community rules

Can you promote your product in r/juststart?

No, you cannot promote your product in r/juststart. Rule 3, "Self-Promotion," says, "No promoting your product or service," and adds that this includes "mastermind groups" and that discussion should stay in the subreddit so everyone can learn. If you include a link, Rule 2 also requires it to be in a text post with at least 200 characters, but that does not override the ban on self-promotion.

The rules that cover promotion

Rule 3: Self-Promotion

"Text posts are active to promote discussion. Any link needs to be accompanied by at least 200 characters."

Rule 10: AMA's

"All AMA's need to be approved by mods before appearing in r/juststart/."

Safer ways to show up

Use links only when they are accompanied by at least 200 characters of discussion
If you want to do an AMA, get mod approval first

Whatever the written rules say, the pattern that gets promo removed everywhere is the same: batches of similar comments, reused wording, and necro-posting on old threads. A promotional mention only has value if it survives, so pace matters more than volume. We measured this the expensive way: 70% of bought pool comments were removed within two weeks.
