I've been trying to help founders distribute their startups.

So far I've built:

• posts to publish
• relevant leads/conversations
• an agent that tells you what to do next

I've reached almost 300 users and 6 founders paid.

But they didn't stick around.

So instead of guessing and building more features, I want to ask you:

If you were struggling to distribute your startup, what would you actually pay someone to do for you?

What would genuinely save you time every week?

Crossed 280 users recently and a few things are becoming pretty clear.

What worked:

• Reddit has been my best acquisition channel.
• Talking to users beats guessing.
• Doing things manually first helped me understand what was worth automating.

What didn’t:

• More traffic doesn’t automatically mean more customers.
• More features don’t automatically mean more value.
• Repeating the same Reddit post eventually stops working.

My biggest lesson so far:

Getting attention is only one part of the job.

The product still has to give people a reason to stay.

I'm building my own products too, and one thing I've learned is how easy it is to waste weeks working on things that don't actually move the business forward.

TractionBooster is now getting close to 300 users, and most of what got me here came from constantly testing what actually brings people in and what doesn't.

So let's do this again.

Drop your startup below and tell me:

• what you're building
• who it's for
• what you're currently struggling with

I'll pick some and tell you the one thing I'd focus on next and what I'd probably stop wasting time on.

No pitch deck. No 20-paragraph analysis.

Just founder to founder.

I got my first paying users from a simple Reddit post.

I asked founders to drop their SaaS and I’d show them where they were wasting time trying to get users.

It worked.

The problem? I suddenly had dozens of SaaS URLs to research manually.

For every one, I had to understand the product, figure out the ICP, find where those people were talking and work out what they should post.

Great acquisition strategy. Terrible system.

The biggest lesson for me was this:

A distribution channel isn’t really scalable if getting more traffic also means creating more manual work for you.

Now I’m trying to build acquisition systems where more users don’t automatically mean more hours.

Curious if anyone else has run into this problem.

The problem? I suddenly had dozens of SaaS URLs to research manually.

I had to understand each product, figure out the ICP, find the right communities and work out what they should post.

Great acquisition strategy. Terrible system.

So I turned the workflow into software.

Now I can paste a SaaS URL and get:

• who it should target
• where those people hang out on Reddit
• what they’re talking about
• what I’d actually post

That became Traction Booster.

If you’ve launched something and still don’t know where your first users should come from, you can run the same analysis at tractionbooster.com.

No need to drop your SaaS below. That’s literally why I built it.

Me gustaría conocer qué está creando la gente de esta comunidad y que podamos aprender unos de otros.

Comenta:

• Qué estás construyendo
• Para quién es
• Qué es lo que más te está costando ahora mismo

Puede ser conseguir usuarios, vender, validar la idea, distribución o simplemente terminar el producto.

A ver qué problemas se repiten y podemos compartir entre todos qué nos está funcionando.

I grew my own app to almost 300 users, mostly by figuring out what to post and where to post it.

The biggest thing I learned: early-stage founders waste a ridiculous amount of time on distribution that goes nowhere.

So drop:

• your SaaS
• who it's for
• how many users you have right now

I'll pick a few and show what I would change about their distribution to get closer to the first 100 users.

I eventually built TractionBooster because I was doing all of this manually finding communities, studying what posts actually work, writing them, tracking results and improving the next one.

If I don't get to yours, the self-serve version is in the first comment.

Most founders pick subreddits by gut feel, post once, get ignored, then blame the channel.

I ran 100 posts across dozens of communities and tracked what actually moved the needle.

Three things stood out:

Subreddit fit matters more than anything. Same post, wrong community: 2 upvotes. Right community: 30+ and real inbound.

Promotional framing kills you even where it's allowed. Posts that read like a founder thinking out loud outperformed anything that felt like marketing.

Posting too frequently in one sub tanks your standing fast. Cooldowns are real.

If you're struggling to get traction on Reddit, curious what's blocking you. Drop your build in the comments and I'll share where I'd look first.

Most no-code builders pick subreddits by gut feel, post once, get ignored, then blame Reddit.

Promotional framing kills you even where it's allowed. Posts that felt like a founder sharing, not a marketer pitching, consistently outperformed.

Cooldowns are real. Posting too often in the same sub tanks your standing fast.

Built a tool out of this frustration that finds where your buyers are already complaining on Reddit and ranks communities by fit.

Still early. But the signal is real.

What's blocking you from getting traction on Reddit right now? Drop your no-code project below.

Most founders posting on Reddit make the same mistake: they pick subreddits by gut feel, post once, get ignored, and conclude Reddit doesn't work.

I've been testing this the hard way. 100 posts across dozens of communities. Here's what actually moved the needle:

• Subreddit choice matters more than copy. The same post in the wrong community gets 2 upvotes. In the right one, 30+ and real traffic.
• Promotional framing kills you even in communities that allow it. The posts that worked felt like a founder talking, not a marketer selling.
• Timing and cooldowns are real. Posting too often in the same sub tanks your account standing fast.

What I built (TractionBooster) came out of this frustration. It scans Reddit for where your exact ICP is already complaining, ranks subreddits by fit, and generates posts grounded in what's actually working in each community.

Still early, still learning. But the signal is real.

If you're building something and struggling to get eyes on it, curious what's blocking you. Drop it in the comments.

A few weeks ago I started reviewing startup ideas on Reddit.
One post reached 140k views and hundreds of founders replied.
At first it was great.
Then I realized I was spending hours generating reports, sending DMs and answering the same questions over and over.
That completely defeats the point of building software.
So I changed the product around one simple idea:
founders should be able to figure out where to focus, what conversations matter and what to post without waiting for me.
That’s what I’m working on now.
Less manual advice. More self-service.
TractionBooster is in my profile if you want to try it yourself.
