I help Agency Owners, Coaches, and Consultants Join the Top 1% on LinkedIn in 90 Days to Earn High-Ticket Clients | Feat. in Forbes | 500+ clients | 2x D1 Basketball Conference Champion

In March 2020, I left a $22,500/yr job working for UConn Men’s Basketball.

I bet on myself.

On paper, I was on track to build an incredible career with a championship program.

However, my heart wasn’t in it anymore.

6 months prior to leaving, I started a simple Instagram page.

I called it Unleash The Knowledge.

Most people thought I was crazy but I saw the long-term vision.

4 years later, I run a multi-6-figure business from anywhere in the world, all off my laptop.

My Instagram page is now at 127,000 followers, all from starting from 0.

I’ve worked with 500+ authors, coaches, consultants, and founders.

Some of my past well-known clients include: 

- Rick Ross, Grammy-nominated Rapper
- Jim McKelvey. Co-Founder of Square
- Kara Goldin, Founder of HINT Water
- Terry Virts, NASA Astronaut

Today, I help Founders, Consultants, and C-Suite join the top 1% on LinkedIn in 90 days.

Creating Magnetic Thought Leaders on LinkedIn | 500+ clients served | Want to become magnetic to your clients? → Head to my featured section

Someone asked me today why building a LinkedIn presence matters.

So I showed him this:

Two CEOs in the same industry:

CEO #1:
• Posts 2x weekly about industry insights
• Shares real leadership moments
• Engages with market trends

CEO #2:
• Hasn't posted in 8 months
• Basic profile
• "Too busy" for LinkedIn

When a problem arises that both CEOs can solve, who do you think gets the first call?

Not because CEO #1 was better.
But because they were visible.

They were trusted.
They were top of mind.

Here's what most leaders miss:

While you're "too busy" for LinkedIn:

• Your competitors are closing deals
• Potential partners are finding others
• Opportunities are going elsewhere

The market doesn't wait.
It rewards those who show up.

Every day you're not building your presence is a day:

• Someone else is becoming the go-to voice
• Another leader is building trust
• Opportunities are choosing others

Think about it:

Would you want to do business with someone who:

A) Regularly shares valuable insights
B) Has been silent for months

Your absence is costing you more than you think.

Want to learn the exact system I use to help executives build authority in just 30 mins a day?

Founders tell me they don’t have time to create content, but then there is this CEO.

This CEO manages:
• 147 employees
• 8-figure revenue
• 3 product launches
• 2 board meetings monthly

Yet his LinkedIn drives 40% of their deals.

His secret?

He doesn't create content.
He captures it.

Got a Monday team meeting?
→ That's 4 posts worth of insights

Solving a client problem?
→ That's 2 posts of valuable lessons

Making a tough decision?
→ That's 3 posts about leadership

You're already doing the work.
You're just not leveraging it.

The truth about LinkedIn:
• Creation takes hours
• Capturing takes minutes
• Results are the same

While others spend Sunday night "creating content"
You're just documenting what you already do.

This isn't about adding to your workload.
It's about maximizing what you're already doing.

Want to see the exact system I use to help busy executives turn their daily work into powerful content?

Check the link in the comments.

"I'll start posting when I have something worth saying"

This is what a CEO told me last week.

Meanwhile, his competitor has been documenting their journey for 90 days straight.

Guess what happened?

• Their team size doubled
• Partners started reaching out
• Speaking opportunities landed in their inbox

Not because they're smarter.
Not because they have better content.

But because they started.

Here's what most leaders miss about LinkedIn:

Perfect content isn't the goal.
Presence is.

Every time you:
• Solve a problem → That's content
• Make a decision → That's content
• Learn a lesson → That's content

You create more valuable content in one day than most post in a month.

You're just not sharing it.

While you wait for the "perfect moment":
• Opportunities go elsewhere
• Relationships form without you
• Your insights stay hidden

The best time to start was yesterday.
The second best time is today.

A large audience means nothing if they’re not paying attention.

That was the problem our client faced, and here’s how we fixed it: 

And this wasn’t just any client… 

- He’s a high-ranking attorney at a global tech company.
- A speaker and bestselling author
- And someone with an established social media presence.

Yet, something was missing.

His content wasn’t producing the right results.

So, when he came to us in November 2024, he had two clear goals:

✅  Promote his book
✅  Increase engagement on his posts

His missing piece? Positioning.

So, we got to work.

📌 We optimized his profile to appeal to his target audience.
📌 Crafted content that spoke to them and showcased his authority.

And what happened next?

His engagement skyrocketed. New doors opened.

And today, he’s in conversations for 7-figure roles. 

Not because he chased opportunities, but because they started chasing him.

That’s the power of a magnetic personal brand.

And messages like this?

They’re why we do what we do.

If you're a business owner, founder, or C-Suite, and ready to take your personal brand to the next level on LinkedIn, head to my Featured Section to learn how we can help you become magnetic 🧲

I’ve been studying personal branding for 6 years.

Want to know the biggest mistake executives make?

They try to be everything to everyone.

The math is simple:
• Generic content = Generic results
• Generic results = Missed opportunities
• Missed opportunities = Lost revenue

Here's what actually works:

Pick ONE problem you solve better than anyone.
Tell ONE story that shows why.
Speak to ONE specific audience.

Example:
Instead of "I help businesses grow"

Try "I help SaaS founders reduce their churn by 15%”

The riches are in the niches.

Your expertise isn't general.
Why is your content?

Why do so many businesses fail?

Because they lean too hard into their expertise and forget one tiny detail: 

A business is supposed to make money.

I see it all the time. Founders, executives, authors, consultants, you name it.

They’re stars in their field, but they struggle with two key things:

1️⃣ Marketing themselves
2️⃣ Prioritizing profitability

In the past few years, I’ve worked with over 500 professionals...

So I’ve seen this play out hundreds of times.

Take Alan for example. He built a great career in corporate.

He’s also a college professor and now, a consultant, booking speaking gigs, too.

Alan had the expertise.

But he didn’t know how to package his knowledge in an attractive way to sell to corporations.

His book was selling, and people showed interest in getting his help.

But, he didn't have a clear way to convey how he can help them.

So, together we developed a solution.

Since his business model was B2B, I knew LinkedIn was the key.

Here’s what we did:

✅ Identified his target audience
✅ Optimized his LinkedIn profile to attract his ideal clients
✅ Built a content strategy that put him on their radar

And within 90 days, Alan’s consulting business went from $0 to $57.5k.

There’s no secret sauce to this either.

Just a proven framework that works. Every time.

If you’re an expert struggling to scale due to your lack of clarity with marketing messaging or know-how on LinkedIn, chances are you’re facing the same issues Alan did.

📲 Shoot me a DM and I will give you a personalized plan to scale your consulting business and thought leadership brand on LinkedIn.

PS: If this post speaks to you, don’t drag your feet.

Because when you’re in the same position six months from now, burning yourself out just to make ends meet…

You’ll wish you acted sooner.

You don't want to miss anymore missed opportunities.

Now is the perfect time to create momentum.

Controversial take on LinkedIn:

The posts that feel most uncomfortable to share...
Are exactly what you should be posting.

Example:

A tech founder almost didn't share about:
• Losing their biggest client
• Having to lay off 5 people
• Nearly missing payroll

He shared it anyway.

The response?
• 3 investors reached out
• 2 clients shared similar stories
• His team's trust deepened

Why?

Because vulnerability isn't weakness.
It's relatability at scale.

Think about it:

When you share:
• Perfect wins → People admire you
• Real struggles → People trust you

Everyone's fighting similar battles.
They're just pretending they're not.

Your:
• Failures → Are someone's lessons
• Struggles → Are someone's comfort
• Journey → Is someone's roadmap

Stop trying to look successful.
Start being useful.

The moment you switch from:
"Here's why I'm great"
to
"Here's what I learned"

Everything changes.

Want to see how I help leaders turn their real experiences into magnetic content?

See my comment below 👇

"We paid them for 6 months and saw zero results."

I hear this from business leaders every week about their marketing agency experience.

The problem isn't marketing. It's broken promises.

The typical agency playbook: 

• Flashy presentations 
• Vague "strategy" documents 
• Monthly reports full of vanity metrics 
• Excuses why results "take time"

Meanwhile, your competitors are gaining ground daily.

Real example: Joe, marine veteran turned keynote speaker, came to me after wasting $18K on an agency that delivered nothing but excuses.

Within 4 days of signing with us: 
→ Completely optimized his LinkedIn profile 
→ Delivered 4 pieces of high-impact content for approval 
→ Mapped out a 90-day visibility strategy for speaking opportunities

The game plan: 
• Position him as the go-to leadership voice in his niche 
• Target decision-makers at corporations booking keynotes 
• Convert his military experience into magnetic business insights 
• Build a content engine that works while he's on stage

The difference? 
• Measurable weekly progress 
• Direct access to expertise (not account managers) 
• Systems built for speed, not billable hours 
• Results before renewal conversations

Stop funding agencies that move at glacial pace. 
Start demanding real results on timelines that matter.

Success loves speed.

All it takes is 14 Days to transform your LinkedIn presence.

That’s right—14 days to go from zero to hero.

From crickets to conversions.
Ghost town to gold mine.

However you want to phrase it, that’s all it takes.

And it should really only take you an hour a day for those two weeks.

Here’s the game plan:

🔮 Optimize your profile
🎯 Identify your ideal audience
📅 Publish content that solves their problems

14 days to transform your business and amplify your personal brand on LinkedIn.

Are you ready to take control?

PS: 👇Comment “14” and I’ll send you my 14-Day LinkedIn Leads Challenge.

It’ll show you how to optimize your profile for client attraction to grow your personal brand and business—no long hours online, no paid ads, just results.

The biggest lie successful business owners tell themselves: 

"I'll focus on my LinkedIn presence when I have more time."

This is the #1 objection I hear from leaders making $20K+ monthly.

The irony? 

The leaders who "don't have time" for personal branding are the same ones spending:

• 15+ hours in meetings weekly
• 10+ hours fighting fires
• 8+ hours on tasks they should delegate

Our solution: 
→ One 60-minute brainstorm session 
→ 2 weeks of content prepared in advance for approval 
→ 24/7 access to myself and my team 
→ Our team handling everything else

While you focus on running your business, we build your visibility machine.

Instead of chasing opportunities, opportunities chase you.

The truth about time: You don't need more of it. You need a system that multiplies it.

Your insights are too valuable to remain hidden while you're "too busy."

The market doesn't reward hard work. It rewards visible expertise.

Make time for visibility or make time for obscurity.

Success loves speed.

Everyone's flooding LinkedIn trying to close deals and land clients.

Meanwhile, my childhood friend who runs a sales team has been struggling to find hungry reps.

He has been searching the internet for his next hungry reps, spending hours sifting through job boards and LinkedIn profiles.

I told him he's looking at LinkedIn all wrong.

It's not just another job board - it's a talent attraction system when you have:

• An optimized profile that speaks to top performers
• Storytelling content that shows your sales culture
• A strategic outbound DM approach that builds relationships

The proof?

I showed him a sales leader who's been doing exactly this.

His DMs? Full of hungry reps asking about opportunities.

It clicked.

While everyone's using LinkedIn to sell something...
The real opportunity is attracting talent through storytelling.

Think about it:
Companies post job listings.
Leaders post stories.

And here's the thing - stories attract better talent than any job post.

When you share:

• Real war stories → You attract battle-tested reps
• Growth moments → You attract learners
• Team wins → You attract team players 

The best sales reps aren't on job boards.
They're silently watching leaders who inspire them.

Made me realize - LinkedIn isn't just a sales tool.
It's a talent magnet when used right.

Every industry has two types of experts: 

Those who ARE authorities and those who are RECOGNIZED as authorities.

The painful truth? 

Most business leaders fall into the first category only.

You've invested years building expertise but:

• Your competitors get quoted in industry publications
• They're invited to speak at the events you attend
• Prospects know their names before knowing yours
• Their content dominates your LinkedIn feed

The gap isn't knowledge. It's strategic visibility.

Our solution: 

→ Authority positioning assessment 
→ Strategic topic alignment with your revenue goals 
→ Thought leadership content map that showcases your unique perspective 
→ Distribution system that puts your insights in front of decision-makers daily

While others chase trends, we build your permanent authority position.

The market doesn't reward what you know. It rewards who knows what you know.

Your expertise deserves recognition. Your insights deserve an audience. 

Your business deserves the opportunities that come from being the recognized leader.

Stop being the industry's best-kept secret. 
Start being its most visible authority.

Success loves speed.

Spend at least one hour a day building your dream.

No excuses.

This can be:
- an email
- networking
- a social post
- a YouTube video
- a podcast interview
- research and planning
- creating an informational guide

Just choose one and do the work.

You will look back in 3, 6, 12 months and be amazed at the progress.
