Let AI do the heavy lifting for your Sales.

Your sales team is drowning in manual tasks: prospecting, lead research, CRM hygiene. 
They’re busy, but not productive. And your pipeline shows it.

Every hour wasted on boring and tedious tasks is a deal not closed.
You’re paying top talent to do what AI could handle in seconds. 

Meanwhile, your competitors are already automating and scaling with precision. 
Fall behind, and it’s game over.

TC9 builds AI-powered GTM engines that do the heavy lifting, so your team can focus on closing, not clicking. 

We blend strategy, automation, and intent signals to unlock growth at scale.
No fluff. Just efficiency at every level.

Ready to join the modern sales, without burning out your team?

Varun, cofounder at Clay, extended his European tour to add Paris.
The call for French croissants was too strong.

Or it's the incredible French Clay community that got him excited.

Probably both.

Anyway, we had to make it count!

So we decided to go big, and to involve some major actors in the GTM industry!

Here are the (amazing) speakers:

​- Varun Anand (ofc) - CEO and Cofounder Clay

Stop treating your prospects like a mass audience.
They’ll notice.

Shift from a "1 to many" mindset to genuine 1-1 communication.

Your emails should feel like they were crafted specifically for each recipient

Not just another mass outreach attempt.

Here are 9 ways to improve your cold emails:

1️⃣ Research the prospect’s industry

Identify what keeps them up at night.

Tailor your message to address these issues directly
Offering a solution that fits their needs.

3️⃣ Highlight common interests

Find common ground.

Whether you went to the same school or have a mutual connection.

Mentioning this can make your email stand out.

4️⃣ Reference their work

Mention a recent project or achievement of theirs.

This shows you’re genuinely interested in them.
Not just looking to sell something.

5️⃣ Keep it short and sweet

No one has time to read a novel.
Be concise and get to the point quickly.
Respect their time.

6️⃣ Follow up thoughtfully

If you don’t get a response, send a follow-up email.

Add something new to keep the conversation going.

7️⃣ Be authentic

Let your personality shine in your emails.
Be yourself.

8️⃣ Offer value

Offer something of value to them.

How to fail your cold email campaigns:
(and what to do instead)

In cold email, your opening lines are crucial.

Besides your subject line, this is what will make your prospect read your email (or not).

Some of the best lines to be sure to fail:

→ "Let me introduce myself."
→ "I am sorry to disturb you."
→ "Did you enjoy your weekend?"
→ "I hope this email finds you well."
→ "Did you know that [random fact]?"
→ “I saw your page and decided to reach out."
→ "Would you be interested in [your services]?"

Now, instead of these clichés, here are a few tips so you are relevant to your prospects:

→ Do thorough research (or let AI do it for you)
→ Include a clear and low-commitment CTA
→ Demonstrate industry knowledge
→ Offer a free (and good) resource
→ Highlight unique selling points
→ Be a teacher, not a preacher
→ Personalize your approach
→ Focus on their pain points
→ Provide value upfront
→ Be concise and clear
→ Use social proof
→ Be human

I hope this helps! 🙌

I’ve been doing cold email for the last 7 years.
Many things changed, but not these 3 key principles.

Cold email still works incredibly well.
But most people still do it wrong.

Master these 3 key principles, and you will be future-proof:

(no matter the latest changes from Gmail)

1️⃣ - Get your targeting right

If you’re not sure who you’re talking to, you’re not doing cold email.

You’re spamming.

A clear ICP means reputation saved, easier list building, and relevance.

2️⃣ - Get your technical infrastructure right

Technical setup was always important.
It’s now non-negotiable.

Fix your deliverability or be invisible, no matter how good your offer is.

I used to deal with the technical setup manually.
(and it wasn’t fun)

Today, tools like Zapmail.ai handle everything for me.
I definitely recommend you do the same!

3️⃣ - Get your messages right

A.k.a. being relevant.
Not clever. Not cute. Not vague.

Just real, researched, and resonant.
Anything less gets ignored.

Cold email isn’t dead, it just grew up.

The rules changed. But these principles didn’t.

And today is your chance to upgrade your infrastructure for a ridiculously low price!

Zapmail.ai is going crazy on Black Friday promotions:

→ Super cheap pre-warmed domains + mailboxes
→ $9.99 .COM domains (cheapest anywhere)
→ ZapShield domain protection → lifetime
→ Inbox placement tests → lifetime
→ Zapbox (unified inbox) → free

I rarely promote tools like this, but this one is too good to be ignored!

3 Key Principles After 7 Years Of Cold Email

Sales teams are quietly splitting into two very different worlds.
And one of them is dying.
 
Old habits block growth.
Leading your Sales reps to burn out fast.
 
Now is the time for smart systems to scale better.
 
The old school way:
→ Reps get stuck with long, costly contracts.
→ Rely on massive SDR teams to hit impossible targets.
→ Churn explodes when exhaustion sets in.
 
The new way:
→ GTM engineers choose flexible, usage-based tools.
→ They build lean sales engines powered by automation.
→ Satisfaction soars with performance that scales.
 
Manual work doesn’t make you valuable.
Automation makes you unstoppable.
 
The best sales pros don’t fear tech.

They design it.

In case you missed it, I'm proudly hosting an exclusive Clay event on Thursday!

Varun Anand, cofounder of Clay, added Paris to his European tour.

He’s going to drop GTM gems for 2026 and beyond.

And he won't be alone on stage!

The top outbound tools are joining him.
lemlist and Salesforge.ai 🔥 will share the stage.

Two killer data providers are here too.
Icypeas and Findymail are ready to drop insights.

This is the future of GTM, all in one room.

If you’re around, this is the room to be in.

The guest list is almost full. Don't miss out!
It's happening in two days!

Author of the poetry book "Do you feel the same". The book is about a part of my life, I didn't want to forget that's why I made a book about it so I shall never forget what I've been through. 

The book is available in both, paperback and kindle edition.

Starting from 1-st of December I’ve been diving in for 30 days, searching for things to be discovered, unspoken deep from inside of me, as it’s been happening so much, so often. I would’ve spent times to thoughts, coming out of somewhere, by default reaching out into the deepest waters my mind was drawn to.
Honestly, this book is giving a realistic view of my very living, how thoughts were flowing like a river as soon as they were throwing a target to identify the born newness.

Co-Founder

all-round social media queen • Freelance Social Media Manager & Content Creator | 2x published author

Everyone wants to stand out on LinkedIn.
But only a few turn visibility into clients, cash, and credibility.

That’s the difference between just posting… and actually growing a business.

I’m Marina, a LinkedIn Strategist and Freelance Coach. 

Since 2020, I’ve helped 150+ founders, freelancers & creators build personal brands that don’t just get likes but they generate revenue.

✍️ 3,500+ posts created
📊 225M+ post impressions
💰 €6.3M+ tracked revenue
📈 150+ personal brands launched

But numbers are just half the story.
Here’s the journey that shaped them ↓

2020 — Nanny in Paris, no clue what I was doing
2021 — Landed my first €1K client from LinkedIn only
2022 — Built a 5-figure content business from my laptop
2023 — Launched my agency to help others do the same
2024 — Scaled to 150+ clients, grew to 54K+ followers on LinkedIn
2025 — Rebuilding stronger: high-ticket offers, smarter funnels, bigger results

Because personal branding isn’t just content.
It’s conversion strategy. Positioning. Offers. Monetization.

It’s how you become the obvious choice in your space.

Want a brand that does more than go viral?

→ Founders: Apply to build your LinkedIn revenue engine

→ Freelancers: Join my private training & client attraction system

→ Everyone else: Stick around for weekly posts on growth, strategy & sales

You don’t need to be louder.
You need to be clearer.

Let’s build a brand that pays you back.

📩 Sponsorships, collabs & client requests → contact@marinapanova.com

I shouldn’t be a personal branding coach.
Not with my background.

Tbh… uni drained my soul. 
(Sorry professors, love u but no.) 
I never ever worked a corporate job. 
My first “career step” was being a nanny in Paris.

Nothing about me looked like the makings of a LinkedIn coach.

But...

The things I was embarrassed about became my unfair advantage:

How to create opportunities without a CV. 
I learned how to build brands without credentials. 
How to stand out when you have nothing to “prove.”

And that’s exactly why founders and freelancers trust me now.

Because I built everything from scratch.

And I can do it over and over again.

The standard route was never mine. 
Uni wasn’t made for people like me. 
Office life never appealed to me.

So I created a path people like me could actually succeed in.

If you’ve ever looked at your past and thought: 
“I don’t fit the mould”…

Good.

The mould is outdated.

My biggest LIFE lessons?

Your fear is proof you’re growing. 
Your non-traditional path is a brand. 
Your setbacks are stories in disguise.

The world doesn’t need more perfect resumes. 
It needs more people who refuse to wait for permission.

So here’s your sign: 
Build the thing anyway.

What “rule” about success did YOU break?

♻️ Repost if this hit you

I turn your personal brand into a sales engine | Social Media Strategist #1 LinkedIn Creator from North Macedonia 🇲🇰

I’ve never sent a CV in my life.
And the only reason that was possible?

I started my personal brand early.

Before I had clients.
Before I felt “ready.”
Before I had results to brag about.

I showed up anyway.
And that decision changed everything.

Because when you start early:

You build trust before you need it 
You stop chasing and start being chosen
You attract opportunities you never expected
You become known before you’re asked to prove yourself

My personal brand opened every door for me.

So once my skills and credibility grew,
I doubled down on one thing:

Consistency + visibility.

If you want doors to open for you too?
Start today.

Not when you feel ready.
Not when everything is perfect.

Today.

2 months ago, a client came to me with less than 1k followers.

Zero activity.
No real lead flow. 
Nothing for people to connect with.

Today?
We crossed 3,500 followers.
Generated 6 leads (signed clients).
And been hitting 80K weekly impressions.

All in 60 days.

Just clarity, consistency, and a brand people finally understand.

Here’s what changed:

We made his positioning 100% clear
We created content that felt like him 
We strategised deeper technical tips 
We built an offer people actually want

Results don’t come from posting more.
They come from posting right.

And watching someone go from “I don’t know what to say” to “I just signed another client”

is honestly my favourite part of this job.

Proud is an understatement ❤️

P.S. Open doors for only 2 more clients before the 2026.

If you want a similar transformation, comment “CLIENT” and I’ll send you the breakdown of the exact system we used.

I used to think LinkedIn rewarded the best content.

If your post was smart, valuable, well-written...
the algorithm would do the rest.

I hate to say it but...

LinkedIn doesn’t reward the best content.
It rewards the best systems.

I learned that the hard way.

Some of my best posts flopped.
While others that felt average? Took off.

And it wasn’t about quality.
It was about strategy.

So I stopped guessing
and built a system.

Here’s what I do every time I post 👇

✅ Warm up the feed
→ Comment on 20–30 posts
→ Reconnect with quiet leads

✅ Pin 3–4 comments after posting
→ Freebie
→ Soft CTA
→ Personal story

✅ Reply fast
→ No ghosting
→ Start real convos

✅ Drop in 2–3x/day
→ Keep the reach moving
→ Like + reply to new comments

✅ Repost smart
→ 5–10h later
→ Increase your reach
These are small moves.

Because content alone isn’t enough anymore.

You need a way to turn attention into action.

And if you’re still just posting and hoping…

Try posting with a system instead.

That’s how you win here.

♻️ Use this system this week.
Repost it and share what changes in your results.

Because strategy > hope.

How to write a LinkedIn story post people can’t scroll past

If you want your stories to go viral…

Stop writing random stories. 
Start writing structured ones.

Here’s the 6-part framework I use (and teach my clients) to turn a personal story into a sales engine 👇

1️⃣ The Hook → Start with conflict + stakes 
2️⃣ The Setup → Share a relatable breaking point 
3️⃣ The Shift → Show real resourcefulness over polish 
4️⃣ The Grit → Give real win examples (skip the ego) 
5️⃣ The Rehook → Turn focus back to the reader 
6️⃣ The Results + CTA → Always inspire action

When you put these together → you get posts that:

→ Grab attention instantly 
→ Drive comments, DMs, leads 
→ Build deep trust with your audience

📌 Repost & I'll review one of your personal posts

If you’ve ever opened LinkedIn and thought:

→ “I have no idea what to post.”
→ “Nothing sounds like me.”
→ “Why is this taking so long?”

Trust me - I’ve been there.
Not because I lacked ideas.

But because I lacked a repeatable way to find them.

That’s why I built a workflow inside MagicPost that gives me content ideas in literally 5 minutes.

(And yes… it’s the same one I use every single day.)

Here’s exactly how it works 👇

1. Open the Inspiration tab
2. Filter by creator, format, or topic
3. Find posts already performing
4. Save anything that sparks an idea
5. Click “Edit post” inside MagicPost
6. Rewrite it in your TOV and style
7. Publish your version in minutes

The top 1% of creators aren’t “naturally creative.”
They just don’t wait for ideas to magically appear.
They build workflows that guarantee them.

If you want to finally post with clarity, ease, and intention…
this carousel shows you how I do it.

How I find post ideas in 5 minutes

Your personal brand isn’t broken, but it’s confusing.

If people don’t know:
→ what you do
→ who you help
→ why they should care...

Then you’ve got a clarity problem.
And no one follows confusion.

Six fixes for a broken personal brand

pov: your bank account finally matches the life you always wanted

This Christmas…
I’m flying to Canada, Toronto and staying in one of the most expensive hotels in the country.

And for the first time ever, I didn’t feel guilty pressing “book.”

Two years ago, I hadn’t even seen that amount in my bank account.

The idea of spending it on a hotel felt impossible.

Unrealistic.
Delusional, even.

Back then, I was drowning:

Struggling to find clients. 
Struggling to land a proper job. 
Struggling to afford a comfortable life.
Struggling under the pressure of living in Paris.
Struggling to build a future that didn’t terrify me.

So I created my own way.

And my partner was the only person who believed in me on the days I wanted to give up.

Fast forward to now:

I doubled my income.
I stopped accepting “barely enough.”

And I gave my 18-year-old self the life she dreamed of having.

Hard work pays off.
Gratitude pays off.
Belief pays off.

I’m doing this for the girl who had no plan, no money, and no safety net…
just ambition, resilience, and a refusal to quit.

Grateful. Proud.

And ready for my first Christmas in Canada. 🎄

P.S. Who’s in Canada? Let’s meet.

Most people hit “publish” and walk away.
But the first comment under your post?

It’s free real estate.

It can:

→ Drive traffic to your offer or newsletter 
→ Keep readers in your ecosystem
→ Boost engagement and replies
→ Add context or personality

6 months ago, I started testing pinned comments.

Since then:

Real leads in my inbox.
Every post performs better.
More saves + more profile visits.

The first few comments are your secret weapon.

Use them to guide attention, drive clicks, and build deeper engagement.

Repost & I’ll share with you my pinned comment strategy guide (you can implement right away).

Do you pin comments under your posts?

How to Pin comments

Most freelancers don’t fail from lack of skill.
They fail because they don’t know what to do first… 
what to do next…and what to ignore completely.

That's I built a simple roadmap anyone can follow
