Disclosure: this is my own guide. The process started manually, and later I built a tool that automates some of the tracking. The post itself is focused on the manual system and the patterns I found. I’m happy to talk about the research or answer questions about the strategy.
I spent the last few months studying how people ask for recommendations, compare tools, and describe their problems on Reddit. I began manually tracking high-intent threads across a few subreddits and responding when someone was looking for exactly the type of solution I offer.
This turned into a repeatable process that generated more than 500 warm leads without ads, cold outreach, or posting content every day. The surprising part is how predictable the buying-intent patterns were once I started mapping them.
I wrote a full breakdown of:
• how I found high-signal subreddits
• the four types of posts that consistently contain buying intent
• what to look for in recommendation threads
• how to engage without being salesy
• how to scale the system from manual tracking to automation
