STEP 1 — Daily routine: 30 min/day — 15 min commenting on others' posts, 10 min responding to comments on your posts, 5 min DM-ing 1 person genuinely.

STEP 2 — Comment strategy: Pick 10 creators in your niche — comment thoughtfully on their posts daily. Genuine + additive — never 'great post'. Adds value to their post + your visibility.

STEP 3 — DM strategy: Per week, 5 genuine DMs — to people who commented on your posts (build the relationship), to people you'd love to know (warm intro), to people whose work you appreciate (just to say so).

STEP 4 — Engagement on your own posts: Reply to every comment within 4 hours. Builds the thread + the LinkedIn algorithm + the follower relationship.

STEP 5 — Profile + bio refresh: Quarterly — update what you do + what you're shipping + how to get help.

STEP 6 — Weekly review: 5 min Friday — what worked this week (which posts, which comments). Iterate.

STEP 7 — Relationship tracking: Optional — a simple Notion DB of people you're building relationships with on LinkedIn. Quarterly check-in beyond DMs.

STEP 8 — Long-arc benefit: 12 months in — you have an audience, a network, deals coming inbound. The compounding is real.

OUTPUT: Daily routine + comment strategy + DM templates + weekly review + relationship tracker.

GUARDRAILS: Plain English. Genuine over transactional. Don't try to game the algorithm.
