How it works

Step 1: Set the company content strategy

Define the shared foundation every team member builds from.

Positioning: the one sentence that captures what the company helps people do.
ICP: the exact companies and personas the content should reach.
Content pillars: 3-4 broad themes the whole team writes within.

Step 2: Assign personal content pillars

Give every team member 3-4 pillars inside the company strategy.

Map each team member to a stakeholder segment (founders, engineers, marketers, sales).
Assign 3-4 pillars per person that reflect their expertise and audience.
Make sure the team's combined pillars cover every stakeholder in the buying committee.

Step 3: Use the company page as amplification

Skip the company page as a primary channel until scale justifies it.

Use the company page for:
- Hiring posts
- Reposts of team member content
- Engagement with team posts and mentions
Personal profiles do the heavy lifting since they get 5-8x more engagement.

Step 4: Build the content creation system

Make it easy for anyone to create without starting from a blank page.

Store evergreen templates in Notion.
Record and store every call transcript in Ergo.
Set up a company OS in GitHub with reusable content creation skills.
Store 2,000+ viral posts in Pinecone for RAG-powered ideation.
Give unlimited designer access to every team member.
Run a quarterly LinkedIn competition with cash prizes to keep momentum up.

Step 5: Capture engagement signals

Turn every team member's posts into captured leads.

Track connections and post engagement via Jungler.
Deanonymize website visitors via RB2B and Apollo.
Capture lead magnet form fills via Tally.
Route everything into one central database for enrichment.

Step 6: Enrich and qualify every lead

Filter the captured leads before sales gets involved.

Enrich contact and company data in Clay.
Cross-check HubSpot to exclude existing clients and closed-lost accounts.
Score every remaining lead into Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3.

Step 7: Convert with multi-channel outreach

Match the outreach channel to the tier.

Tier 1: cold calls via Nooks and LinkedIn DMs via HeyReach.
Tier 2: email sequences via Instantly and LinkedIn ads.
Tier 3: retargeting ads and nurture sequences.
Book meetings via Cal.com with the right rep.
