the world... MARCH 30th! We’ve spent the last few weeks leveling up everything: - Superior copy quality (Reddit-powered) - A smoother, faster UX It’s time to stop building in the dark.
 The final countdown begins NOW. I hope you'll join us for the big day 🙂

@walkojas @yannick_ferire 2k it is strong number! congrats with this result

Follower goal: 3k by April! Thanks @yannick_ferire for the nice visual!

@MichaelOke39841 100k impressions what a grow

There's still a lot of work to do! Let's see how far we can go before the weekend.

@xspark_pro ok than

@RIICommunity ontend + content brain here, always down to support 🙌

@real_rehaan huh only claude in my head

@RIICommunity u mean github?

Day 40 of building in public: > Soooo...funny story. it seems that I MAY have forgotten to commit my first MVP build of the app that I submitted to the app store to github...which means I had to redo the ENTIRE mvp all over again This is why you commit folks..😢 > But its given me a different perspective on how I can play with notifications and i've cut down on minimal stuff that I do not need. So here's round 2! > A few more tests and add PostHog again and this app should be good to go to submit again!
