The roast

Tony promises to end the feast and famine cycle for B2B firms, which is a bold claim coming from a guy whose entire business model relies on convincing people that a 0.20% engagement rate is a growth engine. He’s essentially a professional LinkedIn gardener, spending all day pruning 50 posts a month just to cultivate a crop of digital weeds.

About Tony

I get a real buzz from helping B2B firms turn social selling into a growth engine for their businesses. Using LinkedIn in ways that mean the "Feast & Famine cycle" is no longer something that keeps you awake at night. Highly relevant for management consultancies, recruitment agencies and other professional services and SaaS businesses. If you would like to bring more predictability and consistency to your sales funnel, getting your social selling strategy right is the key to achieving this. A few examples to help you picture what good looks like: 🔹 For a newly launched consulting business, we grew their prospect audience by 798 people in the first 3 months, generated sales meetings from week 1 and set up a webinar and sales call funnel that resulted in us producing 80% of their revenues in their first years in business. 🔹 For an established consulting business, we grew their prospect audience by 902 people in the first 3 months and transformed their in-person client prospect events from having ~30 attendees to having 100+ attendees (and subsequently being able to run them more frequently, too). 🔹 For an established recruitment business, we helped them launch into a new fast-growth sector in a country they had never worked in before. We grew their prospect audience by 936 people in 3 months and then secured client meetings and speaking engagements from this audience. 🔹 For a new SaaS business, we grew their prospect audience by 954 people in the first 3 months and then secured hundreds of trial users and trialists' feedback to successfully launch the business. So, my question for you is this: do you have a well-defined B2B audience that your firm wants to win work from? If you answered "yes", it'd make sense for us to have a chat. I'm happy to share what works. You're welcome to email me on 📩 tony.restell@social-hire.com 📩 or you can book a call either via my profile here, or via the Social-Hire.com homepage.

  • Not liking the look of this - anyone else having this foisted upon them?! Here's what I can't fathom out: - I'm not connected to the founder of Gymshark, so this has no business being in my notifications. - The words "Why Megan Thee Stallion is Gymshark’s first celebrity ambassador" don't appear anywhere in the post when I click through to it... - ... but nor does the post appear to be sponsored. So is it a LinkedIn editor who's written this headline and somehow inserted into our notifications? Or is there a new feature where you can pay to have a post inserted into notifications (but th

  • Interesting alert I just saw that LinkedIn is rolling out three Premium Company Page tiers, with the rollout happening between now and January 2027. It's noteworthy that LinkedIn is effectively pushing the idea that leadership teams should be proactively posting here (and hence including tracking of key leaders' posts as part of the premium company page offering). For smaller businesses, I suspect external scheduling tools connected to Founders' & Directors' accounts will achieve that goal without needing to pay for one of the more expensive company page premium tiers.

  • A couple of weeks ago, I posted about two firms that were already top recommendations on Google - less than a month after work had started on their AEO. I promised to write a fuller breakdown of how that's being achieved (and the part that LinkedIn plays in getting results), so that's what I'll be covering in today's newsletter.
