The roast
Alex Boyd built a tool to make posting on social media painless, which explains why he’s posted 14 times in a month to an audience of 30,000 who collectively couldn’t be bothered to engage. DemandBird is the perfect name for his company, because like a pigeon in a public square, he’s mostly just making noise until someone throws him a scrap of attention.
About Alex
Create, schedule, repurpose, and publish across all social platforms. Start a free trial today → demandbird.com (Do you run a social media agency? DM me to ask about our partner program. It's juicy.) More about what I'm building below 👇 Over the last decade, I've built and exited multiple companies. Social media has been at the core of the growth of my own brand as a founder, and of the company brands I've helped scale. I feel blessed and privileged now to be the co-founder of DemandBird.com (a Wildfront portfolio product). What are we building and why? Well, most social media tools are a pain to use. They're either built for stale corporate workflows (like pushing blog posts that nobody reads to your sales teams' profiles), they're over-priced, they don't have an AI-native MCP and/or API, or all of the above. So, while I want to bring the power of scaling social media to more businesses, I also recognize the insidious hamster wheel effect of total burnout that trying to scale social without a good system, can become. That's where DemandBird comes in. We're starting with tackling the scheduling and publishing problem: making it painless, easy, and fun to create and repurpose content, maintain a media library, and schedule and publish cross-platform. As we grow, we're going to release social listening and analytics features, plus some growth features (for the platforms that have APIs that will allow for things like engagement feeds and list building). That's the mission. If you've bought a product of mine before, you know: we start small and build from there. We treasure every customer, with amazing and high-quality support. We don't take shortcuts. I hope to be able to serve you this year! Thank you, Alex

Happy 4th of July and Happy Birthday to my wonderful wife Chelsea ❤️ Doing life with her is exactly what I want. We support each other, encourage each other, and make the foundations for a family. She has been on such a journey of building, creating, and rediscovering these past few years. It's beautiful to witness. Especially as her business keeps growing and the other community members of Becoming The Bridge continue to do amazing things in their own lives and careers. Happy birthday Chelsea 🥰

I think I know why LinkedIn posts are getting impressions 10-12 months after they were posted 👀👇 Building a social presence used to just be about getting seen on the platform itself. But that has changed: Reddit, LinkedIn, Youtube, TikTok, Instagram, and Quora all feed into both Traditional and AI Search. Throughout all of this, Search as a channel OVERALL is becoming more and more valuable. And so search traffic has increased (not decreased) despite AI Overviews leading to fewer *clicks* available from organic search than before LLMs. This makes SEO far from 'dead'. In fact it mea

When I sold $50k - $300k/yr agency services, people would follow me on social for months or years before sending a DM, "my CEO asked me to reach out". But selling DemandBird subscriptions for $30 - $900/mo takes far less time. (Smaller purchase = less risk) I can see someone's post or comment, engage with it, ask a curious question in the DMs, and then - only if there is a clear opening or invitation - bring up how our product would be an inescapably better version of what they're doing now. People are very appreciative of this approach, and yet it's low effort on both ends. When you do soc
