Over the past decade, I’ve scaled revenue and client success at three SaaS companies from $3M to $50M+ ARR, delivering 110%+ net revenue retention and top 10% NPS scores (65+).

Today, we help recruiting agency owners & Principals ($5M–$20M billings, 5–20 recruiters) land new clients from LinkedIn by becoming a trusted authority in their market. 

Our clients are busy business owners. They don’t want to be “content creators.” 

They want done-for-you exec content that lands new clients. That’s what we do.

In the past 12 months, we’ve generated $5M+ in client billings from LinkedIn by positioning recruiting agency owners as the go-to authorities in their markets.

Our methodology:
→ Revenue Growth Engine - a 3-step system perfected with 40+ founders & recruiting agencies
→ Content strategy that generates demand for contingent and retained searches (not just likes)
→ Strategic outreach to initiate conversations with your ideal clients
→ All requiring just 1.5 hours per week from busy Principals and owners

Our results:
→ 40+ owners and Principals served
→ $5M+ in client billings generated from inbound leads via LinkedIn
→ 8+ qualified inquiries per month within 90 days (average client result)
→ Doubling client pipelines in under 6 months
→ Clients include 7 and 8-figure recruiting agencies commanding $75K+ fees and securing multi-search mandates

And we're just getting started!

We help recruiting business owners who are:
→ Tired of building trust from scratch and ready for clients who arrive pre-sold
→ Reliant on a referral pipeline that has plateaued and feels unpredictable
→ Ready to turn decades of expertise into an inbound client pipeline

One of my highlights of 2025 was spending a week in Sedona in early December.

I'd just wrapped a retreat with the Becoming the Bridge community (great humans!) and made a last min decision to extend my stay.

There’s something about the high desert, red rocks, and mountains that have been around for thousands of years that naturally invite moments of silence and stillness.

And yes — the energy vortex is real !

What was one of your highlights from 2025?

CEO at Frontier Growth Engine | Podcast host at Founder-Led 🎙️

One of my highlights from 2025 was attending a Dr. Joe Dispenza advanced retreat in Nashville. 

It was a fully immersive 7 day experience. 1,500 people. 14-hour days from 6am-8pm. Some days started at 4am. 

A few key takeaways that stayed with me:

1. Most people are living in the past:

Most people are living in a loop where today looks like yesterday. 

If we keep making a copy of a copy of a copy - like an old cassette tape - we’re becoming a cheaper, more diluted version of our true selves. 

To break the loop, we must become greater than the body, the mind, and the environment — all of which are largely conditioned by the past.

“Overcoming is the becoming process.”

The resistance we feel — to get out of bed, go to the gym, or have the hard conversations — is often the past being projected into the future.

The mind predicts an unpleasant experience so the body responds with resistance or avoidance. 

If we can overcome ourselves in those small moments, we step into possibility to a life that feels both more exciting and more peaceful. 

As I wrote in my journal: “If I can overcome myself in the morning, everyone else will be easy” HA!

2. Opening the heart:

The universe only gives us what we feel worthy of receiving. And worthiness comes from an open heart. 

Fear and frustration don’t open the heart. A constantly analytical mind doesn’t open the heart (learned that one the hard way 😄).

There’s nuance here — including practical ways I’ve found to cultivate an open heart — which probably deserves its own post.

The true masters (Jesus, Krishna, Buddha) knew the path: remove anything that stood in the way between them and an unconditionally open heart. 

3. Meditation as remembering:

The world is designed to help us forget our true selves:

• Societal conditioning
• The educational system
• The food we eat

The invisible scripts — when to buy a house, have children, what “success” is supposed to look like, etc, etc. the list is long !

The idea is not to fight against it. But to notice this old software program running and make intentional choices to update it. 

It starts with awareness. 

Meditation is the act of remembering. Of tuning out the noise so we can tune into the intelligence whispering within us.

From a neuroscience perspective, this often corresponds with shifting from high-beta analytical brainwave patterns into slower, more coherent alpha and theta states — states associated with calm focus, creativity, emotional regulation, and heart-brain coherence.

The result - the mind becomes an instrument of the heart:

• Decisions feel clean
• Work feels more easeful
• We feel more regulated, present and grounded

The ultimate goal: 

“Get so good doing it with your eyes closed, you can do it with your eyes open.” 

There were many more takeaways, including a breakthrough experience I had. 

It might be a little “woo” for LinkedIn, so let me know in the comments if you want a Part 2 👇

B2B lags B2C by ~10 years.

Had a great conversation with Will Leatherman and he said it perfectly:

"If B2C’s creator era kicked off in 2014… B2B is right on schedule"

And the playbook is already written:

2016 → B2C social goes mainstream
2019 → Personal brands disproportionately outperform corporate brands
2020s → Distribution > product

Now the same shift is hitting B2B.

Founders & CEOs are becoming the face of their products & services.

Those who start now will be 2–3 years ahead by the time everyone else catches on.

I thought I was decent at discovery calls.

Then I role-played with the author of Gap Selling.

He dismantled my process in 10 minutes.

3 takeaways that completely changed how I run discovery:

1. Product-centric vs. help-centric selling:

Most founders (myself included) jump to the pitch too quickly. 

“Aha — they mentioned a problem. Let me tell them about our solution.”

Keenan . calls this product-centric selling.

Help-centric selling is different.

It goes deep on:
→ What are you trying to do?
→ What’s preventing you from doing it today?
→ What is that costing you?
→ How long has this been going on?
→ Is it actually worth changing?

If you’re not uncovering those, and gettting them to emotionally feel and articulate the pain of their current state, the pitch — and the decision — won’t have real stakes. And will likely fall flat.

2. Get them to quantify the gap

Keenan’s rule: define everything.

“Onboarding takes too long.” How long?

“We’re losing revenue.” How much?

Most founders hear a problem and move on.

But vague problems don’t create urgency. Numbers do.

When they say “$700K is at risk”  it becomes real.

3. Not going deep on consequences

This one got me.

Keenan didn’t stop at the surface issue.

He kept asking: 
→ What happens if referrals dry up next quarter? 
→ What's it costing you to spend 20 hours a week on outbound that goes nowhere? 
→ If you're spending 5 calls just to build trust — is that the best use of your time?

By the end, "I should probably invest more in thought leadership" became a $500K pipeline gap.

He wasn't manufacturing fear. He was helping me connect what I already knew.

Selling isn't about pitching features — it's about the cost of inaction.

Founder-led sellers - Which is harder for you: finding the pain or getting the prospect to quantify it?

Agency > Intelligence.

Garry Tan (Y Combinator CEO) and Andrej Karpathy (former Tesla AI Director) are both saying it:

When AI puts world-class intelligence on tap for $20/month, the bottleneck is no longer knowing.

It's acting.

For founders building movements, this means:

Good product + great distribution > Excellent product + weak distribution.

Product still matters. But distribution is the multiplier. And there's a crowded graveyard of "technically superior" products that never found their market. 

George Mack has a framework for this - the "Jail Cell Test":

"You wake up in a 3rd world jail cell. You’re only allowed to call one person you know to get you out. Who do you call?"

You don't call the person with the the most intelligence or credentials. You call the person with agency.

The one who improvises. Who finds the gap in the fence. Who happens to life instead of waiting for life to happen to them.

I see brilliant founders failing this test every day.

They have the expertise. The track record. The intelligence.

But they're Person A in the image - stuck on the island, spelling "HELP" in the sand with sticks:

• Waiting for referrals
• Waiting to be "discovered"
• Waiting for some future moment before they share what they know

Person B used the same sticks to build a raft.

• Narrating the struggle while they build
• Recruiting before they have a finished product
• Treating distribution as a force multiplier, not a marketing chore

Same resources. Different agency. Different outcomes.

The gap in 2026 isn't knowledge. It's nerve.

High agency for your movement means turning your expertise into trusted distribution - not waiting for permission that isn't coming.

Start building the raft.

What's one move you've been over-analyzing that you could execute today?

Google Slides and PowerPoint have hundreds of engineers.
 
Gamma beat them with 30 people. Here is the play:

Let that sink in.

Those 30 people built this:
→ 50M+ users
→ $50M ARR
→ Profitable since early 2024

No army.
No bureaucracy.
No bloat.

Gamma started in 2020.
Three founders.
Two-bedroom apartment.

Their insight was simple:

People don’t want another design tool.
They don’t want tutorials.
They don’t want layers and menus.
They want to describe what they need and have it created for them.

So Gamma didn’t “add AI” later.
They built the product around AI from day one.

Instead of drag-and-drop, you just type:
“Create a 10-slide investor deck about our Q4 strategy.”

Gamma handles the structure.
The design.
The branding.
Done in about 90 seconds.

Now compare that to the incumbents:
→ Google Slides → hundreds of engineers
→ PowerPoint → an entire Microsoft org
→ Canva → 4,000+ employees

Gamma didn’t compete on features.
They competed on workflow.

Here’s the part most people miss:
AI doesn’t just make teams faster.
It rewrites the math of building companies.
Small teams with AI can now move faster than large teams without it.

No approvals.
No coordination overhead.
No design by committee.
Just leverage.

This is the new playbook:
→ Small, focused team
→ AI-first product
→ Solve one painful problem extremely well
→ Let the product scale, not the headcount

Gamma proved you don’t need enterprise resources to build enterprise-level products anymore.
You just need the right leverage.

And right now, that leverage is AI.

If you’re building something, remember this:
Team size doesn’t determine impact.
Focus does.

♻️ Repost to share it with your audience.

I tested 500+ AI tools this year.

Here's which ones actually matter.

The Hyper Essential tier (the only ones you need):

☑️ OpenAI (your brain)
☑️ Notion (your vault)
☑️ Canva (your visuals)
☑️ Midjourney (your images)
☑️ Cursor (your code)

The Advanced tier (high leverage, use weekly):

→ Claude for deep work
→ Figma for design systems
→ Dash for operations
→ Opus for complex thinking

Mid-useful tools that work but won't change your game. 
Tools that drain your wallet monthly. 
Tools I'm watching but haven't earned their spot.

Here's what I discovered:
Most creators have 20+ tool subscriptions. 
They actually use 5.
You're not missing anything. 
You're just overwhelmed.

The fastest creators don't use more tools. 
They use fewer tools obsessively.
They know their stack inside out. 
They don't waste energy picking tools—they waste it on real work.

What's your actual Hyper Essential tier?

Reply with your top 3.

Every viral video follows a pattern.

99% of creators never find it.

I just found an AI that does.
And it’s completely free.

It doesn’t guess.
It reverse engineers virality.

Then it remixes your content into formats that already work.

Here’s the before and after that made it click:
→ 800 views on the original video
→ 3.7M views after using Buzzy

Same person.
Same product.
Different structure.

That’s the difference between hoping and knowing.

Here’s what nobody tells you:

Virality isn’t creative.
It’s mechanical.

There’s a structure.
A pacing model.
A hook sequence.

Most creators chase trends.
Buzzy learns the viral DNA behind them.

That’s why it feels unfair.

Here’s how to use it in 5 simple steps:
→ Step 1: Go to https://buzzy.now
→ Step 2: Drop your product
→ Step 3: Upload an image or any asset
→ Step 4: Buzzy scans social media for top-performing viral videos
→ Step 5: It breaks down exactly why they went viral
→ Step 6: It remixes your content into 10 proven winning formats

You can launch 10 viral directions
Before others even open CapCut.

No guessing.
No trend-chasing.

Just execution with leverage.

I tested 30 ChatGPT prompts on my LinkedIn content.

Results? 100K+ views. Viral carousels. DM sequences converting at 40%+.

Most creators don't have a system. 
They post randomly and hope something sticks.

I just documented 30 battle-tested ChatGPT prompts that eliminated guesswork:

✓ Content Ideation (100+ ideas in 5 mins)
✓ Copywriting & Sales (DMs, emails, profiles)
✓ Carousels (500K+ view frameworks)
✓ Engagement & Community (comment strategies)
✓ Thought Leadership (12-week positioning)
✓ Lead Generation (conversion formulas)
✓ Video & Storytelling (scripts, repurposing)
✓ Analytics & Optimization (data-driven)

These aren't generic prompts. You input your niche, and ChatGPT outputs an exact copy ready to paste.

Real example:
Input: "AI education" + "content creators"

Output: 20 specific post ideas
- "ChatGPT skill most creators miss."
- "Why your AI content isn't viral."
- "3 frameworks for 100K view posts"

Systems beat talent when talent doesn't have a system.

Comment 📌 below and I'll share the exact prompts I use for 200K+ views.
