Find your next customers in r/sales
r/sales is where sales reps, managers, and revenue leaders trade tactics, tools, and hard-won experience.
Who buys here and why
The community spans SDRs at early-stage startups, account executives at mid-market companies, and VPs of Sales at growth-stage firms. Many members have direct or indirect authority over the tools their team uses daily. CRM, prospecting, call recording, and sales enablement tools all come up regularly.
Sales professionals openly share what is slowing them down in their current stack and ask peers for replacements by name. Someone posting about losing deals because their CRM doesn't surface contact history is describing an active pain with budget attached. The community also threads heavily on cold outreach tools, making it a strong signal source for prospecting software.

How to participate in r/sales without spamming
r/sales removes obvious product pitches, but detailed responses to active questions are well received. If someone asks what tool handles multi-thread selling, answering honestly with your product and your role in building it is fair. The key is that your reply must actually answer the question asked, not redirect to a demo link.

Frequently asked questions
Are r/sales members actual buyers or mostly SDRs early in their career?
A mix. SDRs are active but so are quota-carrying AEs, front-line managers, and ops people who own the tooling stack. Watch for posts mentioning team size or deal size for buyer context.
What categories of software come up most in r/sales?
CRM alternatives, outbound sequencing tools, call intelligence software, and proposal or contract tools. Anything that directly touches the rep's daily workflow generates strong discussion.
Can I post a comparison between my product and a competitor?
Only if it is balanced and clearly disclosed. Biased comparisons get called out fast. A transparent breakdown with your affiliation stated up front tends to generate real conversation rather than backlash.
How often do tool recommendation threads appear in r/sales?
Multiple times per week. Threads asking for CRM recommendations alone appear several times a month, and the replies often turn into detailed discussions of each tool's trade-offs.
