Keeping up with social media trends feels like trying to drink from a firehose these days. One minute everyone's obsessed with Instagram Reels, the next they've moved on to some new TikTok challenge I've never heard of. And don't even get me started on the Twitter/X rebrand chaos.

For those of us running social media agencies, staying current isn'...

Reddit can be a goldmine for agencies looking to build authentic communities around their clients' brands. But let's face it - most agencies crash and burn on Reddit because they treat it like every other social platform. I've spent the last four years managing subreddits for clients ranging from SaaS startups to established CPG brands, and I'm sha...

I stumbled across r/requestfees about 8 months ago when I was desperately hunting for clients for my fledgling design agency. We'd burned through our initial contacts, and that dreaded client drought was setting in. You know the one - where you refresh your email every 5 minutes hoping for inquiries that never come.

What I discovered changed every...

I stumbled into using Reddit for design inspiration completely by accident. Three years ago, our agency was stuck on a particularly challenging rebrand for a fintech client. The brief was vague, the client was indecisive, and our creative team was spinning in circles. Out of frustration, I posted our concept drafts to r/design one evening, expectin...

Reddit can be a goldmine or a minefield, depending on how you approach it. I've spent the last three years helping agencies build their presence there, and I've seen spectacular successes and embarrassing failures. The difference? Understanding that Reddit isn't just another marketing channel—it's a community ecosystem with its own unwritten rules ...

I spent three years running social campaigns for clients before I discovered Reddit's keyword research capabilities. Three. Whole. Years. That's approximately 1,095 days of missing out on what might be the most underrated goldmine of audience insights on the internet.

If you're an agency struggling to get real traction for your clients on social m...

I stumbled into r/design about four years ago when a client rejected our third logo concept with the helpful feedback of "I don't know, it just doesn't pop." Desperate and slightly delirious at 1 AM, I posted the concepts anonymously, asking what was missing. Within hours, a dozen designers had weighed in—most pointing out that our typography was f...

Reddit marketing feels like trying to defuse a bomb sometimes. One wrong move and boom - your brand's getting roasted by anonymous users with usernames like PM_ME_YOUR_CATS. I've been there, sweating bullets while watching a client's campaign go sideways because we didn't read the room right.

But here's the thing - when Reddit marketing works, i...

Reddit AMAs used to intimidate the hell out of me. The first time a client suggested hosting one, I broke into a cold sweat imagining all the ways internet strangers could tear them apart in real-time. Five years and dozens of successful AMAs later, I've completely changed my tune. These sessions aren't just marketing stunts—they're goldmines for a...

Ever notice how Netflix somehow knows exactly what show to recommend after you've binged your latest obsession? Or how Amazon suggests products you didn't even realize you needed? That's not coincidence—it's personalization at work. And honestly, it's the same secret sauce that separates mediocre lead generation from the kind that actually fills yo...

Reddit marketing is a bit like trying to grow plants in a garden where the soil changes composition every day. Just when you think you've got it figured out, the algorithm shifts, communities evolve, and suddenly your carefully crafted strategy needs a complete overhaul.

I've spent the last three years helping brands navigate the chaotic-but-rewar...

I stumbled across the most incredible mural in Brooklyn last weekend - this massive, vibrant piece that had people literally stopping in their tracks to take photos. What caught my eye wasn't just the artwork itself (though it was stunning), but the subtle integration of a local coffee brand into the design. It didn't feel forced or corporate at al...

The first time I saw a brand successfully use street art in their marketing, I was walking through Brooklyn's DUMBO neighborhood around 2018. There was this massive mural that blended seamlessly with the neighborhood vibe, but if you looked closely, you could spot subtle elements of the brand's identity woven throughout. It wasn't screaming "BUY OU...

Promoting your website online feels like walking through a minefield sometimes. One wrong step and BOOM – you're labeled as that spammy person nobody wants to engage with. I've been there, frantically posting my website link everywhere only to get downvoted into oblivion or worse, banned from communities I actually cared about.

After years of tria...

Ever clicked on a promising ad only to land on a page that made you hit the back button faster than you could say "nope"? Yeah, me too. Way too often.

I've spent the last 4 years managing paid social campaigns for clients ranging from scrappy startups to companies dropping six figures monthly on Meta ads. The painful truth I've learned? Most busin...

Influencer marketing has exploded over the past few years, and honestly, I'm still surprised by how many companies are just now catching on. I've watched this space evolve from random celebrities hawking products on Instagram to today's sophisticated ecosystem of micro-influencers, content creators, and brand ambassadors. If you're still on the fen...

I've been watching this trend explode over the past few years, and honestly, I'm still amazed at how many brands are missing the boat. Experiential marketing isn't just another buzzword to throw around in meetings - it's completely transforming how customers connect with brands in ways traditional marketing just can't touch.

After spending the las...

Reddit can be a goldmine for leads if you know how to navigate it without getting downvoted into oblivion. I've been marketing on social platforms for years, and Reddit has always been the trickiest one to crack. The community can smell promotional content from a mile away, and they're not shy about calling you out.

That's why I wa...

Reddit marketing is honestly a bit of a nightmare. I've spent countless hours trying to crack the code, only to get downvoted into oblivion or - even worse - banned for being too "promotional."

If you've been there too, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Reddit users can smell marketing from a mile away, and they absolutely hate it when you...

Finding quality leads online feels like searching for a needle in a digital haystack these days. Trust me, I've been there - spending countless hours manually hunting for potential customers only to end up with a handful of lukewarm prospects and a serious caffeine addiction.

About six months ago, my marketing team was struggling to hit our quarte...

We've all been there. You've poured your heart and soul into your website, your product, or your service, and now you're staring at the analytics dashboard wondering why the heck nobody's visiting. Zero traffic. Crickets. It's like throwing a party and nobody shows up, except the party cost you thousands of dollars and countless sleepless nights.

Marketing in 2025 is a total nightmare. I've been in this game for almost a decade, and I've never seen attention spans this short or competition this fierce. Traditional ads? People scroll right past them. Email campaigns? Straight to spam. Cold outreach? Good luck getting past those gatekeepers.

That's why I've been obsessed with guerrilla marke...

Let's be real - promoting your website on Reddit is like walking through a minefield blindfolded. One wrong move and BOOM! You're downvoted to oblivion, maybe even banned, and your reputation is in tatters. I learned this the hard way back in 2019 when I tried pushing my photography portfolio. The Redditors sniffed out my self-promo...
