Hot and fresh industry-specific content creation, delivered to your destination of choice.

Be it written, audio or video, the Brian Hastie Content Truck™ will be at your door when you need it most.

Brian Hastie

Founders: You’re not scared of the camera. 
You’re scared of being seen.

I’ve seen it in every founder and CEO’s eyes on day one when we start working together at Demandii.

They say, “I just need help with creating and posting content.” 

But when the camera turns on, what shows up isn’t lack of content.

It’s fear.

Fear of judgment. 
Fear of sounding stupid. 
Fear of finally showing what they really think.

It’s normal to feel that way if you’ve never had to be in a position to “deliver”.

(I used to be the same way before I put myself through dozens of hours of practice to get comfortable with “showing up.” And then sometimes that self-doubt creeps up, but I've had enough training to be able to pause and let muscle memory kick in)

That’s why we practice together in private.
Only the client and I get to see the end result until they’re good with scheduling it.

Because once you stop performing and start talking like a human, the whole game changes.

You don’t just get better videos.

You get a voice you actually trust.

And that’s what separates loud founders from real ones.

Confidence in delivery. Clarity in thought. Trust in communication.

Helping busy CEOs create all their short-form content from a monthly 1 hr interview. -> Demandii.com + podcaster and writer about all things tech and pop culture

Fact: People generally forget about 90% of what they’ve learned after a seven-day span. What does that mean for founders? Find out now:

What makes exceptional founders different from great ones? Hint: It’s all about the story (or stories) they tell.

We're growing!
Message me if you're interested.

I help CEOs create all their snackable LinkedIn content in 1 hr/month -> Demandii.com

We are hiring (again)!  Highlights:
-> $90,000 (CAD dollars)
-> Up to $39,000 in performance-based bonuses available!
-> 5-weeks vacation (from day 1)
-> Tons of autonomy
-> Work from Home (100% virtual)
-> Full-time (Mon-Fri)

This is great for agency AEs or B2B marketing strategy directors/leaders tired of the corporate hamster wheel. 

We are looking for people who are great at:

- Building rapport quickly and getting people to open up
- Confidently be able to run a call in a structured way
- Are comfortable sitting at the executive table
- Can coach a CEO (without being intimidated)
- Understand B2B enterprise sales cycles
- Love fast-paced environments
- Understand executive KPIs

Day-to-day responsibilities:

- You will interview (digitally) busy CEOs
- You'll manage a client book of 10-12 clients
- You'll turn that interview into snackable social media content (videos, text, images)

Your team will include two post-production people who will help with administrative tasks, graphic design, video editing, etc.

Bonus points if you have the following experience:

- worked at an agency before
- social copywriting experience
- have participated in Meme battles
- have demand gen experience with B2B
- understand the INs and OUTs of social networking & social selling
- can go head-to-head with other executives & understand C-Suite objectives
- know how to sell into complicated high-ticket B2B enterprise sales environments

If you have all the above experience, I'll (probably) hire you on the spot.

As long as you are not boring or beige. You must have some personality to fit in with our oddball culture.

Do not apply if:

- if you do not live in Canada
- if you don't love social media
- if you can't manage a calendar
- if you can't work independently
- if you don't even know the different C-Suite titles
- if you don't have any B2B marketing or sales experience
- if you are not competitive with board games (you’re out!)


If this sounds like your dream career, then here is how you apply:

1—Leave an interesting comment on this post (or DM if you are worried about your workplace finding out you are applying for this killer career opportunity).

2—Email Matthew at Matthew@demandii.com with a subject line that stands out.

3—In the email, explain why you are perfect for the job with a 60-second selfie video. The video does not need any fancy editing. If you can't make a 60-second video of yourself, you will not be right for this role.

4—In the email, include a link to your LI profile in that email.

5—Do not attach your resume. We don't read them. If you send it to us, we will ding you a point for not being able to follow instructions.

PS—Applying is a small test of your attention to detail. If you can't do this, trust me, you won't be able to do this job.

Founders who partner with the right media coach can unlock much more than great content assets. Here’s what else they can expect:

I used to think our clients had “messaging” problems when it came to talking to their prospects.
But... they didn’t.

They actually had translation problems.

They and their teams would tell the same story in every sales call.
Same deck, same examples, same phrasing.
This was an issue for those clients selling into mid-market buyer, or an enterprise team.

And every time, they’d say the same thing afterward:
“It’s weird, some people totally get it, others just stare blankly.”

And it was always the same positions who got it, and the same they couldn't win over.

Here’s the truth I learned working with founders at Demandii:
The message isn’t broken. The mirror is.

Think about a B2B SaaS product and how a founder pitches it.

Same story, over and over, and some folks will be invested and others will just write you off.

The CFO doesn’t care about your bold vision. They want risk off the table.
The CMO wants a story they can repeat to their team.
The CTO just wants to know your tool won’t break their stack.

Same product. Same offer.
Completely different story.

At Demandii, we help founders build the muscle to create story systems that flex, with one strong point of view, translated across every pertinent ICP.

We pull your core truths out of your head, then show you how to tell it three different ways depending on who’s across the table.

When that clicks, everything changes.
You stop pitching. You start connecting with the different stakeholders you meet during the sales process.

Because the best founders don’t say more.
They just say it in the language their buyer already speaks.

Most founders think they need more content.
What they really need, though, is clarity in thinking. Here's what I mean:

I once started working a client… and it was tough.

Month one: Each video was a 5-6 minute take.
Lots of pauses. Restarts.
Second guesses.
“Um”s  and “ah”s everywhere.

(It was only natural, too. Learning to speak in 60-90 second bursts and being concise are some of the hardest things you have to nail.)

But the good news is that we all need to start somewhere.

Six months later...

He’s at an industry event, with a 5-minute spot onstage talking about who he helps and how he helps solve his customers' problems.

And that 5-minute spot was clicking with his audience of both peers and prospects. 

How do we know that?

When he finished, he manage to get a few leads from folks coming up to speak to him.

Practicing privately and getting rewarded publicly.

That's an added benefit of having a media coach.

You can't direct a movie and act in it at the same time. (Very very few people can do this properly. And even then they could benefit from having an outside pro on their side.)

At Demandii, yes, you get LinkedIn posts.

But more than that, you find your voice.

You learn to think clearly under pressure.

You start sounding like the founder people trust to lead.

This is what a media coach does.

And this is what most founders are missing.

There’s one thing that exceptional founders are able to do that helps them close more deals (especially when selling into mid-market and enterprise).

Founders and CEOs partner with Demandii because they want content. What they actually get out of their time with us, though, is something else too:

The Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve says people forget 90% of what they learn in seven days. What does that mean for founders?

Their buyers don’t remember their clever new positioning from last week.

Most can’t even recall your company’s name.

So founders rewrite their message every quarter, thinking it keeps things fresh.

Trying to attract (and retain) eyeballs.

In reality, they’re erasing the very memory they’re trying to build.

Nike still says “Just do it.”
KFC still says “Finger lickin’ good.”

They stick with what works.

In a world where attention fades fast, only persistence makes you memorable.

If you’re tired of repeating yourself, good. You’re finally starting to brand.

And being persistent is the game when it comes to creating your personal brand, too.

Being able to confidently state who you help and how you help them and making sure that message is clear, distinct and repeated means you can burrow yourself into prospects' minds.

Here’s the real takeaway: Keep it simple, and stay consistent.

Better to hammer the point home and have people remember you over time, than to feel like you’re being too clever, but ultimately forgettable.

Founders and CEOs who are looking to refine their messaging need to understand this one basic principle (that also applies to creating content):

“Brian, why do you get me to tell the same story over and over again?”
My client looked slightly annoyed. 

He was a founder I was working with, and this was our fourth month of creating content.

He wasn’t alone, either.

This question comes up all the time after the first few months of helping founders create content, once they start to understand the rhythm.

I realized I had failed him and the end result was a lack of connecting the dots about what we were doing and why it mattered.

Dots I should have already looped together.

I hadn’t taken the time to break down the formula for effective founder-led content, and while it feels like it’s the “same story” over and over, it’s actually not.

The reality is this:

When you create content, all roads lead to the founder’s solution, aka their platform or service.

But the road to get there is where the gold lies, especially when you’re selling into mid-market and enterprise, where you need to multi-thread your relationships.

How do you do that?

You pick an avatar (the ICP you want to speak to), and come up with an analogy (for example, a problem you’ve seen the same ICP in another company face) and tie it together to your solution.

The best founders I’ve worked with become armed with a ton of analogies that make their talking points personalized.

Then they deploy them at just the right time, to the right person.

And then when it’s time to get to the crucial contract signing stage, every stakeholder on the ICP’s side feels heard, seen, and understood.

There’s power in being able to learn how to tell those stories effectively.

What makes a successful personal brand for founders vs. a failing one? It’s all about reverse-engineering your end result.
