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.

I started BAMF to help others achieve the same results I enjoyed from my own personal LinkedIn efforts.

In fact, I was so successful at generating organic interest on LinkedIn that I’ve been profiled in publications such as Forbes, BuzzFeed, Entrepreneur, Bloomberg, and more.

Our innovative approach to LinkedIn content creation has been so effective, it’s practically put our lead generation on autopilot.

BAMF grew into a multi-million dollar agency in a matter of months, using little more than the same LinkedIn growth hacks you can learn for free in my LinkedIn Bible guide.

The BAMF system executes proven LinkedIn growth processes, transforming our clients into influencers and their businesses into growth engines.

I’ve used it myself. I’ve used it to help hundreds of other entrepreneurs.

I set up “funded.club” to help other founders recruit and grow their teams without paying huge agency fees or having to expand their own HR and recruiting staff.

We work closely with management teams as a dedicated, outsourced recruiting platform to bring top developers, designers, sales, marketing and support talent to the team, efficiently. 
Funded.club also provides investor readiness tools and access to funding partners to help founders fuel their dreams.
We're a fully-remote, global team following a "Teal" structure of self-organizing teams.

Managing Director

Funded.club CEO | People Leader | Startup Board Member & Advisor | Public Speaker | Funding Expert | Singer-Songwriter

25+ years in businesses including 9 years in startups: 
Sales rep > Recruiter > Head of HR > Rockstar (yes really :) > startup(s) CEO > startup advisor.
 
I've interviewed and advised thousands of startup teams over the past 5 years as the Founder and CEO of Funded.club (plus many more in public speaking engagements).

In addition to growing Funded.club, I'm spending some time on boards and mentoring exciting startups. I was lucky to live through a business accelerator experience at Startupbootcamp with >100 mentors, so it's really fun to give back to this startup community now. 

In my free time, I still enjoy making music and videos, going on family adventures, and sometimes I drag my middle-aged body around a triathlon course. I swim, cycle, and run slow, but it's great to switch off and get away from screens and wifi :)
