Quick Canadian Repair Search RSS Guide

🎯 Canadian-First Strategy: Search RSS Feeds

Key Insight: Don't monitor entire subreddits - search for repair keywords within Canadian communities to find targeted leads.

Step 1: Choose Canadian Cities

Start with major cities: Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary
Use canadian-subreddits.md (in same docs/ directory) for complete list
Focus on 2-3 cities you can actively monitor

Step 2: Create Keyword Search RSS Feeds

For each city, create targeted search feeds:

URL Format:

https://www.reddit.com/r/[subreddit]/search.rss?q=[keywords]&sort=new&type=link

High-Impact Keyword Combinations:

Toronto Repairs

# iPhone/MacBook specific
https://www.reddit.com/r/toronto/search.rss?q=iPhone+repair+OR+macbook+repair+OR+"screen+broken"&sort=new&type=link

# General device repairs
https://www.reddit.com/r/toronto/search.rss?q="won't+turn+on"+OR+"water+damage"+OR+"not+working"&sort=new&type=link

# Service requests
https://www.reddit.com/r/toronto/search.rss?q="looking+for+repair"+OR+"need+repair"+OR+"repair+shop"&sort=new&type=link

Vancouver Repairs

# Device specific
https://www.reddit.com/r/vancouver/search.rss?q=laptop+repair+OR+iPhone+repair+OR+"phone+broken"&sort=new&type=link

# Problem specific
https://www.reddit.com/r/vancouver/search.rss?q="won't+charge"+OR+"screen+broken"+OR+"water+damage"&sort=new&type=link

Calgary Repairs

# Broad repair search
https://www.reddit.com/r/calgary/search.rss?q=repair+OR+fix+OR+broken+OR+"not+working"&sort=new&type=link

# Specific devices
https://www.reddit.com/r/calgary/search.rss?q=iPhone+OR+laptop+OR+macbook+"repair"&sort=new&type=link

Add feeds to RSS reader (Feedly, Inoreader, etc.)
Set daily notifications for new posts
Review posts for relevance - focus on local repair requests
Subscribe to conversations of promising threads

Pro Tips for Success

Start Small: 3-5 search feeds per city maximum
Quality over Quantity: Better to monitor 2 cities well than 10 poorly
Engage Daily: Comment on 1-2 relevant threads per day
Track Results: Note which searches produce the best leads
Expand Gradually: Add cities as you master your current monitoring
