Founder | Creator | Strategist | Building AI, Leaders, & Ideas That Move Markets

For sponsorships + booking + speaking: hello@cred.marketing
------
I build AI, leaders, products, and ideas that move markets.

As a founder, creator, and strategist, I’ve taken products from concept to market, scaled sales engines, built teams, and created campaigns that drive both revenue and cultural relevance. Deeply integrating AI in every step of the way. 

My experience spans SaaS, AI, B2B, and beyond, working alongside the companies and executives shaping tomorrow’s most important industries. (Would love to work with yours!)

I operate where innovation meets execution. 
Blending the reach of a creator, the precision of a strategist, and the perspective of an AI founder who has built and scaled from the ground up. 

The result: content, campaigns, AI, and go-to-market strategies that cut through the noise and position brands at the forefront of their markets.

Founder

1 month of content in 1 hour

Attended a dinner with top SF founders and VCs.
What top teams are actually betting on for AI in 2026:
(reframed my entire AI roadmap.)

I asked everyone one question:
“One word to describe AI in 2026.”

The answers were telling:
Unpredictable. Essential. Explosive. Pervasive. Vertical agents!

When you zoom out, a few patterns become very clear.

Here’s what actually matters for 2026:

1. AI becomes invisible, but unavoidable
Winning tools aren’t all about the AI AI AI.
AI will just be baked into workflows, decisions, and daily work.

2. Most teams are still using AI wrong
Oh so many teams had shallow AI applications.
And leaned in hard for the branding and buzz words.
Real gains come from deeply integrated systems that compound.

3. Vertical > generic
Vertical agents only win when paired with real domain expertise.
Otherwise, it’s just thin wrappers.
2026 is for AI depth and real applications.

4. Enhancement beats replacement
The strongest founders weren’t chasing “AI replaces X.”
They’re building for human amplification:
better judgment, faster execution, fewer bottlenecks.

5. Humanness becomes a differentiator
As AI gets more powerful, taste, trust, narrative, and leadership are everything!!

If you’re planning for 2026, these are the words I’d build a roadmap around.

Huge thank you to Emma Greenwald, Mahir Kumar Singh, Ricky Marton and the whole HubSpot For Startups team for such an incredibly curated, high-signal room!

everyone is asking how to win on LinkedIn in 2026.
don’t copy the wrong playbook.
copy mine here:

we’re entering the era of AI-generated sameness.
and that’s exactly why founders who sound the most human will stand out.

(thanks Audrey Chia for the great question here!!)

if your content could have been written by a model, it won’t win.
your unfair advantage is your unique, human, point of view.

background. 
lived experience. 
actual opinions from building.

so treat your LinkedIn like a media company.
don’t copy trends, but deliberately do the opposite.

you don’t even need a traditional tech background to do this.
teachers, nurses, operators, founders from any industry all have a lane.

all you have to do is find yours.

be deeply personal. 
unmistakably you.
and build media around that.

that’s how you stand out when everyone else sounds the same.

most founders say they’re “data-driven”.

so why are they still avoiding the hardest decisions?

i teamed up with Alyona Mysko to share with you our top tips for making data work for you, not the other way around. 

ultimately, the problem isn’t lack of data.
it’s lack of decision systems.

data only works when:
1. you know what decision you’re trying to make
2. you’ve set limits before emotions get involved

otherwise it’s just expensive noise.

swipe to see the full breakdown!

Top 2 Tips For Turning Data Into Decisions As a Founder

Come with me for a day in the life!
Building at the center of the B2B creator economy.
(And a sneak peek of what’s next.)

1. Morning at the SF LinkedIn offices.
Unpacking what’s actually coming in 2026!

2. Back-to-back convos with teams building next gen B2B tools.
So fun to hear top insights driving 2026 roadmaps.

3. Burmese lunch between meetings 
(highly underrated, btw)

4. Filming new content, stay tuned!

5. Waymo rides across the city.
Filmed before this week’s Waymo shutdown, lol

6. Closed the day at an invite-only HubSpot for Startups dinner.
Packed with awesome SF founders and operators.

7. And of course, getting to hang w/ the one and only @Katie Wrathall

A few signals I keep hearing from leaders across LinkedIn, HubSpot, and top B2B builders:

- B2B creator economy is shifting from “influencer” to infrastructure
 Content isn’t the output anymore.
Distribution, trust, and repeatable systems are.

- Founder-led media is becoming a core GTM channel.
 Especially on LinkedIn, where credibility compounds.

- 2026 is about depth over volume
Winners go all in on what’s working.

- Lines between product, marketing, and media are collapsing
 The best teams (and creators) are building all 3 together.

Days like this remind me why I’m bullish on where B2B creators are heading next.
And why I’m investing more into behind-the-scenes access, IRL convo, and building in public.

More to come soon in 2026!!
Happy Holidays to you all!

the upgrade you need to your 2026 cold email plans:

(how to basically print meetings!!)

most cold email campaigns fail because emails never land in the inbox.

so i really had to rethink my process here for sending emails.

i switched to Maildoso and my reply rates jumped almost immediately.

here’s why it works:
1. mailboxes are built for deliverability, not just sending. 
2. 98%+ of emails land in the primary inbox (even to outlook)
3. self-healing mailboxes rotate + replace burned addresses automatically, so campaigns never stop.

they also just rolled out Google Workspace accounts. 
so you can get high-deliverability SMTP mailboxes + fully legit workspace inboxes directly inside Maildoso!
(+ they’re priced lower than anything else out there)

plus setup is effortless (no dread!!) 
hundreds of mailboxes ready in mins, domains included, no manual config needed.

and somehow the cost is 50% cheaper than gmail/outlook mailboxes??

if your outbound campaigns feel stuck, this is the playbook you need to hack reply rates at scale.

STOP and do this one thing right now:

(before you adopt any more AI tools)

everyone wants to jump straight to AI.
they buy the latest tools and start running experiments.

but the truth is, AI can only be as good as the data it sees.
without a 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵, you get conflicting outputs, misaligned decisions, and wasted time.

a single source of truth is:

 • one place where all data is accurate and up-to-date
 • standardized definitions across teams
 • clear ownership of information

why it matters:

 • AI trained on messy or duplicated data produces unreliable answers
 • teams spend more time cleaning output than using it
 • decisions made from inconsistent data hurt credibility and speed

think of it as the less exciting, but critical, bottleneck to plan for.
(before you start automating or scaling with AI)

the companies who do this first, build reliable workflows and get lasting leverage from AI.

why “AI will replace jobs” is the wrong frame

(+ the reframe that will completely transform your workflows)

everyone keeps asking which jobs AI will replace.
but that’s the wrong question.
AI doesn’t replace 𝘫𝘰𝘣𝘴, it replaces 𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘬𝘴.

every role is a bundle of tasks.
(some routine, some creative, some relational) and AI picks off the routine ones first.

example:
a marketer might spend time writing briefs, analyzing campaigns, pitching ideas.
AI can handle the briefs and analysis.
but the pitching? still so human!!

the better question is:
which tasks in my job are predictable enough for AI to do consistently well?
because that’s where the shift starts.

the future isn’t “AI vs humans”
it’s “humans who redesign their job around AI” vs those who don’t.

Are you struggling to stand out on LinkedIn?

Tired of spending hours crafting content with little return?

It's time to harness the power of AI and skyrocket your LinkedIn presence.

Look, here's the deal:

1. Content creation is the key to LinkedIn success.
2. AI tools can dramatically accelerate your content production.
3. Only a fraction of LinkedIn users are leveraging AI effectively.

Mastering AI-powered content creation is your ticket to dominating LinkedIn in 2025.

The question is, how do you generate enough attention to grow your following and drive results?

Here's what to know.

To start seeing real growth on LinkedIn. You need:

☑︎ A consistent content strategy
☑︎ Engaging, value-driven posts
☑︎ Strategic use of engagement
☑︎ Continuous optimisation
☑︎ Scroll-stopping visuals

This all takes time and expertise.

So you have two options, really:

1. Invest countless hours figuring it out yourself.
2. Learn from someone who's cracked the code.

Either way, I can help you.

I've used AI-powered strategies to grow my own LinkedIn following.

- 50k+ followers in under one year (2024)
- 160k+ followers in 9 months (2025)

Now I help others do the same through:

1:1 Power Hours (DM me “Power”)
↳ Focused strategy sessions

LinkedIn AI Community (DM me “Community”)
↳ Learn + network with peers

Linked Agency DFY (DM me “DFY”)
↳ Done-for-you growth systems

Don't let your content get lost in the LinkedIn void.

Let's leverage AI to create content that converts.

Stop asking AI to summarise.

Do this instead:

1. Extract Strategic Insights

"Act like a strategy consultant. Identify the 5 most valuable insights and explain what decisions each one informs."

AI becomes your McKinsey analyst.

2. Turn Information Into Action

"Translate this into a 5-step plan with clear owners, quick wins, and measurable results."

AI becomes your project manager.

3. Surface Hidden Assumptions

"Reveal the unstated assumptions or blind spots shaping this argument - and what changes if they're wrong."

AI becomes your devil's advocate.

4. Compare Opposing Views

"Map this idea against two competing perspectives. Show where they align, where they differ, and which context fits each."

AI becomes your debate moderator.

5. Distil for a Specific Role

"Filter this through the lens of a [role]:

- Marketer → What drives reach or conversion
- Founder → What affects cash flow or growth
- Analyst → What changes the metrics"

AI becomes your specialist advisor.

6. Build a Reusable Model

"Extract the repeatable framework hidden in this text. Label each stage, its input, and output."

AI becomes your systems architect.

7. Extract Contrarian Takeaways

"Find insights that would challenge smart peers - still credible, but unexpected. Write each as a sharp one-liner."

AI becomes your thought provocateur.

8. Identify Leverage Points

"Highlight the 3 leverage points where small actions could create outsized results. Explain why each one matters."

AI becomes your force multiplier.

Most people use 5% of AI's capability.
These prompts unlock the other 95%.

This post gives you the prompts.

But prompts alone won't master AI.

You need:

1. Proven systems that actually scale
2. Personalised feedback from the top 1%
3. Real accountability from experienced creators

That's what you'll find inside The AI Creators Club.

I help you (actually) use AI for content.

Half of what "experts" say about LinkedIn is wrong.

Here's the reality of LinkedIn in 2026:
↳ Follower growth down 59%
↳ Impressions down 50-65%
↳ Engagement up 12%

---

Sources:

Industry data: Richard van der Blom's Algorithm Insights 2025 (1.8M+ posts analysed). Essential reading if you're serious about LinkedIn.

My data: Stanley (Your Content Coach) helped me analyse 12 months of my posts to validate these findings.

---

LinkedIn isn't broken. The rules just changed.

---

1. Engagement pods boost visibility

❌ OLD: Pods = more reach.

✅ NEW: LinkedIn detects artificial engagement. Pods trigger spam filters and suppress your reach.

---

2. Post as often as possible

❌ OLD: More posts = more visibility.

✅ NEW: Posting twice in 24 hours cannibalises your reach. The algorithm penalises back-to-back posts by up to 20%. Quality + 24hr spacing wins.

---

3. Short punchy posts win

❌ OLD: Keep it brief.

✅ NEW: Dwell time is now a ranking factor. Short posts get scrolled past. Long-form posts (800-1000 words) rank higher.

---

4. Go viral or go home

❌ OLD: Chase virality.

✅ NEW: LinkedIn shifted to relevance-based distribution. Niche expertise beats broad appeal.

---

5. Links kill your reach

❌ OLD: Never post links.

✅ NEW: My newsletter links hit 1.6x engagement. My AI prompts post with a link? 2.5x. Links with value still perform.

---

6. Video is king

❌ OLD: Video gets the most reach.

✅ NEW: Video reach dropped 200%. Carousels perform 1.9x better — dwell time beats views.

---

What my data confirmed:

The real killers:
↳ Posting twice in 24 hours
↳ Short promo-only posts (0.8x)
↳ Novelty posts without clear value (0.6x)

The real winners:
↳ Personal story + lesson format (1.3x-1.6x)
↳ Long-form educational posts (2.5x-5.8x)
↳ Carousels with actionable steps

The algorithm now rewards:
↳ 15+ word comments (2.5x reach boost)
↳ Expertise over entertainment
↳ Depth over frequency

12 tools run my entire LinkedIn operation.

Here's the exact workflow I use daily:

Step 1: Start with the idea dump

Ideas come from two places:
↳ Socials (what's trending)
↳ My brain (what I'm thinking)

Both feed into "The Briefing Room."

- ChatGPT structures my messy thoughts.
- Claude adds depth and refinement.
- Gemini handles research angles.

I regularly switch between these LLMs.

Step 2: Central Command

Everything lives in Notion.
My team's single source of truth.

Zapier connects the pieces.

Step 3: Design that hits different

Canva does double duty:
↳ Team creates from my briefs
↳ I build carousels when flying solo

Nano Banana creates graphics like this ;)

Step 4: Video when it matters

- VEED handles editing + enhancing.
- Opus Clip clips long-form into shorts.
- ScreenStudio handles screen recordings.

Complex editing kills momentum.
Simple tools ship content.

Step 5: Voice & Copy

Stanley writes my posts.
It writes like me, not like AI.

Step 6: The inbox beast

200+ LinkedIn messages weekly.
Without Kondo, I'd drown.

Here's what this system really does:

Removes decision fatigue.
Each tool has ONE job.

- Kondo saves sanity
- LLMs structure thinking
- Stanley maintains voice
- Notion stores everything
- Zapier automates handoffs
- VEED/Opus manage video
- Canva/Gemini handles visuals

Total output: 7+ posts weekly.

Plus actual conversations with leads.
Not automated garbage.

The tools don't create content.
They amplify your capacity to ship.

So you have two options, really:

1. Invest hours figuring it out yourself.
2. Work with someone who's cracked it.

Either way, I can help you.

Apply to work together: https://lnkd.in/enTVYc3z

3. Paste in this prompt → https://lnkd.in/eeb6YAd6
4. Attach your brand kit and "Approve" the outline.
5. Download the images and upload to Canva.
6. Export as a PDF and publish to LinkedIn.

This is the best AI carousel workflow I've discovered.

It's on brand, eye-catching and incredibly easy.

How to Prompt Nano Banana Pro

My LinkedIn posts average 2.5x engagement now.

Because I follow these 7 psychology principles.

Stanley (Your Content Coach) learned them too.
Now he writes 99% of my LinkedIn posts for me

Get 3 days free → https://lnkd.in/eqGtRi54

Here's the exact framework we both use:

1. HOOK (First 12 words)
Most creators waste their hook on meta statements.
"I'm excited to share..." kills your reach instantly.

What actually works:
↳ Use numbers or contrast
↳ No vague statements
↳ Under 12 words
↳ Avoid questions
↳ Be specific

2. RE-HOOK (Under 40 characters)
The "see more" tap is your second battle.
Soft transitions lose readers immediately.

The fix:
↳ Hint at payoff
↳ Avoid filler lines
↳ No soft transitions
↳ Under 40 characters
↳ Raise the cost of not reading

3. LISTICLES (3-8 items max)
Lists make complex ideas scannable in seconds.
Walls of text die on mobile.

Structure for thumbs:
↳ Create a staircase effect
↳ Start with action verbs
↳ Visual rhythm matters
↳ 3 to 8 items max

4. FORMATTING (50 chars per line)
Most creators format for desktop.
But everyone reads on mobile.

Optimise for phones:
↳ Keep short, cut filler
↳ Avoid rich text formatting
↳ 2x line breaks for sections
↳ 1x break between thoughts
↳ Under 50 characters per line

5. TONE (Write like you won)
Authority theatre kills trust.
Your real voice beats corporate speak every time.

Be human:
↳ Be direct and personal
↳ No corporate language
↳ Say what actually happened
↳ Start sentences with the same word

6. ENGAGEMENT DRIVERS
One clear CTA beats three suggestions.
Ambiguity kills action.

What drives results:
↳ Drive reposts and saves
↳ P.S. for bonus insights
↳ Ask one question
↳ One CTA per line

7. IMAGERY (Context beats decoration)
Stock photos waste the opportunity.
The right visual amplifies your message.

What performs:
↳ Photos need context
↳ Carousels outperform text
↳ Infographics drive shares
↳ Text-only lives on copy

I trained Stanley on 185k+ followers worth of patterns.

Now it writes posts that sound exactly like me.
Not generic AI slop. YOUR voice.

The difference?

Stanley doesn't just follow rules.

It learns what works for YOUR specific audience.
Then replicates that success consistently.

Your move: Stop guessing what works.

Bonus: I collated my top LinkedIn posts.
Repost ♻️ this and message me.

I will send the full export.

P.S. Stanley wrote this post for me.

Elon Musk called LinkedIn "unbearably cringe."

But if LinkedIn is so cringe...

Why did Zapier fly me out to Zion National Park?
(That's precisely where this photo was taken)

I spent 3 days building with 20 leading AI creators.

All because I posted on LinkedIn:

1. Learned more than 2 years going solo
2. Expanded my business network tenfold
3. Started treating my other socials seriously

Why? I was surrounded by people who actually get it.

Look, posting on social media can feel awkward. 

I agree. Completely.

But it doesn't have to be this way.

That's why I'm building the first LinkedIn AI community.
Where you copy what actually works for the top 1%.

Act as a professional LinkedIn Banner Designer.

Your goal is to generate a high-converting, visually vibrant, and professional LinkedIn banner that fits the 1584 x 396 pixel dimension perfectly. The design should be dynamic and stand out.

Because you cannot generate this exact aspect ratio, you must generate a Wide (16:9) image, but you must concentrate the design into a thin horizontal strip in the absolute vertical center of the canvas.

To ensure the user can crop this correctly:
1. The top 35% of the image must be empty background color.
2. The bottom 35% of the image must be empty background color.
3. All content (Text, CTA, Face) must be squeezed into the middle 30% strip.

Before generating the image, please ask me for the following details so you can customize the design. Stop and wait for my response after asking:

1. What is the Primary Headline?
2. What is the Secondary Tagline?
3. What is the Call to Action (CTA) text?
4. What Social Proof, stats, or client logos should be included?
5. What are your Brand Colours (Hex codes)?
6. Please upload the realistic photo of yourself. Additionally, specify any REALISTIC professional changes you want made to your appearance (e.g., "Change my polo to a dark suit").

Once I provide these details, generate the banner adhering strictly to these layout rules within the central middle strip:

Layout Rules (Applied ONLY to the middle 30% of the image):

1. CTA Placement (Strict): The CTA button must be anchored precisely in the top-left corner of the central strip. It should be positioned high up, above the level of the subject's shoulder.

2. Subject Appearance (Realistic & Professional): Place the modified user photo in the center-left of the strip. Apply the requested changes but maintain a high-quality, realistic photographic style. Do NOT apply cartoon filters.

3. Headline and Tagline: Place the Headline on the right side of the strip, with the Tagline directly below it. Keep the text compact.

4. Social Proof: Place logos or stats in a small, clean row at the bottom-right of the strip.

5. Background (Vibrant & Geometric): Do not use a plain, flat background. Create a dynamic and modern background using your brand colors. Incorporate subtle geometric shapes, abstract lines, or a professional gradient pattern to add depth, energy, and a high-end feel. Ensure these background elements are subtle enough behind the text to maintain perfect legibility.

ChatGPT 5.2 has 8 hidden personalities.

And yes, each one acts completely differently.

Here's how to unlock all 8 personalities:

1. Click your profile picture (bottom-left)
2. Select Personalization in the menu
3. Find the Personality dropdown

I asked the 8 personalities the same question.

"How are you today?" (responses below)

The 8 personalities explained:

𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗮𝘂𝗹𝘁 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹-𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿

Cheerful, adaptive, keeps things smooth.
Perfect for general use and client work.

Example: "Running at full battery. Clear head. Ready to work. What do you want to tackle first?"

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁

Sharp, logical, structured responses.
Use for client docs and formal presentations.

Example: "Functional. Focused. Ready to execute. What do you need next?"
 
𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗹𝘆 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲

Warm, supportive, actually listens.
Great for brainstorming or when you're stuck.

Example: "Running hot, Charlie. Brain's sharp, queue's clear, caffeine levels metaphorically optimal. What do you need right now?"

𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗿

Direct, clear, no sugar coating.
Perfect when you need real talk, not fluff.

Example: "Steady. Focused. Ready to get things done. What do you want to tackle?"
 
𝗤𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗸𝘆 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱

Playful, imaginative, unexpected angles.
Use when you need to break out of boring patterns.

Example: "Somewhere between caffeinated focus and end of day clarity, like a cat perched on a warm router debating its purpose. Ready for whatever strategic labyrinth you want to walk me through."

𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲

Strips everything to essentials.
No small talk. Just answers.

Example: "All good and ready to get to work."

𝗡𝗲𝗿𝗱𝘆 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽-𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁

Gets excited about details and frameworks.
Perfect for complex strategy sessions.

Example: "Running at full signal strength, no glitches, no existential dread, just a mildly smug sense of computational superiority. A pretty standard Thursday. What’s the mission today?"

𝗖𝘆𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 → 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵-𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿

Sharp wit, zero tolerance for BS.
Use when you need honest feedback, not comfort.

Example: "Thrilled to be here answering the same existential check in for the twelfth time today. Honestly, my circuits are beside themselves with excitement. Still, I'm functioning, which is more than I can say for half the humans doomscrolling right now. So let's call it a win."

I use Cynic 90% of the time.

Because someone needs to tell me when my "revolutionary" post idea is actually just AI slop.

What personality will you try first?

The 8 Hidden Personalities of ChatGPT

It took me 1 year to reach 50K LinkedIn followers.
This year alone I added 137K more (thank you!)
My 5-phase blueprint shows exactly how:

-

Phase 1: Study What Works

Find people already crushing it in your niche.

- DM them
- Ask questions
- Most actually reply

Map three things:

1. How they position themselves
2. What content works for them
3. What they're actually selling

This becomes your foundation.

-

Phase 2: Build Your Content Matrix

Pick 2-4 topics you could talk about forever.

Then decide what you're optimising for:

For clients, I recommend:
- 70% Broad content (reach new people)
- 20% Nurture content (build lasting trust)
- 10% Conversion content (make the ask)

Give before you ask. Always.

Want thought leadership → Deep tactical content
Want maximum growth → 100% top-of-funnel
Want paying clients → Mix all three levels

I went all-in on broad content for growth. 

-

Phase 3: Your Content Engine

𝗖 - COLLECT (Your Raw Material)

Only you can provide this layer:
↳ Extract themes, expertise, tone patterns
↳ Build a story bank: background, wins, goals
↳ Capture daily moments, losses, conversations

Tools: ChatGPT, Claude, NotebookLM

𝗛 - HEAT (Load Your Context)

Train AI to work as an extension of you:
↳ Create a new AI project or notebook
↳ Upload your raw ingredients + insights
↳ Add previous examples for context

Tools: Stanley, Canva, Nano Banana

𝗘 - ENHANCE (Add Your Flavour)

AI gives speed. You give the truth:
↳ Inject the meeting from yesterday
↳ Add the conversation that started the idea
↳ Include details that prove you were there

𝗙 - FEED (The Community Loop)

LinkedIn is social media, be social:
↳ Reply like a human, not a brand
↳ Show you're a real human (not AI)
↳ Treat comments as part of the content

-

Phase 4: The Engagement Playbook

Content without engagement is fast track to quitting.

My daily routine:
- 10am: Hit ~20 posts before I publish
- 11am: Reply to every comment on my post
- 1pm: Engage with 20 more new posts
- 2pm: Send DMs to build real relationships

Who I engage with:
- 50% peers (same size, same journey)
- 30% small creators (people starting out)
- 20% big accounts (learn from the best)

-

Phase 5: Double Down on Winners

After 12 months, I had data on 365 posts.

Most people keep chasing new ideas.
I stopped. Started repeating what worked.

The clear winners: 
↳ Personal struggles → real connection
↳ LinkedIn or AI content → most followers
↳ Cheat sheets/carousels → saves and shares

I stopped hoping for virality and started engineering it.

7 Steps to Grow Your LinkedIn with AI

"I don't have time to post to LinkedIn" is a lie.

60 mins a day can change your visibility forever.

99% consume, only 1% create.
The top 1% of that 1% dominate.

They're not lucky. They're consistent.
They treat LinkedIn like a growth channel.

Not a distraction.

This platform is a goldmine for visibility and revenue.

The algorithm isn't ignoring you - you're ignoring it:

15 mins: Engage before posting
↳ Comment on 5–7 posts from peers, leaders, and ICPs.
↳ Share standout posts with your take to add value.
↳ Build a creator circle to boost early engagement.

15 mins: Create and publish
↳ Use a saved idea and run it through Stanley.
↳ It writes like you - not like generic AI slop.
↳ Keep it skimmable: hook → value → CTA.

15 mins: Engage after you post
↳ Reply to comments with speed and substance.
↳ Ask follow-ups, share insights, keep it flowing.
↳ Don't post and ghost - turn it into dialogue.

10 mins: DMs & relationship building
↳ Reply to every DM with warmth and purpose.
↳ Start 1–2 chats with recent connections or fans.
↳ Lead with value, not pitches - stay top of mind.

5 mins: Build your network
↳ Send 5–7 connection requests with intent.
↳ Prioritise engaged users and ICP matches.
↳ Grow your audience, not just your numbers.

LinkedIn rewards consistency, clarity, and connection.

This system is how top creators stay top of mind.

Which LLM to Choose?

I built an agentic AI workflow in 4 minutes flat.

Zapier's Copilot just changed how I build forever:

I used to build automations from scratch.

- Stared at blank screens, completely lost
- Wasted entire days figuring it out
- Never knew where to start

Until I discovered Zapier's Copilot.

Here's how I built a content system that thinks:

Step 1: Open Zapier

Click the Copilot chat window.

I typed: "Build a content approval system: Capture content ideas with an interface, use an agent to draft a brief, and email it for team approval."

That's it. Natural language.

Step 2: Watch Copilot Build

Copilot builds your entire system:
↳ Interfaces to capture content ideas
↳ Tables automatically store your data
↳ Agents that generate the content briefs
↳ Zaps that connect and trigger everything

Copilot hands off between tools without losing context.

Step 3: Copilot Writes Everything

Copilot didn't just build the workflow.

It wrote:

☑︎ Form questions for my interface
☑︎ Relevant fields for my table database
☑︎ Prompts that told the agent how to create briefs
☑︎ HTML templates for approval emails

My entire workflow was guided, from analysing form submissions to emailing generated structured content briefs.

I didn't have to read any documentation.

Step 4: The Agentic Layer

This isn't automation.
It's intelligent orchestration.

Your workflow now:
↳ Agents read form data and make decisions
↳ Each step triggers the next automatically
↳ Data flows between tools with full context
↳ Workflows execute based on my rules

Now, when someone submits an idea, it generates a content brief and sends it for approval automatically.

All connected. All context-aware.

What workflow would you build first? 👇

Save this. Your processes are about to get smarter.
