Engagement Best Practices

DO

• Solve real problems - Lead with pain points
• Be responsive - Reply to every comment in first 48h
• Credit inspirations - Mention tools that inspired you
• Ask for feedback - Specific questions get better responses
• Cross-promote - Share others' work, they'll share yours

DON'T

• Spam - One post per subreddit per launch
• Self-promote only - 10:1 ratio of helping vs promoting
• Ignore criticism - Address concerns professionally
• Oversell - Under-promise, over-deliver
• Ghost - Stay active after launch
