This is the third attempt they’ve made to work with that guy that actually got routed to me because their salespeople don’t do their due diligence. Shocking.

Edit; a little extra context: I have an email alias on a domain similar to one he might use, and regularly receive email addressed to him. Reddit marketing folks reached out in a less cookie cutter manner a couple times last year, this is more of a mailing list outreach attempt.

    What kind of corpo bullshit is this

    Basically they’re saying that they’re going to browse posts regarding applicable products and “recommend” those and boosts with fake upvotes

    Basically you’re going to have advertisements penetrate through legitimate discussions in the form of a “random real person.”

        I remember some post that featured a kitchen appliance, and underneath were people talking about, “Is that [brand] [product]? It’s so good!”

        Then replies like, “Yes, I also have [brand]'s [other product], I love it!”

        “Did you get [product] with [feature] and [other feature]?”

        They were naming products and features, but I didn’t care enough to remember them. It was so blatant though, just ad-copy formatted like a conversation. You could see the massive gleaming fake smiles through the text.
