Looking to attract warm leads on LinkedIn?

You've probably heard the typical advice:

→ Send countless AI cold messages
→ Post daily for months
→ Spend hours engaging in comments

Here's the truth: 

Without the right strategy, you might end up with nothing after 12 months. 

But don't worry, you're not alone if that's been your experience.

However, using LinkedIn effectively can consistently generate warm leads.

If you're willing to put in the necessary effort and apply a proven system (like mine).

Wondering what to do next? 

Just shoot me a message with "Leads" and let's discuss whether my approach might be the right fit for you.

Growing on LinkedIn is tough.

(We've all been there)

- You post consistently but get zero engagement.
- Your content gets buried in the algorithm.
- You watch others blow up while you stay stuck.

And in those moments, it's easy to quit.
To think you're not cut out for this or that it's not worth it.

But here's the truth:

Your consistency matters more than instant results.

Growing slowly doesn't mean you're doing it wrong.

It means you're building something real.

It means asking:

→ "Am I providing actual value?"
→ "What can I learn from creators who've made it?"

That shift in approach?

It's what separates the ones who break through from the ones who give up.

When others quit after a month, you keep showing up.

That's when real growth, and real opportunities, happen.

Here's how to actually do it:
→ Comment on 5-10 posts daily before posting your own. Engage genuinely with creators in your niche. The algorithm rewards active community members, and you'll build real relationships that drive engagement back to your content.

→ Analyze your top 3 posts every month and double down on what worked. Look at the format, topic, and hook. Stop guessing what your audience wants and let the data tell you. Then create more of what actually resonates.

→ Set a 90-day minimum commitment, not a 30-day test. Most people quit right before the algorithm starts recognizing their consistency. Mark it on your calendar. No quitting allowed until day 90. That's when you'll have enough data and momentum to see real results.

Building Posthero from 0 to $100k MRR | Sharing how to build Content Growth Engines

LinkedIn growth isn't what most people think it is.

It's not about posting every day.
Or chasing viral moments.
Or obsessing over follower counts.

I spent 6 months trying to crack the LinkedIn algorithm.

Posting daily.
Testing different formats.
Analyzing top creators' content.

My follower count grew to 9.8K.
Engagement was decent.
But something felt off.

The growth was hollow.

I was getting likes and comments from people who'd never buy from me.
My DMs were full of spam and pitch-slaps.
And worst of all? I was exhausted.

So I changed my entire approach.

Here's what actually moved the needle:

→ Stopped posting for vanity metrics
→ Started posting for my ideal customer only
→ Focused on depth over breadth

The shift was uncomfortable.

My engagement dropped initially.
Growth slowed down.
But then something interesting happened.

The RIGHT people started showing up:

→ Inbound leads increased by 40%
→ Conversion rate doubled
→ Built genuine relationships with 5+ ideal clients

Here's the truth about LinkedIn growth that nobody talks about:

Quality beats quantity.
Relevance beats reach.
Revenue beats vanity metrics.

You don't need 50K followers to build a successful business on LinkedIn.
You need the RIGHT 500 people paying attention.

The algorithm rewards consistency.
But your bank account rewards strategy.

Stop chasing growth for growth's sake.
Start building an audience that actually matters.

Turn your daily tasks into content gold: The LinkedIn flywheel method

(this is how I create 100+ posts without "trying")

Most people think content creation is separate from their work.

I think content creation IS the work.

Here's my flywheel:

1. Do the work
↳ Client calls
↳ Strategy sessions
↳ Problem-solving moments

2. Document the insights
↳ What question did they ask?
↳ What breakthrough happened?
↳ What mistake did I almost make?

3. Turn insights into posts
↳ 1 client question = 1 post idea
↳ 1 strategy session = 3 post ideas
↳ 1 mistake = 5 post ideas minimum

Real example from last week:

A client asked me "How do I stay consistent when I'm busy?"

That single question became:
→ A post about time-blocking for LinkedIn
→ A post about the myth of "finding time"

2 pieces of content from 1 conversation.

The best part?

Your daily work is already creating content.
You're just not capturing it yet.

Start here:

Keep a notes app open during every call.
Write down every good question someone asks.
Screenshot every breakthrough moment you have.

Then at the end of your day spend 10 minutes turning those notes into post ideas.

You'll never run out of content again.

Because you're not "creating content" anymore.
You're just sharing what you're already doing.

That's the flywheel.

Work creates insights.
Insights create content.
Content creates more work.

Repeat forever.

What's 1 task you did today that could become a post?

You can buy LinkedIn Premium.
Can't buy credibility.

You can buy ads.
Can't buy trust.

You can buy followers.
Can't buy real connections.

Gary Vee nailed it:

"Your personal brand is your reputation. And your reputation in perpetuity is the foundation of your career."

I know people with 50K followers who get:

• Zero engagement
• No opportunities
• Fake relationships

And people with 2K followers who have:

• Real conversations
• Inbound deals
• Genuine community

The difference?
They earned their audience.

Every day you choose:

Copy or create.
Lurk or engage.
Sell or serve.

Small actions. Big impact.

A strong brand = 1000 posts
A real network = 1000 comments
A trusted voice = 1000 truths
A thriving career = 1000 connections

All earned.
Never bought.

P.S. To all founders and creators - Posthero.ai helps you write LinkedIn content that stops the scroll and starts conversations with your ideal clients.

90% of AI content gets ignored on LinkedIn.

(here's the framework that fixes it)

You can spot AI-generated posts from a mile away:

"Unlocking the power of..."
"In today's fast-paced world..."
"Here are 5 game-changing strategies..."

They all sound the same.
They feel hollow and robotic.
They get scrolled past in 0.3 seconds.

The problem isn't AI itself.

The problem is people are using AI to replace their voice instead of amplifying it.

I've been testing this for 6 months now.

I write content 10x faster than before.
My engagement is up 340% from last year.
People tell me "this sounds exactly like you."

Here's my human-AI collaboration framework:

1. Brain dump first (always human)
• I voice-record my raw thoughts for 5 minutes
• No filter. Just me talking like I'm at coffee with a friend
• This captures my actual voice and perspective

2. AI organizes and writes draft (not final version)
• I feed my raw thoughts into AI
• Ask it to structure my ideas clearly
• But I never let it add new ideas or examples

3. The authenticity filter (back to human)
• I rewrite some sentences in my own words
• I add personal stories AI doesn't know about
• I remove any phrase that sounds "corporate"

4. The smell test
• Read it out loud to yourself
• If you wouldn't say it in person? Delete it.
• If it sounds like everyone else? Rewrite it.

The golden rule:

AI should make you faster.
Not make you sound like everyone else.

Your voice is your competitive advantage.
Your stories are what people remember.
Your perspective is what builds trust.

AI is the assistant. You're still the author.

Here's your checklist to steal:

Before you hit publish ask yourself:

□ Did I share a personal experience?
□ Would I say this exact thing out loud?
□ Does this sound like me or like ChatGPT?
□ Did I include specific details only I know?
□ Would my best client recognize my voice?
□ Am I teaching something I've actually done?

If you answered "no" to any of these?

Go back and add more of yourself into it.

The future of content isn't human + AI.
Speed without sacrifice.

That's the framework.

P.S. I use Posthero.ai to create content — I think it has one of the best content generation out there (but I’m biased :))

I used to send 100 cold connection requests per week.
Most ignored me completely. Then I switched to trigger-based outreach.

P.S. The sunsets have been amazing this week.

After analyzing 10,000+ viral LinkedIn posts and growing my own following from 0 to 9.8K, here are the 5 brutally honest LinkedIn growth tactics that "experts" sell in their $3,000 courses:

1. Post consistently (yeah, that's it – 3-5x per week)
2. Hook is crucial (really!)
3. Write like a human, not a corporate robot
4. Comment on others before expecting comments back
5. Stop overthinking and just hit publish

That's literally it.

No secret algorithm hacks.
No magic posting times.
No fancy tools required.

SAVE THIS POST.

If you made it this far and you're still waiting for the "real" secrets... that's the problem right there.
__

P.S. I use Posthero.ai to create content — I think it has one of the best content generation out there (but I’m biased :))

I've been growing on LinkedIn for 18 months now.

And I'm going to be honest with you.

Most of the "growth hacks" people share? They're bullshit.

Not because they don't work.

But because nobody actually does them consistently.

You've seen the advice:
→ Post every day at 8am
→ Comment on 50 posts before breakfast
→ Engage for 2 hours daily
→ Write viral hooks

Sounds great in theory.

But here's what actually happens:

You post for 3 days straight. Get 12 likes. Feel discouraged.
You comment on 5 posts. Run out of things to say.
You batch content on Sunday. Use it all by Tuesday.

I've been there. Multiple times.

The truth nobody wants to admit?

Growing on LinkedIn isn't about doing more.

It's about doing less, but doing it right.

Here's what actually moved the needle for me:

→ I stopped chasing viral posts
→ Started sharing real stories from my work
→ Connect with 20 new people each day
→ Engaged with 10 people I actually wanted to connect with

Not sexy. Not a hack. Not fast.

But sustainable.

The creators who win long-term aren't the ones doing everything.

They're the ones who found their rhythm and stuck with it.

Your rhythm won't look like mine.

And that's exactly the point.

Stop trying to follow someone else's playbook.

Build your own.

P.S. To all founders and creators - Posthero.ai helps you write LinkedIn content that stops the scroll and starts conversations with your ideal clients.

The person you will be in 12 months depends on:

- The content you consume
- The routines you follow
- The people you surround yourself with
- The habits you cultivate
- The conversations you participate in

I'd add one more:

The audience you build.

5 years ago, I had the expertise.
I had the work ethic.
I had the ideas.

But I had no audience.

Which meant:

→ No opportunities coming to me
→ No credibility in the market
→ No distribution for my work

Today, my LinkedIn audience is responsible for:

→ 80% of my business opportunities
→ Partnerships I never could have cold emailed my way into

Same person.
Different reach.
Different life.

Building an audience isn't vanity. It's one of the most strategic inputs you can control.

I spent 2 years figuring out how to do it right.

It takes time, but totally worth it.

P.S. To all founders and creators - Posthero.ai helps you write LinkedIn content that stops the scroll and starts conversations with your ideal clients.

The most overused LinkedIn strategy ever.

I was chatting with a friend who is a founder in a B2B startup.

He told me he gets 10-15 connection requests every day from people who want to sell their services to his company.

And every single one of them does the same thing...

They send him a connection request with a generic message that says something like:
"Hi [name], I'd love to connect with you and learn more about your company.
Best,
[their name]"

And then, after he accepts their connection request, they immediately follow up with a message that says:

"Hi [name], I noticed you work at [company]. I'm really interested in your company and I'd love to learn more about it. Do you have 15 minutes to hop on a call sometime this week?
Best,
[their name]"

He said it's so frustrating because these people clearly have no interest in getting to know him or building a relationship with him.

They just want to sell their stuff to him.

And it's not just him.

I've heard this same story from dozens of other founders.

Stop this for 3 reasons:

1 → It hurts your personal brand
2 → It confuses your audience with frequency
3 → It’s done by everyone, so you look like everyone

It's safe to switch your strategy to:

→ Track buyer intents
→ Send high-quality, personal message based on intent
→ And engage with your audience to build relationships

P.S. To founders and creators - Posthero.ai helps you write LinkedIn content that stops the scroll and starts conversations with your ideal clients.

148k views last week for my client.

But here's what actually matters: 935 leads.

Not vanity metrics. Not engagement bait. Real people who raised their hand.

How?
Lead magnet posts.

Now before you roll your eyes – I know what you're thinking.
"Most of those leads are garbage."

You're right.
But here's the math that matters:

Even if only 10% are qualified (and it's usually closer to 20%), that's ~90 qualified leads.

In one week.
From organic content.

That's how LinkedIn works when you actually know what you're doing.

Here's what nobody tells you about lead magnet posts:

Most people create lead magnets backwards.
They make something and then try to find people who want it.

That's why conversion rates suck.

Before you create anything, run your idea through this checklist:

1. Does it solve ONE specific problem my audience is actively struggling with right now?
(Not 10 problems. One.)

2. Can someone implement it and see a result in under 15 minutes?
(If it takes longer, it'll sit in their downloads folder forever.)

3. Does it naturally lead to my paid offer without being salesy?
(Your lead magnet should make the next step obvious.)

4. Would I actually use this myself if I found it?
(If you wouldn't, why would they?)

5. Does it give them a quick win that makes them think "if the free stuff is this good, the paid stuff must be incredible"?
(This is what turns cold leads into buyers.)

6. Is the format easy to consume?
(A 47-page PDF isn't a gift, it's homework.)

7. Does my CTA encourage real engagement – likes, comments, shares – not just "comment interested"?
(LinkedIn rewards genuine engagement. Game the algorithm and you'll get throttled.)

If you can't answer yes to at least 5 of these, your lead magnet isn't ready.

And here's the thing most people miss:

The post itself matters more than the magnet.

Your post needs to describe the problem so well that people think:
"Holy shit, this person gets exactly what I'm dealing with."

Then the lead magnet becomes the obvious next step.

We're not doing anything revolutionary here.
Just paying attention to what actually converts instead of what looks good in a screenshot.
__

P.S. I made this lead-magnet post with Posthero.ai. Instead of paying $1K–$3K for a ghostwriter, you can try the app for free.

The most honest LinkedIn posts happen after:

• Launching to crickets
• Pivoting your entire product
• Losing your biggest customer
• Admitting your metrics were vanity

Everyone's drafting the post at midnight wondering how to frame the lesson.

Here's the move: skip the spin.

"Exciting new chapter ahead!" resonates with no one.
"We failed hard, here's the breakdown" builds your audience.

I've been on both sides of this.

The polished version where you make failure sound like strategy.
And the raw version where you just tell people what actually happened.

Guess which one got more responses?
Guess which one led to real conversations?
Guess which one people remembered months later?

The uncomfortable truth is that vulnerability on LinkedIn feels risky because it is risky.

You're exposing the gap between what you projected and what reality delivered.

But that gap is where the interesting stuff lives.

That's where people learn.
That's where trust gets built.
That's where your actual audience shows up.

The "exciting new chapter" crowd will scroll past.
The people who've been there will reach out.

And those are the connections worth having.

So next time you're staring at that draft at midnight, trying to polish the turd:

Don't.

Just tell people what happened.
What you learned.
What you're doing differently.

No jargon. No spin. No bullshit.

The breakdown is the breakthrough.

Every Monday at 10 am, I do something most AI users skip.

And it's the reason my lead quality went from "meh" to "holy shit" in 6 months.

I call it an AI Content Audit.

Most people obsess over how much content their AI pumps out.
I obsess over which content actually converts.

Here's the thing – AI makes it stupidly easy to create content.
But easy creation doesn't equal revenue.
I learned this the hard way after 3 months of high engagement and zero qualified leads.

My content was getting likes. Comments. Shares.
But my calendar? Empty.

So I built a simple framework to separate vanity metrics from actual business results.

Every Monday morning, I review last week's content through 5 brutal questions:

1. Did this piece drive a single qualified lead?
Not just any lead. Someone who actually fits my ideal customer profile.
If the answer is no, I dig into why.

2. What action did people take after reading?
Did they visit my website? Send a DM? Book a call? Download something?
Or did they just hit like and scroll past?

3. What specific words or phrases triggered engagement versus conversion?
I track this obsessively. There's a massive difference between content that gets comments and content that gets clients.

4. Was the hook strong enough to stop my actual target audience?
Or did it just attract random people who'll never buy?

5. Could a human have written this better?
If yes, I update my prompts. If no, I document what worked.

The results after 6 months of this practice:

• Lead quality up 10x (measured by close rate)
• Time spent on unqualified calls down 70%
• Revenue per piece of content up 340%

Here's what I've learned about optimizing AI prompts based on real conversion data:

Generic prompts create generic content that attracts generic people.
The more specific your prompt about your ideal customer's pain points, the better your leads.

I now include in every prompt:
- The exact problem my ideal customer is facing today
- The specific outcome they're trying to achieve
- The objections they have about solutions like mine

Most people treat AI like a content factory.
I treat it like a lead generation machine.

The difference? I actually look at what converts.

Your AI can write 50 posts a day.
But if none of them bring you revenue, what's the point?

Stop measuring output.
Start measuring outcomes.

P.S. I wanted to break the tradition and NOT post a sunset today… but then I saw yesterday’s and couldn’t resist.

The number one reason why people fail on LinkedIn…?

It's not a secret.

When creators focus on going viral instead of building relationships, the message is clear:

Genuine connection doesn't matter.

Vanity metrics, chasing trends, and copying others do.

When they mess this up:

- Their content feels hollow
- Engagement drops despite follower count
- Growth plateaus completely

But get it right, and watch what happens:

- Your audience becomes loyal advocates
- People actually respond to your posts and DMs
- Opportunities start flowing naturally

Advice to founders on LinkedIn:

Stop chasing algorithms and start serving the people who already follow you.

That's it.

That's the advice.

To all founders and creators — at PostHero, we can help you write content that attracts clients on LinkedIn.

But you’ll still need to deliver something worth talking about.

Building in public to $100K MRR (week 1).

This week I did something that felt completely backwards.

Instead of doubling down on marketing, I went heads-down on product.

Here's what happened:

Last week, we added Twitter, Threads, and Bluesky to Posthero.
This week? I built the sync feature – one LinkedIn post now goes to 4 platforms in a few clicks.

And honestly? I feel guilty about it.

Every founder voice in my head is screaming: "You should be marketing! You should be selling! Growth doesn't happen in the code editor!"

But here's the thing – we're at a critical stage.

If I rush to market with a half-baked multi-platform tool, we're just another mediocre scheduling app.
If I take the time to make it genuinely useful, we become the tool people actually want to use.

So I'm making a bet:
That building something truly good matters more than building something quickly.

The reality is uncomfortable though.
No new customers this week.
No viral posts.
Just me, the product, and the nagging feeling that I should be doing something else.

But I've learned this about building a profitable company:
Sometimes the right move doesn't feel like the exciting move.

Next week, I'll share how the sync feature performs and whether this bet pays off.

For now, I'm trusting the process.

P.S. If you're looking for a tool to help you grow on social media, feel free to give Posthero.ai a try - would love to hear what you think!

I've been posting on LinkedIn consistently for 18 months.

In the last year, LinkedIn has literally paid my bills.

Last month alone, I generated 2,257 leads for one client through content.

The platform works. But most people are doing it wrong.

Here's what's actually working right now before the algorithm shifts again:

1. Proof without process is dead.

Dropping numbers means nothing anymore. You need to show the result AND explain how you got there. The combination drives reach and real inbound interest.

2. Story-driven posts still crush everything.

Everyone's posting frameworks and bullet lists. Almost nobody is sharing compact, relatable human moments. A quick win, a mistake you made, a turning point - these generate real engagement because they feel real.

3. Conversation starters build early momentum fast.

Bold questions or clear stances that invite response gather early comments. Those early comments lift distribution. Simple but powerful.

4. Keep links out of your main post.

Text posts, carousels and native videos outperform link posts by a massive margin. If you must share a link, build value in the post first or drop the link in the comments instead. (you can still add links to the post body if do it smart - i.e. update the post in a few hours)

5. Dwell time matters more than you think.

If someone reads your entire post, swipes through your carousel, or watches most of your video, the algorithm pushes your content further. Make people stop scrolling.

6. Topic authority compounds over time.

Posting consistently around the same subject helps LinkedIn classify you as a reliable voice. If you talk about growth, content, or marketing, consistency compounds your distribution.

7. Cross-niche engagement expands your reach.

Engaging consistently in 2 to 3 adjacent fields expands your reach into those networks. It gives your posts more first-hour engagement from audiences outside your core following.

8. Repost your winners.

Most people never saw your post the first time. Repost your top performers after 2 to 4 weeks with a new hook. Your best content deserves more circulation.

9. Deep comment threads get pushed harder.

Posts that create replies to replies are being rewarded. Deeper comment threads are now a clear visibility signal. Ask follow-up questions. Pull people into the conversation.

My posting routine:

I post 5 times per week, every week.

Each post follows a simple pattern: strong hook, tight paragraphs, clear takeaway, question at the end.

I never skip a week. Consistency affects reach more than most people realize.

Formats crushing it right now:

Text posts with a sharp hook, 1 to 2 line paragraphs, 3 to 5 takeaways, and a question at the end.

Proof breakdowns where you share a result, then break down exactly how it happened in 3 to 4 clear steps.

That's it.

3,909 posts created in PostHero.

We're 91 posts away from 4,000.

(and honestly I'm proud of this number)

Here's why this matters to me:

Every single post represents someone who trusted our tool.
Someone who said "yes I'll give this a shot".
Someone who chose us to help them create content.

That's 3,909 times someone believed in what we built.

Not just a number.
Not just a metric.
Not just a vanity stat for our dashboard.

It's 3,909 moments of trust.

And trust? That's the currency that matters most.

When you're building a product it's easy to get caught up in the big milestones. The flashy numbers. The "we hit 10k users" posts.

But sometimes the real wins are quieter.

Like knowing that right now someone is using your tool to write their next post. To share their story. To grow their business.

That's what keeps me going.

So to everyone who's created a post in PostHero.ai → thank you.

You're not just a number to us.
You're the reason we keep building.

Let's hit 4,000 together.

What's a "quiet win" you're proud of lately?

Powered by yet another cup of coffee… Shipped a feature I’ve been thinking about for weeks.

It's called Reflections.

And honestly? It feels small. But I think it might be the most important thing we've built into Posthero recently.

Here's the problem I kept seeing:
Founders are drowning in work. They know they should create content. They have stories to tell. But when it's time to actually write something? Their mind goes blank.

Not because they have nothing to say.
But because they're so deep in the weeds, they can't see what's worth sharing.

So we built Reflections to solve this.

It's a weekly reminder that asks smart, personalized questions about your week.
Simple prompts that help you capture ideas while they're fresh.
Before you forget them. Before they become "just another week."

The goal isn't to add more work to your plate.
It's to make content creation feel natural. Authentic. Easy.

Because the best content doesn't come from trying to sound impressive.
It comes from reflecting on what you're actually building.

I'm excited to see how founders use this.
If you're a founder who struggles to find time for content – this one's for you.

If you’re curious, it’s live now inside Posthero.ai.

I saw someone writing a LinkedIn post today without ChatGPT, Claude, or PostHero.

Just them. Opened LinkedIn editor. For 30 minutes.
Still thinking on the hook.

Like a psychopath.

(this is really so inefficient)

Here's what I think about AI and writing in 2025:

The main human skill isn't writing anymore.
It's thinking.

Your job is to:
• Capture ideas worth sharing
• Find interesting angles nobody sees
• Set the story line that connects
• Use AI to speed up the writing process

But most people do the opposite.

They ask AI: "Write me a LinkedIn post about productivity"
Then they copy-paste whatever comes out.
Zero thinking. Zero personality. Zero you.

The right way?

You think → AI writes → You edit

Not the other way around.

I use AI to create my content.
But the idea? That's 100% mine.
The angle? That's 100% mine.
The message? That's 100% mine.

AI just helps me get it out faster.

Think of AI as your writing assistant.
Not your brain replacement.

Your thoughts are the product.
AI is just the production line.

So yes... use AI to write faster.
But never let AI do your thinking.

That's the one skill that will always be yours.

Curious... do you use AI for writing?

You made it to a 7-figure software business

But it feels stuck and frustrated.

Cuz landing that next dream logo looks like M:i-5.

You serve a demanding audience in the US
100% sourced overseas.

✓ You've validated the model
✓ You replicated success
✓ You scaled the team

→ But not at the pace you planned.

You aim for predictable growth

But deep inside
You know this sounds more like utopia.

Cuz you’re rowing in a sea of sameness
Where most repeat themselves.

Word of mouth. Referrers. Same old lead gen.
None of these are cutting it.

But LinkedIn.. Hmm

You know there's potential there
Somewhere beneath the surface. Close
To unfold the lead-gen powerhouse that lies within.

Yet it seems like a puzzle with missing pieces.

– You post whatever pleases you
– You ask your peers for engagement
– You summon the LinkedIn lords for a sign

And you double down on

– Media outlets
– Guest posts
– Blog posts
– Keywords

But the SQLs?

You spin your wheels chasing poor leads.

– To soothe anxiety
– And show progress

Meanwhile, the algo gurus claim:
" Even in 2025, LI's organic reach is IN-SANE!

Now, listen up.

→ Without the right mindset

And let's turn your LI brand
 ↳ into a Red X
 ↳ in an ocean
 ↳ of White circles.

A few weeks ago I met a U.S. founder with strong roots in Argentina.

Small product dev agency. Around 90 people. Twenty years in.

He did well for a long time working with backed startups in Silicon Valley and Austin.

But the last couple of years have been rough.
Referrals slowed. Cold outreach isn't converting.

Not because the channels are dead. The playbook just hasn’t changed.

His network in Córdoba told him to hire another SDR, revamp his site, buy ads, and fly out to meet prospects.

I know that path.

You burn money and time for tiny wins.

You walk out with a nice chat and nothing to show for it.
Then you chase poor leads for months hoping someone bites.

I’ve done it. Flights. Cold emails. Coffee chats that go nowhere. You end up trying to show ‘progress’ on leads that were never real.

Here’s the point:

- He already shows up on social.
- He's been posting 1-2x a week for over 6 months.
- He talks about real pains in tech talent outsourcing for Series A-C SaaS.

The gap isn’t effort.  It’s stories he’s been sitting on for years.

Twenty years gives you wins, misses, lessons, and scars. Tell the messy parts too.

Because I’ve watched larger agencies try to enter the U.S. the old way:

Fly in with a pitch. No credibility. Zero trust.
Another coffee chat from a mass email or LinkedIn blast.

It’s slow and expensive.

Look at the guys at lemlist, Adam Robinson, Michel Lieben 🧠 (ColdIQ), and plenty of others in B2B.

They didn’t force their way in. They shared what they learned, raw, in public.

And their teams share too. Organic reach compounds. One seller can’t beat that.

What works now:

- Pick micro-niches
- Connect without pressure
- Share useful lessons and breakdowns
- Say things the way you’d say them (not how they 'should' sound)

When you show up like that, buyers notice.

Stay consistent for a few weeks and you start getting profile views from people who matter.

So instead of chasing meetings across the country,

Use LinkedIn the way you’d network in real life.

(Except you get more time and more attention)

You don’t need more caffeine. You need visibility, genuine curiosity, and real conversations.

And you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Work with people who’ve done this for real, not theory.

In 2025, one clear post and a few meaningful conversations online can beat a week of airport-to-airport coffees.

Seven years since we last talked. But the weight he carried was different this time.

He looked beat. Shoulders low, eyes tired. He went straight in:

His oldest client in the U.S. Nine years. Top-five account. Canceling in 60 days.

Seventeen percent of revenue gone by January.

And his pipeline rested on four shaky legs: referrals, big conferences, a lead-gen agency flying blind, and waiting for ads to magically send him a warm lead.

Not exactly a plan.

Meanwhile his marketing team was still posting AI boilerplate no buyer of his services would care about after the first scroll.

Then he said it. Flat. Resigned:

“Our content is bad. Shallow. Irrelevant to our market. Ten years in and buyers still don’t know who we are. And we sound like everyone else posting the same AI hype.”

He wasn’t pointing fingers. He’d already taken the hit.

“Stop making content,” I told him.

He frowned. “What are you talking about?”

“It's not an idea problem,” I said.

"You’re just buried. Moving too fast to see the good ones. And you don’t need fresher ideas. You need cleaner visibility...

AI gives you a starting point. Your day gives you the substance...

Start by journaling your day. Not for branding. For clarity.”

Capture what’s already happening:

- the client call that wrecked your morning
- the tiny a-ha from a late-night broken test
- the teammate who spotted what you missed
- the hallway comment that flipped your thinking

That’s the stuff buyers trust because it's real.

The kind of stuff AI can’t fake because it doesn’t live your day.

LinkedIn spots operators fast. Stakes. Tension. Numbers. Details.

Boilerplate gets shelved as soon as it hits the feed.

Be a field reporter inside your own shop. Your own trail forensics.

Notes. Voice memos. Screenshots.

Capture the moments while they’re warm.

Then boil it down:

One story. One point. One takeaway for your ICP.

(And the algorithm knows exactly who to show it to.)

Your lens.
Your f*ckups.
Your fingerprints.

People who do this don’t need to “post more” to get the right visibility.

They just share the bumpy journey. How they're figuring things out. And they tie it back to what their buyers actually live with.

Nothing fancy. Just real.

And real, my friends...
Real pulls buyers in.
