Can you promote in r/torontostarts?

Information to help support and educate startups in Canada hosted by entrepreneur community TorontoStarts and the Startup Coach

The short answer

Engage with helpful, non-promotional replies first; if you mention your product, keep it brief, relevant, and framed as a solution or for feedback rather than a sales pitch.

What works here

  • participate in discussions about startups
  • share resources or advice relevant to Canada startups
  • ask for feedback when clearly framed as seeking help

What gets posts removed

  • direct solicitation or hard-selling in initial replies
  • posting links/offers without prior community engagement
  • assuming vendor-friendly reception without explicit rules
