Reddit Founder Intro Templates
When introducing yourself and your startup on Reddit, your title matters more than anything. If you sound like a CEO pitching a product, you will be ignored. If you sound like a tired builder sharing a weekend project, you will get engagement. Here are the templates.
The "Tired Builder" Intro
This establishes immediate empathy. You aren't a billionaire CEO; you are just a dev who got frustrated.
Hey r/[Subreddit], I'm [Name]. I got so sick of manually doing [Task] that I finally snapped and built a script to automate it.
It saves me about 5 hours a week. Figured I would share it here in case anyone else is dealing with the same headache.
The "Humble Ask" Intro
Perfect for getting beta testers from highly technical subreddits.
I'm a solo dev learning [Technology]. I just built a tiny tool for [Target Audience] that does [Specific Feature].
It is definitely still buggy, but I would love some harsh feedback from this community before I launch it anywhere else.
