The Challenge

Jonathan Green was already running a successful business as an email and affiliate marketer with amazing clients. But he had launched a new AI business and needed a completely different way to find traffic and customers. His existing channels weren’t going to cut it for this new venture.

The Strategy

Jonathan’s transformation wasn’t about learning a few LinkedIn tricks. It required completely rethinking his approach to the platform — unlearning wrong assumptions and rebuilding from scratch with a proven system.

Profile Positioning

Jonathan’s profile was rebuilt to position him as an AI authority and trusted advisor. For someone with deep expertise in email marketing, the challenge was translating that credibility into a new vertical on a new platform. His profile was optimized to speak directly to the business owners he wanted to serve.

Content Angle

Rather than generic AI content, Jonathan focused on the intersection of AI and business growth — practical frameworks that his ideal customers were already searching for. His existing expertise in marketing gave him a unique angle that no pure-AI creator could match.

Authority Building

Jonathan leveraged Shanee’s newsletter, YouTube content, and pop-up audio rooms as models for his own authority strategy. He consumed the free content, joined the coaching, and implemented aggressively — turning LinkedIn into his primary business channel within months.

Posting Cadence

Consistent daily presence on LinkedIn, guided by the Growth Academy content framework. Jonathan went from zero LinkedIn strategy to making the platform the main focus of his entire business.

Offer Alignment

The content strategy was designed to attract the exact type of buyer Jonathan wanted — not just anyone, but the best customers he’d ever worked with. By leading with value and expertise, his LinkedIn presence pre-qualified buyers before they ever reached out.

In His Own Words

“I launched a new AI business and all of the numbers here are from that business. My revenue doubled by January. I already have a great business as an email and affiliate marketer and have amazing clients, but I wanted to build this business and needed a new way to find traffic.

I now have the BEST customers who I love working with and the business is going to do very well.

I don’t write a lot of testimonials because I need to wait for real results so that it’s more than just saying I like someone.

If Shanee decides you’re worth working with, you need to run to that opportunity. Shanee knows more about LinkedIn than anyone else on the platform. You’ll make back your investment. She’s a kind person who wants the best for the people she works with.

If she offers you a chance to have her as your coach, wire that money as fast as you can. You don’t want to lose that slot.”
