🟦 "I smuggle doggies into your feed!" ➡️ LinkedIn™️ Certified // Social Media Lecturer @ University of Vienna ➡️ Social Selling / B2B Trainings for Sales/Marketing/HR teams ➡️ Thought Leadership for CxOs ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Most B2B marketing strategies fail because they treat LinkedIn as a distribution channel rather than a Trust Infrastructure. For CMOs in the DACH region, the challenge is shortening the sales cycle through Semantic Authority.

If your team’s content lacks a distinct "Topic Fingerprint," it is labeled as background noise and buried. I help executives and teams extract their deep expertise and structure it so the Knowledge Graph recognizes them as indispensable authorities.

The 3-Step Authority Framework:
1) Audit for Entity Clarity to ensure search algorithms categorize you correctly.
2) Deploy a PAR-based content system to build proof-of-work.
3) Automate the "noise" while personalizing the "signal" to increase high-value lead conversion.

I help marketing leaders transform their executive teams into thought leaders, ensuring your brand is the "First-Mover" in your vertical's digital ecosystem.

My 3×3 Authority System

🔷 Profile (The Anchor): Beyond keywords. We build a conversion path based on proof and your unique value line.
🔷 Network (The Graph): Targeted ICP mapping and trust-building DMs that treat your network as a high-value asset, not a list.
🔷 Content (The Fingerprint): Moving from generic updates to Actionable and Structured Expertise. We focus on depth that survives semantic scrutiny.

The 12-Week Roadmap

Weeks 1–5: Extraction. Kickoff, goal setting, and profile optimization to establish your baseline authority.
Weeks 6–9: Refinement. Building your content pillars and testing CTAs against the "Knowledge Graph" logic.
Weeks 10–12: Scaling. Handover of a sustainable quarterly plan and KPI tracking that measures real business impact.

Proofs of Concept (Anonymized)

❇️ Industry: Metals (DACH region), 11-person team.
✅ Result: +41% target-audience reach via semantic authority (zero media spend).
✅ Outcome: +12 qualified demo requests and an earned C-level speaking slot.

❇️ Industry: Finance (DACH region), 2k+ employees.
✅Result: +280% internal interaction, +220% reach for the company page

Stop creating background noise. Start building your Topic Fingerprint.
