Grown several tech companies from 0 to 8 figures I Paid Social Growth Marketer I I deconstruct paid marketing so you can level up.

After 5 years in sales, I moved to marketing.

Frankly, I love it. I learned marketing by starting 2 startups and side hustles. 

Then, I found my Ikagai: Growth Marketing. I became Head of Growth at Userpilot (Grew it to 7-figures and beyond). And then, I moved to become an advisor.

Now, I have grown several tech/SaaS companies from 0 to 8 figures. Currently, I lead paid social and growth initiatives at 3 different D2C tech companies.

Growth Marketing Consultant

Providing growth marketing consultancy and advisory services with:

- Paid Social
- Paid Search
- Content Marketing & SEO
- Conversion Rate Optimization

Invested in: Maven, Gumroad, Vuvei Ventures, Synthesis, Userpilot, Breshna and more.

Current clients: MakerKids and Prequel.

Everyone's calling AI-generated content "slop."

Meanwhile, one of my clients just spent $80K on a Pixar-style AI ad. Still running. Still profitable.

This client manages $5M in monthly ad spend. Highly competitive market. 
Sophisticated audience. They can't afford to waste budget on content that doesn't convert.

Yet this AI-generated ad is outperforming their traditional UGC.

Here's why it works: the Pixar aesthetic stops the scroll. 

People don't see it as an ad. They see it as content. That's the whole game.

We've turned this into our template. We're now creating more AI ads following the exact same structure.

My take? AI slop isn't the problem. Bad creative is. When you understand what makes people stop and watch, the tool doesn't matter.

I built a complete workflow showing how we create these, plus real ad examples that spent $80K+.

Like this post and comment "AI slop" and I'll send it to you.

Founder @ Linked Revenue | Sharing insights to help Executives and Sales Professionals generate more revenue from LinkedIn

We work with executives who’ve built impressive networks, and help them turn those relationships into revenue.

At Linked Revenue, we specialize in relationship-based selling. Everything we do is rooted in your voice, your network, and your goals.

We co-create content that feels natural to you, research where your connections can open doors, and send personalized outreach that leads to real conversations.

You don’t need to spend hours on LinkedIn. We keep you accountable to a process that works, while making sure your authentic voice shows up where it matters most.

We handle the content, posting, outreach, and engagement, so you stay focused on what you do best while still generating consistent deal flow.

We have helped our clients generate over $10M in revenue from LinkedIn. 

A little bit about me:

- I have a toddler son and baby daughter who are both the best and exhausting
- I was drafted by the Washington Nationals out of high school but got the yips in college 
- I am a certified leadership coach
- I have been to all 50 states
- I am lucky to have an amazing wife who is the rock for our family

Recent Wins:

✅ Helped the Founder & CEO of a Future of Work SaaS company land enterprise deals and secure Series B funding by optimizing his LinkedIn presence and content strategy.

✅ Drove a 300% increase in inbound opportunities for a NYT best-selling author and keynote speaker, leading to more high-value speaking engagements and book sales.

✅ Scaled the LinkedIn presence of a Chief Revenue Officer at a high-growth AI company, directly contributing to a 7-figure pipeline through strategic content and network engagement.

✅ Partnered with 5 top sales professionals in employee benefits to establish them as thought leaders, leading to direct inbound leads from high target prospects.

✅ Worked with the CEO of a leading HR Tech startup to develop a LinkedIn strategy that resulted in multiple investor introductions and high-profile partnership opportunities.

If you're an Executive who is interested in generating more revenue from LinkedIn, I'd love to connect with you.

We help Executives generate more revenue from LinkedIn. 

We believe that Executives should share their distinct voice with the world so our process ensures it sounds like you (because you say it), but you don't have to spend time on the platform. 

Building your brand on LinkedIn is a huge asset for generating new B2B sales opportunities. 

We help you do that.

We’re hiring!  Linked Revenue is looking for a Client Success partner to help senior executives turn relationships into real business conversations.

This is not passive account management. You’ll work directly with leaders, activate networks, execute thoughtful outreach, and drive momentum across engagements.

If you take ownership, build trust quickly, and are comfortable initiating relationships, this could be a great fit.

If you know someone, please send them my way.
