What actually works in agencies subreddits
Agency lead gen on Reddit happens through case studies, not pitches. A detailed post about how you grew a client's revenue 4x, with screenshots and the exact playbook, performs better than any direct service offer. The post does not even need to mention your agency name. People will DM you to ask.

Agencies subreddit FAQ
What people ask before posting in agencies subreddits.
What is the best subreddit for marketing agencies?+−
r/agency for operator-side discussions, r/marketing for visibility, r/PPC and r/SEO for service-specific authority building.
Can I find clients for my agency on Reddit?+−
Yes, indirectly. Direct pitches are banned in most subs. Posting genuine case studies and answering tactical questions in the subs where your prospects read works much better.
Should I run an agency-only subreddit strategy?+−
Mix it. Half operator-side subs for peer learning and recruiting, half client-side subs for lead generation. The two together compound.
How long before Reddit starts producing agency leads?+−
Three to six months for most agencies. Reddit is a slow trust build. Agencies that show up consistently with useful content see leads accelerate around month four.
