LinkedIn Employee Advocacy
Stand up a marketing-team LinkedIn advocacy program that scales without killing authenticity. Employee posts get 8x more engagement than brand-page posts — this skill operationalizes that advantage.
When to use
- Marketing leader wants to get their team posting on LinkedIn
- User is planning an advocacy program launch
- Team is posting but output is inconsistent / off-brand / low-engagement
- Need ROI measurement framework for an existing program
- Requests: "how do I get the team posting", "launch advocacy", "scale LinkedIn across 10 people"
Input
- Team size (5-50 typical)
- Marketing goal (reach / pipeline / recruiting / thought leadership)
- Current state (everyone silent / some active / inconsistent)
- Brand guideline constraints
Output
- 14-day launch plan (if cold-starting)
- Operating model (voice capture, ideation, approval, posting, measurement)
- Cadence targets per team member (realistic, not punishing)
- KPI dashboard spec (team reach, engagement, pipeline attribution)
- Governance playbook (brand safety without blocking velocity)
Four operating principles
- Scale authentically. Individuals compose in their own voice, not corporate language. Corporate-tone team posts underperform authentic voice 3x.
- Maintain control. Brand guidelines integrated into the workflow. Review step is optional, not blocking — high-trust roles bypass review entirely.
- Remove friction. Per-post time budget: 5 minutes. Anything more and the program dies in week 3.
- Prove ROI. Track team reach, engagement, pipeline impact. Without attribution, the program gets cut at the first budget review.
Benchmarks
- Launch target: team posting within 14 days
- Active team size benchmark: 8-11 members
- Output benchmark: 70+ posts/week (at 8 members) or 3-5 posts/member/week
- Per-post time budget: 5 minutes
- Team touchpoint math: 11 people × 3 posts/week × 300 min impressions = 40,000 monthly touchpoints baseline
- Employee vs. brand page: 8x more engagement, 6-8x more reach on personal posts
14-day launch playbook
Days 1-3: Voice capture
- Short interview with each team member (5-10 min) to extract their actual voice
- Identify their domain expertise and 2-3 content pillars
- Set realistic individual cadence (some commit to 1/week, some 3/week — don't force uniformity)
Days 4-7: First posts
- Everyone ships their first post, drafted in their voice
- Marketing reviews only for brand safety (never for style)
- Celebrate every first post internally — social proof unlocks the next team member
Days 8-10: Ideation pipeline
- Set up a shared ideation source (newsletter digest, trending-topics feed, internal wins)
- Each team member gets 5-10 topic suggestions per week
- They pick, not assigned
Days 11-14: Rhythm lock
- Establish cadence: each team member publishes on fixed days/times
- Set up KPI dashboard (see below)
- Run first weekly review
Governance: brand-safe without being blocked
What marketing reviews:
- Factual claims about the company / products / customers
- Confidential info
- Legal/compliance issues (finance, health, regulated industries)
What marketing does NOT review:
- Personal voice, tone, style
- Opinions the team member has about their own work
- Formatting, hashtags, emoji choices
- Topic selection (within pillars)
The review SLA: <4 business hours. Anything longer and the post is dead (posts go stale in the news cycle).
ROI measurement
Per-person metrics (content quality)
- Impressions per post
- Engagement rate (reactions + comments + shares / impressions)
- Comments (depth signal)
- Profile views attributed to post
Team-level metrics (program health)
- Total team reach
- Total team engagement
- Individual contribution rank (leaderboard)
- Active members / total members (participation rate)
Business metrics (pipeline impact)
- Inbound DMs sourced from LinkedIn content
- Meetings booked from LinkedIn
- Closed-won deals with LinkedIn as first-touch channel
- Employee referrals sourced from LinkedIn (if recruiting is a goal)
Anti-patterns
- Copy-paste corporate posts across team accounts — LinkedIn detects this, suppresses all of them
- Ghostwriting that erases the writer's voice — reads as fake
- Mandatory posting cadence without individual calibration — program dies in 6 weeks
- Approval loops >24h — makes the program feel like work
- Measuring only vanity metrics — program gets cut without pipeline attribution
- All-same pillars across team — redundancy kills team reach (360Brew penalizes clustering)

reddit-automation
flowkit-labs/skills
Find Reddit threads where people are genuinely asking for what you offer, then draft short, genuinely helpful replies — disclosing your affiliation honestly and naming your product only when it truly answers the question. Two moves: discovery — scan the right subreddits for real needs (recommendation asks, expressed pain, competitor mentions) and rank the few threads where you can actually help; drafting — write from real experience, respect each community's self-promo rules, and keep a human in the loop to review and post. This markets on Reddit the honest way: contribute value, disclose who you are, never astroturf. Distilled from the playbook behind doany.ai's Reddit agent. Triggers on "find reddit opportunities", "reddit marketing", "reddit automation", "reply on reddit for my product", "reddit community engagement", "reddit lead gen", or any ask to turn Reddit threads into genuine, disclosed marketing replies.
