📡THE OFFBRAND MEDIA NETWORK

A daily media ecosystem for DTC operators — built in public.

offbrand is a daily content stack — newsletter, livestream, clips, podcast, long-form video, and documentaries — reaching the same audience from different angles, every weekday. Everything written, recorded, and presented by one person in his actual voice.

Starting from zero. Shipping in public. You can watch the whole thing get built.

12.5HR STREAM
one session · 22 guests

Ten years in DTC ops across agency, brand, and SaaS seats. 150+ podcast episodes hosted. One 12.5-hour livestream with 22 guests. offbrand is what happens when that experience gets compounded into one daily stack.

WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT
🎙️
One voice, every channel

Not a media company with freelance writers. Every word, every episode, every stream is Matt — the same person your audience already trusts. Sponsors get that trust by association, not interruption.

📅
Daily frequency, daily reach

Most creator sponsorships are weekly or monthly. offbrand touches the audience every weekday — newsletter at dawn, stream at 7 AM, clips throughout the day, podcast on the commute.

🚫
No ads in the product

offbrand will never run banner ads, pop-ups, or programmatic placements. Sponsorships are the only way brands appear — every mention is curated, not automated.

WHAT'S COMING

Six content properties shipping at different cadences. Some shipping soon; some further out. All under one voice.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Founding sponsors lock their rate before the numbers climb. If you're building something operators use, this is the cheapest it'll ever be to get in front of them daily.

GOOD FIT TO SPONSOR
DTC / ecommerce SaaS tools (analytics, email, SMS, attribution)
Agencies and services serving DTC brands
Creative tools and platforms operators already use
3PL, fulfillment, and supply chain providers
Communities, events, and education in the ecomm space
Anyone who wants to reach operators, not consumers
NOT A FIT
Consumer products selling directly to the audience
Anything requiring programmatic or banner ad placement
Brands that need guaranteed impression counts pre-launch
Categories that don't serve DTC operators
Anyone uncomfortable with an audience that's still growing
