If you're an attorney, the people you want to talk to—potential clients, referral sources, and talent—are all on this platform. 

And while your traditional marketing channels are intensely competitive, the feeds of the people you want to reach on LinkedIn are ripe for the picking. 

We're still early in the content creation game on this platform, which has more than a billion users worldwide and ~200 million in the United States. 

Very few attorneys or law firms have even made an effort to stand out.

CONTENDER helps attorneys produce LinkedIn content that resonates with the people you want to reach, so they can Know, Like, and Trust you.

I know it's a goofy thing to say...
But LinkedIn changed my life. 

I ignored the platform through my 12 years as a practicing attorney. 

It was only after I left the practice in late 2021 that I started paying more attention to the platform. 

Watching what folks like Darren McKee and Robb Gilbear were doing, I realized LinkedIn wasn't what I thought it was...

The most boring social media network on the planet. 
The world's biggest online bulletin board. 
The place to stash my digital resume. 

I started to see LinkedIn as a place to: 
• express myself genuinely 
• meet interesting people 
• create opportunities. 

I didn't have my own business then. That came later. 

What set me on that trajectory was recognizing that I'd learned LinkedIn the wrong way. 

And if I approached this platform differently, I could get different results. 

LinkedIn empowered me to build CONTENDER, a business that employs 6 full-time people. 
We're going to break 7 figures in revenue this year. 
And we're just getting warmed up. 

I told the fuller story of how LinkedIn changed my life (and it's potential to change yours) in the first video on my new YouTube channel.

Has LinkedIn changed your life (yet)?

“The Yoda of LinkedIn” for Lawyers | Helping you go from invisible to unforgettable out here.

There has never been a better time to start posting on LinkedIn than right now. 

If that strikes you as the self-serving talk of a guy who sells LinkedIn stuff, fair enough. 

But I truly believe that. 
Here’s why. 

People love lamenting:
• How reach has dropped. 
• How terrible the algorithm is.
• How hard it is to get engagement. 

They’re almost always saying some version of—

My posts are not getting enough attention. 

That’s understandable. Indeed, organic reach appears down in a ton of circumstances. 

But organic reach is not actually the point. 

Nobody pays the rent with organic reach. 
Nobody buys a truck with likes and comments. 
Nobody covers their kids’ tuition with impressions. 

We all want Linky to shower us with organic reach. 
But reach is not the real goal. 

What we’re really after out here…

Is opportunities. 

New clients. 
The next hire. 
More customers. 
The next job offer.
More awareness that you’re the go-to expert in your domain and market. 

If I offered you 1 million impressions or 1 new client, which are you taking? 

I’m taking the client every time. 

And I don’t actually NEED more impressions to land more clients. 

What I can use is MORE people starting to pay attention to LinkedIn for the fist time. 

The more people who do that, the harder it might be to get organic reach. 

But that’s fine. Because it also means there are more people plugged into the network. 

Each of those people is another source of potential opportunities. 

This is why I’m not worried about the drop in reach. 
It’s corresponding with the LinkedIn network getting stronger. 

And if you’re consistently depositing your energy into this network, you’re building up your social capital here. 

That social capital has never been more valuable than it is today. 
And I’ll bet it all that social capital here will be more valuable a year from now than it is today.

That’s why I’ve never been as bullish on LinkedIn as I am right now. 

How about you?

I've got 12 spots left for my LinkedIn Foundations Workshop next Friday, Feb 27th. 

You can find the info here: 
https://lnkd.in/eKD9dcyn

A new client has seen 128,485 impressions from her first 4 posts. My favorite part about this—

I’ve had very little to do with her fast start. 

Over the last 6 months, I've spent a lot more of my time coaching people on LinkedIn. Both clients and my team. 

And nobody has gotten more of that coaching attention than Jess Sargus. 

When Jess joined us in September, she had never written a post for somebody else. 

Our corest of core values at CONTENDER is—

We are all players. 

Everybody here wants the ball.
Everybody wants to make good things happen when we get the ball. 

And we understand that the key to delivering when we get the ball is to prepare. 

Jess is a consummate player. 

Humble. Capable. Driven. 

In less than 6 months, she has gone from 
• Beginner to 
• Very good at what she does. 

It's been awesome to see. 

And for this client specifically, Jess squared these posts up well by: 
• listening to our client sharing stories and opinions she really cares about; 
• shaping them into aerodynamic posts; and 
• crafting detailed, evocative hooks. 

If you're working on developing your skills out here as a writer, creator, and digital networker—

Focus on getting reps.
The results will take care of themselves.

Chief Executive Officer

Helping busy professionals build generational wealth and retire comfortably through passively investing in real estate.

AI just gave real estate investors a 1 million word memory.

That's not a typo.

One conversation. One million words of context.

Here's what that means for your capital raise.

Upload every OM, every financial model, every LP email, and every market report into a single AI conversation.

Then ask it anything.

"What objections came up most across my last 50 LP calls?" Answered in 30 seconds.

"Build a custom pitch for an LP who invests in Phoenix multifamily with $2M liquid." Done in 2 minutes.

"Compare my last 3 deals side by side and write the investor update." Done before your coffee gets cold.

Before this update, AI held 150,000 words. Enough for a few documents. Not enough for a real operation.

Now it holds your entire deal room. Every data point. All cross-referenced instantly.

And the second shift is even bigger.

AI doesn't just answer questions anymore. It executes. Builds documents. Runs research. Multiple agents working in parallel on different tasks.

We went from "AI helps you think" to "AI does the job."

→ LP research: 4 hours → 12 minutes
→ Quarterly updates: all weekend → 15 minutes
→ Outreach personalization: impossible at scale → fully automated

Most real estate investors have no idea this happened.

DM me "update" and I'll show you how to set this up for your raise.

Systems and Operations Expert for CRE Professionals | $30M+ Raised | 60+ Operators | Co-Founder @ CRE Digital

I run a marketing agency. Here's why I'm telling you the truth about AI.

Most agencies won't tell you this. I will — because it's how we stay ahead.

An AI tool now does in 11 minutes what used to take a full team a week.

I know because I built the systems that proved it.

Here's what AI replaces tomorrow:

1. Social media content
One voice memo → 5 LinkedIn posts, a newsletter intro, and 3 email subject lines. Written in your voice. Not a template.

2. Investor outreach emails
Paste 10 LP profiles. Get 10 custom first-touch emails referencing their actual portfolio, recent deals, and investment thesis.

3. Market research briefs
Ask for a multifamily market update in Phoenix. Get a full brief with data, comps, and talking points in 4 minutes.

4. Quarterly investor updates
Upload your financials and property report. Full draft in 90 seconds. Your voice. Real numbers.

5. CRM follow-ups
Upload your contact list. AI scores every investor by engagement and writes a personalized follow-up for each one.

Here's what AI does NOT replace:

→ Relationships
→ Judgment on which deals to pursue
→ The handshake at closing
→ Trust built over years

The agencies that win are the ones building these tools into their clients' workflows. That's what we do at CRE Digital.

What's the first thing you'd automate? Drop it below.

Systems and Operations Expert for CRE Professionals | $50M+ Raised | 60+ Operators | Co-Founder @ CRE Digital

6 months ago I was burning out running a marketing agency with 8 clients.

Working 70-hour weeks. Writing every post manually. Sending every email one by one. Building every report from scratch.

I loved the work. I hated the ceiling.

Then I went all-in on Claude AI. Not as a gimmick. As infrastructure.

Here's what changed:

Month 1: Replaced my content writing process. 5 posts per client went from 6 hours to 45 minutes.

Month 2: Built an AI outreach system. Personalized investor emails at scale. My clients' response rates doubled.

Month 3: Automated investor updates, meeting prep, and CRM scoring. Freed up 20+ hours per week.

Month 4: Started using those 20 hours to actually grow the business instead of just running it.

Month 5: Built custom AI skills for each client's specific workflow. Stuff that used to take a week now takes an afternoon.

Today: Same team. Fraction of the hours. Grossly more efficient at everything we do.

I didn't get lucky. I didn't find a shortcut. I rebuilt every system in my business around AI.

The tools are available to everyone. The gap is who's willing to rebuild their process from scratch.

Most business owners are still trading time for output. AI lets you buy back your time.

What's one process in your business that's eating all your hours? Tell me below and I'll tell you exactly how to automate it.

A real estate investor told me last week he's "waiting to see how AI plays out."

He's raising his third fund. Manually. The same way he raised the first two.

Cold calls. Personal emails. Conference handshakes. One LP at a time.

His competitor down the street just raised $8M in 60 days.

Same market. Same asset class. Smaller track record.

The difference wasn't the deal. It was the system.

His competitor had:

→ 2,000 qualified LP prospects loaded into sequences
→ Personalized outreach hitting inboxes at 6am every Tuesday
→ A 52-week nurture drip educating cold leads into warm investors
→ AI-generated quarterly updates keeping 340 existing LPs engaged
→ Content publishing 5x/week positioning him as the market authority

The "wait and see" investor is still sending the same pitch deck to 40 people.

This isn't about early adoption anymore. We're past that.

This is about whether you're building a capital raising machine or running a capital raising hobby.

The investors who built systems 12 months ago are on their second and third raise. The ones who waited are still grinding through their first.

The gap isn't closing. It's accelerating.

Which side do you want to be on in 12 months? Drop "machine" and I'll show you where to start.

$89/month. 4 tools. 500 LP touches per month on autopilot.

Most real estate investors reach 10-15 LPs per week manually.

One email at a time.
One follow-up at a time.
One "let me circle back" at a time.

That math doesn't work when you're trying to raise $5M+.

Here's the stack running right now for our clients.

Apollo scrapes LinkedIn for accredited investors matching your criteria. 2,000 prospects in 20 minutes. $49/month.

An AI writing layer analyzes each prospect and writes a personalized first-touch email. Not a template with a name swapped in. A real message referencing their actual portfolio. $20/month.

A sequencing engine runs a 5-touch drip over 21 days. Each follow-up adapts based on opens, clicks, and replies. Built into Apollo.

Publer schedules LinkedIn content that warms up prospects before the cold email hits. They see your name before you're in their inbox. $12/month.

Old way: VA + agency + CRM = $4-8K/month.
New way: $89/month. Same output. Better personalization.

The investors raising the most capital right now aren't working harder.

They built a system and let it run.

DM me if you want to build this in your company.

I recorded a 10-minute voice memo on my phone last Tuesday.

It turned into 2 weeks of content.

Not edited transcripts.
Not rough drafts.
Polished, ready-to-post content in my exact voice.

Here's the workflow:

→ Record while driving
→ Upload the transcript to Claude
→ Get 5 LinkedIn posts, a newsletter intro, and 3 email subject lines

Total time from voice memo to finished content: 14 minutes.

The recording was about a deal we just closed. One story. One experience. One conversation with myself in the car.

Claude pulled out the insights, structured them into frameworks, and matched my writing style.

Most real estate investors think content takes hours.

It doesn't.

It takes one voice memo and the right system.

DM me if you want to build this in your company.

Your deal is not why LPs aren't investing.

I've seen syndicators with incredible deals — 18% IRR, strong markets, proven operators — struggle to fill a raise.

Then I've seen mediocre deals close in 3 weeks.

The difference is never the deal. It's the system behind the deal.

The guys closing fast have:

→ 500+ warm LP contacts getting weekly value
→ Personalized outreach based on each investor's portfolio
→ Automated nurture sequences running 52 weeks a year
→ Objection responses pre-built before the first call
→ Follow-up triggers based on email opens and clicks

The guys struggling have a great pitch deck and a spreadsheet of 40 contacts they email manually.

One is a machine. The other is hope.

I've helped 60+ syndicators build the machine version. The pattern is always the same.

Before: 6 months to raise $3M with constant manual hustle.
After: 8 weeks to raise $5M with systems doing 80% of the work.

The deal gets investors interested. The system gets them across the finish line.

If your pipeline is slow, don't change the deal. Change the infrastructure around it.

Which part of your raise is still manual? Drop it below — I'll tell you how to automate it.

Most CRE investors use AI to write emails.

The smart ones use it to underwrite 10 deals before breakfast.

Same tool. Completely different ROI.

It's not about having AI. It's about knowing where to point it.

AI can now analyze a 200-page OM in under 90 seconds.

That used to take your analyst an entire weekend.

The firms using this aren't smarter. They just see more deals faster.

Speed is the new edge in CRE.

A syndicator told me he uses AI to write his LP updates now.

Not to replace his voice. To draft the first version in 3 minutes instead of 3 hours.

He reinvests that time into actual LP conversations.

That's the play.

AI won't replace real estate investors.

But investors using AI will replace those who don't.

The gap is already showing up in deal flow, raise speed, and LP retention.

12 months from now it won't be close.
