I Hate Social.
A social studio by Brian Nealon

I hate
social.

Give us 30 minutes on a call or half a day on camera. We turn it into a month of content that sounds like you, not like a robot that read a marketing blog.

(You can keep hating it. That's kind of the point.)

The problem

You know you should post.
You'd rather do your taxes.

"I hate social media, but I need to do it and I don't know how." I've heard that line for ten years, from founders, athletes, execs and small business owners.

So I built the fix around it. You do the part only you can do: talk. We handle the writing, the editing and the posting. Your voice, your stories, zero blank-page dread.

How it works

One shoot.
A month of content.

01

We film

Half a day on camera with our crew, or a 30-minute call. You tell the stories, we capture everything.

02

We write

We cut the footage into short videos and write every caption in your voice.

03

You approve

Nothing goes live without your OK. Quick edits included.

04

We post all month

One shoot fills your calendar for weeks. We schedule and publish it all.

On-site shoots

We come
to you.

Your office, your gym, your shop, your event. Our crew shows up for half a day and leaves with a month of content. Run by someone who's worked Giants, Knicks and Rangers game days, so we know how to catch the moment.

Half-day shoot
$2,000
  • Up to 4 hours on site
  • 10 edited short videos
  • 20 photos

Who's behind this

Hey, I'm Brian.

I've run social for 10+ years, for Fortune 50 brands, B2B tech and pro sports. Today I lead social at First American. Before that: Spectrum Business, VaynerMedia and the New York Giants. I still work Giants, Knicks and Rangers game days, and I co-founded ISO Unlimited, which produces athlete-driven events and charity work.

I started I Hate Social because I kept hearing the same line: "I know I need to post. I just hate doing it." Fair. That's what I'm here for.
