Software that runs the work for you.
A solo-founder product studio out of Fort Collins, Colorado.
Software runs the work. The human keeps the taste.
Small businesses drown in operational busywork.
- Local businesses know social media drives revenue — but posting, engaging, and analyzing is a daily job nobody owns.
- Agencies solve it with labor: expensive, unscalable, founder-dependent.
- Software solves it with dashboards: another tool the owner has to operate.
AI agents stopped assisting and started operating.
The unlock isn't chat — it's agents that research, produce, schedule, publish, verify, and recover from errors on their own, with humans holding approval. That collapses an agency's labor cost into software margin. Trident Social is built natively on this model — software runs the work, and the human keeps the taste.
One flagship. Three prongs.
Not a deck — a working stack.
Client results from the agency arm, over the months Beau ran each account as its social media manager (the case studies are on the founder portfolio). Real publishing infrastructure (Meta, YouTube, Threads, X). Real billing and real users' sessions running today.
Three ways money comes in.
- Subscriptions — Trident Social plans + Day Pass; Trident Ops tenants. Recurring, high-margin.
- Take-rate — Trident NIL fees on escrowed deal flow, once payments launch.
- Done-for-you — Williams Media agency retainers feed the software and fund the runway.
Agency + software + audience, one loop.
The agency supplies real client problems and cash. The software productizes what the agency learns. The content (Playbook + founder brand) turns the method into distribution. Competitors have one of the three; the loop is the moat — and agent-run ops means near-zero marginal cost to run all of it.
Sell where we already stand.
- Trident Social: agency clients convert to seats; Fort Collins/NoCo hospitality niche first, then vertical templates.
- Trident NIL: CSU athlete network + the local businesses already on our client list — both sides of the marketplace, warm.
- Trident Ops: same local-business pipeline, different job-to-be-done.
- Playbook: founder content → email list → product funnel.
$10k MRR — then a team.
- Now: profitability sprint — convert agency book to subscriptions, land NIL's first escrowed deals once payments launch, 10 paying Ops tenants.
- At $5k MRR: first contractor hire (editor/ops) — founder time moves to product & audience.
- 2029: a portfolio of profitable, agent-run products; founder focused on high-level production for a large audience.
