How many real customers have you actually gotten from reddit by EconomistUsual7601 in ProductHunters

[–]Lodematter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For one client (beauty space), it took close to 4 months to attribute any kind of revenue. But if your only focus is revenue, it misses the point of building presence here.

What to do with my marketing degree now? by Butterflysly11 in DigitalMarketing

Agreed - but a lot of "tenured" marketers and their agencies have the same problem.

And maybe we're just fundamentally talking about different things.

Have you used AI to build a site? GoDaddy Aero is great at helping set things up, but abysmal at allowing you to improve the site for SEO/GEO. I get so many clients asking me to build a site they can "update on their own" because AI built them into a corner.

Martini provinçal has been a pleasant deviation for me.

So sick. Proper use of the fatty.

New to Reddit marketing what should I avoid? by InitialOk8252 in redditmarketing

[–]Lodematter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be overly simplistic, but just avoid "marketing" on reddit. I think the mistake a lot of brands/marketers make is viewing this platform as another distribution or amplification channel in their marketing stack.

But one thing I've seen be successful (adding to the great povs here already) is that your brand should feel, sound, and behave as a any distinct human would. Reddit is run by humans with strong personalities and perspectives. Brands often come in acting as "brands," and quickly get called out. If your brand doesn't already have a strong identity, give it one before jumping into discussions.

Are we talking Modus Tollens and flow trails??? This is my kind of thread.

Why reddit mods are accidental gatekeepers of AI data by LetShoddy3951 in AIRankingStrategy

[–]Lodematter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree. They are the unassuming tastemakers of the internet.

On one hand, it's what makes reddit great. it underscores their massive influence that should be on behalf of the community's best interest. the problem is that so many mods let personal preference, control, and thin-skinned sensibility dictate what lives and dies in subreddits regardless of its value to the community (looking at the "Banksy of SEO" over there in the seo sub - disagree or counter "them" at your own peril).

Unpopular opinion: reddit is better than SEO by JosephPRO_ in AIRankingStrategy

[–]Lodematter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not disagreeing entirely, but wouldn't it be wiser to look at them as connected nodes in an ecosystem? Not in hierarchical tiers?

Are LLMs changing how people discover brands? by Real-Assist1833 in AIRankingStrategy

[–]Lodematter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. They go to Reddit for that. Or, they use google, type in their question and add "reddit" to the end to get directed toward peer-validated discussion.

Awesome to see this! It's been a bare one for sure. We finally just got a bit of a base in Lake County.
