Questions people ask about playbooks & teardowns
- How long does it take to get customers from Reddit?
- Replies to buying-intent threads can bring a visitor the same day. A repeatable flow of signups usually takes a few weeks of answering consistently in the same subreddits, because people start to recognise the name and threads keep ranking on Google.
- Should I post my launch on Reddit or reply to threads?
- Both, in that order of effort. One launch post in a subreddit that allows it, then weeks of replies in threads where people describe the problem. The launch post spikes once; the replies keep bringing visitors.
