Is Reddit the most overlooked - and potentially most powerful - marketing platform for eCommerce brands today? This week, I'm joined by my friend Danny Kirk, founder of ReddiReach, to explore the high-risk, high-reward nature of Reddit marketing, why it's different from any other platform, and how generative AI is reshaping how people find and trust brands. Listen in as we talk about how to market on Reddit without getting roasted, how LLMs are changing search and discovery (and what you can do about it), and why Danny's company is betting big on GEO - Generative Engine Optimization. We also dive into Danny's philosophy on productivity, managing team growth, and choosing the right business size for your goals.
