Do you own a transportation or 3PL business doing $3M or more in revenue? Visit www.bizexitgrow.com to find out how we can help you grow, scale, and exit at maximum value.

One raw story can become a carousel, a blog post, a newsletter, and a funder update, if you build the right system.

In this episode, we break down how to use AI to create content at scale, why context beats clever prompts, and how small teams now operate like big ones, with Sivakumar Chellamuthu (Siva), CTO and co-founder of Poster Child.ai who previously built products at TikTok and Meta.

Siva helped build TikTok’s Photo Mode for hundreds of millions of users. He now applies that scale mindset to AI-powered storytelling and fundraising.

We cover:

– How Siva went from nonprofit work in India to TikTok and Meta to founding Poster Child.
– Why building a strong data layer matters more than wrapping an LLM around a workflow.
– How the same story should change for each channel, audience, and outcome.
– The eight content types every brand should rotate to keep a feed diverse.
– Why LinkedIn and Instagram serve very different audiences and goals.
– The biggest AI mistake: using it like a search engine with no context.
– How dynamic prompts, evals, and feedback loops improve output quality.
– Siva’s tip: build the rules once so one piece of raw content reaches many channels.
