Getting you inbound leads through Content Design

I ran an agency for 6 years and invisibility nearly killed it (twice).  

We 100% relied on word-of-mouth marketing:

- Leads from friends and family (not even kidding)
- Leads from former and current clients
- Leads through competitors

We took on what we could get.

Sometimes we skyrocketed. Often we struggled.

The feast and famine cycle was real.

And it was painfully frustrating.

As a business owner, I didn't have:

- Time and focus on growth
- Time to take care of my team
- Time to generate leads myself

I was consistently hustling and putting out fires.

When I pivoted in 2022, I chose a different strategy:

→ Creating content to build a reputation and presence
→ Creating content to show the world my offering
→ Creating content to generate leads every week

At least, that was the plan.

It took me months to do it:

I started with text posts. Then I added visuals. Then I added carousels. Then I 'designed' my content. Every upgrade increased my growth and revenue.

This led me to craft a new solution:

Content Design for LinkedIn. 

Since then, I've helped clients build recognizable brands that attract and sell: 

- Matt Barker 2X’d his post views, attracted higher paying clients, and 2X’d product sales within 2 months of working together.

- Mollie Cox made $16k (next to her full-time job) within 2 months of working together.

- Pascalle Bergman's revenue went up by 73% after working together.

If that sounds good, there 3 ways I help founders, CEOs, and creators attract leads on LinkedIn: 

1. Content Design done-for-you (ghostwriting + content designs)

2. 1:1 Content Design coaching to attract your ideal audience

3. My first-ever Content Design cohort in September

Brand Scaling Consultant

My posts started going viral when I added this: 

Infographics. 

But people avoid them because (they think) it’s hard.
 
Here’s a dead simple structure I use: 

1. Start with the hook 
– "How to" or "How I" works well 
– Or call out your ICP with a quote
 
2. Pick one clear topic 
– One problem, one angle, one outcome
 
3. Break the idea into steps 
– 3-10 actions that solve the problem 
– Steps should feel like a natural sequence
 
4. Add structure 
– Give each step its own section 
– Create hierarchy so the reader knows where to look
 
5. Add navigation 
– Use numbers or arrows 
– Guide the reader through the flow
 
6. Add context 
– 1–3 short lines that explain each step 
– Use the language your ideal audience uses
 
7. Improve readability 
– Simple words, short sentences 
– Contrast and spacing
 
8. Fill the remaining space with value 
– Add small tips, examples, or clarifications 
– Be creative: there’s no such thing as perfect

Content Design that attracts your ideal audience

How I create viral infographics

How to turn 1 story into 3 different posts ↓

If you want to grow like crazy on LinkedIn: 

- Stay useful
- Monetize fast
- Post every day
- Stay in your lane
- Avoid anything personal
- Expand to every new platform
- Comment 100s of times per day
- Buy your way into new audiences

That’s the 0.001% path.

But most people don't want to be influencers.

They're trying to build a business.

And their clients want to work with REAL people:

Share what you love building (even if it’s small).
Share what you stand for (even if it’s unpopular).
Share the project that bombed (the one you hid).
Share what you refuse to tolerate (even when scary).
Share stuff that feels too Facebook (because it’s real).
Share how you screwed up big time (and had to own it).
Share the mistake you still think about (and learned from).

And publish more messy copy (unlike I've done here). 

Share you. 

Your feed is waiting for it. 

PS. I share deeper insights here (if you want them):

I just built a live sales page in 3 minutes.

(Using a meeting transcript)

My goal: create a course sales page.

Here’s what it created (automatically):

- Strong sales heading
- Lead magnet buttons 
- Sign-up buttons
- Pain points
- Course modules 
- Value proposition
- Real results 
- Sales CTAs

All I did was: 

1. Copied a client meeting transcript
2. Opened Gamma.app
3. Pasted it into the editor
4. Asked it to create a “course sales page”

It was 95% ready.

Then I used Gamma's AI Agent to polish it.

Built in minutes without hiring devs or designers. 

Try it yourself: https://gamma.app

Gamma post - course page

Last weekend, 6 of my best friends came to visit me in Spain.

“You look terrible”, my friend jokingly said.

He was right. I was exhausted.

I had just finished my 1st cohort.

(AND my first paid workshop.)

But it was amazing.

Students learned:

1. How to create a solid ICP
2. How to position on LinkedIn
3. How to write copy that sells
4. How to create carousels
5. How to create infographics
6. How to “steal” and reframe
7. How to sell in DMs and calls
8. How to engage and grow

And I gave tons of my Figma templates away.

I’m gonna do it all again in January.

Fully recharged. Program upgrade. More accountability. And tons of resources. 

(Including community access in February 👀)

Interesting?
