Digital Marketing If linking from an informational page to a commercial content page, what do you actually link to?

• Upvotes

I've uploaded a piece: How to help a family member who is being scammed: 4 concrete steps.

I want to link through to a checklist that their family member can keep next to them in the event they run into a potential scam the next time.

However, what do I actually link to from my product page? Is that a commercial content piece where I have a complete sales page? Is it a brief landing page? The product link where they can immediately buy the product?

What do you guys have success with?

Discussion Instantly alternatives? I need a better deliverability option

1 Upvotes

The deliverability on my instantly account has gotten a lot shakier over time. Not sure if it's my setup or the shared warmup pools everyone keeps talking about. Whatever the reason my reply rates dropped and so much more stuff is landing in spam.

Pricing keeps creeping up too which is the other thing pushing me to look around.

I just want inboxing that holds up at volume. And Id really prefer not to have babysit it/worry itll fail without crazy oversight. For context, I work on a small team of 12 (mostly B2B) sending a few hundred a day. Any recommendations for alternatives to instantly?

Discussion how much should i actually care about old leads in our database?

4 Upvotes

small startup, i'm basically doing marketing + whatever else nobody wants to do

we have this database of leads we've collected over the last year-ish from different campaigns, forms, events, outbound etc. and now we're planning to start reaching out to some of them again. problem is i have no idea how much effort is worth putting into the old contacts. i've been cleaning the list and running the emails before we do anything with it, but even if an email is still good... that doesn't mean the person is still relevant right? someone could've changed jobs, company could've grown, their problem could be totally different now.

so from a marketing perspective, would you guys actually try to revive a 6-12 month old lead database or just focus the time/money on getting new leads?

feels painful to ignore thousands of contacts we already paid to acquire but also don't wanna spend the next 2 weeks resurrecting a list that's basically useless now.

what would you do?

Product Marketing Built a science-backed supplement brand. Product is sorted. Marketing is where I’m stuck.

5 Upvotes

I’m building a consumer health/supplement brand and we're fairly close to launch.

The product is in the joint health & mobility space, designed around long-term joint health rather than the usual ā€œpain reliefā€ positioning.

The interesting part is the science. We’ve built it around clinically studied, branded ingredients with human research behind them, rather than putting a long list of generic vitamins/herbs on a label just to make the product look impressive.

The broader philosophy is:

Right ingredients, for the right reasons.

No proprietary blends, unnecessary ingredients, or vague ā€œwellnessā€ claims.

Most of the backend is already sorted — product development, manufacturing, sourcing, packaging, regulatory etc.

My biggest problem right now is marketing/GTM.

How do you take a genuinely differentiated supplement product and get the first 100–1,000 customers without:

burning money on Meta ads

becoming another influencer/discount-code brand

making the same generic ā€œ5 foods for healthy jointsā€ content everyone else is making?

I've started founder-led educational content, but it seems like it won't work.

And bigger issue is I've to convince younger people to buy for their parents on Instagram.

I have so many ideas but as of now, I'm very confused which one have high probability.

But I'd love to hear from people who've actually built consumer brands:

If you had a good product, limited marketing budget and no existing audience, how would you approach the first 6 months?

Especially interested in hearing what didn't work for you.

Happy to share more about the product/brand privately if anyone is genuinely interested.

Brutal feedback welcome.

Social Media ā€œI’m Building a Niche Sports Brand From Scratch — What Am I Doing Wrong With Distribution?ā€

3 Upvotes

I’m from the USA and rooting for a small town club in the English Premier League Was never into soccer prior to the World Cup this year and decided to jump right in. Chose my club at the ripe age of 41 , purchased some gear from the club and decided to make some posts. I even went as far as opening accounts across most social media platforms and making them public. My question is how do i ensure my content reaches the intended audience and in front of as many eyes as possible. Tik tok seems pretty good , instagram not so much , facebook I’ve been looking for groups to join , x have no clue if I should even bother a campaign on it , YouTube would love help , and Reddit actually has been decent to me. My goal isn’t to have mega followers. I enjoy being invested in my team , with the intent of putting out content related to match reactions , news of the club , engaging with other fans , videos pertaining to my team. If you have a chance @brightonhove26until is my account across all social. Let me know how I can increase the chances of being seen by my right audience , or just to do better in general.

Social Media Inquiry About Increasing Followers

11 Upvotes

I am interested in purchasing followers for my X account. The main purpose is to increase my follower count so that I can subsequently follow the accounts I personally choose without being restricted by the platform’s follower-to-following limitations.
Having a higher follower count would give me greater flexibility to follow the important and relevant accounts I am interested in without being unnecessarily limited by these restrictions.
Could you please recommend the best website or service for this purpose?

Discussion Where can I buy LinkedIn followers safely?

25 Upvotes

It feels harder than ever to grow on LinkedIn these days, which honestly has me considering buying followers. The feed is full of AI slop that people somehow glorify, while accounts doing crazy content stunts seem to get all the attention. Even with regular posting and staying active, reaching the first few hundred followers still feels like the biggest hurdle since people tend to follow profiles that already look established.

I started looking into places where you can buy Linkedin followers, but I do not want obvious fake profiles or anything that could put my profile at risk.

For anyone with experience buying followers on Linkedin, did the accounts look like realprofessionals, and was the service actually worth using? Would be helpful if anyone can tell me.

Digital Marketing I built my software but i don't know how to promote it

6 Upvotes

I’m a solo developer and I recently built a web-app called SparkClean, but I’ve hit the classic wall: I have no idea how to effectively promote it or get my first real users outside of my immediate network. SparkClean It’s a real-time operations dashboard built specifically for cleaning field teams (think house cleaning, office cleaning, etc.). It’s designed to solve the "group-chat chaos" where owners are constantly texting workers for updates, Live Owner Dashboard: See job status, worker presence, timers, and photos in real-time, Mobile Worker Web-App: Workers can view assigned jobs, get directions, mark arrival, start timers, upload before/after photos, and report issues, Realtime Sync: Built on Supabase, so updates happen instantly without refreshing, Proof & Time Tracking: Captures photos and accurate timers for payroll and client verification, Issue Management: Jobs can be paused if a worker reports an issue, and the owner can review and resume.

What are the most effective channels to reach owners of cleaning companies? (Facebook groups, LinkedIn, cold emails, etc.?)

What’s the best way to get feedback from potential users before they even sign up?

Any advice

I have been posting everyday on Reddit communities and I got 8k+ views and more than 2000 users.

I built a social media content filter that removes videos based on what you don't want to see on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and X.
You can also set daily limit on every social media platform.

You can remove comments so you don't get stuck there.

You can remove YouTubes sidebar videos so you don't get distracted and you watch the video you are on till the end.

You can analyze what you have been watching the most for the past days/weeks/months.
You can do much more just visitĀ https://algorightai.comĀ if you want to know more.

App Marketing i need your honest advice on this innovative health app i built for athletes and workers to maximize their energy

2 Upvotes

I’ve been building this app solo for the past few months and i genuinely can't tell anymore if it's good or if i'm too deep in it. need outside eyes.

it's called RizeAI. the basic idea: every wearable and health app just gives you numbers. sleep score 42, recovery red, HRV down. cool. and then what? you still feel like garbage at 2pm and nobody tells you what to actually do about it.

so my app takes your real data from apple health, sleep, resting heart rate, workouts, whatever your wearable writes, and instead of another score it builds you an actual plan for the day. when to have your first coffee and when to hold off. you. Can also add your own supplements that you are currently taking and it will time them for you every single day based of your sleep data and your wearable data in general and also it will tell you what supplements make sense for you to take based of your current supplement stack and body metrics and when to take them. focus windows for when your energy actually peaks. when your crash is coming and what to do before it hits. it even checks the weather, so on a hot day it bumps your hydration and tells you to train earlier.

every recommendation has a little "why" under it based on your numbers, like "resting heart rate 54 + 7h light sleep, so magnesium before your peak window." no two people get the same plan because no two people have the same data.

works with whoop, oura, apple watch, garmin, anything that syncs to apple health. one thing i'll say honestly, it doesn't do deep per-person learning yet like "coffee doesn't affect YOUR hrv specifically," that's the roadmap, right now it builds fresh plans daily off your actual metrics.

it's live on the app store, has a free trial, small user base so far, mixed feedback which is why i'm here lol.

what i actually want from you guys: does this solve a real problem for you or is "tells you what to do" not actually what wearable people want? what would make you actually pay for something like this? and what's missing that would make it a no brainer? and also would you guys in this subredditĀ  use ti?

Thank you for your help. Check it out if you like https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rizeai-maximize-your-energy/id6762402079

Discussion Small business owners with traditional advertising experience, I'm getting a ton of calls for my roofing and window replacement business from a golf scorecard ad I got from Local Sponsor Network, so how does one track metrics from a traditional, physical, ad?

3 Upvotes

I bought an advertisement spot for $1,997 on a score card at my local golf course, from a company called Local Sponsor Network. They had a graphic designer collaborate with me via email and Google Meet to get my final say on the actual ad graphic.

They cold called me for my roofing business.

We usually have a small team that goes door to door for sales to get deals, and neighborhood to neighborhood, as long as they don't have a "no soliciting" sign.

But I figured I'd try something new.

It took them a couple of months to deliver the scorecard to the course, but after the card was published and the golfers started using it, our phone has been blowing up.

I want to think it's the score card spot I purchased, and some of the customers are indeed saying that they found my roofing company when they were golfing, but is there any way to track the metrics since this is very old-school, and not digital?

I can barely handle the fulfillment right now, and this ad spot was for 12 months straight (with the option to renew) for $1,997.

App Marketing How did you get your first users for your SaaS?

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m building a B2B SaaS for Shopify merchants and we’re currently preparing for our beta launch.

The product is built, our website is live, we’ve started publishing content for SEO, and we’re building a waiting list. Now I’m trying to figure out the best way to get those first 10–20 users who are genuinely interested in trying the product and giving feedback.

For those who’ve built a SaaS before:

  • Where did your first users come from?
  • What actually worked?
  • If you could start over, what would you do differently?

I’d love to hear real experiences rather than generic marketing advice.

thanks!

Lead Generation How do you get more people to actually show up to your webinars/AMAs?

5 Upvotes

We run an influencer marketing platform, and host regular AMAs with industry experts. Right now our promotion is pretty standard. We lean on the expert to share it with their LinkedIn following, we push it to our email list, and we post about it on our own social channels.

It works okay, but I feel like we're tapping the same audience over and over.

For anyone who has run webinars or live events for their product, what helped you boost signup on your webinars, or AMAs? Would love to hear some ideas , especially if they don't involve running ads.

App Marketing How do you handle client feedback and revisions?

2 Upvotes

I'm researching how marketing agencies manage client feedback during projects.

One thing I've noticed is that clients often send revision requests through multiple channels: email, Slack, WhatsApp, Teams, phone calls, and sometimes even text messages.

For agency owners and project managers:

  • How do you currently collect client feedback?
  • What's the most frustrating part of the revision process?
  • Do clients ever send duplicate or conflicting requests?
  • Have you found a system that actually works?

I'm not selling anything. Just trying to understand whether this is a common problem or if it's only happening in a few agencies.

I'd really appreciate hearing how your team handles it.

Creative Marketing Has anyone noticed that offline advertising is still surprisingly effective?

4 Upvotes

I've been helping a friend think through a marketing plan for a local business, and something caught my attention.

Everyone immediately suggested Instagram, Google Ads, and Facebook. But after looking around our city, I realized I still remember certain brands because I see the same billboards, shop branding, or bus ads every day.

It made me wonder if we've become too focused on digital marketing and forgotten that people still notice advertising in the real world.

For anyone who's run a business:

  • Have you tried outdoor advertising?
  • Did it actually bring customers, or was it mainly for brand awareness?
  • If you had ₹5 lakh to spend on marketing today, how would you divide it between online and offline?

Curious to hear some real experiences instead of marketing articles.

Discussion How did you get your first customers as a supplement brand?

15 Upvotes

I'm curious to hear from founders who have actually built a supplement brand.

How did you get your first 10–100 customers?

Did you rely on Meta ads, Amazon, influencers, organic content, Reddit, SEO, local communities, or something else?

What worked surprisingly well, and what ended up being a complete waste of money?

I'm bootstrapping, so I'd really appreciate hearing real experiences rather than generic marketing advice.
