For thinkers, for seekers, for anyone feeling the tension of being human in an over-automated world. For those who are tired of noise, shortcuts, and of being spoon-fed content that demands nothing of them…

If you are tired of all the clickbait.
I offer you Thinkbait.

Beyond better content, Thinkbait is a rebellion, a call to think deeper, write truer, and create with intention at a time when speed is worshipped above substance. It’s my answer to a cultural moment that prizes automation over imagination, and optimisation over originality.

Creating the Thinkbait way means choosing depth over dopamine. It means writing that stays with your reader long after they scroll further, and language that refuses to flatten itself for the algorithm.

My work explores what it means to stay human in a system increasingly built to replace human nuance. I write about the philosophical implications of AI, the erosion of creative integrity, and the slow extinction of thought in an age obsessed with efficiency.

I am a Human Intelligence Defender and AI Commentator, speaking on the future of creativity, the ethics of automation, and the irreplaceable intelligence of the human mind.

With over seven years of experience working with global SaaS, B2B, and tech founders, from Harvard and MIT researchers to reality TV personalities, I’ve helped leaders build audiences that think, feel, and follow. My agency, Vampire Digital, is positioned as a deliberate resistance to the AI-content flood: a home for human writing that converts through connection.

Before founding Vampire Digital, I spent twelve years in corporate communications and began my career as a journalist, writing investigative pieces and cultural commentary that demanded rigour, and truth-telling — qualities that now underpin every story my team and I craft for clients.

If you’re seeking a keynote speaker, AI ethics panellist, or media voice who can translate the human condition into intelligent conversation, I’d love to collaborate. As a champion of human thought and creativity, I’m not afraid of voicing my stance, even if that means going against the grain.

And if you’re a founder, investor, or thought leader ready to break out of the content hamster wheel and create something extraordinary, my team and I can help you:

❗️ Command attention in your industry 
❗️ Attract high-value clients while you focus on your business 
❗️ Position yourself as the undisputed authority in your field

Let’s build something that outlives the algorithm.

I never understood why getting these right is so hard for you native English speakers, so here you go. 

Just ask the Hungarian with English as her third language. 

If I sound like a snob, I may have earned it. 😘😂

Signed,
The Hungarian who speaks better English than your autocorrect.


📌 Edited to add: the dyslexic amongst you are naturally excused for this abhorrent behaviour.

While I do take my grammar seriously, this fun Sunday post was done in jest - not with the intention of hurting anyone's feelings whose grammar may not always be impeccable. I'm not without fault, that's for sure.

Somewhere between Leeds and Sheffield, I left one of 10 special copies of Thinkbait on a train.

Signed, sealed, and expectantly waiting to be found.

No algorithm chose its reader this time… Chance did.

This is how The Thinkbait Trail begins.

A breadcrumb experiment in attention, one book at a time.

Let’s see how going analog mixes with the digital. 

Will you be the one finding your very own THINKBAIT?

No alternative text description for this image

At 18, I went undercover in a brothel.

Not your average teenage rite of passage.

But speaking with some of those trafficked girls and then writing up that story got me a scholarship to one of Hungary’s top universities.

And more importantly, it taught me something no textbook ever could:
If you follow the crowd, you disappear.

That same mindset landed me my first journalism job, my first TV gig, and now... It’s what makes clients say things like:

“Got my signed contract from your lead this morning!! The first of many I'm sure... superb work team 👏”

“We’re about to close our first deal off the back of your work worth around £15k.”

That’s the power of writing the Thinkbait™️ way.

Not clickbait.
Not regurgitated, recycled, repurposed-for-the-hundredth-time fluff.
But work that stops people mid-scroll. Work that lands.

You don't need to be louder.
Thinkbait content is about being sharper. More real. More memorable. More you.

I’m opening the doors to just two new clients.

If you’ve been meaning to up your content game, build a brand that commands attention, and actually close deals - this is your moment.

Let’s talk... in my DMs.



----
💬 Context for the brothel story (yes, really):

I was 18.
I’d applied for a competitive journalism & English double degree scholarship and made it to the final shortlist. For the last round, they asked each of us to write a hard-hitting exposé.

Most people chose school lunches or youth unemployment.

I… snuck into a Hungarian brothel.

I interviewed the women working there, wrote about the conditions, and smuggled the whole thing into the editors the next day.

They gave me the scholarship.
And a job.

I wasn't after sensationalism.... but I wanted to do what no one else dared to do. 

And that’s stayed with me ever since.
Being different is better than being better.

AI won’t save your LinkedIn reach.

The solution might surprise you...

Being human is the answer!
Shocking concept, I know.

But the algorithm still prefers creators who move, speak, engage and show an actual pulse.

Today at 2pm GMT, I’m taking a small group through what really drives visibility on this platform, and why posting more content is the least important part.

If you want your posts to be seen by actual humans, preferably your ideal clients (not bots, not your mum, not your cat), come join us.

Limited seats left.

OH, and if you register, you're in for the raffle to win a signed copy of my limited edition book, THINKBAIT!

Be there, or forever hold your guru growth hacks!

EDIT: you have missed this one, but I'm running another one on 1st December.

That peer-reviewed study from MIT about your brain rotting on ChatGPT is completely wrong.

I know this because I use it all the time, and I’ve 666X’d my output of utter nonsense, and I feel smarter than most of you.

In fact, you too can achieve peak nonsense productivity by buying my exclusive prompt pack, guaranteed to help you post 17 AI-generated thoughts (the leadershipy kind) before breakfast. 

We all know, anecdotal evidence and my personal opinion pulled from the warm depths of my backside are far more trustworthy than peer-reviewed research done by actual scientists.

Comment ‘NONSENSE’ if you want to make money while you sleep, bro.

…

If you’re exhausted by that exact brand of AI-hype nonsense… 

The “steal my three hacks that’ll make you rich overnight” posts, the ghostwritten guru wisdom, the “authentic” carousels written by seven interns and a 50 shades of beige chatbot… then it’s time for something else.

🧠 The Thinkbait Sessions are back. 🧠

Live on Zoom, twice a month.
Low cost.
No filler talk.
No templates.
No upsell in the outro.

Just the exact strategies I use with clients who prefer results over recycled marketing-bro gospel.

What we’ll cover:

❗️Building a relevant audience that cares, not just one that scrolls past
❗️Earning trust before chasing meaningless follower counts
❗️Writing with your unmistakably human voice, not AI with ADHD and delusions of grandeur
❗️Turning attention into clients who want to work with you without turning into a parody of yourself

First live session:

Wednesday 19 November 2025
2:00–3:00 p.m. GMT

Other time zones:

• 9:00–10:00 a.m. ET
• 8:00–9:00 a.m. CT
• 6:00–7:00 a.m. PT
• 3:00–4:00 p.m. CEST
• 4:00–5:00 p.m. EEST

💸 Investment: £50 GBP (~$65 USD)

AND…
Attend and you’ll be entered into a raffle to win a special-edition, hand-signed copy of my book, Thinkbait.

Limited run. High ink. Original content.
No platitudes. No templates. No mercy.

Come for the strategy.
Stay for the relief of never having to touch an ex-Twitterati hustle-broligarch’s template ever again.

📌 Limited to 20 seats only, so we have time for everyone’s questions!

See you live, or forever hold your growth hacks.

We’ve been conditioned to value immediacy.

We want the post that goes viral, the spike of engagement, endless likes and reposts.
But short attention isn’t proof of relevance or authority. It’s only proof of appetite.

Compound content, the sort of content people revisit, quote, and even steal from… this is what builds authority.

The returns are slow, but they are cumulative.

Reputation is simply the interest you earn on consistency.

Patience, it turns out, is a better algorithm than any we have yet invented.

How do you manufacture applause?

Easy.
You tell people when to clap.
You give them a script.
And you make them feel like they’re part of something.

That’s the whole game … online and off.

Last week, at the Long Haul Leader Summit in Cambridge (hosted by the brilliant Chris Ducker ), I decided to test this theory with a little social experiment.

I told the audience about my father — a Transylvanian butcher who has no idea what I actually do. When I explain that I run a ghostwriting and content agency, he just blinks and asks, “So… you write for the internet?”
“Yes, Dad.”
“Are you famous then?”
“Not quite.”

Cue disappointment. Because, in his mind, if I don’t have a Wikipedia page, he’s failed as a father.

So I turned to the audience and said, “Today, I’d like your help to make my father proud.”

We were going to make me look internet famous.

I asked Chris to re-announce me WrestleMania-style.
I asked the crowd for standing ovations, name-chanting, wolf whistles, fainting … full-blown chaos.

They delivered beautifully!
And for a few minutes, I felt like a famous rockstar. 😂


—-

What you see online isn’t always what it seems. 

Some people have simply mastered the art of manufacturing attention… all the right words, the lighting, the applause, the illusion of scale. 

AI will only accelerate that noise. 

But the ones who’ll stand out will be those who are the most human. 
The ones who still write, speak, and show up without all the manufactured choreography.

Literature raised me gently, then taught me how to kill with a well-placed sentence.

What are you reading this weekend?

YOU + ME
Tomorrow...
I am looking for five participants. Are you in?

EDIT: you have missed this one, but I'm running another one on 1st December.
