Overlap for Venture Capital

Your partners talk for a living. Almost none of it travels.

A campaign that turns the podcast, the fireside and the conference panel into short-form reach on accounts the firm owns — billed on the views it delivers.

    How It Runs

    Three inputs, then it runs.

    Connect the firm’s accounts, set what may be said and by whom, and choose the monthly ceiling. Cutting, captioning, publishing and reporting happen from there.

    Step 01

    Link the firm’s accounts

    Connect the accounts the campaign publishes to across the nine platforms we support — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Threads, Snapchat and Bluesky. A partner’s own handle and the firm’s page can run side by side, each staying with whoever owns it.

    Step 02

    Set the firm’s rules

    Choose the look, the caption voice, which handle posts where, and the boundaries — an unannounced deal, a portfolio company that has not gone public with it, anything that has to go past compliance. Off-brief clips are held for review.

    Step 03

    Define a budget

    Set the monthly ceiling and agree the CPM. Spend follows delivered views and never runs beyond the limit you chose.

    Reputation compounds, campaigns do not

    A sponsorship ends when the event does. A channel does not: the handles, the followers and every clip stay with the firm — so the audience a partner builds this year is still listening the next time they have something to say.

    Yours as a front door

    An owned audience is where founders meet the firm before a warm intro does — on the firm’s handles rather than a platform it rents.

    Yours to point anywhere

    A portfolio launch, a job board, a fund announcement, a call for founders. The channel is the firm’s to aim.

    Yours to keep reaching

    Followers earned on one episode hear the next thesis. Every month compounds instead of restarting at zero.

    Yours to run either way

    Keep running with us, hand the accounts to your platform team, or leave them live. The login goes with the firm.

    The Economics

    A retainer buys hours. This buys views.

    An agency invoices the work — hours booked, clips shipped, watched or not. We price the result: a ceiling, a rate per thousand views, and nothing charged for reach that never landed.

    Spend = delivered views ÷ 1,000 × agreed CPM

    Questions firms ask

    Recordings you already publish — the podcast, fireside chats, conference panels, portfolio events, webinars. Nothing has to be filmed for the campaign.

    You set a monthly ceiling and agree a CPM between $0.50 and $2.50. Spend follows the views actually delivered and stops at the ceiling — there are no production fees, no minimum deliverables and nothing charged for reach that did not land.

    No. Campaigns run on the firm’s public channels using content you already publish, and nothing here is written for or sent to investors. Where a clip touches something that has to be cleared, guidelines hold it for review before it posts rather than after.

    Yes, and most do. A partner’s handle and the firm’s page can run in the same campaign under different rules, and each account stays with whoever it belongs to.

    From the platforms’ own analytics on posts published to your accounts, which you can see for yourself in the same dashboards. Every view is organic — nothing is boosted or bought — and a clip that was never posted is never billed.

    You do, and nothing is switched off. The handles, the followers and every clip published to them stay with the firm, the posts are not taken down when billing stops, and the accounts are never repurposed for anyone else.
