I’m the CEO & Founder of Rise & Run Media, where we help B2B brands and professionals turn LinkedIn into a predictable growth engine, not just a posting platform.

After years of watching great companies struggle to stand out online, I built a system that blends smart strategy, scroll-stopping content, and high-intent paid campaigns to help experts get visible, stay memorable, and attract the right opportunities.

Today, we partner with B2B leaders, founders, and service-based teams who want to:

✔ Build authority in their industry
✔ Generate qualified inbound leads
✔ Create content that actually converts
✔ Scale their presence without wasting time or ad spend

If you’re ready to grow on LinkedIn with a strategy that’s built for real business outcomes, not vanity metrics, let’s connect.

A lot of people think content is about posting more.

It’s actually about saying the right thing, the right way, to the right audience.

Last week’s work with my client Jordan M. Wilson, CFP® was focused on translating real financial expertise into content that feels natural, not forced.

This is the part you don’t always see, but it’s where the growth actually happens.

Turning B2B LinkedIn into a Revenue System | DM Sequences, ABM Retargeting, and Full-Funnel Ad Strategy | Founder @ Rise & Run Media

The best LinkedIn strategies in 2026 don’t feel like strategies. 
They feel like conversations.

Because trust > transactions.

Most B2B brands either rise fast or run long, rarely both. 

We built Rise & Run Media for the ones who refuse to choose, turning visibility into systems that compound instead of fade.

B2B brands don’t have a "growth" problem.

They have a focus problem.
Too many priorities.
Too many tactics.
Too much noise.

But here’s what actually drives sustainable LinkedIn growth:

→ Clarity beats complexity.
→ Systems beat scattered effort.
→ Consistency beats short-term momentum spikes.

Not hacks.
Not virality chasing.
Not posting “more.”

Just focused execution, done repeatedly.

That’s the difference between being visible and being trusted, and it’s exactly how we operate at Rise & Run Media.

Grow Your B2B Brand on LinkedIn

Most LinkedIn DMs fail not because the offer is bad.

They fail because people treat LinkedIn like a cold-call platform instead of a relationship space.

Because assets aren’t sales tools.
They’re conversation starters.

Everyone wants reach.
Everyone wants leads.
Everyone wants “what works.”

Very few brands want to do the part that actually creates it:

Give first.

→ Real value.
→ Clear thinking.
→ Repeatable systems.

That’s how we help B2B brands turn LinkedIn into a predictable growth channel not a guessing game.
