Twight First-user conversations on Reddit

Hit a wall after launch — how are you finding first users?
r/SideProject · u/buildinpublic_ria · 16 comments

Conversation starters for people who just launched and are stuck on distribution.

Start a conversation

hitting that post-launch wall is super common when launching side projects like shaadi.diy. are you relying mostly on organic content right now, or have you tried reaching out directly to people asking for advice in wedding subreddits?

References their launch + niche; one question, no pitch.

Ask about their channel mix

saw your comment about burning a week on threads with nothing to show for it. what’s been the hardest part — finding the right posts, or figuring out what to say once you’re there?

Comment

Relate without pitching

same wall here after launch. curious if you’ve tried showing up in smaller niche subs vs the big founder ones?

Built for founders hunting first users

Same workflow whether you’re pre-launch or post-launch stuck. Not a spam blaster.

Twight suggests. You craft it.

Drafts are a kickstart — not the final message. Edit until it sounds like you.

Your edit

a whole account banned right here!! .. are you relying mostly on organic content right now, or have you tried reaching out directly to people asking for advice in wedding subreddits?

No need to read the whole thread Twight picks potential first users in the thread and drafts openers grounded in what they wrote.
Conversation first first messages ask one real question. No pitch. No link dump.
You stay in the loop copy, tweak the tone, send manually. Passion still matters.

When they reply, keep the thread

DM to u/shaadi_diy · r/SideProject

Your earlier message:

a whole account banned right here!! .. are you relying mostly on organic content right now, or have you tried reaching out directly in wedding subs?

They replied: “lol wait banned?? also yeah mostly organic so far, wedding subs feel scary to post in”

They asked about the ban story — keep it human, then gently mention what I’m building if it fits.

Continue the chat

yeah i learned the hard way that identical follow-ups get you toasted. wedding subs are tough if you lead with a link — usually better to answer someone’s specific question first. i’ve been building a tiny helper for that whole “what do i even say” step if you ever want to peek.

Answers their curiosity; soft product mention only after they engaged.
