Working With Moran
Content & Brand Operating Guide
How content and brand work runs at Acquisitions.com: the priorities, where content comes from, how Moran is involved, and how results are measured.
The brand is Acquisitions.com and Moran Pober together. Moran is one voice among several; the content operation runs every day, whether or not he records that week.
Priorities
In this order. When two things compete, the higher one wins.
Where we're going
From a few posts a week today to a two-channel media operation, modelled on Hormozi and Dan Martell.
Content sources
Five sources feed every account. Only the first needs Moran's time; the other four should carry most of the volume.
How Moran is involved
One recording session a week. Moran chooses the day, the place and the format; the output targets stay the same either way.
Weekly goals
The aim every week is as many testimonials, Shorts and long videos as possible. These are the minimums for months 1–3.
Retargeting ads
Facebook and Instagram retargeting, shown to people who have already watched or engaged, is part of this role. Moran sets the weekly budget; selection and testing sit with you.
Text posts from every video
Every video also becomes written posts for LinkedIn and X (Twitter), posted under Moran's name at fixed times. They cost no filming, and they show which ideas land before they become videos.
Comment-to-get posts (LinkedIn first)
At least once or twice a week, a post that offers one of our free tools: "Comment ROLLUP and I'll send you the calculator." Everyone who comments gets the link in a reply or a message, and each comment pushes the post to more people.
Lead magnets to rotate:
- Roll-up value calculator: what a business is worth alone vs. inside a group
- Deal and debt-service calculator on acquisitions.com
- Guide: AI after an acquisition
- More from Moran's list of existing tools and guides
How results are measured
Reported every Monday, in this order. Comments, likes and replies are worth reading for ideas, but they are not measures of success.
Also tracked: new followers on Moran Pober's own accounts (+25% in 3 months, 2× in 12).
Output targets, per day
Posts per day across all accounts. Every Short also goes to Instagram and TikTok the same day.
| Per day | Month 1 | Month 2 | Month 3 | Month 12 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shorts from Moran's sessions and the library | 2 | 4 | 6 | 10 |
| Testimonial Shorts | 1 | 2 | 2 | 3 |
| Shorts in total (minimum 3 a day from now on) | 3 | 6 | 8+ | 20+ |
| AI-character and UGC Shorts (optional, from week 3) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 10 |
| Clips (5–15 min) on the clips channel | 0 | 1 | 3 | 10 |
| Total video posts per day | 3 | 8 | 13 | 33 |
Plus at least one long video a week on Moran's main channel, and new retargeting ads every week.
Getting started, and every week after
Weeks 1–2: set up
- Access to Instagram (added as a user), YouTube Studio, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, the editors' channel and the shared Drive. Logins are shared by Moran directly, not over chat
- Install Claude Desktop and learn to use it for research, scripts, captions and planning. When unsure how to do something, ask Claude first
- Review the library: shortlist the strongest past videos
- Find all client testimonials and pick the best to cut first
- Set up the editor: work with an existing editor or hire a new one on Upwork. Moran shows the process he used before
- Learn Meta Business Manager and Ads Manager: how to duplicate a retargeting ad and upload a new video into it
- Get the list of our lead magnets and tools to use in posts
- Run Moran's first recording session (scripts are ready)
Every week after that
- New testimonial videos for retargeting
- New Shorts: 3 a day
- New retargeting ads up, weak ones paused
- New text posts on LinkedIn and X
- Briefs and feedback to the editors
- Quality kept high on everything that goes out
- Monday report to Moran
From week 3, optional: AI characters and AI-made Shorts, if you want to build them.
Ground rules
Reference models: Hormozi and Dan Martell
Both turn one or two recordings a week into posts on every platform, at fixed times. Martell is the model for now; Hormozi is where we're heading. Measured 20–21 Oct 2026. "Typical" = the middle value of each channel's last 30 uploads; the newest Shorts are still counting, so Short views read low.
| Platform | Alex Hormozi | Dan Martell |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube long | ~1 a week, ~18 min | 1 a week, Wednesdays, ~22 min |
| YouTube Shorts | ~10 a day | 2 a day, at fixed times |
| Second YouTube channel | @MoreMozi: ~15 clips + ~13 Shorts a day | @DanMartellDaily: 2 clips a day, ~3 min each |
| YouTube subscribers | 4.58M | 3.13M |
| Typical views per long video | ~302K | ~185K |
| Typical views per Short | ~10K | ~15K |
| Second channel: subscribers, views per clip | 157K subs · ~700 per clip · ~3K per Short | 15K subs · ~7.5K per clip |
| TikTok | ~7 a day | ~3 a day |
| ~3 a day, 5M followers | ~2–3 a day, 3.2M followers | |
| ~2 a day: a clip + one line | ~2–3 a day: the same Shorts + short text posts | |
| X | Short one-line lessons | Short one-line lessons |
| Podcast | 2 a week | The long video's audio |
What we take from them: one long recording feeds everything; fixed posting times; daily text posts on LinkedIn and X cost no filming; long conversations give the most clips.
