I help early-stage SaaS startups design their product in just 4 weeks ✧ Founder of Prakti Studio

Hey, Bogdan here. I can help you in two ways:

The first one costs money: I run Prakti Studio, a premium design agency for B2B marketing teams. We help bring marketing websites to life through 2 core services:

- A focused 2-week strategy sprint that clarifies the structure, UX flow and sets the visual direction
- High-conversion design and fast no-code implementation

The second way is free: I share tried-and-tested marketing strategies right here on LinkedIn, showing you how we’ve turned ideas into results. Follow along for actionable insights you can start using today.

My role is to bring clarity & creativity to the most innovative CMOs out there.

I’ve recently migrated 2 websites from Squarespace and Webflow to Framer

What’s interesting is that I didn’t have to convince either team

Both came in with different business goals, but the same expectation:

“We want something different and heard Framer is very design-oriented”

That line comes up a lot

But “different” usually means something very specific 😅

After working through both migrations

Here’s what they were actually looking for, and why they chose Framer:

→ Advanced design layouts (animations, scroll triggers, bolder visuals)
→ Modular components that make future changes easier, not riskier
→ Autonomy for marketing to update pages without breaking things
→ Native integrations and marketing automations
→ Template pages that can scale without redesigning every time
→ A simpler CMS that doesn’t slow iteration

They didn’t migrate because the actual platforms were bad

They migrated because the website had become friction…

and friction was slowing marketing, momentum, and experimentation

Framer removed that friction

So if you’re thinking about migrating to Framer, let me know and I’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a good fit for your team

Web experience agency for fast-growing companies ✧ Founder @Prakti Studio

Saw this smart way to build trust at the decision point, especially in an era where buyers literally ask ChatGPT what to choose

We’re implementing this right away for our clients. You should too!

Prompt in the comments

I hear this all the time on discovery calls:

“We don’t really know what our website should include”

In B2B, it usually comes down to one thing: the stage of your company's maturity

Not every website needs 10+ pages

And not every company should be thinking about content engines or ABM just yet

i've worked with companies at every stage, and the pattern is pretty clear

Different stage → different website needs:

1️⃣ Stage 1 → Getting started
Goal: Validate the idea and capture early leads
A single landing page can do the job if it's clear:
→ What you do
→ Who it's for
→ Why it matters
→ A form to capture leads
→ One obvious CTA (waitlist, demo, signup)

2️⃣ Stage 2 → Building momentum
Goal: Create clarity and trust
You move to a small, structured site:
→ Features or solutions
→ Pricing
→ About
→ Possibly a blog or demo page
Structure and clarity matter more than visual polish at this point

3️⃣ Stage 3 → Scaling growth
Goal: Turn attention into pipeline
The site starts working harder:
→ SEO-driven content
→ Use case pages
→ Resource hubs (guides, tools)
→ Campaign and ABM-style pages
→ Repeatable landing page system for marketing

4️⃣ Stage 4 → Enterprise
Goal: Run a full digital ecosystem
The website becomes a platform:
→ Multiple regions and languages
→ Industry, persona, and solution-based pages
→ Support and documentation
→ Careers
→ Press and media resources

Overbuilding too early usually creates more friction than value

I see this happen often... companies at stage 2 trying to build a stage 4 site

So...next time you’re deciding what to include on your website, anchor it to the needs of your current stage

Is Framer worth using for big websites?
Short answer: YES, when used for the right reasons

I've worked with both small startups and larger companies, and this question keeps coming up

Especially from teams considering a migration

The common take on social media is:

"Framer is great, but only for small websites"

That's not accurate...

Framer is already used by big companies like Miro, Perplexity, Mixpanel, FloraAI, etc...

And guess what, they didn't choose Framer because their websites are simple

They chose it because it removes friction where they need speed and control

What actually matters for larger teams:

→ Big companies still need to move fast
Landing pages, campaigns, experiments... speed matters at every stage

→ Marketing teams need ownership, not dependency
Create and update pages without waiting on developers for every small change

→ Design quality scales well with the right system
With proper components, high-polish experiences stay cohesive as you grow

→ Flexibility without fragility
When your brand evolves, you can adapt without a complete rebuild

→ Non-technical teams can iterate with confidence
Less fear of breaking things, more room to test and improve

→ Focus stays on what matters
Teams spend time on messaging and conversion, not technical implementation

Company size doesn't determine if Framer is right for you

The real question is: how fast does your team need to move?

Considering a move to Framer? Let me know and i'll tell you honestly if it makes sense for your team

I run a marketing business called Demand Hive and work as a marketing consultant.

At Demand Hive, we unf*ck your messaging in 3 weeks by helping you clearly explain what you do and rewriting your homepage so you can win more projects.

Through Hey Sergiu, I work directly with founders on consulting, advisory, and custom marketing projects. This includes quick input on specific problems, ongoing support, or hands-on help on clearly defined initiatives.

I’ve done this for 100+ founders across design agencies, IT companies, software houses, consultancies, solopreneurs, and more.

Founder & LinkedIn Personal Brand Manager

We help solopreneurs, founders, coaches, CEOs & executives build their personal brand on LinkedIn in order to increase visibility, generate inbound leads and improve credibility.

I need less than 10 minutes to place an order for a $1,000 smartphone, $3,000 laptop, or $40,000 car, but I need 3 sales calls and wait for 2 weeks to get an offer for a B2B service.

Does no one see a problem here?

Marketing and sales will always be hard if you overload the buying process.

There are 2 simple rules a lot of founders miss:

1) Make it clear.
2) Make it easy to buy.

Then it's just a matter of distribution, which isn't hard to do.

P.S.: Most of the marketing and sales problems are often because of your messaging. Fix it.

See you at 30. 🤘

The moment your car starts making a weird noise, you turn the music down and pay attention.

Before that, you’re just chilling and enjoying the road.

I see this happen every day with B2B services.

Everyone promises big outcomes and prospects reply with, “Cool, but I’m fine for now.”

They’re fine because they don’t hear, feel, or see any noise.

And that’s usually because you don’t talk about it.

You've been told to focus on outcomes, promise the sun and the moon.

But people don’t buy those in plain sight. At least not if they’re not trying to get rich overnight.

They pay for specific solutions that make their pain go away and then generate an outcome.

That's why a lot of businesses fail because of messaging.

They never make the prospect turn the music down and pay attention.

And if you don’t do that, it doesn’t matter how good your service is.

They’ll keep enjoying the road and pick someone else the moment they hear a weird noise.

A founder told me they know their positioning very well. When I asked what it is, they said they need to search for it in Google Drive.

Perfect.

Because when a prospect is looking for a solution, they obviously ask for a Google Drive link.

Then they spend 15 minutes scrolling through a 30-page PDF, hoping to find a sentence that explains what the business actually does.

That’s how buying works, right?

The same way you don’t take a headache pill if you don’t have a headache, people don’t pay for services if it’s not clear what problem they solve.

Literally, one of the easiest ways to make your marketing more effective and your pipeline more predictable is to clearly tie your solution to a specific problem (or set of problems).

Not outcomes or big promises. Problems.

And once you have that, say it clearly on your homepage, content, emails, everywhere.

This is just a small part of what we cover in the Messaging Sprint at Demand Hive.

If you’re ready to fix unclear messaging, here’s more: https://lnkd.in/dJpdfTCq

I always tell founders that the biggest cost of bad messaging isn't revenue. It's their time. Money comes and goes, but losing 6 months of opportunities and momentum hits 10x harder.

If you’re not willing to invest €2,000 in a messaging project, at least copy-paste the structure in the image below and try working through it yourself.

Or if you just need some help or a second brain, I also do 1-hour consulting calls. Just DM me.

I’ve had clients add €50,000+ worth of leads to their pipeline or charge up to 4x more just by fixing their messaging.

You don't have to hire me, but you really can't afford to sleep on this.

I’ve been doing marketing and selling B2B services since 2010. I can say this confidently:

Things changed a lot in 2025, and 2026 will push this even further.

Marketing is saturated in every possible way.

1. Everyone can use AI, spend a few hundred dollars, and reach thousands of people.

2. More business owners are using AI to do certain marketing activities by themselves.

3. There are hundreds of service providers that promise the sun and the moon for a pizza.

The ones who will feel this the most are business owners.

1. With everyone doing things, the competition is getting bigger and bigger.

2. Using AI for marketing activities might feel like progress, but it's often a trap.

3. It becomes difficult to find skilled people who can provide hands-on support.

My take?

The businesses that will make it in 2026 and beyond will stop treating marketing as a set of isolated activities.

Things like posting, ads, emails, funnels, etc.

Instead, they will think in terms of a full selling process.

You should worry less about "what should we post today?" and focus more on "what should we do to sell our service better, easier, and faster?"

This means you need to master and focus on both marketing and sales at the same time.

P.S. Just my 2 cents. Curious how you see it.

"Our pipeline and revenue are unpredictable."

This is what several founders told me this week.

I'll tell you exactly what I've told them:

Predictable revenue requires repeatable understanding.

People need to:

- Recognize themselves in the problem you describe
- Understand quickly if you are relevant to them
- Know when they should book a call with you
- Know why you instead of the alternatives

If they don't, only a small percentage of them will push through.

Those are usually referrals or people already half-convinced.

The others will just leave without saying a thing.

I think you don't realize how much you're losing if your messaging is not clear.

If your content doesn’t bring clients or your outreach gets no replies, it's usually because of this:

You're either not talking about a problem at all or you're talking about the wrong one.

I've said it 1,000 times before: people don't buy because of "isolated outcomes."

They buy because something hurts right now.

That's why "increase revenue" alone doesn't work, but "we keep getting leads that don't convert" does.

You need to identify the problem and its symptoms, then use them as input for your marketing.

I know this isn't easy, so I turned this way of thinking into something practical: Push Until It Hurts GPTs.

3 custom GPT prompts that help you:

- Uncover the real problem you solve
- Identify the daily symptoms people actually feel
- Turn those symptoms into content and outreach

How can you tell if your messaging is unclear?

Easy. Look at these three signals:

1. Your sales pipeline and revenue aren’t predictable month to month.
2. Prospects are sometimes confused about how you can help them.
3. Marketing efforts don’t pay off, so you rely mostly on referrals.

Now, here’s how to read them:

If 1 out of 3 is true, it might be a messaging issue. Dig deeper.

If 2 out of 3 are true, there’s a high chance messaging is the problem and it needs attention.

If 3 out of 3 are true, it’s definitely a messaging problem and it should be fixed sooner rather than later.

That’s it. ✌️

I’ve seen quite often lately how founders struggle to book sales calls because they don’t match their messaging with the way prospects think and act.

Because of this, they just make the entire sales process heavier and often prospects give up.

I’ve recorded a quick 1-minute video to explain how this works and how to solve it:
