How an executive developed authority
A dormant profile with a job title in the headline. Twelve months later, the firm's largest source of inbound conversation.

The situation
What we did
We rewrote the profile around a single claim the partner could defend. Then a weekly rhythm: one substantive post drawn from real client situations, one short observation, and fifteen minutes of comments on other people's posts. Everything written in the partner's own phrasing, approved in a batch every Friday.
What happened
Followers grew fivefold, but the number that mattered was different: inbound direct messages from qualified buyers became a weekly event rather than an annual surprise.
Same problem, different firm?
If this looks like your situation, the first call is a diagnosis rather than a pitch.
