visible.

Helping founders, executive coaches, and B2B leaders turn LinkedIn into their biggest growth channel.

At visible, we don’t do fluff, templates, or copy-paste “content calendars.”

We ghostwrite for leaders who want their LinkedIn presence to:

- Attract inbound opportunities (clients, investors, speaking gigs)
- Build authority and trust at scale
- Drive pipeline without begging for attention

How we do it:

- Hooks that stop the scroll
- Stories that stick
- Messaging that positions you as the go-to authority in your space

What are the results we deliver, you ask?

Profiles that transform from ghost towns into credibility engines.

Content that sounds human, smart, and bold.

A LinkedIn presence that sells for you while you’re off running the business.

LinkedIn is noisy.

Everyone’s posting. Few are remembered. Even fewer convert.

Most feeds look identical.

Buzzwords, recycled advice, and templated content that could’ve been written for anyone.

That sameness is your enemy. It drowns out your voice, your perspective, your credibility.

That’s where I come in.

I run visible, a ghostwriting agency for founders, executive coaches, and B2B leaders who want their LinkedIn presence to:

- Attract opportunities (clients, investors, speaking gigs)
- Build trust at scale
- Drive pipeline without chasing leads


How do I do it?

Through stupid good writing. Writing that actually sounds like you. Writing that makes people stop scrolling, think, and DM.

My approach isn’t templates or gimmicks. It’s:

- Hooks that demand attention
- Stories that stick
- Messaging that positions you as the authority in your space


That’s why my clients, CEOs, coaches, and leaders across industries, see their feeds transform from ghost towns into credibility engines.

If you want LinkedIn content that feels human, sounds smart, and sells for you while you’re off doing actual work…

Let’s talk.

Prakhar Sharma

Them: "We don't use ChatGPT to write LinkedIn posts, nooo, that'd be so lame, come on."

Also them:

"In today's fast-shifting wobbleverse, only the flibberflop can outpace the snizzle.

Because it's not about crinkling the plop. It's about splonking the whizz.

No rizz. No fizz. Just whizz.

Here's the truth:

True leaders don't just bizzle. They full-throttle skadoosh into the wobbleflop."

See the point?

Your reputation is aligned with your content.

And when your posts sound like a custom GPT that decided to have a field day, your reputation will take a beating.

The same holds true for Al-generated comments as well.

Seriously, skip the GPT.

P.S. - If you want your LinkedIn content to ACTUALLY sound like you (and not like some shabby old bot), send me a DM. That's what I do for a living.

P.P.S. - I wrote and published this post 2 months ago and it did fairly well, so yes, this is a shameless repost. Still better than most AI-generated sh*t I see on my feed everyday.

They call me the LinkedIn guy || Building authority & pipeline for founders, execs, & b2b leaders through LinkedIn content

I've been posting on LinkedIn consistently for almost 3 years now, and yet, I still:

- Delete posts
- Edit them after publishing
- Wait for comments to roll in
- Overthink my content sometimes
- Make typos and errors

And a million other things that you're probably going through.

This shit is hard.

I know what it's like to spend hours writing posts only to be ghosted by the entire feed.

I know what it’s like to second-guess every sentence.

To hit publish and instantly regret it.
To wonder if maybe, just maybe, you’re not “cut out” for this platform.

You don’t become consistent after you figure it all out.

You figure it out because you stay consistent.

Every deleted post teaches you something.
Every flop sharpens your instincts.

That’s been my biggest lesson after 3 years:

You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to be here.

They call me the LinkedIn guy || Building authority & pipeline for founders, exec coaches & b2b leaders through LinkedIn content

Thursday is the best day to post on LinkedIn. 


No, wait, was it tuesday?

Okay, monday, final answer.

Seriously, stop guessing your posting routine based on a free pdf guide you downloaded off the internet. 

Post on all days.
Do it for a few weeks.
Collect data, jump into your analytics, and find which days have worked best for you. 

It's thursday for me, it could be saturday for you. The only way to find out is to look at the data.

Trust the numbers. Everything else is bullshit.

I'm doing everything wrong on LinkedIn.


- I don't schedule my posts.
- I hardly ever post pictures or videos.
- I don't even remember the last time I used a hashtag.

My approach goes against every piece of advice shared by the gurus.

That's because I'm holding on to just one piece of advice:
Staying true to myself on LinkedIn.

Social media is noise.

And with ChatGPT and templates, it's ridiculously easy to become a part of that noise.

Your best bet to stand out is to not do what everyone else is doing.

And stick to what works for you.

It's text-based posts for me. It could be pictures for you.

Find what works.
Double down on it.
Rinse and repeat.

That's how you cut through the noise on LinkedIn.

LinkedIn reach is in the toilet right now. Soon, you'll start seeing posts that claim numbers don't matter.

"Oh, the algorithm hates me."

"I'm not focused on the engagement numbers right now."

"I don't really care about impressions, it's more about the substance."

I say bullshit.

Numbers do matter. Impressions, reach, engagement, they all matter.

Because if no one sees your content, no one hears your ideas.

If no one hears your ideas, no one trusts your expertise.

And if no one trusts your expertise, good luck building a pipeline.

Numbers aren't the ultimate goal, sure. But you can't deny the fact that they bring in visibility.

The kind of visibility that warms up a cold audience, opens doors, starts conversations, and shortens sales cycles.

So before you convince yourself that numbers “don’t matter,” ask one simple question:

If your content reached the right 1,000 people every week - how different would your business look in 6 months?

Exactly.

If you want help getting your content actually seen (and not just written), send me a DM.

Nothing to see here. Just a list of 5 things you should do to make your post sound less like AI and more like you.

(Because I know you naughty nancies won't stop using ChatGPT to write LinkedIn content)

1. Stop writing like you're submitting a college essay. Loosen up.

2. Use the words you actually use in real life, not “henceforth” and “thereafter.”

3. Tell one real story per week. Even a tiny one does the job.

4. Cut every sentence that feels like it was written by a corporate handbook.

5. Read your post out loud. If you cringe, rewrite it.


That’s it.

Simple fixes. Huge difference.

Or you could just skip the whole charade and hire me to write your LinkedIn content.

Much simpler, faster, and better.

5 things to do if your LinkedIn posts keep flopping:


1. Ditch the overexplaining. Make your point fast and clean.

2. Stop trying to sound smart. Clarity over complexity, people.

3. Make your first line earn the second. If the hook doesn’t grab, nothing else matters.

4. Tell a story. One sentence of lived experience beats ten lines of theory.

5. Post when you actually feel something about what you’re saying. People can tell the difference.


It’s not the algorithm or shadow-banning.

It’s just basics you’re skipping.

Fix these, and your engagement will double before you know it.


Bonus tip: Make your posts relatable. Make your reader go 'Damn, that has happened to me'. They won't be able to help but engage.

And of course, if you'd rather skip the trial and error - I help founders and executives create high-performing posts that actually sound like them.

DM me and I'll show you how.

I was boarding a flight last week when I got a text from a client.

It was a very short message.

Just this:

“Need a post for tomorrow’s keynote. Can you pull it off before takeoff?”

I had 18 minutes before they closed the cabin door.

Opened Notes.
Sketched the angle.
Wrote the post.
Edited twice.
Hit send.

By the time the air hostess walked by saying “phones on airplane mode,” my phone buzzed one last time:

“Brilliant. Invoice settled.”

That was the whole exchange.

No discovery call or approval chain.

When people know your work, trust your process, and like the way you think, the friction disappears.

That’s what a strong LinkedIn presence buys you.

It builds familiarity long before a conversation happens.

It turns cold strangers into warm believers who already trust your judgment.

And when trust is already in the room, everything moves faster - decisions, approvals, payments.

You stop chasing.
People start coming to you pre-sold.

If you want that kind of ease and deal-flow from LinkedIn, send me a DM. 

That's exactly what I do for a living.

Very quick LinkedIn tip that actually works:

Lived experiences have been blowing up here.

My most successful posts lately have mostly been about my own insights and stories that I've drawn from real life.

It’s a pattern I’ve noticed with my clients and other creators too.

So if you’re looking for your next big LinkedIn post:

- Go over your week
- Analyse your sales call transcripts
- Revisit a recent client win or loss
- Think about a conversation that stuck with you
- Look for that moment you felt something; frustration, excitement, clarity


That’s where your best content hides.

You don’t need to do another “10 tips for success” post. You need a real story told with honesty and insight.

That’s what makes people stop scrolling.


And if you’d rather have someone pull those stories out of you and turn them into high-performing posts, that’s literally what I do for a living.

DM me and I’ll show you how it works.

My exec client went to a conference recently. Nothing fancy, he does a lot of conferences. But this time, something felt different.

He had at least 10 people come up to him and introduce themselves.

They said they keep "seeing him on their LinkedIn feed"

A few even referenced certain posts that they really liked.

Usually, he hands out business cards at these conferences, hoping someone would reach out to him. 

This time, he didn't have to pull out those cards.

People already knew him.
People were already interested in him. 
And they wanted to have a conversation with him. 

All because we built a strong LinkedIn presence for him. 

There are a lot of upsides to having a personal brand. But this has got to be one of the best ones: 

It makes networking a piece of cake.

(And as a little side bonus, you feel like a celebrity)

If you’re a corporate leader who still treats LinkedIn like an afterthought, you might be leaving opportunity on the table.

DM me and I’ll show you how to fix that.

Me: 
*writes a rant post about how the LinkedIn reach is in the toilet and it's getting difficult to stack up impressions*

LinkedIn, the next day:

Last week, my client's post did 800+ reactions and 127,000 impressions. That was followed by a ton of connection invites, DMs, and collaboration requests.

All the numbers and applause felt great, I won't lie, but I was excited about something else.

The post was all words.

No pretty pictures, no carefully curated graphics, nothing at all. 

Just. My. Damn. Words.

So if you've been waiting for the perfect pictures to go with your posts, or that profile design revamp that just can't wait, stop kidding yourself. 

It's not waiting, it's glorified procrastination.

Use your words. Use them right. 

That's all you need on LinkedIn.

This might upset a few of my designer friends, but I think the days of raking in impressions and engagement using fancy graphics on LinkedIn are behind us.

They look great. No doubt about that.

All those colors and shapes. Fun.

But the platform has shifted.

People want to read you.
Your perspective.
Your stories.
Your lived experiences.
Your clarity and conviction.

A good graphic might stop the scroll.
A good sentence keeps people there.

And here's what I've noticed after writing hundreds of posts for founders, execs, and B2B teams:

Words outperform design here.
Authenticity outperforms aesthetics.
And consistency outperforms everything.

You don’t need a design team or a “visual identity.”

You just need something to say and the courage to say it well.

If you're struggling with that part, I help founders and executives turn their real experiences into high-performing text-only posts.

DM me and I’ll show you how.

Last year, I met a DJ in Dubai. And he wanted to grow his LinkedIn. (Crazy, I know)

You'd think it's impossible. It isn't.

Here's the strategy I came up with:

1. Talk about the numbers:
No, not the chart numbers. Talk about how his music brings in loyal customers to the club every weekend.

2. Talk about your passion for music:
People like people who are passionate about something. Show it to them.

3. Connect with the right stakeholders:
Restaurant owners, marketing managers of hotel chains, etc.

Before, he was clueless.

He knew LinkedIn had potential, but no idea how to tap into it.

Now, he has direction.

He has a way to stand out on LinkedIn.

Now, he is visible. 

That's what I do at my agency.

More visibility.
More awareness.
More opportunities.

You don't need to be a big shot marketer or a tech founder to make some noise on LinkedIn.

All you need is a story.

Along with the right writer who can turn that story into engaging LinkedIn content.

And I think I might just know someone.

Most of you don't post on LinkedIn because you don't know what to post. Let's fix that today.

Here are 10 questions that will help you write super engaging posts.

(I've created this list from the same questions I ask my ghostwriting clients.)

Use them. Steal them. Do whatever you want to do with them.

1. What's a client question you've answered 50 times this year?

2. What's the biggest misconception about your work?

3. What's a painful mistake you made that your audience can avoid?

4. What do most people in your industry get completely wrong?

5. What's one lesson from outside business (sports, travel, family) that shapes how you work?

6. What was the hardest decision you made this year, and how did you choose?

7. What's one process or system you swear by and why?

8. What's the most underrated skill in your industry right now?

9. What's a belief you had starting out that turned out to be false?

10. What do you want every new client to know before working with you?

Answer these and you'll have 10 posts ready to go.

The truth is you don't need more "content ideas."

You need sharper questions that expose the stories and insights hiding in plain sight.


P.S. If you'd rather focus on running your business and get high-performance LinkedIn posts like these written for you → DM me.

That's what I do for a living

Don’t stay somewhere that drains your soul. 

It’s the slowest road to a life of regret:

Whether that’s staying in:

- A role you dread
- A draining relationship
- A group that holds you back

It’s never worth the cost to your well-being.

But why do we cling to places that harm us?
The main reasons often include:

↳ Feeling like we’ve invested too much
↳ Fear of what happens next
↳ Loyalty taken too far

Here’s what to try if you feel stuck in the wrong space:

1. Reflect and write it down
↳ Give yourself time to see the full picture
↳ List the ups and downs with total clarity

2. Lean on others
↳ Share your thoughts with people you trust
↳ Try online communities to see a different perspective

3. Start improving yourself
↳ Pinpoint what could help you grow from here
↳ Learn, study, or upskill for your next chapter

4. Set your timeline to leave
↳ Break down each step and set dates
↳ Track progress and adjust as needed

5. Make your exit
↳ Take action and commit to your decision
↳ Have support around you as you transition

Know that leaving won’t be simple.
It might be the toughest step you take.

But life’s too short to be stuck in resentment.

When you’re in the right space, you become:

- More energised
- More at peace
- A version of you that thrives

And who doesn’t want that?

Josh Sanders

41% of people second guess their choices daily.

Here’s how to stop wasting time 👇

A great cheat sheet from the main man Chris Donnelly 
Super useful for me as an over thinker haha ! 

It's so easy to second guess yourself when you: 

- Are overwhelmed with work
- Are Listening to too many opinions
- Don't have a system for making decisions 

This can then often lead to: 

- Delayed and inaccurate decisions 
- Missed opportunities 
- Frustration

These 7 mental models can change that:

1. OODA Loop (John Boyd)
→ A loop to help you think fast and stay sharp.
Observe. Orient. Decide. Act. Repeat.

2. First Principles Thinking
→ Break things down to raw truths and rebuild from scratch.

3. Six Thinking Hats (Edward de Bono)
→ Switch between logic, emotion, and creativity instead of mixing them up.

4. 80/20 Rule (Pareto Principle)
→ Focus on what really moves the needle. Drop what doesn’t.

5. Root Cause Analysis (Sakichi Toyoda)
→ Ask ‘why’ until you land on the real problem.

6. Occam’s Razor
→ The simplest answer is often the right one. Don’t overcomplicate it.

7. The 5x5 Rule
→ If it won’t matter in 5 years, don’t spend more than 5 minutes on it.

Now do not fear... you don't need to try all of these. 
The key part here is choosing the best one that works for you. 

Because once you can start to systemise your decisions. 
It is so much easier to make harder decisions much faster.

9 Everyday Phrases

That quietly ruin your reputation.

The worst part?
They seem harmless at first glance.

Protect how you're perceived.
By avoiding these 9 damaging phrases:

1. "Trust me..."
↳ Comes across as defensive and makes you seem less credible.
↳ Try instead: "Here’s why I believe this to be true."

2. "I hate to bother you, but..."
↳ Makes you sound like an inconvenience.
↳ Instead, say: "Is now a good time?"

3. "You wouldn’t understand"
↳ Feels dismissive and can alienate others.
↳ Instead, say: "Let me explain it another way."

4. "It’s out of my hands"
↳ Signals a lack of responsibility.
↳ Instead, say: "Here’s what I can do to help."

5. "You always..." or "You never..."
↳ Feels like an attack and shuts down conversation.
↳ Instead, say: "I’ve noticed this happening recently."

6. "Calm down"
↳ Can escalate frustration rather than ease it.
↳ Instead, say: "I get why this is upsetting."

7. "If I were you..."
↳ Can sound condescending or dismissive.
↳ Instead, say: "From my experience, this worked well."

8. "I thought you knew"
↳ Feels like shifting blame onto someone else.
↳ Instead, say: "Let me fill you in on the details."

9. "Sorry, but that’s just how I am"
↳ Comes across as stubborn and unwilling to adapt.
↳ Instead, say: "I’ll make an effort to improve."

Your words shape how people see you…
Make sure they’re working for you, not against you.

9 Common Sayings

LinkedIn is dead....

According to everyone on LinkedIn. 

Every year, people will become motivated to post on here. 
Often they'll see momentum fast. 

But then change happens...

A new format or algorithm change arrives
And often people aren't fast enough. 

They will continue to use the same techniques as before. 
And their results and motivation will start to diminish. 

But here's the brutal reality...

LinkedIn (like most social platforms) change ALL the time. 
To keep up you need to adapt fast and be very resilient.

So here's 6 tips for staying on top of the changes 
And how to adapt fast. 

1. Kill the ego 

- Understand that the algorithm doesn't care about you 
- The more sharable the content, the likely it is to perform

2. Always keep audience at the top of mind 

- Your content should always serve your audience 
- Think about the psychology of how your content stops the scroll

3. Study the best people in your industry 

- Great creators adapt fast. So follow those who adjust at speed 
- If someone changes up, check it out and break down why

4. Experiment all the time

- Do not continue to use the same format if it doesn't work 
- Treat each post like an experiment and test different variables

5. Accept things with a pinch of salt 

- There is a lot of misinformation spread on here 
- What will work for others may not work for you

6. Play the long game 

- Remember 0.1% growth compounds daily 
- Those who quit, never see the benefits

LinkedIn is not dead. 
It's dead for those who are unwilling to change.

The simple yet quite profound truth: 

No-body has it all figured out. 

I've helped Chris Donnelly scale past 1 mil followers,
And thought some of the fastest growing creators on LinkesIn

But 3 years ago I was a marketing exec with 0 LinkedIn followers.
And 0 clue what personal branding even meant.

(My first boss told me to add people to hit the magic 500 connections 😂) 

To be honest, when I started, I felt like a complete fraud every time I posted.

Here's what changed everything:

I figured out that no-body really knows whats going on. 
There is no immediate magic answer. 

It's just learning small things over time. 
And being relentless with this process every day. 

This changed everything for me. 
I stopped aiming for "perfect post" 

And instead treated every day as an experiment. 

Every successful person I've spoken to, goes through the exact same process: 

Every milestone feels terrifying at first.
The imposter syndrome still hits daily.
The pressure never really goes away.

But neither does the growth.

And so really... 
When you stop comparing yourself to others,
Or When you stop thinking everyone else has cracked the code...

That's when real progress begins.

So instead, focus on:

- Showing up consistently. 
- Actively learning from your mistakes
- Be the first to adapt to new things. 

The people who "make it" aren't special.
They just refuse to let the fear of looking stupid stop them.

So if you've been holding back because you don't feel ready...
Nobody does :)

Start messy. Start imperfect. But start today.

7 Crucial Productivity Mistakes 

And How to Avoid Them. 

Ever felt like you're always busy but never getting ahead?

Sometimes, it's less about how much you work.
And more about working smart instead of hard.

Those who fall into these habits
Will often feel like:

- They're always busy
- They're consistently overwhelmed
- Results seem far and few between

Break this cycle today.
Be aware of the mistakes… and how to avoid them:

1. Thinking “Busy” is Productive
↳ Just because your calendar is full doesn’t mean you’re productive.
↳ Focus on the 20% driving 80% of your results. Double down on that.

2. Neglecting Your Health to Get Work Done
↳ Sacrificing health for work reduces efficiency.
↳ Make health non-negotiable. Move daily and eat nutritious foods.

3. Avoiding Breaks to “Power Through”
↳ Powering through without breaks slows your brain down.
↳ Take regular short breaks. 5 minutes can make a big difference.

4. Trying to Multi-Task
↳ Multitasking scatters focus and overloads the brain.
↳ Focus on one task at a time for better results.

5. Trying to Achieve Perfection
↳ Perfectionism can be paralysing and stop progress.
↳ Focus on progress over perfection. Start and iterate fast.

6. Failing to Prioritise Tasks
↳ An overloaded to-do list causes important tasks to be missed.
↳ Use the Eisenhower Matrix to prioritise urgent and important tasks.

7. Having Unclear Goals
↳ Unclear goals lead to a lack of focus and drive.
↳ Ensure your goals are clear, purposeful, and urgent.

The key here:

Recognising these productivity mistakes for yourself.
As no one will fix them for you.

Remember…

Smart work will always beat hard work.

7 Crucial Productivity Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

In 2025 organic reach is down 65%. 

But the top 1% are growing 157x faster...

Find out how in our new free masterclass: https://lnkd.in/ehRvX9d9

Both Chris and Will analysed 318,842 LinkedIn™ posts from Q3 2025... 

And the results were shocking. 

The change this previous quarter has been huge. 
And you should be prepared to adapt. 

Organic reach is unfortunately down 65% 
(the lowest dip we've seen !) 

But fear not, there is still time to catch up. 

Don't guess your way to growth. 
Here's what's working in Q3 of 2025: 

The platform is changing: 

1. Median impressions are down 18% year over year
2. Normal creators are growing 20% slower since Q2
3. Suggested content is creating more space
4. Virality caps are creating space for niche content

What the top 1% do differently: 

1. Embrace different formats
2. Comment thoughtfully - 150+ meaningful conversations weekly
3. Stay consistent with quality (9/10 of views come from top 20% of posts)

THE Winning post formats (by reach multiple): 

1. Carousels (4.0x): Best results from story-driven education
2. Infographics (3.0x): Great for driving newsletter subs 
3. Motivational quotes (2.5x): Visuals need to be branded 
4. Personal Stories (2.3x): BTS pictures beat selfies 
5. Video (1.9x): great for building trust 
6. Text Only (1.0x): Must have 14+ paragraphs

Tactics to boost performance: 

1. Write conversationally: Shorter words perform 35% better
2. Structure matters: Less then 7 paragraphs = 74% performance drop
3. Length is your friend: 1.3k-3k character posts get 38% more reach. 
4. Post on the Weekend: Sunday posts see highest reach
5. Reach isn't killed by externa links: 3+ useful links get 236% more reach 

And the crazy part is...
This is just a sneak peek of what's happened.

Most people will never reach 10,000 followers.

Here’s why that happens:

They don’t realise LinkedIn mirrors real life.
It’s all about persistence and adaptability.

People watch creators skyrocket in growth...
And assume they blew up overnight.

The truth is completely different.

This is how the journey really unfolds:

1. You define your core topics and have buckets of ambition.
2. You then start posting and put yourself out there.
3. You engage daily in comments and start to build a community.
4. You follow LinkedIn advice from gurus who can't back it up. 
5. And finally you give up when it doesn’t click instantly.

It can be an insanely brutal process. 
But if you stick at it...

This happens too:

✅ You analyse what actually gets results and learn.
✅ You restart and apply the lessons to go again.
✅ You then double down on what works for you. 
✅ Then the growth starts happening.

🏆 And you become a recognised name in your space. 

It’s a wild ride.

And the algorithm is always evolving.
So you’re constantly forced to adjust.

But that’s why LinkedIn rewards those who stick it out.

How’s LinkedIn going for you right now?

LinkedIn is full of job updates and education. 

So, today I'm a do it differently... 

I've grown from 5,000 to 153,371 followers in 2 years. 

And I've not really shared much about who I actually am. 

So here's my introduction. 
(without info about my job hehehe) 

I'm Josh. 
I live in London. 
I like silly lil tattoos.
I constsantly question myself.
I have a black cat called Lausse. 
I'm am 25 years young (26 soon oop).
I got a black belt in taekwondo at 14.  
I prefer 1 deep convo over 10 small talks. 
I love hearing and telling terrible dad jokes. 
I'm currently in my mid twenties running crisis. 
I did a degree in entrepreneurship and innovation. 
I have a mild obsession with Chess (yet I kinda suck) 
I was ranked 3rd in the UK at football freestyle at 17.
It's taken 2 years, but I feel surrounded by the best people. 

I would now love to get to know you guys more :) 

Drop 1 random fact about you in the comments ! 

Have a great Friday legendsss

So I think I'm about to do the most stupid thing I've done. 

And I'm really not ready for it... 

Running 10k every single day for 30 days.

Here's the story: 

A few days ago I was chatting to my good friend Angus Parker about my total running KM for the year. 
I had done just under 700km. 

(Not bad for something I've been doing just for my silly lil brain health) 

But something annoyed me... 

I was 300km off of a wonderfully round 1000km. 

I then thought "how hard could that be in one month?" 
After few quite delusional afterthoughts, I thought why not go for it. 

And so... December300 is born. 

10k a day, every single day, until the end of the month. 

Now I don't just want this to be a personal challenge for me. 

I want to invite anyone else who wants to do it with me! 

If you're game, feel free to comment "Join" on this post. 
And I'll pop you a DM with the link :) 

I also want to make this super fun, so...

If you're:

- London based
- Don't want to do the full challenge 
- But would like to join me on one 10k run

Feel free to drop me a DM ! 

If running isn't your jam, but you'd still like to support. 
I'm also raising money for Shelter UK.

Super nice cause and so important, especially around these cold winter months. 
Feel free to donate here: https://lnkd.in/eSWvNyiU

Anything is genuinely deeply appreciated <3 

I have no idea how this will be for me tbh. 
But MAN I am excited for the challenge. 

Because for me, December is usually a slow month. 

So I'm ready to fully send it 

Am I gunna snap my hamstring within the first few days? 
What do you think? XD

Let's get it people ! 

♻️ Any repost to spread the message would be amazinggg

Ps recognise anyone from my current running squad?? 🔥

Stop wasting hours building presentations manually.

(There's an AI that does it in minutes)

If you're still wrestling with PowerPoint and GPT...
You're making it harder than it needs to be.

There's a smarter way that you may not have discovered:

Gamma

Think: AI presentation wizard that actually gets it right.

Here's what makes it different:

✅ Describe your idea → Complete deck appears
✅ Professional design without the design skills
✅ Smart content suggestions based on your topic
✅ Export ready for any platform

And has a brand new agent called Gamma Agent 
Which genuinely speeds up time so much!  

Here's how to build your next presentation with Gamma
And take advantage of the new Gamma agent: 

1. Head to gamma.app and create your free account
2. Hit "Generate" and describe your presentation
3. Add context → "Sales pitch for new consulting service"
4. Set your preferences (slide count, tone, length)
5. Pick from their curated theme library
6. Choose visual style that matches your brand
7. Review the AI-generated structure
8. Make quick edits using the Gamma agent
(I will legit just use the agent to sharpen a lot of the slides). 
9. Export and you're ready to rock and roll. 

In 10 minutes, you've got something that would've taken hours in PowerPoint.

Pro tip:

The more specific your initial prompt, the better Gamma performs.

Instead of "marketing presentation"...
Try "Q4 marketing strategy review for executive team focusing on social media ROI"

This is how I handle my presentations now.
No more fighting with templates or spending ages on slide layouts.

Have you used Gamma? If so, what do you use it for? 
Let me know below!
