Prepared for Heyapollo · August 2026 · Built from public data only

Heyapollo's customers are already out there. Almost nobody can see them.

Your customers are out there right now, with or without you. We audited Heyapollo's public advocacy footprint: the advocates exist, the public record barely shows them, plus a model of what their voices are worth in feeds and AI answers. The audit is free. What it sets up is the decision below: whether to turn this into a channel you actually run.

Why this audit exists, and what happens when you claim it

You already know the customer's voice wins

Nobody has to sell you on word of mouth. It is the strongest voice in your market, and it is working for companies like Heyapollo whether anyone manages it or not. Belief was never the problem.

The missing piece was a system

Until now there has been no way to manage and amplify customer voice without ruining what makes it credible: assignment platforms turn it into advertising, portals turn it into homework. So at most companies the channel runs itself, by accident. The audit quantifies what that accident is worth at Heyapollo, champion by champion, with sources.

Kindling is that system

Champions enrolled, speaking on their own terms, measured, and paid fairly. Organic by design: we never assign content or set quotas, because the moment you do, buyers can tell. We build it with you, or you run it on the platform. The audit is step one, and it is yours free either way.

The best finds

What the public record says, and what it leaves on the table

Every claim below is public and footnoted. This is the teaser; the full audit carries the complete record.

01

The advocates exist. The public record barely shows them.

Public customer advocacy for Heyapollo is thin today, which means the buyers evaluating Heyapollo find little peer proof in feeds or AI answers.

What it means: the customer voice in your category is unclaimed. The first credible voices in a quiet category are rewarded disproportionately.
02

The feed your buyers read, and the answers AI gives them

B2B evaluation now starts in feeds and AI assistants. The Meltwater and LinkedIn study of 9.5 million AI citations shows the cited voices are overwhelmingly people, not brands. Whoever owns the credible customer voice in a category owns the shortlist conversation.

What it means: activating your champions is not a nice-to-have. It is how Heyapollo gets cited in the answers its buyers read.

So you can

Turn your best marketing channel into something you can measure, predict, and grow.

Your customers become your best salespeople: real users telling their peers, in their own words, why they chose Heyapollo. That is Advocacy-Led Growth, and it makes your highest quality channel measurable and predictable instead of accidental. Word of mouth always had the credibility. What it never had was infrastructure. Kindling helps you build the system for it.

Start with Heyapollo's free audit

Why now

Heyapollo's LinkedIn feed already carries attention from investors, partners, and the brand itself. What is missing is recurring customer voice in that same feed. You already know word of mouth is the best advertising there is; the difference between having it and running it as a channel is a system. Champions activated while the spotlight is on compound every dollar of attention the brand is earning. [source]

What activation looks like

A first ninety days, sized for a lean team

Weeks 1 to 2

Consolidate the scattered proof

Every quote, post, and endorsement pulled into a single champion bench with sources.

Weeks 3 to 6

Enroll the advocates already speaking

A program gives willing customers a cadence, a reason, and recognition. Their words, their feeds.

Weeks 7 to 12

Measure what leadership sees

Reach into the accounts still deciding, tracked per champion and per post, in terms a board trusts.

If you do nothing else

Ask the customers already on record to tell their networks why they chose Heyapollo. Their words, their feeds, once a month.

That advice is free and it works without us. Kindling exists for what comes after: tracking it, measuring it, and paying advocates fairly at scale.
