How to Get Leads on Reddit Through Direct Messages Automatically
Reddit has 50M+ daily users, but most people ignore DMing them.
Reddit comminutes are super niche, so DMing them is your edge.
Here's how to get leads from Reddit, without getting banned or ignored.
1. Find Your People
Every subreddit is a community built around a topic, pain point, or desire.
Your job is to find ones where people already talk about what you solve.
- Selling fitness coaching? Try r/loseit.
- Launching a dev tool? Try r/webdev.
- Promoting a SaaS? Try r/startups.
Use Reddit search or ask AI what subreddits would fit your product.
2. Set up bulk DMs.
Sort by new in the subreddit.
DM the users who recently posted or...
Find comment threads and DM everyone in the thread.
If you target the community - they're qualified 90% of the time.

3. Offer Value, Ask Permission
Here's a proven message format:
{Hey|Hello|What's up|Yo|Hi|hey|yo|what's up|howdy|Howdy},
Saw your post in r/[subreddit]. I built something I think will help you.
Mind if I send over more info?
That's it.
No links. No pitch.
Just an invitation.
This works because:
- It's not pushy.
- You're relevant.
- You're helpful.
