I've written over 7,500 LinkedIn posts and driven $1.5M+ for clients. But it took me 6 months to figure out how to write a GOOD post. So this morning I recorded a 16 minute video of me writing to show you how. Want it? Follow me. Like & Reply "Send". RT this tweet.

Your future clients don’t comment on posts. They watch you, though. Weeks, months, potentially years. Here's the truth why: --- Because they’re not ready to buy yet. They’re waiting to see which one of their objections you crush next. Or how you educate them on their pain point Or where you have taken other clients with your service. But when they are ready? --- They still won’t comment. Because they want you to remain their dirty little secret. They want to keep you from competitors. They don’t want people to know who they’re collaborating with. Do your future clients a favour: --- Don’t ask them to comment. Instead, ask them to DM you. Or apply. Or book a call. 100% private. Turn future clients from watchers to talkers. --- I share all this for £0 to help you become a better writer. All I ask: 1. Follow me @mattbarkercopy 2. RT so others can become better writers too --- ↓ p.s. if you want to use writing online to attract clients, join 1,536 creators who took the 3 Day Clients Come to You Challenge: http://mattbarker.xyz (it's free)

"Future clients" framing creates immediacy. The private DM strategy feels exclusive and valuable. The free offer at the end provides clear next steps.

I’ve posted on LinkedIn every weekday for 14 months. Took me 3 months to ‘figure it out’. So I put together a 7 day email course to save you 3 months and ‘figure it out’ instantly. Reply “course” and I’ll DM you the link to get it for FREE. (24hrs only, must be following me)

Why This Post Performed Well

This post succeeds by offering a shortcut to success. The personal proof (14 months posting) builds credibility. "3 months to figure it out" acknowledges the learning curve. Free offer creates urgency with 24-hour limit. Email course format promises organized learning. "Save you 3 months" quantifies the value clearly. Clear call to action ("Reply 'course'"). Follow requirement builds audience naturally. Time-saving promise appeals to busy professionals. Demonstrates understanding of audience pain points.
