~1.6M membersOpen on Reddit

r/marketing is the broad home for marketing discussion on Reddit. It covers strategy, careers, channel tactics, and tool recommendations across B2B and B2C.

Who posts here

In-house marketers, agency staff, and founders wearing the marketing hat — a wide seniority range.

Community size

~1.6M members — a large community. Use it as a general-tier sub: high reach, filter hard for intent.

Using r/marketing for lead generation

A general-tier sub for martech and marketing services. The best threads are specific channel problems ('our X channel stopped working') rather than career or strategy debates. Pair it with a niche sub like r/SEO or r/GrowthHacking for hit rate.

Buying signals to watch for
  • "Best tool for [channel/task]" questions
  • Threads about a channel underperforming
  • Agency owners asking how to scale delivery
  • Attribution and reporting pain posts
Self-promotion rules

Promotion is restricted; mods remove link drops. Recommendations land when they answer a specific, asked question.

    Low Quality (Post Removal & Possible Ban)

    We're trying to build something great here, help us do that. A post or comment in a poor attempt to shill or sell a product or service, is someone's homework, is asking a question which has already been answered many times, is looking for free marketing instead of paying for a professional, or is a few sentences with a link to their blog. Let's not forget, memes, rants without a source, screenshots, etc. will all be removed.
