Published on 06/16/2025 KOL Promotion Opportunities

Okay, scanning the post "I made a polling app called Pulse — would love advice on how to get the word out" (redditid: 1lcgbnw).

Identified Potential Collaborator:

  • The Creator of 'Pulse' (the Original Poster - OP): They might not be a big influencer, but they're an active community member and the mind behind a new product. Plus, they're openly asking for marketing advice, making them a perfect candidate for collaboration.

Reason for Identification:

  • Explicit Need: The OP is directly asking for "brutal advice" on marketing their new polling app, "Pulse." This shows they're open to external help and new strategies.
  • New Product: New apps often have limited marketing budgets and are usually open to partnerships that offer value in exchange for exposure or case studies.
  • Self-Promotional Awareness: The OP acknowledges potential self-promotion concerns, indicating a willingness to engage constructively within community guidelines.

Screening & Collaboration Suggestion (Leveraging Previous Analysis):

The previous analysis correctly identified this as an opportunity for a marketing tool, analytics platform, or growth marketing agency.

  • Target Collaborator (To approach the Pulse creator):

    • A company offering a Marketing Analytics Tool (e.g., Mixpanel, Amplitude, AppsFlyer-like services).
    • A Growth Marketing Agency specializing in app launches.
    • A provider of an App Store Optimization (ASO) Tool or Service.
    • A User Acquisition Platform (e.g., offering ad credits or managed campaigns).
  • Collaboration Proposal to 'Pulse' Creator:

    1. Offer: Provide the 'Pulse' app creator with free premium access to your marketing tool/analytics platform for a defined period (e.g., 3-6 months) OR offer a pro-bono/heavily discounted initial growth marketing consultation/campaign setup.
    2. Mutual Goal: Work together to implement strategies using the tool/service to demonstrably increase 'Pulse's user base, engagement, or visibility.
    3. The "Ask" (from Pulse creator): In return, the 'Pulse' creator agrees to:
      • Allow the collaborator to document the process and results.
      • Participate in creating a public case study.
      • Provide a testimonial if the collaboration is successful.
      • Potentially allow co-branded content or mentions (e.g., "Pulse grew X% using [Collaborator's Tool]").

Expected Benefits (for the Marketing Tool/Agency Collaborator):

  • Real-World Case Study: A documented success story of how their tool/service directly contributed to the growth of a new app. This is invaluable marketing collateral.
  • Testimonial: A positive endorsement from an app founder can build trust and credibility.
  • Content Marketing Material: The case study can be used on blogs, social media, email newsletters, and sales presentations.
  • Brand Exposure: Increased visibility within the app developer community, especially those looking for marketing solutions.
  • Lead Generation: The case study can attract other app developers facing similar challenges, leading to new customers for the tool/agency.
  • Product Feedback: Direct interaction with a new app developer can provide insights for improving the collaborator's tool or service.
