ost B2B marketers hear Reddit and think chaos.
Trolls. Downvotes. Angry communities.
That fear is exactly why there is almost zero quality B2B brand presence there...
Your competitors are scared of it.
That is the whole point.

Severely disappointed in @YamahaMotorUSA support. Throttle position sensor on my MT09 failed a year ago; I paid $400 to have the dealer replace it, then recall notice arrived. All Yamaha will pay for is $58 for the part. Guess my next bike won't be a Yamaha.
