for transparency, here's what we're learned about what will make contents go viral so far (human effort and quality control):
1. YC: trending topics; sharing failure in public
2. Career decisions → Document your career pivots; they resonate because everyone's navigating transitions.
3. Personal story, e.g. moving country → because they signal ambition and momentum—and you can tell them again in 6 months.
4. Good hooks in general, e.g. cultural differences → Cultural differences are natural hooks; they're unexpected and inherently shareable.
5. Real event sharing → Real events (conferences, launches, wins) get amplified because people cheer for actual momentum, not vibes.
6. Showing hustling: meeting new people, having lots of coffee chats etc.
7. Sharing personal success (Awards ≥ events = personal win)
8. an image of yourself will 3x impression
9. a nice personal story will 3x impression
10. what goes viral on one platform can go viral on another platform
11. what goes viral will go viral again.
We're building Posting Machine, we make sure your linkedin posts go viral, grow your account, and find your ICPs from those that engaged with your contents.
We're looking for early customers and design partners to help us iterate fast. If you are a b2b saas founder who values linkedin as a sales pipeline, we'd love to talk to you!

continuing -- so you don't have to spend time on Linkedin and do chores like ideating, posting, replying to comments, analyzing ppl's profiles etc.
This is the tldr of social selling: If someone's liked your LinkedIn content, then if you reach out to them it's no longer cold outreach. It's ~warm outreach, response rate will go up by 80%.
We don't post AI slops because we spend a large amount of time learning what's going to work and what doesn't. And we put a lot of human care into the posts for our clients to make sure that it works.
While most content agency asks for $3000-$5000 per month, we price at $499/mo, but we're offering an early bird of $149 per month.
Me and Hank both used to work at YC startups, and we also have YC company founders as our initial clients. Would love to hear what you think!
