The Social Playbook That Made This Atlassian Vendor Unmissable

How We Built Appfire’s Social Media Engine

Year
2024

This project was led by Fatcat’s founder, Jenn, during her time as the Brand and Social Media Strategist at Appfire. While not a Fatcat project, it shaped many of the systems and playbooks we now bring to our clients.

What we did

Social media wasn’t driving business outcomes.


There was no strategy behind what got posted, no product storytelling, and no format experimentation. Teams didn’t have performance data, content structure, or audience insights.

So, Fatcat stepped in to build Appfire’s first multi-channel content engine, one that not only looked polished but was tied to real business outcomes.

210.6% growth in YouTube views

YouTube wasn’t just an afterthought, it was built as an strategic pillar. We launched a brand-first but algorithm-conscious program that treated each video like a product: what problem does it solve, who’s it for, and how can we earn attention fast? This meant rethinking everything from scripting to structure to thumbnails. The result was a YouTube channel that actually reached the right people.

Structured content frameworks aligned with demand gen and narrative goals

To avoid reinventing the wheel with every post or asset, we built modular content frameworks, templates and message maps that made it easier for contributors across teams to create on-brand, on-goal content.

101.3% LinkedIn follower growth, 136.1% increase in post link clicks, 788.6% lift in video views

We restructured Appfire’s LinkedIn content around a simple principle: give people a reason to care. That meant ditching generic content and anchoring every post in usefulness, clarity, or insight — whether through product storytelling, thought leadership, or behind-the-scenes peeks.
