- Read the sidebar and pinned posts. Moderators often add rules there, and rules change. Check r/b2bmarketing's before your first post.
- Build a history first. Comment helpfully on r/b2bmarketing for a few weeks before you post. Accounts that only ever promote get filtered.
- Say you made it. When you mention your own product, disclose it. Hidden promotion is the quickest way to a ban.
