What they needed

A public program has to inform a broad community of founders, investors and partners, stay accurate and move through approvals. They needed a steady weekly rhythm of posts the client could approve quickly.

What we did

Each week we curated news, wrote three main posts plus posts for X, and scheduled them on LinkedIn and X.

Every month we reported on followers, engagement and top posts, and shifted the mix toward LinkedIn as it outperformed.

We delivered the work as a white-label team through the program's agency partner.

What happened

  • LinkedIn engagement rate reached 9.7% in August 2023, up 56% from July.
  • Q3 2023 added 220 followers, 123 of them on LinkedIn, and 5 of the 6 top posts were on LinkedIn.
  • By the third year, the client approved our weekly copy with zero edits for weeks at a time.
