Houston Golden is the founder and CEO of BAMF.com — a growth marketing agency based in Venice Beach, CA.

BAMF is known as the world's leading LinkedIn marketing agency for a reason— they get results. 

With over half a billion organic LinkedIn views, our clients are the most viewed people on LinkedIn. If you’ve spent any time at all on LinkedIn, you’ve seen their posts.

They are the masterminds behind some of LinkedIn’s top influencers and entrepreneurs, including Russell Brunson, Rob Dyrdek, Prince Ea, Mark Manson, Jay Shetty, and dozens more.

But, beyond that, Houston is most passionate about helping smaller entrepreneurs make it big, whether it’s by turning them into industry influencers and lead generation machines, or putting them in a position to hit massive growth.

Houston has authored 5 books on the subject of LinkedIn, known as The LinkedIn Bible Collection, been featured in countless high-profile publications, consulted for Fortune 500 companies, and still remains to be an avid surfer and all-around family man. 

He does all of this because he, too, started out as a struggling entrepreneur before turning $0 in seed capital into a business that’s worth millions of dollars.

From bootstrapping to being recognized as one of Forbes’ Top 12 Innovative Founders. It’s been a wild journey for him.

LingoDeer

They say language is the road map of a culture, and during my time writing scripts for LingoDeer's English language learning videos, I swapped my regular hat for an adventurer's helmet as I embarked on an unforgettable odyssey to enrich the paths of A1 to B2 English learners.

🎬 Expertly crafted scripts that turned educational videos into thrilling expeditions into the heart of the English language - who knew learning could be so cinematic?
💡 Waved my wand to materialize interactive audio, reading, writing, and text Q\&A assessments that gave life to LingoDeer's app interface - a living, breathing academy in your pocket.

🔍 Sharpened the fine points of English language nuance and vanquished Chinese to English translation errors - no language barrier could withstand my vigilant guard.
🛠️ Revamped scripts and pre-existing content into a brilliant scaffold to maximize language learning, retention, and production. It was as though every lesson suddenly went Super Saiyan on language acquisition!
