| Kandji’s $1B Content Anchor and Distribution Strategy | 24 Jul 2025 | 00:50:51 | |
In this episode of 95% Content, Erik Jacobson (CEO of Hatch.fm) talks with Sylvia LePoidevin (CMO at Kandji) about their evolution from targeting the 5% of buyers actively in-market to building a 95% content strategy for future buyers. Sylvia joined Kandji as employee #4 with zero customers, no website, and no brand, and has been leading their marketing strategy as CMO to help them become a billion-dollar device management and security platform. Here's what you'll learn in this episode:
Key Insight: The biggest marketing mistake is allocating budget proportional to where buyers currently are (5% in-market) rather than where the opportunity lies (95% not yet ready). Companies that start building relationships with the 95% early - before their 5% strategies hit diminishing returns - create an unfair advantage when those future buyers enter their consideration phase. — This episode is brought to you by Hatch.

| How GTM Fund Uses Content to Win the Best Founders | 19 Jun 2025 | 00:50:30 | |
In this episode of 95% Content, Erik Jacobson (CEO of hatch.fm) talks with Sophie Buonassisi (VP of Marketing at GTM Fund) about how they've built a content strategy that positions them as the #1 choice for founders seeking funding. GTM Fund operates on the thesis that "capital is commodity" - the real differentiator is go-to-market expertise. Sophie shares how they've leveraged this positioning into a content engine that builds relationships with founders 12-18 months before they're ready to raise capital, ensuring GTM Fund is top-of-mind when funding decisions are made. Sophie also reveals how they reacquired Sales Hacker (which their GP originally founded and sold to Outreach) and rolled it into their media brand GTM Now, creating a full-circle moment that accelerated their content strategy. Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
Key Insight: GTM Fund proves that when you have a strong company thesis (go-to-market is the remaining moat), you can build that differentiation directly into your content strategy. Instead of generic VC content, they focus on tactical, "real talk" GTM execution that serves their audience while reinforcing their unique value proposition. Their success comes from treating content as a "reverse funnel" - casting wide with valuable content, narrowing to subscriber capture, then expanding back out with additional resources and ecosystem connections. –

Their 4+ year content journey shows how patient, mission-driven content eventually builds an audience that trusts you as the category leader. –
