We help B2B Founders sign 5 high ticket clients in 90 days using our flywheel system (Used by 300+ clients). DM me ‘Scale’ if you are interested

You started building a business because you wanted freedom. 

But right now you’re chained to your desk and barely breaking even. 

It doesn’t feel like freedom. 

- You’re talented
- You’ve got some clients 
- You know how to get results 

But it’s not working. 

Most agency owners I work with want three things: 

1) Consistent pipeline with high quality leads
2) A team to delegate client work
3) Clarity on what to work on when

A business that works for you not owns you. 

Here’s how I make that become a reality:

1) We position you to win premium retainers
2) We install a lead gen system to fill up your calendar
3) We fix your systems and process so you lead like a real CEO

We do it together in a focused 90 day sprint. 

Real support that drive results like these: 

📌 Tanner: From $15K with 1 client → $30K/month, in 4 months
📌 Sam: Doubled his agency and hired a new team in 90 days
📌 Tobi: Went from freelancer to $30K/month with A+ clients
📌 Alex: Scaled from $12k to $70k in 4 months
📌 Stephen: Scaled from $10k to $18k by increasing prices
📌 Sammy: Grew by over 50% in 60 days and hired a team

I’ve also done it all myself. Twice. 

Built two 7-figure agencies from scratch.

Now, I coach high-performing agency founders who want more to do the same. 
Minus the mistakes I made (lol). 

So, if you’re:

- Running an agency 
- Already at $5K+/month 
- Ready to scale without losing your sanity 

→ Hit the ‘Book an Appointment’ button in my featured section. 

Join 75+ other Undeniable members scaling beyond their wildest dreams…

And, let’s build the agency you actually want.

Consultant

3 weeks before my Dominican Republic mastermind, I had only sold 3 tickets. 

I had 4 big-name speakers flying in.
Expecting 35 entrepreneurs.
Absolutely no idea how to fill the room.

So I decided to bet on LinkedIn DMs. 

Sales is a numbers game. 
So I sent hundreds of messages. 

At first it was chaos.

Terrible messages. 
Low response rates.
No idea what I was doing.

But I had no choice.

I tested. Refined. Rebuilt.

3 weeks later:

- 150 calls booked
- Mastermind fully booked
- Happy speakers and guests 

But most importantly, I built a DM system that actually works.

Tomorrow at 1PM EST. 
I'm breaking down exactly what I learned.

The framework.
The psychology.
The mistakes that kill conversations.

If you need to book calls fast you need this masterclass.

See you tomorrow. 


BTW. This isn't theory. It's what I built when my back was against the wall and I had no other option.

CEO of Undeniable. The community for ambitious underdog founders who refuse to stay down.

At 30, I scaled an agency to $140k/month. 

6 months later, I was living in my childhood bedroom.

That’s how quickly things can change. 

I’d put everything into that business. 
Worked every hour I was awake. 
Sacrificed relationships. 

And then it was gone. 

No income.
31 years old.
Back in the bedroom I grew up in.

That wasn't the first time I lost everything.
It's happened 3 more times.

Failure doesn't get easier.
But you get stronger.

Every time I lost everything, I learned something:

- How to spot red flags in business partners
- How to protect myself legally
- How to build without losing myself
- How to get back up faster

I've learned these brutal lessons the hard way. 

So now, I'm helping 75+ founders in Undeniable avoid my mistakes.

Watching them scale past $50K/month.
Whilst building businesses they love. 

The setbacks didn't break me.

They built me.

If you're staring at rock bottom right now...

You'll get there.

I promise.


P.S. 3 years later, I'm running the community I wish I had then. The comeback is always bigger than the setback. If you know you know.

I flew to Norway to meet 4 community members in real life. 

It cost $3,000 but the ROI was worth it. 

Victor and Magnus live in Norway. 
Matevz and Tom were also invited. 
Micah and Mark (Undeniable team) joined too. 

We spent 4 days together. 

→ Saw the Northern Lights 
→ Went snowmobiling 
→ Had a professional photoshoot 
→ Ate incredible food 
→ Did a hot sauna and cold plunge

Undeniable covered most of the costs. 

The ROI was through the roof. 

I can’t put it in a spreadsheet. 
I can't show you a graph.

But I can tell you it was worth the investment:

→ 7 founders felt less alone 
→ We built out a referral program with experts 
→ Tom shared advice on LinkedIn DMs
→ We all cried happy tears 
→ We left feeling seen, heard, and backed

You can't measure that.

But you can feel it.

When founders feel supported they perform better. 
They take bigger bets. They’re less likely to quit. 

Most people optimise for metrics they can track.

Leads, revenue, followers.

I'm not saying those don't matter.

But the ROI of community?

It's in the founder who didn't give up.
It's in the sale that was made because someone believed in them.
It's in the room where people actually gave a shit.

That's what Undeniable is.

A room full of people who refuse to let each other fail.

Some things can't be measured.

They can only be felt.


P.S. Undeniable is coming to London this April and we're gonna be bigger and better.

Two 7-figure agencies built. 300+ clients scaled. Your business is next.

Founders, open your LinkedIn DMs right now. 

How many feel like they were written by a human?
How many mention something personal about you?
How many made you laugh?

Probably none. 

Because everyone's automating.
Everyone's blasting the same template to 500 people.
Wondering why no one responds.

Meanwhile, Tom Harman booked 25 calls in February alone for his side business. 

He has a full-time job. 
Only spends one hour a day in the DMs. 

His ICP is $100M CEOs. 
His response rate is 50%. 

Here's his rule for every single DM he sends:
"Could I send this message to anyone else in the world?"

If yes? He doesn't send it.

One of his best openers referenced a founder's frozen pizza brand. 
He asked whether pineapple belongs on pizza.

That CEO replied within the hour.

The fastest way to anyone's heart, regardless of how successful they are, is humour.

Personality. Proof that you actually looked at their profile.

Honestly, it doesn’t require that much work. 

The benchmarks across 10,000 conversations we've run:

→ 200 connection requests/week to ICP 
→ 30% acceptance rate = 240 new connects/month 
→ 30% response rate from personalised DMs = 72 conversations 
→ 25% book a call = 18 qualified calls per month

18 qualified calls a month.

Any agency owner, coach or consultant landing 18 qualified calls a month will scale their business.

And Tom does it in an hour a day. 
Whilst working a full-time job.

Success in the DMs is pretty simple:

Stop automating and start being human.

It's also just more fun.

Founder; I want to take my LinkedIn serious this 2026
Me; I would recommend we test these 4 formats.

LinkedIn provides up to 9 content formats; 

- text
- polls 
- image 
- video
- event
- carousels
- document
- celebrations
-write article (on desktop)

Over my 8+ years on this platform, I not tried two

The celebrations feature got a revamp, but not tried it yet

I have attended several LinkedIn live events, not held one yet

When I talk to founders on the best format to use,
I always boil to 4 main ones. 

The first reason, they have been proven to work
The second one is LinkedIn algo prioritizes them

A few days ago I shared a post on looking into 300+ LinkedIn Creators.

Aside from understanding their LinkedIn positioning, I was noting their primary content formats.

Here is the breakdown; 

1. Text only 

Chris Walker, & Adam Robinson grew to 100k+ using text posts mainly.

And if you are starting out, text post is the best format. 

Importantly, the first 3 lines can make or break the post

I would add, you should consider text structure as well.

2. Image + text caption

If you have noticed, I have boiled my posts to this format.

With a twist though, maxing out on the 3,000 characters

And leaning heavily into on brand visual designs. 

The two factors are crucial for the algo currently
One is 'hacking' the Dwell Time metrics 
Two is about standing out on the Feed

Chris Donnelly, Anthony Pierri, Pierre Herubel
Jake Ward, Vincent Pierri, Nick Broekema 

These are of the best Creators to shadow on visual images/infographics

3. Video + text caption

This format has been a hit & miss for me
Even LinkedIn is indicating mixed feelings 

One quarter, video content is next frontier
The next quarter, my video feature is no more

But if you extrapolate from other platforms
Video is the language of the internet

For LinkedIn, think long form video 
With LinkedIn ads clients, long form does better
Additionally, the platform now has 'total watch time' analytics

One interesting trend am seeing with B2B videos,
Is the rise of video-first LinkedIn B2B Creators
They are contracted to create videos for brands

Ademola Adelakun, Connor Lewis, Todd Clouser
Louis Butterfield, Oyinko K., Alex Sheridan 

These are some example Creators on my feed.

4. Documents

In my experience, this one is a hit or miss format
It's worth testing though. 

Eddie Shleyner does really well with the format
So Jake, Anthony, and Nick that I have mentioned above.

The key difference am seeing boils down to design

The other formats are on demand basis.
Matt Lakajev does well with live events
Andy Mewborn is winning with Polls 

Am putting a 100 examples swipe file.
Comment ' Format ' and I will share it with you

tl:dr; 4 LinkedIn content formats to test as a Founder
p.s: follow me Okerosi Davis 🦒 on linkedin marketing

I took 110 minutes to catchup on the recent ZenABM Bootcamp.[19 lessons from Tim & Gabriel] 

The platform ABM on LinkedIn is running a 11 days long bootcamp by hosting 10+ experts in the space.

No surprise, I follow and are connected to all the experts.

Over the weekend, I took time out to catchup on the recorded webinars on YouTube. 

Today am going to focus on two experts;

- Tim Davidson, founder B2B Rizz
- Gabriel Ehrlich, founder Remotion

Here are my learnings:

From Gabriel; LinkedIn ads TLA Q&A

1.On ad structure, go with campaign type for simplicity.

2.On scaling ads, factor time delay; ad spend & pipeline.

3.On TL ads CTA, ideally at the bottom, but test mid & top.

4.On ABM list, go with company list or filtering for big companies.

5.On proving ROI, pipeline focus; use UTMs, CAPI & self attribution.

6.On exclusions, relies on broadness or narrowness of audience.

7.On ad set, 4/5 is good, pay attention on frequency.

8.On company page, focus on employer branding.

9.On metrics, for TL ads, focus engagement rate.

From Tim: TL Ads for ABM

 10.The Founder the best profile for TL ads 

11. It's great; right: person,content, distribution.

 12. Edit the post & add CTA link to a landing page.
 
 13. If Tim had to choose the content format; videos.

14. Avoid CTA link in the comments as gets buried.

15. If you can get your ideal buyers for TL ads, great.

 16. Leverage partnerships of your brand mentions for TL ads.

 17. Text, image and video content formats but context is pivotal.

 18. The post doesn't have to perform organically, context matters.

 19. Faily TL ads budget relies on audience size, & the cost to reach them.


That is the gist of it.

p.s: let's grow your smb with abm + tl ads
