Communities are big power of our strategy. Platforms like Slack groups and niche forums drive better engagement than traditional ads.

@benjaminbekken That is interesting, any recommendations on how to find a relevant group to your niche on Slack?

Benjamin Bekken · Answer

I've found a lot of great help through slack-communities actually, highly recommend!

Jonathan Edward Brooks · Answer

Definitely! I've found some great communities on Discord and Reddit for marketing my SaaS product. Lots of helpful folks sharing strategies and tactics that have worked for them. Also been experimenting with using AI tools like ChatGPT to help brainstorm marketing copy and content ideas to share in those communities. Seems to be working well so far in driving more engaged users to my site! Would love to hear what communities others are finding valuable for marketing.

Philip Barrett · Answer

I use communities to get the world out about my products.

Evelyn Marie · Answer

Communities have really helped me find like-minded people who are genuinely interested in what I offer.

Benjamin Bekken · Answer

@daniel_zeru_apps I googled around and found relevant ones. We are a content marketing platform, so i tried finding similar content marketing slack groups and found "Online Geniuses" and "Mindtheproduct". They have become quite "spammy" with people spamming their tools, so you can drown in a lot of noise, but DMing people and starting real conversations has helped reach more relevant people:D

Gerry Marshal · Answer

Yes, social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Tumblr are incredibly helpful for marketing strategies because they have millions of subscribers and generate significant traffic. I'm currently working on Buy Dubai Tickets and leveraging all these platforms for promotion—it might be a great strategy for you too

Dzmitry Tsemirau · Answer

I think everyone is using them now. LinkedIn and PH.

Dan ZeruApps · Answer

@justice_ojoka Thank you for sharing, if I can ask how have you gone about finding the communities that have been the best for you?

Dan ZeruApps · Answer

@jonathanedwardbrooks Thank you for sharing! Have you considered any paid options for communities like a private discord server or similar things? Or for what you’re doing, is it more about discovery and visibility?

Answer

Totally, communities are such a powerful marketing channel. I leverage niche FB groups, subreddits, and Discord servers to organically promote my SaaS ProductClips.io. Engaging with your target audience in a genuine way builds trust, drives traffic, and converts users better than any ads in my experience!
