The roast
Alex, you’ve posted 40 times this month to convince people you can turn LinkedIn into a revenue stream, yet you have the engagement rate of an unattended funeral. It takes a special kind of failure to turn a massive follower count into a digital paperweight that only prints "seen.
About Alex
I didn't start on LinkedIn. I spent years building an audience on Twitch as a gaming creator. I understood platforms, content, and community, but I had no business to show for it. When I pivoted to LinkedIn, I had zero followers, zero clients, and zero proof. Now I've built 40,000+ followers and a six-figure business. No paid ads. No outbound cold email. No hiring. Just a system. That system is what I now teach at The Growth Innovator. But here's what most people get wrong about LinkedIn: they treat it like a content platform. Post consistently, get followers, hope clients find you. That's not a system. The LinkedIn Growth System is different. It's built on five pillars working together: → Content that positions you as the go-to expert in your category → Profile that converts visitors into inbound leads→ LinkedIn Live that builds real-time authority and community → Newsletter that nurtures and deepens trust → DMs that close conversations into clients I've coached 270+ founders through this system. The ones doing $5K–$30K/month who want to scale to six figures organically, that's exactly who it's built for. At The Growth Innovator, I run: A weekly newsletter breaking down what's actually working on LinkedIn A free community for founders building with the system A group cohort program (live, with me, implementing in real time) 1:1 private coaching for founders who want it done faster A done-for-you service for founders who want their LinkedIn run for them If you want more followers, I'm probably not your person. If you want LinkedIn to be the reason you hit your revenue goal this year, let's talk. DM me "SYSTEM" or visit alexcolhoun.com/coaching

For the past 3 years, I’ve been building a one person business on LinkedIn, and it's become my full-time job. I’m grateful for that every single day. At the same time, this path has carried a lot of uncertainty. I can still remember 2 years ago thinking I might need to go get a 9 to 5 job because I had no clue how things would play out. Building this kind of business takes a long time. It takes a lot of effort, many nights of zero sleep, 15+ hour long work days, and faith that the work will mean something later down the road. There were seasons where I kept showing up without seeing mu

Most LinkedIn masterclasses are 90 minutes of slides and zero implementation. This Friday I'm running the opposite: 30 seats, hands on, and you leave with the exact LinkedIn system I'm using right now to sign clients. This is exactly what we're using right now. Here's what we're covering: 1. The content structure pulling inbound DMs from qualified buyers in 2026 2. The DM flow I use to turn a profile view into a booked call without useless cold pitching 3. The LinkedIn Live + newsletter loop that compounds your audience while you run the business side You'll build pieces of it live, o
