B2B Clarity Wordsmith l Content & Copy for B2B SaaS l MarTech, HR, Edtech l Speak your clients' language

🌟Whether you wish to admit it or not, too much technical jargon ends up killing your marketing efforts.

Rather than showcase your “know-how”, it hides the real meaning behind your brand, and makes it harder to make your offer stand out. 

Strong brands don't need to ramble on. 

They speak using clear concise words. 
This makes it easy for people to understand what they do, what they care about, and how they can help. 

That's where I come in:

🖋️ I help you write clear, concise writing that connects with your audience, educates them, and compels them to take action. 
By weaving all your system's intricacies – tips, notes, warnings, exceptions, and platform variations – into clear and helpful content, I prevent it from becoming an overwhelming mess. 

🎓 My 6+ years of experience  crafting user guides at eMcREY, coupled with my previous roles as an educator, medical sales representative, and graduate research assistant, equip me with the skills needed to bridge complex information gaps.

Both teaching and medical sales require a high degree of adaptability and learning agility. As a teacher, I had to adjust my teaching methods to my individual student needs, and as a medical representative, and full-time "How-to" writer, I had to learn quickly, decipher complexity, and pay attention to detail. 

This translates to an ability to adapt my writing style and approach to your specific requirements. 

What I offer: 
 
🌐 Web copy 
📝 Short & Long-form blog posts
📚 How-to Guides
📂 Case studies
✍️ Translating, editing & proofreading

What clients say: 

🔥Yara took my unorganized thoughts and expertise and crafted impactful services with unwavering attention to detail.

🔥She simplified complex ideas into engaging content, exceeding expectations with her attention to detail and unwavering dedication.

If you want to stop losing clients due to complex jargon, DM  me your questions, or book an appointment. 

We'll discuss how I can help your brand connect with your audience and achieve your goals.

Many teams treat messaging and copywriting like they’re interchangeable they’re not.

Diane Wiredu, messaging expert and founder of Lion Words, explains the distinction clearly: 𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘱𝘺𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵. 

Here’s the breakdown:

🧱 Messaging
– Defines what you stand for
– Clarifies who you're speaking to
– Shapes the overall narrative and positioning

✍️ Copywriting
– Brings the messaging to life
– Adapts it for emails, websites, and ads
– Uses tone, structure, and storytelling to drive action

If your marketing isn’t converting, it may not be the copy.
It might be that the message behind it isn’t clear enough.

Before adjusting your words, revisit the strategy behind them.

Most brands don’t need bigger ideas. They need one idea people remember.

In categories where nearly everyone sounds alike, the easiest way to stand out is to repeat one message until your market connects it to you automatically.

A clear example is Slack.

Their message has been the same for years:
👉 “Where work happens.”

That line shows up everywhere:

 • Homepage

 • Product explanations

 • Ads

 • Customer stories

It creates a simple association. 
If you want a place where teams get work done, you think Slack.
They avoid long lists of features and stay focused on a single theme people can recall without effort.

For marketers and founders, this is a practical reminder.
You do not need to cover everything your product offers. 
You need one message that captures what you want to be known for, then reinforce it until it sticks.

 The Key Takeaway:
 Clarity and consistency beat volume every time.

What message do you want people to associate with your brand the moment they hear your name?

B2B SaaS Content/Copywriter | I help HR Tech & FinTech companies turn complex messaging into buyer - ready content | Case Studies, Guides & Blog Posts

One message remembered is worth more than ten ignored messages.

Good writing does not start with words.
It starts with decisions.

Before any content is created, you must know:
• The single idea you want to land
• The outcome you want the buyer to see
• The problem you solve
• The stage of the journey
• The pain the reader already feels

This is why writing without clarity creates chaos.
You do the work twice.
Teams disagree.
Content gets rewritten.

Content strategy is not about producing more.
It is about producing with intention.

You know that feeling when you’ve written the same article twice because the direction kept changing?

Welcome to the content loop.

1️⃣ They make you repeat it because they weren’t clear about direction.
2️⃣ Everyone has something to say.

 The designer wants it shorter.
 The product manager wants their “product” words.
 The sales manager says, “Make it simpler.”
 Someone else says: “Make it longer and more technical.”
 Yes — you’re fed up.

 So you create a content brief to get things right from the start…
 but no one follows it.

That’s when you realise —
the only way out is to ask the right questions. 👇

1. Purpose: Why are we writing this, and what do we want the reader to gain?
 2. Topic & Angle: What are we talking about, and from which perspective?
 3. Audience: Who are we speaking to, and what do they need or struggle with?
 4. Benefits: How will this piece actually help them?
 5. Action: What do we want them to do or think differently?
 6. Vision: In an ideal world, how will this be better or solved?
 7. Delivery: What’s the best format — blog, video, or infographic — and where will it live?
 8. Extras: Tone, style, and any specifics that matter.

That’s it.

 A clear set of questions beats a messy brief every time.

Finding yourself involves losing old places, old jobs, even opportunities that do not align with who you re becoming. 

In the process, you shock yourself as well as those around you. Outwardly you sometimes still think you re the same person, though inwardly you know something has shifted. 

It’s this shift that shocks you and you find yourself saying no to anything that does not align with your internal compass. 

It may not make sense to anyone, but somehow it makes sense to you. 

You refuse what looks good on paper and prioritize what feels right in your gut.

Your post just hit 10,000 impressions and 200 likes.

Your sales calendar? Still empty.
This is the engagement trap.

I interviewed 12 SaaS founders and marketing leaders to understand why content attracts reactions but not revenue.

Here's what they told me:

→ Viral posts bring visibility, but rarely bring buyers 
→ Motivational content collects applause, not interest 
→ "Fans engage publicly. Customers lurk silently"

The gap between viral content and booked meetings isn't about posting less.
It's about understanding what qualified buyers actually need to hear before they'll book a call.

I wrote about their insights on the mistakes that kill conversion and the messaging approaches that actually work.

The Engagement Trap: SaaS Content That Gets Likes but No Sales Calls

We often think, “More content = more leads.”
Actually, for B2B SaaS it’s often the opposite: 𝘓𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘴 𝘣𝘶𝘺𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘧𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳.

Here’s the research:
• 76% of B2B marketers say content marketing helped generate demand/leads in the past year. (theinsightcollective.com) 

• Yet, decision-makers still consume on average just 3–5 pieces of content before engaging. ( The CMO) 

So the volume is high, but the quantity that matters is small, targeted, clear.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀:

When you publish dozens of long articles, webinars, and asset downloads without a clear message, your buyer gets stuck. They read, skim, get uncertain, and drop-off. 

When you instead publish fewer pieces, each with a clear value proposition, a simple message, and a direct path to next step, the buyer says: “Ah, I get it.” 

𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁:
By using less content and making each piece sharper you speed up the funnel, reduce wasted effort, and increase conversions.

Is your white paper doing more harm than good?

Gordon Graham analysed what he calls the worst white paper ever and found eight major practices that collapse credibility:

 • Boring or misleading title : promises one thing, delivers another
 • Wrong length : too short (or too long) to make an argument
 • Poor design or typography : dense layout, hard to read
 • Missing or poor illustrations : visuals absent when expected
 • Too much hype and too little proof : big claims, zero data
 • Sales pitch in disguise : reads like a brochure, not an insight
 • Weak flow of ideas : lacks logical thread or narrative
 • Unprofessional writing : jargon, fluff and unclear tone

Avoiding these mistakes puts your white paper in the top half of performance. 

A truly effective paper focuses on the buyer problem, follows structure, is readable and backed by proof.

Which of these eight practices will you fix first in your next white paper?

Is your white paper doing more harm than good?

𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴.

Wynter's data found that when messaging broke down, marketing leaders pointed to the same themes again and again.

𝟭. 𝗕𝘂𝘇𝘇𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 (𝟭𝟴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
Internal or trending phrases slip into public messaging.
If customers need to translate a term, the message fails.

𝟮. 𝗢𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘆𝗻𝗰 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 (𝟭𝟰 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
Teams focus on features instead of the problem.
Buyers need clarity on the pain before they care about how the product works.

𝟯. 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 (𝟭𝟰 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
The product evolves, but the story does not.
Important capabilities stay hidden, pages fall out of sync, and buyers lose the thread.

Meanwhile, which of these three mistakes shows up most in your category?

Even a brilliant strategy will fail if your teams are not perfectly aligned behind it.

Strong alignment between sales and marketing is more than a nice-to-have, it drives revenue. Organizations with tight alignment achieve up to 208% higher marketing-sourced revenue compared with those misaligned. (𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘦: /𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘢𝘥𝘰.𝘪𝘰) 

Yet many companies stumble because their messages diverge: the website promises X, sales outreach says Y, and case studies whisper Z. 

𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘉2𝘉 𝘚𝘢𝘢𝘚 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘤𝘪𝘳𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘴. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘴. 

-> The immediate effect: clear-er content, quicker decision cycles, more trust.

Your value proposition should answer this: 
“𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘩𝘰𝘮, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘶𝘴?” 

Universal shared language across teams makes that possible.
Alignment is not simply about workflow. 
It is the bedrock for a clear and consistent message to your market.

𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗱.

In markets filled with look-alike products, “different” isn’t a gamble.
It’s the only route to being remembered.

Yet most companies stay generic.
According to Wynter.com, here’s why:

𝟭. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 (𝟯𝟲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
“Buyers want familiar choices, so let’s not rock the boat.”
This assumption pushes teams toward safe, forgettable messaging.

𝟮. 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝟮𝟲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
When products feel similar, teams rely on polished lines that sound good but say little.
This is exactly when voice becomes the separator.

𝟯. 𝗖𝗼𝗽𝘆𝗰𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝗿 (𝟮𝟬 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
Everyone monitors competitors, so the category repeats the same language again and again.

𝟰. 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 (𝟭𝟴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁)
Brand is treated like design updates instead of a shared direction.
Without a strong center, every team writes its own version of the story.

Which of these four patterns do you see most often?

CEO @ Grow Solo I help the C-suite turn industry expertise into predictable pipeline

Most founders are stuck in what I call "The Activity Trap".

They’re on LinkedIn every day:

DMing.
Posting.
Commenting.

Trying to be everywhere, still not getting consistent clients.

They’ve been told “show up and it’ll work.” But they’re doing everything and nothing’s compounding.

Instead of building leverage, they’re trapped in a cycle of rented results, ghostwritten content, and cold DMs that never convert.

Eventually they burn out:

- No time to sell
- No energy to market
- No leverage to scale unless they outsource again and hope it works

When you stop feeding the machine, the pipeline dies.

There’s a better way.

We install your Leverage Engine — a Trust-Led Outbound system powered by AI that turns LinkedIn into a client acquisition channel you own.

Everything runs in under 30 minutes a day.

With Atticus, we’ve helped 75+ B2B founders, consultants and experts:

→ Escape the Activity Trap
→ Scale without headcount
→ Drive 5–10 new deals per month from LinkedIn

Over $120M in pipeline booked without ghostwriters, appointment setters, or agency retainers.

Here’s how it works:

1. Attract

We install an AI content agent trained on your voice and expertise, built from 70+ top performers.
No ghostwriters. You own the engine.

2. Convert

A behind-the-scenes system moves prospects from cold to calendar.
By the time they book, they already trust you.

3. Activate

We build and install the full system in 60 days, fully trained, operational, and ready to scale inside your business.

Real wins from the system:

V, agency owner → 5–8 qualified opportunities/month + Forbes feature + six figures closed

B, M&A founder → $750K in sales-qualified pipeline

J, executive coach → 62 calls + $144K pipeline + price increase from $33K to $44K

J, startup consultant → 20 qualified calls in 20 days + $150K pipeline

B, career coach → 12 qualified leads in 8 days post-activation

This is for founders ready to shift from activity-trapped operators to leveraged dealmakers — where every post and DM builds trust, not just traffic.

Want your own AI Demand Engine installed?

Send me a message with “AI” and I’ll walk you through how it works and exactly what it would look like inside your business.

Founder

We help executives to build and monetize their brand on linkedin by scaling your content and turning it into leads, authority and thought leadership.

How?

Engagement + DM flows = Qualified meetings. 

Done with you. Done for you.

A few crazy things breaking past $50k profit months as a leveraged operator allowed me to do:

- Drive my entire client acquisition funnel on LinkedIn in less than 30 mins a day

- Take afternoons slow again. I finish most days at 3pm because our offers are mostly async delivery (we get paid for our minds and not our time).

- Worked from Colombia for 2 years without the business collapsing every time I travelled.

- Take 4 weeks of holidays this year fully offline (with only a little guilt).

- Be more present with my girl and pup instead of scrolling LinkedIn on the sofa.

- Generate a living income from just my investments > firmly on route to financial freedom.

- Reinvest heavily back into my own skills — I spent $30,000 in my training across mindset + sales this year.

- Perhaps my favorite of all… I finally flew my girl from Colombia to London last year. And this year we will go again to enjoy Christmas with my family (peep the picture of her smile man!).

I built this thing with just my laptop, LinkedIn and AI.

Now it’s put me in a position where I can support myself and the lives of those I love.

That’s what being a leveraged operator is all about.

Get leverage in the places that matter less.

And get more time with the people who matter most.

If you’re still deep in the grind of trying to hit above the $20k profit plateau…
Keep going.

A few simple changes could get you everything you’ve ever wanted.

PS: If you want to add $50k–$100k profit months with 90%+ margins using just LinkedIn, I’m hosting a LinkedIn client acquisition masterclass on the 12th. Smash this link to join biz owners gaining an unfair advantage in 2026 with AI: https://lnkd.in/gGNvBEfB

CEO @ Atticus | AI sales systems for founders | 5–10 deals/month from LinkedIn in <​30 mins/day I $125M+ pipeline generated for 100+ founders

March 2022: I hit 600,000 impressions in 60 days. Guess how much that added to my revenue?...

Exactly $0.

I posted daily.
DM’d like crazy.
My calendar stayed empty.

Back in March 2022, when I went all-in on my business, I had the metrics… not the money:

• 60 posts in 60 days
• 600,000 impressions
• 40 cold DMs per week

And still? Maybe 1 call a week.

That’s when I stopped chasing activity and started building leverage.

Here’s the truth most founders stuck at $20k per month profit don’t want to admit:

Consistency without leverage does not scale growth. It scales exhaustion.

I was doing everything LinkedIn “experts” said to do.

But nothing was translating into predictable deal flow.

So I audited a week of work and realized about 70 percent of my time was non-revenue.

Every morning felt like Day 1.
Staring at LinkedIn.
Anxiety bubbling up.

 “Why is everyone else winning but me?”

 “Another competitor posts a $50k month. Must be nice.”

I didn’t have a content problem.
I had a leverage problem.

Over the next 3 years, I rebuilt my entire client acquisition system around infrastructure, not effort:

- Identified the Rainmaker client persona (the one person I knew who was willing and able to afford me).

- Built an indoctrination strategy for my content—I identified the key ideas my audience needed to believe to buy from me.

- Created an AI content agent in my voice and trained on my brain. I was no longer spending an hour a day writing posts. I could create a week of content in 30 minutes. No AI slop because it’s trained on my library of content.

- Built a team of AI outbound agents that allowed us to scale our outreach to people in our sphere of influence from content and profile views.

Before → After:

- 4 to 8 calls per month → 35 to 50 a month
- $10k profit → $20k to $50k per month
- $270k closed in last 4 months

Try this for 7 days:

 Run an Activity Audit and highlight your activity traps.

- Log everything in 15‑minute blocks
- Tag each block R (revenue‑producing) or NR (non‑revenue)
- Circle your top 3 NR time sinks
- Kill / Automate / Batch anything NR
- Block 1 hour in your calendar for December 12 to join 100 founders building their own AI Demand Engine with LinkedIn on my webinar.

If you’re stuck in the trap, it might be time for a change.

I thought LinkedIn Thought Leadership Ads were “just brand.” I was wrong. They’re a sales-meeting machine if you structure them right. I spent $3,000 on ads, $1,000 on consulting, and 100 hours of study so you don’t have to. Here are 3 things we did to get our ads delivering leads in 60 days:

BACKGROUND

I sat in a café in Medellín with my father.

Me: “My LinkedIn reach is down 80%, feels like the end of the party.”

Him: “You always knew it wouldn’t last forever.”

Me: “I’m going to need an ad budget to fill the gap.”

Up to that point, I’d only dabbled with LinkedIn TLAs. Decent brand lift, but no leads. So over the last 60 days, I worked with Tom Casoo and learned a killer approach.

5 things that helped me drive meetings from TLAs

1) Having a founder-led brand helps.

Our content already hits the right eyes 300k–500k monthly reach so any spend pours gasoline on what’s circulating. Higher like counts also improve CTR and trust.

2) Tight targeting = better results.

I used to target every startup in the U.S. But our offer is specific: service business owners under $5M with a tech or service arm. Focusing on this ~2M TAM finally brought the right people in.

3) Having the right strategy.

 I stopped boosting random posts and split ads into:
 • Top + middle of funnel
 • Bottom of funnel

Every 2 weeks, I added top-performing posts to TOF/MOF and ran until we hit 1,000+ accounts reached. That became our retargeting pool. CPM was ~$30.

Then I fed that audience into BOF ads... our highest-converting client wins and framework posts. I track which posts cause Calendly bookings and spend more on those.

Pro tip: Add a direct CTA with your Calendly link or tell people to comment “GROW.” It meaningfully increased attribution.

Fitting engagements into our Atticus AI sales system.

We scrape likes, comments, and profile views, score them, and have our AI agent DM high-fit prospects with personalized context.

Adding ads multiplies your organic footprint. It’s just another way to show up in front of buyers... paid or not.

Stuck at $20K/month? I’m hosting a FREE LinkedIn Client Aquisition Masterclass on the 12th of December (usually $1,000 in consulting fees). 

I’ll show you how to build your own AI sales system to add another $50k a month using LinkedIn.

Repost from @jimpapi

Every B2B founder wants to generate qualified sales calls on LinkedIn. 

But 95% have no idea where to start. Here are 5 outbound strategies that helped me generate over $125,000,000 in pipeline across 100+ companies (steal them):

1) Content-led outbound

This is where 99% of your hottest leads hide. If someone engages with your content, they already know who you are. Your cover photo acts as a sales billboard when done right.

Start conversations with this flow: 

Open-ended question > What they have tried > Curiosity gap > Pull to Zoom.

Spend 30 minutes a day on this and you will book an extra 5 to 10 calls a week.

2) Profile views and followers

Check profile views and net new followers (your followers list is arranged by who followed last) daily. When your ICP shows up, reach out and start a conversation using the same framework.

3) Messaging with intent

Cold outbound fails because it is unexpected and unwanted. Use an AI SDR to build lists based on intent events like funding rounds, job changes, new hires or key announcements.

Not all intent works for every industry. Ask what your ICP cares most about. For example, funded companies care more about ramp time than unfunded ones. Context matters.

4) The 800 open InMail hack

Every LinkedIn account has 800 extra free InMails on Sales Navigator. Tools with “open InMail campaigns” help you find these accounts fast. You can also check manually inside Sales Navigator.

5) Scaling outbound with multiple LinkedIn accounts

Get your team on Sales Navigator and use sales automation to multiply outbound across multiple open InMail licences. This loop doubles our monthly LinkedIn meetings.

Only do this once you have message market fit with at least a 20 percent response rate. Otherwise you will burn your total addressable market.
I learned all of this from running outbound for 100+ founders. 

If you want the exact AI outbound flow that books us 30 to 50 sales qualified calls a month in less than 30 minutes a day, join my free LinkedIn masterclass here: https://lnkd.in/gGNvBEfB
