Can you promote in r/accounting?
Primarily for accountants and aspiring accountants to learn about and discuss their career choice. Advice and questions welcome.
The short answer
Do not promote or mention your product/company; instead provide neutral, helpful answers and follow community discussion without soliciting business or sending PMs.
What works here
- Ask and answer non-commercial accounting questions
- Participate in career/advice discussions
- Share neutral resources only when explicitly requested and non-promotional
What gets posts removed
- Posting about your product, service, or startup
- Advertising, solicitations, referral links, or job postings
- Contacting users via PM about subreddit comments
