Can you promote in r/charlotte?
A community for Charlotte, North Carolina - a place for locals and visitors to share news, events, recommendations, and discuss what’s happening around the city. Keep posts relevant, include helpful details, and check recent or active threads before posting.
The short answer
Engage organically first, follow weekly/megathreads, disclose your affiliation if you mention your company, and get mod approval before overt promotion or links.
What works here
- Answer local questions with helpful, non-promotional information
- Participate in weekly threads (e.g., Things to Do, Shoutout) when applicable
- Share resources that clearly benefit the community with prior mod approval
- Mention your product/company for transparency while keeping the focus on community value
What gets posts removed
- Posting direct ads, product launches, or solicitations without mod approval
- Sharing surveys, forms, or requests for research participation
- Crowdfunding, donation requests, or mass/repeated promotional posts
- Posting low-effort promotional content or identical cross-posts
