My ChatGPT Product Went Viral on Reddit - Here’s the Aftermath

We're not talking about a couple of upvotes, we're not talking about hundreds of views, we're talking big boy numbers.

In particular

  • 133,000 views
  • 713 upvotes
  • 514 comments

Let's be honest, this is all just fluff

Let's see how my product benefited from this.

I received

  • 1,000 new users
  • 17 customer leads
  • 4 new customers (+ $60MRR)

$60 doesn't seem that much, but I'm very grateful for my first 4 customers.

The product I showcased is only open to the public for a month. And I've worked on it for 2 months.

So I'd say not too shabby.

The Strategy I Used

The post was very simple.

  • No link
  • No CTA
  • No sleazy marketing

Just a simple video describing my product.

If you're interested, here is the link to the original post.

I think this works great, be cause people will literally start asking about the link.

  • It drives engagement
  • It drives views
  • You still get visitors

The only downside is that you need to message all the people one by one.

But hey, it's worth it.
