For Reddit Marketing is it better to buy reddit accoounts & work yourself or do you find it better to delegate the work?

A question for people with experience of actually using reddit to market goods & understand business.

No fluff talk. No underhanded pitches. Just, straight talk.

For those with real skin in the game.
 
purchase of reddit profile might cause limitation on the usage with no good managing method which can secure the profile for usage,using own register age profile with karma is better to achieve engagements on every post.

So you rather buy your own profiles than hire an agency to do it aka delegation?
 
I wouldn't trust an agency or anyone with my reddit account posts, trying to game the system.

I can write well. I'm stupid enough to be intelligent. (could be the other way around, not sure, lol) I have assets to market. I can read sub rules. I can create good memes. Thats what reddit wants. They want me to go there, enjoy myself, promote my ish if i want, and profit.

They don't want people gaming the system for others. (an agency gives a gurantee and a damn of how much if you get banned? lol)

As with all types of websites there is white hat and blackhat methods. I use white hat methods, as I value my account, and i want to keep it long term.

I've been mostly white hat myself as well. I dabble in blackhat when clients want short term boom for a trend.

Very interesting perspectives.
 
Start with doing it yourself. You should be able to handle all work related to the work. When you have personally mastered it, you can move to outsource to scale it even more.
 
Cheap Windows VPS + Mobile Proxy + VA is the way to go if you're thinking of building accounts.

If you're on a budget you can look for an antidetect browser and share profiles with your VA.

Set daily quality replies + 5 threads a week in harmless subs like damnthatsinteresting etc.

For replies head to Boru type subs.

Scan the account every other day to check quality of replies.
 
It depends on the product but knowing the community yourself is always an advantage nobody understands your audience better than you do.
 
I’d rather understand the platform first before handing it off reddit communities can be very different and the right approach depends on the audience.
 
delegation doesnt fail on trust, it fails because whoever you hire works to a quota and pushes volume to show output, that burns the account fast. buying to skip the warmup is fine but the posting still has to be you or someone who actually reads the subs. i keep it small, few accounts i know the niches for, beats handing off to someone who doesnt care if it survives
 
Delegating is better
But nowadays, due to Reddit updates, those services are taking days to post a fcking comment that will be deleted in 4 hours
Not to say about upvotes, they work for 12 hours and get wiped out

Always speaking truth! High Five
 
If you understand your audience and niche, doing it yourself usually gives better results at the start. Reddit communities value authenticity, so outsourcing too early can make posts feel unnatural. Delegation works better once you have a proven strategy.


It only gives you better results if you are are really skilled

or

the true reason people would say this is because they're hiring the 90% of reddit services that are not fluent in native US English and/nor understand the popular culture that runs reddit to fit in the top conversations
 
It's something you can achieve and even scale yourself, you'd obviously need VA's at first until you figure out automation and a healthy method, and you're set! Smooth sail from there.

Is this answer to the initial question? Confusing a bit.
 
I need to grow subreddits. I have a system but not sure whether I should automate it or have a VA execute manually. What do u think?
 
I prefer doing it myself at the beginning. Reddit has a learning curve, and it's easier to spot what works when you're the one posting. Once you have a process, then it makes sense to delegate.

It is the answer to your question.

I personally buy my accounts pre-warmed and use my own custom python script to automate the posting itself, I currently only outsource the accounts, but the posting itself can be expensive if you leave it for someone else to do.
I use real-machine virtual phone service that allows api input, currently burned through tens off accounts, still chiselling it, reddit changes their spam filter rules weekly now but I still manage to get good results.
 
Buying accounts and doing everything yourself can work, but it needs a lot of time to understand subreddit rules, build account history, create natural engagement and avoid getting posts removed. i would say the key is not the account itself but it is the strategy, content quality, account reputation and understanding of each community.
 
If you’re really trying to scale marketing on reddit, do both. Grow your own account or accounts and do it in a natural, honest way, following sub rules and providing genuine helpful posts. then use an agency for additional posts and comments elsewhere. Most agencies use their own accounts separate to yours, so concerns about them being banned isn’t a real issue and won’t affect what you’re already doing. Most also offer a guarantee of posting again if their post is removed, so again the risk is close to zero. Of course this only counts if you have a decent agency that knows what they’re doing, which is harder to find.
