The four weeks
- Week 1Assistant & research
Voice file and three pillars
Feed your assistant ten pieces you've written and have it write your voice file. Pick three pillars: what you do, what you believe, what you've seen. Every post belongs to one.
You'll need: Your voice file
The toolOne €20 assistant (Claude Pro / ChatGPT Plus / Google AI Pro)
$20/mo · checked 2026-09
The one subscription every size needs. Pick by the work you do most: Claude for writing-heavy, ChatGPT for breadth, Gemini for the Workspace bundle.

Write and schedule a week at a time
Five posts a week, written in one sitting from the pillars, scheduled in advance. A LinkedIn-specific tool earns its slot when the channel is your top one; otherwise the general scheduler does.
The toolSupergrow
Starter $19/mo monthly, $16 annual (7-day trial) · checked 2026-09
Only with the trigger: LinkedIn is your top channel and you want a $19 tool instead of a $69 one. The challenger to Taplio and the one we'd trial first for a LinkedIn-led solo consultant.

The comment habit
Twenty minutes a day commenting on ten people your clients follow — real sentences, no AI-generated 'great post'. This is where the profile visits come from; posting alone doesn't do it.

Convert conversations into calls
Every DM that turns into a call gets a notetaker without a visible bot, and a next step in the CRM. Review Friday: which pillar produced the conversations?
The toolGranola
$0 (Business $14/user/mo) · checked 2026-09
The notetaker for people who hate notetakers. Quiet, desktop-first, and the one we'd pick for sales calls with nervous prospects.
