Kai Brandt Case Study

Kai Brandt Case Study

Before, Kai posted about market trends and documented Genesy’s journey. It worked “okay”, but it did not differentiate his personal brand nor convert into pipeline.

In one month, by focusing on what made him unique (his life & work story) and documenting his content creation process, his visibility exploded and international opportunities opened.

Challenges (starting point)

  • Undifferentiated message: lots of “trend report”, little lived experience applied to business.
  • Limited time: writing from scratch slowed cadence.
  • Improve conversion: break the 200 leads/month barrier

Process: changes in Kai and how he documented his content creation

1) Reframed personal positioning

  • From commenting on the market ➜ to telling what he lived. Difficult decisions, hits and learnings in first person.
  • From generic “insights” ➜ to applicable lessons. Every post leaves a “do it like this”.
  • From self‑promo ➜ to honest utility. Selling is a consequence, not the headline.

2) Clear script for each post (always the same)

  1. Real experience (context in 2–3 lines).
  2. Tension (what went wrong or was hard).
  3. Learning (what he would do differently and why).
  4. Application (concrete steps/mini‑checklist).
  5. Soft CTA (question or invite to comment/DM).

3) Documentation routine (not “writing from scratch”)

  • Constant updates: weekly session with our voice agent asking about the week’s insights.
  • Story library: decisions, mistakes, clients, “before/after” metrics.
  • Authenticity checklist: Is there data, decision and learning? If one is missing, it does not get published.
  • Fixed cadence: 3–4 posts/week, scheduled; 1 “story”, 1 “actionable list”, 1 “case”.

4) Publishing & conversation that builds authority

  • First 60 min: reply to every comment with extra context (increases reach & quality).
  • DM‑intended posts: when a thread gets interaction, invite to DM.

5) Review & replicate

  • Weekly: identify Top‑1 post by saves/DMs and adapt it with another example.
  • Monthly: compile the top 6–8 posts to see in real time what works best.

Results of the first month

  • Followers: 13,000 ➜ 18,668.
  • Inbound leads: 110/month200/month.
  • Authority & reach: more third‑party mentions and doors opened outside his domestic market (meetings and international partners).
