Headline template: WeNatal’s Reddit opportunity is not generic prenatal vitamins. It is helping couples prepare before TTC without spiraling.
State the wedge: couples-first preconception preparation. Include the denominator (15,027 posts) and the qualified segment (764 posts).
Show provenance for demand, fit, couple/partner signal, prenatal signal, and trust confusion.
Explain that Reddit already has peer advice and clinical referrals; WeNatal’s role is a calm, evidence-bound decision layer.
Use 8-12 sourced quotes. No paraphrase-only proof.

| Week 1 | Listen and reply without links in r/waiting_to_try and r/tryingtoconceive. | Helpful replies accepted, no moderator pushback. |
| Weeks 2-3 | Publish research-style anchor posts: “What 15,027 posts show about preparing before TTC.” | Saves, comments, follow-up questions. |
| Weeks 4-5 | Offer a free couples preconception checklist and doctor-question guide. | Checklist completions and partner shares. |
| Week 6 | Turn top questions into AEO pages and Reddit ad tests. | Return visits, email capture quality, post-assist conversions. |

|---|---|---|
| r/waiting_to_try | 335 posts | “What to do 90 days before TTC: a couples checklist.” |

| Objection | Response template |
|---|---|
| “This is supplement marketing.” | Agree that no supplement guarantees conception. Offer a checklist for questions, timing, and evidence boundaries. |
| “My OB said any prenatal is fine.” | Validate the baseline. Explain that the pain point is choice confidence, tolerability, and partner preparation, not replacing medical advice. |
| “Why does the male partner need anything?” | Use non-blaming language: fertility is a couple process, and sperm health questions belong in preconception planning. |
| “I’m too nauseous to take pills.” | Do not push product. Give doctor-first questions and format/timing options. |
| “Postpartum is survival mode.” | Offer low-friction recovery support and nutrition simplification, not a demanding regimen. |
Publish the research, answer the questions, and make the product the natural next step only after Reddit sees WeNatal as useful.
