My story
Here's the difference between me in 2023 and me today.
"
The Super Malter trap
I was a Super Malter. And that's not what took me to €75K/4 months.
They're Super Malters, I'll never manage to be like them…
OFF MARKET VS THE MARKET
They sold you the platforms as THE solution. Nobody told you that 95% of gigs don't even go through them. They go through the "off-market".
Public market
95%
of freelancers for 5% of the gigs.
Off market
5%
of freelancers for 95% of the gigs.
"
WHAT NOBODY EVER TOLD YOU
And there's a wall between the two. Nobody shows you the door. Here's where it is.
They sent you here
5% of the market
What you're about to discover
95% of the market
What's next shows you how
The door isn't where you're looking for it.
THE FRAMEWORK
Traffic. Marketing. Product. Miss one, and it stalls.
"
Part 2
They told you: get better. Wrong. Your skill is already enough, it's your offer that's costing you. We rebuild it here.
The offer
Same skill. Different packaging. What people are willing to pay for your time has nothing to do with each other.
Skill
What you know how to do.
You already master it. Not the point here.
Packaging
How you describe it to the market.
The promise. The positioning. The proof.
Offer
What clients buy.
And therefore, what they're willing to pay.
One and the same freelance copywriter
Without packaging
"I do freelance copywriting."
€350 / day. A commodity among 10,000.
With packaging
"I turn your LinkedIn posts into a client machine."
€1,500 / day. Irreplaceable.
The skill is the same. You already know how to deliver it.
What we build here is the packaging.
The value equation
Alex Hormozi summed it up in one equation.
"
Listen to the market
The market talks all the time. It's already telling you what it wants to buy: your job is to really listen, not to guess from your corner.
"
You can align your offer with yourself (more fulfilled in your work) or with the market (you sell more, more easily, at a higher price). This playbook aligns you with the market.
The surfer analogy
Ignore the market
10x harder. 10x longer. For results 10x smaller.
Surf on it
An offer that sells itself easily. Less effort, more results. It's as simple as that.
A concrete example
Want something concrete? Let's go.
I can't picture it. Do you have a concrete example of what you mean?
Behind the scenes
€21,000 in 7 days. Sold by a guy who hates closing. So it's the offer that did everything in my place.
We listen to the market. We give it what it wants.
And we take on everything: the risk AND the effort.
No time limit
→ The market: 3 months billed, then we part ways.
→ Us: as long as you don't have the result, we keep going.
We don't sell time, we sell a result.
A number-based goal, signed on paper
→ The market: "I'll coach you for 3 months, don't worry it'll help."
→ Us: a precise goal, signed, legally binding.
No coaching program signs this kind of commitment because it puts insane pressure on them, and that's exactly what makes the offer sell itself.
3 founders on direct WhatsApp
→ The market: a coach who often struggles to get clients himself.
→ Us: a team of 2 engineers and a coach available 7 days a week, for you.
You ask one question, you get 3 people working on it.
100% personalized program
→ The market: group coaching, everyone follows the same plan.
→ Us: we build a goal and a roadmap tailored to YOU.
It takes us a lot more energy but that's exactly what makes the difference.

"And it's someone who hates selling who signed all this."
An offer you hate to sign is an offer the market loves to sign.

Well done for reading this far. Take a good look at what comes out of the chest.

Part 3
We'll move fast. Freelance marketing comes down to ONE single thing. One.
The marketing
You can farm your landing, your SEO, your copy all you want.
"
Social proof
Each proof triggers a different level of trust in their head. Here's the real hierarchy.
Sources: Spiegel Research Center · BrightLocal Local Consumer Review Survey 2024 · Wyzowl State of Video Marketing 2024 · LinkedIn B2B Institute / HBR
Deep dive #1 · Word of mouth
Every client you over-deliver for turns into an indirect salesperson for your business.
"
Deep dive #2 · Video review
A dedicated 20-25 min meeting: you review the work and collect a video review. The client knows why they're there. You record, you guide them, then you cut the call into clips to reuse for months.
⏱ 15 minutes
INPUT · 1 recorded call
Homepage
Cold email
Pitch deck
Reels
OUTPUT · 5 reusable clips
And you use them for 12 months.
The tactic
Not a Google Form. Not an email. A short, directed, recorded call. And you walk away with a gold mine.
15 to 20 min max
Short. The client says yes more easily.
Recorded Google Meet
You'll have the video + the audio + the transcript.
You're the one leading
You ask the questions. You guide. You close.
Your intro, word for word
"Before we wrap up, I'll do a quick review of the gig and record it, so it works as a testimonial for me. Answer in complete sentences, restate my question in your answer, and be blunt, especially about what made you hesitate at first."
The free script
Everything we just saw, ready to use. Look at what comes out of the chest.
Call script · Video review
The full script to run your wrap-up call.
The ready-to-use Notion page: the 6 questions in order, the word-for-word intro and the follow-ups to get the client talking. Duplicate it and keep it in front of you during the call.
Part 4
This is where everything is decided, and often THE bottleneck that stops you from scaling. The goal? Being 10x more visible starting now.

The 4 levers
The 4 actions to find freelance clients on LinkedIn. Do all 4 well, and you no longer need Malt or word of mouth to get started.
Levier 1
Your posts
Direct visibility, compounding over months.
Levier 2
Your comments
Borrowed visibility on posts that are already crushing it.
Levier 3
Your outreach
Targeted DMs to the profiles that match your offer.
Levier 4
Your lead magnets
A free resource that captures interested prospects.
Do this before anything else
It's 30 minutes of work, once.
And it changes the payoff of all 4 levers that follow.
Get discovered
Get understood
Earn trust
Trigger action
Lever 1 / 4
No ads, no cold pitching. You publish, and the prospects come find you.
You publish
1 post
5 minutes to write it. That's the only effort you put in across the whole chain.
You become visible
From 100 to 100,000+ views on a single post. That many prospects discovering you exist.
They reach out to you
You're no longer freelancer #X. You're the one they come looking for, for your skills.
No more outreachKey takeaways
Stop chasing clients.
Publish, become visible, and they're the ones chasing you.
The turnaround
AI rewrote the rules, line by line. Only one didn't budge.
"
The crowd
When 1,000 freelancers deliver the same thing, nobody calls the best. They call the one they know.
Key takeaways
Top of mind = first one called. The other 999 rent their clients from Malt. You, you own your distribution.
Lever 1 / 4
Key principle
Nobody reads your post. They read your first line.
The hook decides whether the remaining 99% get read. Write it first, polish it more than everything else.
Phase 1 — The angle (idea + hook)
Draw from what works
Browse the viral posts in your niche. Spot the hooks, angles, and formats that perform.
Find your Big Idea
One strong, counterintuitive idea, backed by your authority. It's the core of the post: everything else dresses it up.
Nail your packaging (hook + visual)
It's the hook + visual combo that decides whether your post gets read or ignored. A first line that stops the scroll, a visual that pops.
Phase 2 — Writing & publishing
Write the post
Hook → value → CTA. Airy, one idea per line, zero fluff.
Score it before publishing
LinkPost gives you a virality score before you even post. You fix, you maximize.
Publish and analyze
Consistency > quantity. 3 thought-out posts > 7 rushed ones. The analytics tell you what to do again.
Lever 1 / 4

Lever 2 / 4
At first, nobody knows you. You post into the void. 3 months go by, nothing takes off. Except this desert isn't inevitable.
Without a commenting routine
Crossing the desert
3 flat months. You doubt. You quit.
~300 impressions / post at 6 months
With a commenting routine
Takeoff from day 1
You borrow the leaders' audience. The algo credits you. You get out of the desert.
~3,500 impressions / post at 6 months
Same creator. Same content. One single difference : commenting on other people's posts every day.
Lever 2 / 4
Commenting.
100,362 impressions
70,100 impressions
26,703 impressions
3,080 impressionsPost + comment = your audience sees you everywhere.
Lever 2 / 4
The commenting strategy is about commenting on the right person, at the right time, with the right comment.
The most important
The right person
The leaders and prospects in your niche. Not your neighbor, not your buddies. Without that, you're talking into the void.
At the right time
In the golden hour of their post. That's when the algo distributes the majority of the reach, and therefore the exposure your comment will capture.
The right comment
More than 10 words, your expertise, no "great post 🔥". The goal: getting people to click on your profile.
LinkHub handles everything
Comments on the right people, at the right time, with the right comment.
Lever 3 / 4
The most predictable lever, and the most neglected. The only one that works without an audience, starting today.
The other levers
You post, you comment, you wait.
Outreach
You choose who, you write, you close.
0 followers required. Your first DM can go out in 10 minutes.
Lever 3 / 4
Before you do outreach, choose your angle. There are two, very different ones.
You post content and stay active. People like, comment, visit your profile. You write to those who reacted, while it's hot.
You pull a list of people who match your ideal target. They don't know you yet. You make the first move and write cold.
The smartest move? Do both. The signal for reply rate. The list for volume.
Lever 3 / 4
From 100% by hand to 100% autonomous. It's up to you to dial it based on your time and budget.
By hand
Total control, but it eats your time.
Who does what
The tool opens, you close
The tool starts, you take over at the reply.
An agent handles everything
From the first message to the booked meeting.
Lever 3 / 4
With your setting in place, two things make all the difference.
Target
100 profiles that match your offer
Not 1,000. Not 10,000. 100. Hand-picked, precise ICP, explicit problem. Quality over quantity.
Message
Not a pitch, a question
A short, personal DM that opens a conversation. The pitch only comes if the conversation goes well.
Lever 4 / 4
A free resource you offer in exchange for a comment. You give value, and you collect prospects who are already interested.
1 · You offer
A useful resource
Checklist, template, guide, prompt pack… something your ICP truly wants.
2 · They comment
A keyword under your post
Every comment boosts your reach. Your post reaches even more people.
3 · You capture
Send via DM
You send the resource privately. You walk away with a qualified prospect and their contact.
A post that drives reach AND captures prospects. The most profitable combo on LinkedIn.
Lever 4 / 4
There are dozens of strategies on LinkedIn. But the current meta, the one that generates the most visibility and clients with the least effort, is the lead magnet: a resource offered in exchange for a comment.

Lever 4 / 4
Key principle
Never create the resource first.
The packaging (= your hook + your visual) is what makes people stop and comment. The resource comes after, custom-built, to match the post.
Phase 1 — The packaging (hook + visual)
Take inspiration from what works
Browse viral lead magnets in your niche. Spot the hooks, visuals and angles that perform.
Create the hook + the visual
This combo decides whether your post goes viral or gets ignored. Everything else depends on it.
Phase 2 — The content
Write the post
Structure it around the hook. 70% value + a 3-step CTA.
Build the resource custom-made
Only now. PDF, video, course, tool... whatever the format, it has to match the post.
Publish, engage and follow up
Tuesday 12pm-1pm. Reply in the first hour. Send the resource automatically via DM.

FAQ
What I get asked the most about client acquisition as a freelancer.
By building a predictable acquisition system on LinkedIn, built around 4 levers: your posts, your comments, your targeted DM outreach and your lead magnets. These levers bring clients to you, without depending on luck or platforms.
By treating your acquisition like a measurable system (traffic, marketing, product) instead of counting on word of mouth. The playbook breaks down the method that took me from €700 to €75K in 4 months, aiming for a predictable €10k/month.
Marketplaces can help at the very start, but most of the work happens off-platform, on the off-market. Staying there puts you in a price war. LinkedIn lets you get chosen for your expertise, not your rate.
With 4 levers: your posts (visibility and authority), your comments (borrowed visibility), your targeted DM outreach, and your lead magnets. In the AI era, what sets you apart is no longer your skills but your reputation, and content is what builds it.
No, but AI has commoditized skills. What's becoming rare and valuable is reputation and trust, which you build by being visible on LinkedIn. Freelancers who publish become the obvious choice.
