Can you promote in r/cfo?
Business finance related news, advice and conversation.
The short answer
Contribute as a peer with demonstrated professional history, answer publicly without mentioning or linking your product or soliciting contact.
What works here
- general finance advice and conversation
- discussing how peers use AI in non-promotional terms
- providing insights based on professional experience
What gets posts removed
- posting about your company, product, service, or website
- asking for users to DM you or trying to generate leads
- asking for feedback or product-building help for an AI product
- veering AI discussions into product promotion or including links
Where this comes from
No promotion
Explicit ban on promoting your business, services, or website and prohibition on ‘dm me’ solicitations.
No AI marketing
Prohibits asking about pain points for an AI product or seeking help building one (prevents research/lead generation).
AI allowed but not promotional
AI use cases are allowed only as general discussion; product promotion in AI threads leads to bans.
Require professional history
Expectations that commenters show established professional background and bring value — implies low tolerance for obvious marketing accounts.
