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.

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.

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.

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.

Your SaaS product is powerful, but your website isn’t showing that.

 And when it feels outdated, slow, or unclear… users bounce. Investors doubt. Conversions drop.

That’s where I come in.

I'm Altaf, Co-founder of VictorFlow, Webflow Premium Partner, and a SaaS redesign expert with 17+ years of web experience.

Over the last few years, I’ve:

✅ Built 50+ SaaS websites to look legit and perform better
✅ Launched 200+ web projects that prioritize clarity, speed, and UX
✅ Built 100+ Webflow templates used by thousands of startups

If you’re a funded or bootstrapped SaaS founder looking to:

  → Build trust  → Convert more signups  → Stand out in your niche  ...you’re in the right place.

We saved 10 SaaS companies over $1M/year.

Not by scaling their ads.
Not by changing their product.

Just by fixing the one thing they kept ignoring:
Their website.

Here’s the funny part… every founder said the same thing:

We’ve been heads down on product… we haven’t touched the site in months.

And you could see it right away:

→ Pages loaded like it was 2015
→ CTAs fighting for attention
→ Messaging all over the place
→ Updates taking weeks because someone else handles it

The real issue?

They didn’t have a proper Webflow team.
Not one that understands SaaS, speed, and conversion.

Because let’s be honest:

→ Good SaaS designers are rare
→ Devs are overloaded
→ Product teams don’t have time
→ Freelancers are hit-or-miss

So here’s what we did…

We gave them one subscription that quietly fixed everything:

✅ New pages shipped in 1–3 days
✅ Clean design + conversion-focused builds
✅ Weekly improvements (not once a quarter)
✅ No handoffs, no delays, no overhead

And the results were… wild:

→  60% less internal bandwidth wasted
→  Huge savings in hiring + freelance costs
→  Faster launches, cleaner UX, higher conversions

No drama.
No big agency fluff.

Just consistent execution that compounds.

All 10 SaaS teams are still with us, because once the website stops slowing you down, growth feels a whole lot easier.

If your site is outdated, slow to update, or just not converting…

This might be the easiest win you get this quarter.

Subscription Plan for SaaS

I’ve been running my web agency for 12+ years…

And I still take a fixed salary from my own company.

Last month, I got a flood of DMs.

→ Not about design.
→ Not about clients.
→ Not about Webflow.

But about money.

→ How do I earn fast?
→ How do I make lakhs quickly?
→ How do I settle in a few months through design?

And look, I get it.

Money matters.
Life doesn’t pause.

But here’s the honest truth:

👉 If I had chased only money in the beginning, Victoflow wouldn’t exist today.

No brand.
No clients.
No team.
Nothing.

Here are the 3 things that actually helped me grow, slowly, steadily, and safely:

1️⃣ Don’t upgrade your lifestyle before upgrading your business.

The moment you make a profit, it’s tempting to buy:
New phone, new bike, new whatever.

But the real smart move is:

• Hire help
• Build a team
• Take more projects
• Strengthen the base

Lifestyle can wait.
Growth can’t.

2️⃣ Pay yourself a fixed salary. Always.

Whether your company earns 2L or 20L…
Your salary stays the same.

This one habit saved us during slow seasons.

3️⃣ Slow months are normal. Don’t panic.

Every agency has quiet weeks.

What helped us survive:

• Saving during peak seasons
• Offering add-ons
• Diversifying income
• Staying consistent, not desperate

And the biggest lesson you should learn:

✅ Take care of your team.
✅ Teach them.
✅ Support them.
✅ Grow with them.

When your team rises, your company grows without you pushing every day.

12 years later, here’s what I truly believe:

• Don’t build for quick money.
• Build for long-term freedom.

📌 If you’re in the design or agency world, follow Altaf Rahman 🚀, I share real lessons that actually help.

If I designed your website today to bring in $$$$…

Here’s exactly what I’d fix first 👇

1️⃣ Say what you do in one clear sentence (no guessing)
2️⃣ Make your hero CTA the only obvious action (more clicks)
3️⃣ Show the problem you solve in 5 seconds (faster clarity)
4️⃣ Use real social proof above the fold (instant trust)
5️⃣ Show the product/UI immediately (people buy what they see)
6️⃣ Cut 50% of the text (readability = conversions)
7️⃣ Fix spacing & hierarchy (your design shouldn’t confuse)
8️⃣ Remove distracting buttons/links (keep users focused)
9️⃣ Add 1 simple value prop section (why choose you?)
🔟 Make the mobile version flawless (60–70% traffic depends on it)

When you combine these, sales rates increase because clients finally understand what you do and why they should care.

Your homepage shouldn’t make people think.
It should make them say, “Yes, this is what I need.”

If you’re a new UI/UX designer, read this before you design another button.

Most beginners focus on the wrong things:

❌ Fancy gradients
❌ Cool animations
❌ Trendy fonts
❌ Dribbble-style layouts

They look pretty…
But they don’t actually help real users.

Here are 5 simple rules that will make you better than most juniors:

1️⃣ Design for clarity, not decoration
If people have to stop and think, something’s off.

2️⃣ Reduce decisions
Too many options = confused brains. Keep it obvious.

3️⃣ Prioritize hierarchy
Guide the eye:
→ What matters first
→ What to click
→ What happens next

4️⃣ Make actions obvious
Your primary CTA should feel like “the” choice. Not a guess.

5️⃣ Test with real humans
Not designers. Not your roommate. Actual users.

UI/UX isn’t about making screens pretty.
It’s about making them feel easy.

Learn how people think, not just how pixels look.

Do that, and clients will remember your name.

I share practical UI/UX lessons, real client stories, and simple frame

I nearly closed 4 website redesign clients in ONE day.

These are the strategies that helped the most.

Most designers struggle to close even one client.

And it’s not because they’re bad.
It’s because no one teaches them how to talk to clients.

Closing isn’t hard when you focus on the right things.

Here’s what actually works 👇

1️⃣ Be clear. Not clever.

Clients don’t want big words.
They want simple explanations.
If they instantly understand you → they trust you.

2️⃣ Show the problem.

Don’t say: Your site is slow and outdated.
Say: Your users can’t find value in 3 seconds, that’s why conversions drop.

One sentence.
Big impact.

3️⃣ Give value in the first message.

A quick UX fix.
A simple layout suggestion.
A better CTA idea.

Small insights create huge authority.

4️⃣ Don’t chase. Create space.

If a lead goes quiet, I send one line:
Whenever this becomes a priority, I’m here.

This keeps respect high and pressure low.

5️⃣ Stay calm on calls.

Clients don’t buy hype.
They buy confidence.
Talk like someone who’s solved this 100+ times.

Something I learned after 150+ projects:

People don’t choose the best designer.
They choose the one who makes everything feel easier.

And once you understand that
Closing becomes way less scary.

I got rejected 13 times before landing my dream client.

Okay… maybe not 13. But it felt like it.

When I first started as a web designer, clients would change their minds… a lot.

3 times… 5 times… sometimes more.

I’d spend hours on a homepage, only to hear:

→ Can we move this?
→ Actually, scrap that section.
→ Let’s try something completely different.

I felt frustrated.
Confused.
Exhausted.

I even wondered if I was cut out for this.

Then one day, it hit me:

→ The client wasn’t trying to make things hard.
→ They just didn’t know exactly what they wanted.
→ They needed clarity, and I could help give it.

So I tried something simple:

✅ Keep track of every version
✅ Share small parts instead of waiting for the full design
✅ Ask simple questions: Which version makes this easier to understand?
✅ Explain the why, and give options, not just no.

The first project I tried this on?

6 revisions.
Finished on time.
The client was happy.

Now, when clients change their mind, I don’t stress.

→ I see it as part of the process.
→ It’s not rejection. It’s collaboration.
→ Revisions aren’t a headache, they’re a chance to build clarity.

Since then, every project feels smoother.
Clients trust the process, and I enjoy building more.

If you’re a designer, freelancer, or anyone working with clients…

Remember this: Every “change request” is an opportunity to guide someone to clarity.

📌 What’s the biggest lesson a client ever taught you?
Share it in the comments, let’s learn from each other.

Web design joruney, UIUX career, website designer

The story of our first client…

💰 $10 → ⭐ 5-star rating → May 10, 2011

It wasn’t much money.
But back then? It felt like everything.

The project? Turning a 20+ page design into HTML.
A huge job for our first client.

Every page was tricky.
Every section had tiny bugs.
Every step tested our patience… and our skills.

But we finished it.
And the client loved it.

That $10 taught us things no book could:

✅ Listen to feedback and actually use it
✅ Spot mistakes early before they cost time
✅ Talk clearly with clients

After this first job, every project felt easier.

Not because it was simple,
But because we learned how to learn from each project.

A few jobs later, we learned:

→ How to set prices confidently
→ How to plan work better
→ How to turn feedback into growth

Looking back, that first client wasn’t just $10.
It was a launchpad—a small win that led to bigger ones.

If you’re just starting out:

1. Your first project doesn’t need to be perfect.
2. It just needs to teach you something important.

Every client, every project, every year, it all counts.

Stop guessing what your audience wants.

I used to waste hours second-guessing design decisions.

Then I learned how to make ChatGPT actually useful.

Here's what changed everything:

1️⃣ Start with who you're helping

→ Building for SaaS founders?
→ Freelancers?
→ Online store owners?

Their struggles aren't the same.
Neither should your approach be.


2️⃣ Give ChatGPT something to work with

❌ Vague: Make my website better

✅ Specific: I'm working with SaaS founders who get traffic but no conversions. What 3 homepage changes would make the biggest difference?


3️⃣ Ask for the roadmap, not just ideas

Tell ChatGPT you want steps:

→ First, look at your hero section
→ Then, check your page speed
→ Finally, test your CTA placement

Structure gets results.

Here's where it gets interesting:

→ Don't settle for the first answer
→ Push back. Refine it. Ask "what else?"
→ Test different angles until something clicks

Ask for multiple strategies.
Pick what feels right for YOUR audience.

Have ChatGPT write real copy, headlines, error messages, and button text.
You'll start seeing patterns in what resonates.

The key?

Use it immediately.
Good insights expire if you don't act on them.

One more thing:

Show ChatGPT your actual work.
Ask it to review your designs or copy.

You'll be surprised what you've been missing.

Your web projects don't have to feel like guesswork anymore.

🔁  If this helped, share it with someone who's tired of designing in the dark.

Your SaaS website is bleeding money.

Here's why:

I reviewed 50+ SaaS sites.
Found the same 5 killers:

Problem #1: Beautiful but confusing
Users don't know what you sell.

Problem #2: Hidden CTAs
Signup buttons nowhere to be found.

Problem #3: Zero trust
No logos. No testimonials. No proof.

Problem #4: Pricing mystery
Users shouldn't hunt for it.

Problem #5: Hero chaos
Too much text. Brain overload.

The damage?

- You built for 6 months.
-Paid $5k for design.

But users leave in 8 seconds.

The fix is simple:

→ Show what you solve, not how pretty you are
→ Put CTAs where people actually look
→ Display real proof that people use your product
→ Make pricing stupid-easy to find
→ Keep hero sections clean. One message. That's it.

Do this.

Get 10-18% more demo signups.
It's not rocket science.

The SaaS Conversion Checklist

If you’re still using ChatGPT as your main AI tool…

You’re playing on beginner mode.

ChatGPT made everyone powerful.
Yes, 100%.

But it also made everyone average.

Because when millions of people use the same tool…
The output starts to look the same.

You’ve seen it:

→ The same captions
→ The same emails
→ The same strategies
→ The same “10 ideas” posts

It’s not your fault.
That’s what happens when a tool becomes mainstream.

But here’s what the top 1% are doing quietly:

→ They stack tools
→ They don’t depend on one
→ They don’t stop at “good enough”
→ They let AI support their creativity, not replace it

If you want the edge most people will never see…
You need to explore beyond ChatGPT.

Here are 5 tools that work better, think smarter, and give you a real advantage:

1. Perplexity - Research that feels like cheating.
2. Claude - Writes with depth, clarity, and real reasoning.
3. Ideogram - Visuals that look like a full design team made them.
4. ElevenLabs - Turns your words into studio-grade voiceovers.
5. Gamma - Decks, docs, and presentations in minutes.

AI won’t replace people.
But people using better tools will replace the ones who aren’t.

Nothing hurts more than putting hours into a design

And still getting zero leads.

Not because:

• Your design is bad.
• Your branding is weak.
• Your niche is too small.

It’s because:

Visitors don’t know where to go.
Your CTAs vanish in the layout.
Your portfolio looks good but tells nothing.

Because websites don’t convert on beauty.
They convert on clarity.

And clarity drives action.

You don’t design for looks.
You design for:

• Direction.
• Trust.
• Momentum.

So what’s the real problem?

→ Templates chase aesthetics over results.
→ Pages look stunning but say nothing.
→ Portfolios show images, not impact.
→ Services read like essays, not value.

Then the drop-off happens.

→ People scroll with no purpose.
→ Offers get skipped.
→ Pages don’t guide the next step.
→ And visitors leave before taking action.

And the pattern continues.

→ Pretty layouts replace real hierarchy.
→ Big visuals overshadow messaging.
→ Content gets buried.
→ The path to contact is never obvious.

Then conversions collapse.

→ Buttons aren’t seen.
→ Navigation confuses.
→ Case studies lack proof.
→ And leads hit zero.

So what actually fixes this?

Conversion-focused structure.

It restores:

• Flow.
• Intent.
• Direction.

Because a high-converting website isn’t magic.

It’s:

• Simple.
• Clear.
• Action-driven.

And when that structure returns, everything changes.

→ Visitors understand what you do.
→ Pages guide them step-by-step.
→ Your services make sense instantly.
→ Leads start coming in again.

This isn’t theory.
This isn’t guesswork.
This is how websites convert.

So ask yourself:

1. Is your site designed to impress or guide?
2. Do your pages show beauty or clarity?
3. Does your portfolio prove value or just display work?
4. Do your CTAs lead or get lost?

Because this post isn’t for vanity.
It’s a reminder most templates need.

Save it.
Fix your flow.
Build for action, not decoration.

And if you want a template that already does this…
Drop “TEMPLATE” in the comments.

Last week, a medical recruitment agency from the UK reached out.

They help doctors move to Canada.

They weren't unhappy with their website. They just felt something was off.

The design looked fine. Everything worked. But it didn't feel like them.

So instead of starting over, they grabbed one of our templates and asked us to make it theirs.

We did a few things:

- Cleaned up the layout
- Matched the design to their vibe
- Swapped in more human imagery
- Made the user journey smoother
- Built it all on Webflow

Nothing crazy. Just small, intentional tweaks.

A few rounds later, we launched.

And now?

- More trust when people land on it.
- More personality in the experience.
- More clarity for the doctors they're trying to reach.

Here's what I've learned doing this work:

Great design isn't always about big, bold moves.

Sometimes it's just about getting the details right.

A website doesn't always need a full rebuild. Sometimes it just needs someone to listen to what it's trying to say.

If your site feels close but not quite there yet, let's talk.
We'll help you shape it into something that actually works for you.
