Step 1: Create a Targeted Audience
An "Audience" in GummySearch is a collection of subreddits relevant to your brand. This ensures that you're only monitoring conversations from your target users.
From your GummySearch dashboard, click the Add button to create a new audience.
Give your audience a descriptive name, like "My Brand's Audience."
Add relevant subreddits where your customers are likely to hang out. For example, if you have a CRM for startups, you might add
r/startups,r/entrepreneur, andr/saas.
Step 2: Search for Your Brand
Once your audience is set up, you can start looking for mentions of your brand.
Navigate to your newly created audience.
In the Keyword Search bar, type in your brand name.
Step 3: Analyze Conversation Patterns
The Patterns tab helps you identify recurring themes in conversations. This is useful for spotting trends, feature requests, and competitive intelligence.
Step 4: Gauge Audience Sentiment
The Sentiment tab gives you an at-a-glance overview of how people feel about your brand. You can see a breakdown of positive, negative, and neutral mentions, as well as a timeline of sentiment.
Don't be afraid of negative feedback! It's a valuable source of information for improving your product and addressing customer concerns.
Step 5: See All Product Feedback in Your Category
The Products tab is an additional place where you can see feedback on all products in your category, including your own. You can see reviews, ratings, and direct quotes from Reddit users to understand how your product stacks up against the competition.
Step 6: Track Your Brand and Competitors
To stay on top of new mentions, you can track your brand name and related keywords. GummySearch will then notify you of new conversations.
In the Keyword Search results, click the Track icon (🔔).
You can also track your competitors' brand names to monitor their conversations and identify opportunities.
Configure your notification preferences to receive alerts via email, Slack, or Discord.
You've now set up a system for monitoring your brand on Reddit. Regularly check your GummySearch dashboard to stay informed about what your customers are saying!
