    Scene from a social media production for Startups

    "We onboarded 10k users in 30 days. and here’s how we did it."

    Platform mix for your industry

    LinkedIn (35%), Twitter/X (20%), Instagram (20%), TikTok (15%), YouTube (10%). This selection isn't a one-size-fits-all channel plan: for Startups, Scale-ups, Innovation teams, we give each platform a clear job across discovery, deeper information and action. Organic content delivers topic and format signals; paid distribution only extends variants that fit the audience and the respective goal. Bold, ehrlich, build-in-public.

    Founder personal brand

    Build-in-public storytelling, LinkedIn mastery. For Startups, Scale-ups, Innovation teams we translate this building block into concrete topics, formats and sign-off steps. Fast learning cycles matter more than expensive one-off productions; messages are tested against real reactions. We define upfront what role the content plays in the customer journey and which reaction counts as a meaningful signal. That keeps the approach industry-specific, traceable and adjustable across multiple production cycles.

    Product Reels & demos

    TikTok and Reels for product-first storytelling. For Startups, Scale-ups, Innovation teams we translate this building block into concrete topics, formats and sign-off steps. Measure demo requests, activations, acquisition cost and qualified applications. We define upfront what role the content plays in the customer journey and which reaction counts as a meaningful signal. That keeps the approach industry-specific, traceable and adjustable across multiple production cycles.

    Lean paid tests

    Fast hypothesis tests with small budgets. For Startups, Scale-ups, Innovation teams we translate this building block into concrete topics, formats and sign-off steps. Fast learning cycles matter more than expensive one-off productions; messages are tested against real reactions. We define upfront what role the content plays in the customer journey and which reaction counts as a meaningful signal. That keeps the approach industry-specific, traceable and adjustable across multiple production cycles.

    Seasonality & timing

    Q4 weaker due to the investment cycle, Q1/Q2 strong. That's why we plan seasonal topics not as a single push but backward from the relevant decision point. Concept, production, sign-off and the learning phase each get enough lead time. Outside peak periods, recurring formats keep visibility stable and feed insights into the next focus.

    Content production for Startups

    Production is built around real situations from Startups. To do that, we bundle Founder videos, Product demos, Build-in-public, Customer problems into repeatable series, plan variants before the shoot and clarify sensitive claims and sign-offs early on. A single production day yields different openings, lengths and aspect ratios, so the same cut doesn't land unchanged on every channel.

    How we get started with you

    At the start, we prioritize make the product understandable and win early adopters. In the first phase of work, we review existing content, landing pages, sign-off paths and measurement options. A 90-day plan then takes shape with topics, formats, a production rhythm and clear responsibilities. The first publications serve as a solid learning phase; after that, topics, variants and distribution are adjusted based on the agreed metrics. Results always depend on the offer, starting position, budget, internal sign-offs and consistent execution; that's why we don't promise blanket results.

    Lean setups from €3,500/month for founder content plus a light paid layer.

    For Make the product understandable, Win early adopters, Support hiring, individual posts are rarely enough. What works is a coordinated system of strategy, repeatable formats, ongoing production and targeted distribution. Which building blocks are actually needed depends on the offer, target group, existing material and your team's resources.

    LinkedIn (35%), Twitter/X (20%), Instagram (20%), TikTok (15%), YouTube (10%). We treat this selection as a starting point. What matters is where Startups, Scale-ups, Innovation teams discover, compare and ultimately act. Each chosen channel gets its own role and matching formats instead of the same post being published identically everywhere.

    At the start, we prioritize make the product understandable and win early adopters. In the first phase of work, we review existing content, landing pages, sign-off paths and measurement options. A 90-day plan then takes shape with topics, formats, a production rhythm and clear responsibilities. The first publications serve as a solid learning phase; after that, topics, variants and distribution are adjusted based on the agreed metrics. The exact scope stays transparent: responsibilities, delivery volumes, sign-offs and reporting cadence are agreed before production begins.

    The effort depends on the number of channels, production scope, creator involvement, paid media management and sign-off loops. After the initial call, you get a transparent proposal with clearly scoped services instead of a flat standard package.

    Measure demo requests, activations, acquisition cost and qualified applications. Reach and engagement serve as early signals, but they don't replace business-relevant metrics. Before the start, we therefore define which action counts, how it's tracked and at what cadence a solid evaluation is possible.

    Fast learning cycles matter more than expensive one-off productions; messages are tested against real reactions. We also clarify usage rights, consent, sign-offs and sensitive claims before publication. That keeps production fast without sacrificing accuracy or trust for short-term attention.
