first shared context demo booked
| Content Type | Purpose | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Problem-aware posts | Show you understand pain | 2x/week |
| Framework posts | Demonstrate methodology | 1x/week |
| Case study snippets | Social proof in feed | 1x/week |
| Contrarian takes | Pattern interrupt, reach | 1x/2 weeks |
| Personal stories | Build trust and likability | 1x/week |
Daily routine (20 min): Comment on 5 ICP prospect posts. React to 10 ICP accounts. Reply to 3 comments on your own posts with depth.
Comment quality matters. Add insight, share a related experience, or ask a genuine question. "Great post!" does nothing.
Only DM after engaging 2-3 times. They should recognize your name.
Transition when they show buying signals: ask about pricing, describe a problem you solve, ask "how does this work?", or share timeline pressure.
Transition phrase: "This sounds like something worth a 15-min conversation. Want me to send a calendar link?"
Day 0: Connection request (personalized note, under 300 chars)
Day 1: Accept - no message (patience)
Day 3: First DM - value-first, reference context
Day 7: Follow-up - share relevant resource
Day 14: Social proof follow-up
Day 30: Final low-pressure check-in
STOP: After 3 unanswered follow-ups - move to content nurture
Personalized connection requests get 40% higher acceptance rates.

Voice notes get 2-3x higher response rates. Use for Tier 1 prospects. Keep 30-60 seconds, say their name, reference something specific, end with one question. Video DMs (45-90 sec) with screen-shares are even harder to ignore.

Tag every meeting source in CRM: "LinkedIn - inbound DM", "LinkedIn - outbound DM", "LinkedIn - content reply", "LinkedIn - Sales Navigator." Track first touch (content/connection), influence touch (multiple post engagements), and conversion touch (meeting trigger).
LinkedIn is home base. Multi-platform amplifies reach and deepens trust.
| Platform | Role | Content Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Primary pipeline | Frameworks, case studies, DMs | |
| X/Twitter | Thought leadership | Hot takes, threads, real-time commentary |
| YouTube | Deep trust | Long-form tutorials, interviews, case studies |
| Newsletter | Owned audience | Weekly insights, deeper frameworks |
One core idea becomes 5+ pieces: YouTube long-form > LinkedIn post (key takeaway) > X thread (numbered insights) > Newsletter section > LinkedIn carousel > Short-form video clip (60-90 sec).
LinkedIn: PDF carousels = highest reach. External links = -60% reach (put in comments). Dwell time matters more than likes. Specific details (company names, exact metrics) get 3-4x more reach than generic framework posts.
X/Twitter: Build-in-public narratives. Quote-tweets with real insight. Engage in reply threads of 10K-100K follower accounts.
YouTube: 92% of marketers maintaining or increasing video investment. Repurpose clips to LinkedIn and X.
47% of B2B marketers plan to increase data-driven thought leadership investment in 2026. Enterprise buyers spend only 17% of their purchase journey meeting vendors. 84% of C-level buyers are influenced by social media.
| Tier | Content Type | Effort | Impact |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | Original research / data | High | Highest |
| Tier 2 | Contrarian POV with evidence | Medium | High |
| Tier 3 | Framework / methodology posts | Medium | High |
| Tier 4 | Industry commentary | Low | Medium |
| Tier 5 | Curated insights with opinion | Low | Medium |
For companies under $1M ARR, founder brand is the highest-ROI GTM channel (LinkedIn organic: 113% ROAS benchmark).
Cadence: 4-5 LinkedIn posts/week. 1 long-form piece/week. Daily 20-min engagement. 1 carousel or thread/week.
Content pillars (pick 3-4): Behind-the-scenes building. Industry problems + your POV. Customer stories. Tactical how-to. Personal stories revealing values.
Company pages get ~5% feed allocation vs. ~65% for personal profiles. Employee advocacy is the primary brand distribution channel.
Employee-shared posts get 2.75x more impressions and 5x more engagement than company page posts. Only 3% of employees share, yet they drive 30% of total company engagement.
Phase 1 - Activate (Month 1): Identify 5-10 already-active employees. Optimize their profiles (Section 1). Run 30-min training.
Phase 2 - Enable (Month 2-3): Weekly content suggestions with ready-to-share snippets. Encourage personal reflections over generic reshares. Shared Slack channel for ideas.
Phase 3 - Scale (Month 4+): Track participation per employee. Recognize advocates. Advanced social selling training.
Use for credibility validation (prospects check after seeing employee content), job postings, LinkedIn ad retargeting base, and pinned foundational content.
Pod warning: If using engagement pods, exit immediately. Recovery takes several weeks as trust scoring recalibrates.
