Ever felt like you’re doing everything right in your career, but still on the edge of burnout?

Yeah, me too.

I’m Nia. I'm a creator and speaker helping young professionals build fulfilling, sustainable careers without losing themselves in the process.

Over the past 3 years, I’ve worked across the marketing world, from managing high-profile personal brands agency-side to shaping content strategies in-house. That experience taught me a lot about ambition, burnout, and the messy middle we don’t talk about enough.

So I started sharing it.

In 2022, I began posting on LinkedIn. Not as an expert, but as someone figuring it out in real time.
And somewhere along the way, 20,000+ people decided to come along for the ride.

Since then, I’ve been:

🏆 Awarded Best Breakthrough Marketer (2024) by Passionfruit
✨ Named one of Alt Marketing School’s Top 100 Marketers To Watch (2024)
💬 Featured by Girls In Marketing as a Top Marketer To Follow and as a course contributor (Laying The Foundations for Career & Marketing Success)

Now I help my audience:

→ create habits that actually last
→ rethink success beyond hustle and burnout
→ build careers that align with who they are, not just what they do

If you’re a brand looking to reach ambitious Gen Z professionals, or you're searching for an authentic, relatable voice on career growth and mindset, let’s talk.

Helping you build a high-converting Personal Brand while saving 90% of your time | Social Media Management for Personal brands

Here’s a reality check: there are only 2 ways to get clients online.

1️⃣ Chase them.
2️⃣ Attract them.

Most people are stuck in the first camp - cold DMs, random posts, endless engagement… 
and still crickets.

And even if you’re damn good at what you do:
→ You’re invisible.
→ Your message is scattered.
→ You blend in instead of standing out.

Truth is? You don’t have a marketing problem. You have a positioning problem.

And that’s exactly what I fix.

I help solopreneurs build authority that pulls clients to you - like bees to honey.

Imagine this instead:
✦ Inbound leads landing in your DMs.
✦ Clients asking how to pay you.
✦ No awkward sales calls.
✦ Content working for you, not the other way around.
✦ A booked-out calendar without stress or guesswork.

Here’s how we do it (no fluff):
✅ Nail your positioning so the right people notice you
✅ Create content that attracts inbound leads (bye-bye blank page stress)
✅ Turn followers into paying clients
✅ Build demand so you never rely on referrals again

If you’re done with cold pitching, content confusion, and hoping referrals show up…
…and ready to flip the switch so your brand sells for you…

DM me “SWITCH” and let’s get started.

Pooja Rathi

I lost half of my business overnight.

No warning. No backup. No appeal that worked.

In 2023, my Instagram account with 12k+ followers got disabled, right around the time Threads launched. And just like that, the platform I was fully dependent on disappeared.

At the time, everything lived on Instagram.
Leads.
Visibility.
Inbound.

One switch flipped and it was gone.

So when the account went down, it wasn’t just an app glitch. It felt like someone pulled the plug on my income.

I remember thinking:
What now? Do I start from zero? Do I quit?

I had two options:
1. Rebuild the audience
2. Rebuild the business

Most people choose option one.
I didn’t.

I stopped chasing followers.
Stopped obsessing over reach.
Stopped waiting to “get back to 10k.”

Instead, I fixed the foundation.

I focused on:
- clear positioning
- problem-first content
- showing how I think, not just what I know
- giving people a next step
- Building newsletter

I wrote for buyers, not browsers.

And here’s what happened:
Started building authority and getting clients.
Inbound came back.

Without virality.
Without a big audience.
Without being tied to a platform.

Here’s the rule most people learn too late:

You don’t lose business when you lose followers.
You lose business when your business only works because of followers.

Followers are rented. Systems are owned.

Losing that account sucked.

But it forced the right lesson:
Stop building profiles. Build businesses.

If you want the exact system I used to turn content into clients without having a huge following, I put it into a free doc called Content to Cash.

Link is in the comments. 

[or comment 'ctc' I'll send it your way.

Turning Content into Clients for Coaches & Advisors. The Inbound System that builds authority and drives sales on repeat. Install my content to cash system [ Check featured section ]

I kill 90% of my content ideas (to save the best 10%)

Most business owners post everything they think of. I do the opposite.

If an idea doesn’t survive these 4 questions, it never sees the light of day.

Step 1: The ROI Filter
I ask: Which stage does this serve?
Awareness, consideration, or decision.
If it doesn’t move someone closer to working with me, it’s out.

Step 2: Check for lived proof.
Have I done this?
Seen it work?
Applied it with a client or in my own business?
If it’s just theory, it doesn’t get posted.

Step 3: Run the “today” test.
Is this a problem my ideal client is actively dealing with right now?
Not “nice to know.” Not “interesting.”
Urgent.

Step 4: Offer alignment test.
If this post has nothing to do with:
 • my freebie
 • my service
 • my offer ecosystem
I rethink it.
Content shouldn’t be random. It should quietly point somewhere.

Killing the bad ideas is only half the battle. 

Making the good ones perform is the other half.

I put together a free guide. It’s the exact system I use to turn that '10%' into high-performing posts - inbound clients.

Comment “CASH”, to install it in your business.

When you go to buy a car, do you want to hear the salesman's "top 5 tips for driving"? No. You want to see the crash test ratings. You want to see the performance stats. You want proof that the machine does what it says it does.
​
Your prospects are the same.
​
They don't want your "3 ways to stay motivated." They want to see how you took a client from hell to heaven in x time using your system.
​
Show them. 

P.S. I put together 7 money printing templates that I use to show them how I take clients from hell → heaven. Link is in the comments.

Teaching is different from positioning yourself as the solution.
Building trust is different from triggering a buying decision.
Having an audience is different from owning a pipeline.
Sounding smart is different from sounding relevant.
Posting content is different from running a system.
Having followers is different from having demand.
Sharing value is different from showing value.
Being visible is different from being chosen.
Going viral is different from getting paid.
Being liked is different from being hired.
Consistency is different from direction.
Attention is different from intent.

If you don’t build for conversion, all you’re doing is performing.

Helping you build a predictable client-getting system on social media without burning out. 1 system → 5–7 leads/wk. 4+ yrs building inbound machines. DM “INBOUND” for deets.

How I create a Lead Magnet that converts like crazy

Most people are stuck in one lane:

→ Awareness content that educates but never sells
→ Consideration content that talks offers but skips trust
→ Engagement bait that gets likes, not buyers

And then they wonder why the pipeline’s dry.

If your content only builds awareness, you’ll get reach, not revenue.

If it only builds interest/consideration, you’ll be everyone’s favourite free resource.

If it only pushes conversion, you’ll sound like a sales bot people scroll past.

Content works when it moves people.

Your content actually needs this funnel:

1. Awareness
 Make them stop.
 Name the problem they haven’t articulated yet.
 Say the quiet part out loud.

2. Interest / Consideration
 Make them stay.
 Stories. Process. Proof.
 Show how you think, not just what you know.

3. Conversion
 Make the next step obvious.
 No pressure. No “DM me NOW.”
 Just a clean, aligned invite.

Miss even one stage and this happens:
→ You’re always posting
 → You get views but no leads
 → People love your content but never pay you

But when the funnel flows?
→ People binge
→ DMs turn into “how do I work with you?”
→ Clients sign without chasing or convincing

Your content isn’t here to be everywhere. It’s here to take someone somewhere.

Stop building content islands. Build a path.

Awareness → Interest → Consideration → Conversion

If you want to turn your content into clients without sounding salesy or posting 24/7, Comment “C2C” and I’ll send you the Content to Cash guide.

90% of LinkedIn profiles don’t sell. Here is why:

1. I don’t see any professional when I see your profile picture.
2. Your cover photo doesn’t grab my attention.
3. Your headline doesn’t show what you bring to the table.
4. Your About section is too focused on you, not what you offer.
5. Your text is hard to read, too dense.
6. Your featured section is filled with your posts.
7. Your profile doesn't make me feel like you can solve my problem
8. I don’t see any social proof on your profile.
9. You haven’t connected with the challenges I face.
10. Your content doesn’t sound like you.
11. When I see your content, I don't trust you.
12. You failed to trigger my emotions.
13. You repost other's content more than posting yours.
14. It’s not clear what makes your solution stand out.
15. You don’t seem like an industry expert.
16. I don’t understand how you can make a difference for me.
17. You don't have any clear CTA on your profile.

Fix these.

I'm not the only one who's not buying.

I asked AI [gemini] about me.
This is what came up. [ see screenshot ]

And here’s the part most people should pay attention to:
If AI can’t find you, your audience won’t either.

Not because AI is magic.

But because AI pulls from the same places humans trust:
 – clear positioning
 – consistent messaging
 – visible proof
 – repeatable ideas

If your name, work, or perspective doesn’t show up anywhere coherent, you don’t exist digitally - no matter how often you post.

This isn’t about “going viral.” It’s about being legible.

When someone looks you up:
 – Do they immediately understand what you do?
 – Can they tell who you help?
 – Can they see proof you’ve done it before?

AI visibility is just a byproduct of something deeper:
clarity compounded over time.

If your brand is clear, systems pick it up. If it’s vague, nothing does.

The goal isn’t to impress an algorithm.

It’s to build something so clear that everyone can recognise it. Including the right people and AI.

PS. I'm taking 3 business owners & coaches to help them make their work discoverable, trusted, and conversion-ready. DM me “STRATEGY” and let's see if we are a good fit.

Maturity is realising it won’t happen overnight, but quitting early guarantees it never will.

If you’re an Introvert solopreneur business owner, this is for you.

If the thought of sales calls, group calls, or “turn your camera on” makes you tense up - you are not alone. 

I know this because… I am one too.

And for the longest time, mentorship felt exhausting instead of helpful.

I had to:
- speak up in group calls
- ask “basic” questions out loud
- explain your whole business in 30 minutes
- think fast, talk faster

By the time the call ended, you were more drained than clear.
And half the questions I actually wanted to ask?

I never did.

That’s exactly why I created Strategy Switch.

Because introverts don’t need more noise. They need space to think.

With Strategy Switch:
- you ask questions when they come up
- you don’t have to perform or think on the spot
- you can explain things properly (without being interrupted)
- you get thoughtful, written responses you can come back to

No calls.
No group pressure.
No awkward silences.

Just clarity - on your terms.

This is for the business owner who:
- hates calls but loves depth
- thinks better in writing
- wants honest feedback without small talk
- needs support that fits real workdays

I didn’t create this because it’s trendy. I created it because I needed it myself - and couldn’t find it.

If you’re an introvert who’s tired of forcing yourself into systems that don’t fit you, this might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

DM me “CHAT” and I’ll share the details.

If copy-pasting AI posts could get you clients, you’d already be booked.

But most people aren’t stuck because they “write badly.”

They’re stuck because they confuse activity with strategy.

Posting daily feels productive.
Using AI feels efficient.
Following prompts feels safe.

And that’s exactly why it doesn’t convert. Clients don’t buy content.

They buy clarity.

Clarity on:
- who you help 
- what problem you solve
- why you’re different
- when it’s time to act

Your audience isn’t asking,
 “Is this well written?”

They’re asking:
 “Is this for me?”

If your content doesn’t signal relevance fast, 
attention drops. Trust dies. Nothing moves.

Fix the foundation.
Then let AI support it.
Not the other way around.

—
I put together a guide on how to fix the foundation. Comment GUIDE and I’ll send it.

Your post could flop in likes… But still work like crazy.

Here’s the trick: check your audience insights.

If it’s the people who pay you, hire you, or partner with you → keep posting.

If not → rewrite.

Vanity metrics don’t pay bills. Attention to the right people does.

My client messaged me saying…

“Ur content strategy is dangerous. I almost hired you twice.”

That’s it. That’s the post.


PS. Taking Done for you Content strategy Clients for Feb [ Only 2 spots ]. DM 'STRATEGY' for details. 

Note: This is NOT for you if you dont have at least 1 client result and a $500+ offer.

9 AM.
Client call.
Not about posting more.
About making what she’s - already posting - bring clients.

Because here’s the truth no one wants to say out loud:

If you’re posting consistently
and still asking “why isn’t this converting?” it’s not your effort. It’s the missing bridge between content and clients.

That’s literally what we mapped today:
what to keep,
what to kill,
and how to turn content into a lead system instead of a creative chore.

If you’re tired of posting just to stay visible
and want your content to actually bring inquiries—

I put the framework into a free guide.
No fluff. No trends. Just clarity.

Turning Content into Clients for Solopreneurs. The Inbound System that builds authority and drives sales on repeat. Install my content to cash system [ Check featured section ]

Here’s how I turned content → cash anyway:

I didn’t try to grow an audience.
I built demand.
I wrote content for buyers, not browsers.

I talked about real problems people were already paying to solve.
I showed my content strategy and process, instead of performing expertise.
And I always gave a clear next step.

That’s it.

Small audience.
High intent.
Clear positioning.

Because the truth is:

Followers don’t pay you.
Content clarity does.

I put this entire content-to-clients process into a guide, exactly how I generate inbound leads from content without posting more or chasing numbers.

If your content looks good but doesn’t convert into clients, this will show you what’s missing.

DM me “CONTENT” and I’ll send it over.

If your freebie doesn’t hurt to give away, REWRITE it.

The difference isn't the size of the audience. It’s the depth of the leverage.

Burned-out founders focus on Maintenance (just staying afloat). Leveraged CEOs focus on Multiplication (making every post work 10x harder).

If you want to stop the daily grind and start operating like a CEO, my CTC guide can help you build the systems that turn your content into a predictable revenue machine.

Ready to shift from "Busy" to "Profitable"? Comment ‘CASH’ and I’ll send it your way.

The Leveraged CEO vs. The Burned-out Founder

“I’m good at what I do, my content just can't seem to bring in the right clients.”

That’s exactly where Laquil was when we started working together.

Great at educating, but not at converting.

Fast forward just two weeks of tweaking the strategy, and the results speak for themselves:
- 12 high-quality leads (from content that actually lands)
- 2 new clients signed
- Inbound interest from decision-makers
- People who are actually ready to buy

That shift didn’t come from "going viral" or a magic hashtag.

It came from seeing the process differently. We moved away from just "sharing information" and moved toward content positioning and sales psychology that makes the right people raise their hand.

I love that Laquil is finally playing big now. Because when you know your content works, you show up with a different level of confidence.

Is your content getting "claps" but no "clients"?

I’m opening 3 spots inside Content Bridge for February to help you fix your conversions. DM me “CONTENT” and let’s see if we’re the right fit.

Before you stress about engagement or algorithms,

Fix this one thing: Clarity.

Get Clarity on these 3 things first:
→ The problem you solve.
→ Your Ideal Client.
→ What makes you unique.

This will help you:
→ Stop wasting time on activities that don’t drive results.
→ Optimise your profile and content for impact.
→ Create content that works for you 24/7.

With clarity comes results, don’t leave it up to chance. Or you can keep spinning your wheels for a few more months. 

Fix it.

Most social media managers start creating immediately. I don't touch the keyboard for 10 hours. Here's my process:
