Different audiences. r/Entrepreneur leans general business and operators. r/startups is more tech and venture focused. Test both with different framings.
Read each subreddit's wiki and rules before posting. Build at least 50 comment karma in the community first. Always frame promotional content as story or value, never as pure pitch.
No. Cross posting identical content is the fastest way to get shadowbanned. Wait 7 days between subreddits and rewrite each post for the audience.
Most founders blame the subreddit when the actual issue is the post format. A great post in r/SaaS converts. A pitchy post in r/SaaS gets removed. Format matters more than reach.
