I create content viewed 300M times/year, driving 7 figures in revenue, but my parents still think I'm unemployed.

I’m the Founder of No Boring Brands, the content agency solving organic social for B2B SaaS.We're generating 100s of millions of organic views for our B2B clients via evergreen content.Also...- I built the largest marketing meme page on IG in less than 2 years- I'm currently trying to gaslight myself onto Under Armour's board of advisors- I lost $500k in crypto when I was 20 - I was interviewed by WSJ about memes (they never published my article lol) - I lost a spam eating contest to Joey Chestnut in front of 14,000 people- I've run meme campaigns for a $100B+ company- I can probably hit a 4 hybrid further than you- I spoke at SXSW about memes- I'm a twin- My mom checks my follower count every day and takes a screenshot, so you better follow or you'll upset her- Featured in AdAge for a skit I filmed in my bed

I do a bunch of fun stuff

My boys make fun of me, my team makes fun of me, even my clients make fun of me for the fact that I’m single.

But I decided to change that. 

In fact, I decided to set a world record, while changing that.

Clay World Records is an ongoing campaign where anyone can create Clay tables in unique scenarios to claim a World Record.

A physical Clay World Record book will be made, YOU can claim your own record and be included in the book.

And I decided to be the first ever person to build a Clay table on a clay table while on a date.

(The Clay table I built is essentially pipeline management for my love life. Forget tinder.)

Anybody else keep having these random webinars added to their calendars?

I get it, you have my email and want to get my attention, but is this even legal to invite me to an event like that?

I almost joined one of these last week by accident. It would've ruined my week.

My ideal work environment for productivity:

- Coffee shop
- Tall ceilings
- Liquid Death
- Headphones
- Couple making out to the left of me
- Loud breather to my right
- Homeless man staring at me through the window
- Loud barista who seemingly cannot find Sarah who ordered a Cold Brew
- Charging port
- Empty stomach

I mean, is this really too much to ask for??

I’m a simple man.

The real reason so many SaaS brands are boring on socials??

It’s not what you’d think.

The lifespan of a marketer is dictated by one word:

Differentiation.

If you want to differentiate as a brand, let’s talk: Noboringbrands.co

We send a once monthly agency update to ~150 marketing leaders.

We share client wins, team wins, and highlight a few pieces of viral content we’ve made in the last 30 days.

The entire goal of the update is to nurture our warmest leads.

But the biggest ROI from the agency update has been something personal for me:

I added my grandparents to the email so they can get a peek into what I’m building.

Both of my grandfathers were legit business men.

One of them built and sold an insurance firm.

The other was a President for Xerox in the mid 2000s. 

My grandpa who worked at Xerox received our agency update on Friday, where I shared a little bit about our sales process.

He replied, mentioning how he is really into retirement and doesn’t think about work much, 

But he said the email reminded him of the Xerox professional selling approach. 

And he provided a full breakdown of their SPIN selling process.

Something about being able to share my early career with the wisdom of both of my sharp grandfathers is quite literally the coolest thing I think I’ve experienced.

Work life harmony in full pursuit here.

Here’s something ground breaking:

If you want your brand to be witty on socials, the person making the content needs to be witty.

If you want your brand to be polished on socials, the person making the content needs to be polished.

If you want your brand to be unhinged on socials, the person making the content needs to be unhinged.

Luckily all of these are skills that can be learned.

But companies seem to overlook the importance of matching the talent they hire for social media with their goals of how they want to show up on socials.

Don’t expect the vet marketer you hired in 2018 who isn’t clever, to suddenly create clever content for your niche brand overnight because you decided you want to take a page our of Ryan Air’s book.

Like anything, it’s a skill that needs to be built.

Or you can skip the growing pains and hire outside help.

Want to know the MOST underrated sales tactic for 2026? 

You wouldn’t believe it.

Paid is the shorter term solution.

Organic is the longer term solution.

If you have a budget, throwing money on paid will get you more immediate results.

But over time, achieving those same results will become increasingly more expensive.

Whereas throwing money towards organic will easily take 90+ days to see results.

But over time, achieving those same results will become increasingly cheaper.

If you stop spending on paid, that leadflow will immediately shut off.

If you stop spending money investing in organic, the algorithm will still push ALL of your content 24/7. 

Both paid and organic have a role in your social strategy, confusing their roles is what gets you in trouble as a social media manager.

Paid, immediate results, short term solution.

Organic, slower results, long term solution.

underrated ROI of going full time on No Boring Brands?

i legitimately cannot remember the last time i was on a meeting i didn't want to be on.

also, i legitimately cannot remember the last time i was able to passively be in a meeting.

you know, the classic camera off "nothing from my end, thanks" type contribution.

every single meeting has a purpose.

every single meeting requires full attention.

pretty sweet.

this is me talking about making memes for a living btw.

I’m in NYC.

Get some breakfast.

Head right to a coworking space.

First thing I do there? Go right to the bathroom.

The train ride and oatmeal caught up to me.

I sit down in the middle of three stalls.

There’s a dude in the stall to the left.

There’s a dude in the stall to the right.

At first I sat down locked in on my mission.

But after 10 minutes I began to take notice of the fellas to my right and left.

They were grinding.

Working hard on their mission.

Suddenly I felt an energy.

The guy in the stall to my right said something.

"Can I get some TP??"

It was no longer just about my mission.

I reach down, grab some extra TP for him.

Hand it under the stall.

My mindset changed, we're now a team. All grinding for a common end goal.

Just three brothers doing their duty in the dimly lit bathroom of the 5th floor Regus in Manhattan.

I didn’t get to shake their hands but I would’ve loved to.

So now I’m posting this with hopes that they see this.

Being an entrepreneur in a Tier 1 vs Tier 3 city…


Tier 1 city:

Me: *meets someone*

Me: yo let’s get coffee or something soon, i want to hear what you’re working on.

Someone: dope, let’s do it.


Tier 3 city:

Me: *meets someone*

Me: yo let’s get coffee or something soon, i want to hear what you’re working on.

Someone: why?

80% of LinkedIn profiles don't convert potential clients—don't let yours be one of them!

Your LinkedIn profile isn’t just a digital business card. It’s a 24/7 salesperson. If it’s not converting, it’s time for a fix!

Here’s where most profiles go wrong 
(and how to fix them):

✔ Your banner
↳ 58% of people notice visuals first. 

↳ Use it to highlight your mission with a clear message or a strong call-to-action.

 ✔ Your headline
↳ Add value. 

↳ Instead of just your title, include how you help others or your niche expertise.

 ✔ Your featured section 
↳ Use this to showcase results—client success stories, impactful projects, or standout posts.

↳ Use this to also add your Call to Action (CTA) i.e. guiding viewers on what to do next (connect, DM, or visit your website)?

 ✔ Your About Section 
↳ Stats show 40% of LinkedIn users read about section.

↳ Think storytelling! Share your journey and let people see the real you. Make it personal and engaging.

 ✔ Your activity
↳ Active profiles get 5x more connection requests. 

↳ Post content 3-5x in a week, and
↳ Engage authentically and consistently.

✅ Remember, 

𝘈 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘦 = 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴.

CEOs, Founders or Solopreneurs — ready to quit LinkedIn because “nothing is working”? Stop. Read this before you disappear. 👇

Have you ever heard of the 'Bamboo Mentality'? 

For the first 5 years, bamboo shows no visible growth.
Nothing.
Just silent progress happening underground.

But once it’s ready…
It shoots up 90 feet in 6 weeks.
That’s the power of compound growth.

Most founders quit LinkedIn long before their “bamboo moment.”
They expect results in 30 days…
When real impact needs persistence, consistency, and patience.

As a brand strategist, I see this all the time.
Founders create content for a month → barely any engagement → they stop.

But the truth?

You don’t grow because of one viral post.
You grow because you show up when no one claps.

Adopt the bamboo mentality on LinkedIn:

 🌱 Keep posting even when the likes are low.
 🌱 Build relationships before expecting leads.
 🌱 Share your expertise even when it feels unnoticed.
 🌱 Stay consistent long enough for the algorithm to trust you.

Because the compound effect kicks in only for those who stay.
Your bamboo moment is coming — don’t quit before it shoots. 💛

PS — How long have you been consistent on LinkedIn?

Ready to Quit LinkedIn? Read This Before You dDsappear...

"Scheduling posts kills your reach."

You’ve heard this… but let me tell you a truth nobody talks about.

I get this question ALL the time — in comments, in DMs, everywhere:
“Asma… does scheduling content even work?”

Short answer?
YES. It does. 100%.
 
Long answer?

Your impressions didn’t drop because you scheduled… they dropped because you disappeared. (Read that again )

Most people schedule → post goes live → they do ZERO engagement.
 
No warm-up comments
No feed activity
No networking

…and then they blame the poor scheduling button. 😂

Think about it; if scheduling was “bad,” why would LinkedIn even build that feature?

They literally launched it because busy CEOs, founders, soloprenuers and creators needed it.

I schedule my content AND all my clients’ content in advance — and guess what?

It helps me:

 ✔ Focus more on engagement
 ✔ Be present for networking
 ✔ Avoid last-minute panic posting
 ✔ Show up consistently (even on low-energy days)

So the problem isn’t scheduling.
The problem is posting and vanishing.

Use the feature wisely, it’s a blessing in disguise for all of us juggling a hundred things at once.

PS- What's your opinion regarding this? Would love to hear it..
