What if the secret to generating six or seven figures in new
revenue isn't paid ads, cold calls, or networking events — but
building a personal brand on the platform most entrepreneurs still
underestimate? In this episode of The Grown Up Business Podcast,
Paul Avins is joined by Chris James — one of the fastest-growing
influential speakers in the industry and creator of the Content to
Clients program. Chris shares his journey from cold-calling in a
call centre with no training and a ripped-up Yellow Pages to
building a thriving coaching business that helps entrepreneurs
generate consistent revenue using organic LinkedIn marketing.
Together, Paul and Chris unpack why LinkedIn is still the most
underrated platform for B2B growth, the four-step workflow that
turns content into clients, and why most people are doing LinkedIn
completely wrong — posting content and hoping people will come.
This conversation goes deep into the power of personal brand, the
difference between mechanical posting and strategic content
creation, why video is massively underutilized, and how to
reverse-engineer your LinkedIn activity to predictably generate
calls, clients, and revenue. This episode is essential listening
