Posting your startup in r/Entrepreneurs
Yes. r/Entrepreneurs is one of the subreddits that lets founders share their own product, as long as you follow its self-promotion rules and give the community more than you take. The rules and the post formats that get approved are below.
Posts that share specific, counterintuitive lessons learned from running a business—framed as tactical advice or mindset shifts. The winning angle is 'here's what I discovered that changed things,' backed by concrete results or real customer interactions, told in a conversational tone.
Self-promotion rules
r/Entrepreneurs allows self-promotion when it's genuinely educational or adds value to the community. Posts sharing lessons learned, case studies, or tactical advice from your own experience are welcome, but pure product pitches or links without context will likely be removed. The key is framing your post around the insight or problem-solving, not the promotion itself.
