The LinkedIn funnel that added $200K in 60 days

In the last 2 months, our agency funnel added $200,000 in revenue.
And it’s now generating 30–50 sales-qualified leads every month.
This week in The Playbook, I’m giving you the full teardown of how it works. The entire system is built around one thing:
Turning content into conversations.
No guesswork. Just repeatable steps that bring pipeline through the door.
THE PLAY
Here is our 3-part funnel for predictable pipeline:

Part 1: Inbound Content Engine
Every week, 350,000–500,000 people see our content. Here’s what we post to create that visibility:
CEO strategy teardowns
Visual frameworks
Lead magnet posts with “comment to get it” offers
Client wins and results
Personal growth stories
This mix keeps our reach high and interest targeted. And we track which posts drive the most MQLs and SQLs:
MQLs = Likes, comments, or views from ICPs
SQLs = Booked calls via LinkedIn or Calendly
Each month, we double down on what’s converting and cut what isn’t. This keeps quality high without burning time.
Part 2: Lead Capture + Outbound
Content pulls the right people in. But it's the follow-up that converts them. Here’s how we move from attention to action:
SDR and I sit in DMs to start convos with engagers
Breakcold helps us nurture through comments
We ask polarity-shifting questions to spark replies
Qualified leads get invited to a Zoom call
We also layer outbound with Sales Navigator:
Monthly lists filtered by funding round or job changes
720 open profile messages per month
It adds cold outreach volume on top of the warm leads
And we run cold email too:
LinkedIn + Navigator to pull the data
Prospeo.io and Clay for enrichment
Smartlead to send
Valley.AI to identify and follow up with website visitors
More relevant touchpoints mean more replies.
Simple as that.
Part 3: Paid Retargeting
Organic content does the heavy lifting, while paid spend gives it a second life. Each month, we boost top-performing posts with LinkedIn ads.
£100 spend = 5,000 to 15,000 extra impressions
Targeted at tech and software companies
SDR jumps on engagement and books calls
It keeps us top of mind and gives our content a longer runway.
WHY THIS WORKS
Most funnels focus too much on top-of-funnel activity. This one treats the funnel as a flywheel.
Content creates trust
Outbound turns interest into meetings
Paid ads fuel what’s already working
Each part feeds the next. That’s what makes it scale.
STEAL THIS PLAY
→ Create content that sparks curiosity, not just views.
→ Follow up fast, and make the DM feel like a conversation.
→ Stack outbound volume on top of warm engagement.
→ Retarget winners. Don’t guess. Just amplify what’s proven.
The Final Word
The best funnels aren’t complex. They’re consistent. This one has been working for months and still compounds every week.
