How to market on r/sales without getting banned

Vendor self-promotion is strongly disliked; the sub is openly hostile to "tool reps" fishing for leads. The safest approach: This is the hardest sub for vendors. Only enter as a practitioner sharing genuine social-selling tactics; treat any product mention as incidental. Pushing here backfires — reputation is the only currency that works.

You get banned for spamming, not for participating. The fast ways to get removed or shadowbanned are posting promotional content outside the allowed threads, using new or multiple accounts to push links, and posting at bot-like intervals. FounderReply does none of those: it works from your own account inside a browser session you signed into yourself, reads the thread before it writes, drafts genuinely useful contributions, and keeps a human approval step on by default — so what goes out is something you would be comfortable posting yourself.

Not by default. On Reddit a new workspace starts with posts, replies and direct messages all at approve, and commenting under other people's threads switched off entirely — so every draft waits in your queue for a one-tap yes. Moving one of those is a deliberate change, and the app names the rule it crosses first. We never operate fake or "managed" accounts on your behalf; it is always your account, in a session you signed into.

Reddit's widely-cited self-promotion norm is that no more than ~10% of your activity should be promotional — the other 90% should be genuine participation. FounderReply is built around that ratio: it surfaces threads where you can genuinely help and drafts value-first contributions, so your promotional mentions stay the exception, not the pattern.
