E648: The Do's and Don'ts of Marketing on Reddit

The Ecomcrew Ecommerce Podcast

What's up everyone, it's Dave here and if you're like me, you're always looking for new platforms to advertise and market your products on. Amazon is definitely not what it used to be. Facebook is not what it used to be. Both of these two platforms are increasingly more and more expensive.

Even TikTok, it's the new player on the block, it's massive, but it's also ridiculously expensive and there's a lot of people who are getting incredible traction on TikTok, but also spending a lot of money and losing a lot of money on TikTok. However, there's a social platform that's one of the top five platforms in America that a lot of people dismiss.

Amazon FBA and that platform is Reddit. So most of you guys listening know Reddit. Many of you guys probably spend hours upon hours each and every week on Reddit. I know I do. But a lot of us don't really think about how to use Reddit for our eCommerce brands. Now, Reddit can be a huge source of not only clicks and traffic for your brand, but more than anything else, Reddit also kind of controls how your brand is talked about in LLMs.

So chat GPT, Gemini, almost all the LLMs are relying upon Reddit for their training data. So Reddit cannot be ignored by eCommerce brands any longer. It's massively important, not only for direct sales, but also for that training data that the LLMs are using. So today we have Danny Kirk on the podcast from readyreach.com who's going to talk about the do's and don'ts to marketing your brand on Reddit.
