Your Future Clients Are Lurking, Not Liking.

It’s easy to get discouraged when you post and hear crickets.

No likes. No comments. Maybe a pity repost if you’re lucky.

But here’s the truth most founders forget:

Engagement ≠ impact.

The people who like your posts are often not the ones who pay you.

The people who read silently for months, waiting for the right time?

Those are your next clients, partners, and investors.

We see it all the time:

  • A founder thinks their content isn’t working, then suddenly gets a DM:

    “Hey, I’ve been following your stuff for a while. Can we talk?”

  • A post with 5 likes turns into a $50K project.

  • A newsletter with 300 readers gets opened by the exact right person at the exact right time.

Why? Because trust doesn’t always announce itself.

Some of your most valuable audience members are watching quietly.

They’re evaluating. Absorbing. Deciding if you’re someone they can trust.

So post anyway.

Even when it feels like no one’s watching.

Because they are.

And when they’re ready, they won’t ask about your engagement rate.

They’ll ask how to work with you.

Tell a Micro-Moment Story

Every day gives you something worth sharing, if you’re paying attention.

  • A client conversation.

  • A comment in a meeting.

  • A message from a friend.

  • A parenting moment that hit deeper than expected.

These small, real-life snapshots are gold for content, because they feel human, unforced, and true. And when you share them, they do more than fill your feed. They build trust.

This week’s experiment:

Look back at your day. What stuck with you even briefly? Write it down and share it.

It doesn’t have to be profound. It just has to be real.

Because the more you practice sharing honest, in-motion moments, the more authentic and magnetic your content becomes.

Misconceptions About “Building in Public”

You don’t have to share your revenue.

You don’t need to document every rough day or turn your feed into a vulnerability contest.

But if you want people to buy into what you’re building, they need more than polished headlines and product updates.

They need to understand how you think.

That’s what building in public really means. It’s not about exposure — it’s about context.

When you let people in on how you’re making decisions, what you’re learning, and where you’re headed, you give them a reason to trust you — not just your product.

It doesn’t require being overly personal. It requires being real.

The founders who build the most momentum online aren’t the ones with the loudest voices — they’re the ones who consistently show up with clarity, direction, and a willingness to share the journey as it unfolds.

When people understand the builder, they trust what’s being built.

And trust is what makes people buy, refer, and follow for the long haul.

Nikita Bier, the Algorithm Shift, and Why X is Getting Better

If you’ve spent any time on X lately, you’ve probably noticed something: it feels… sharper. More relevant. Less chaotic.

A big reason? Nikita Bier.

The founder of apps like tbh and Gas is now the Head of Product at X, and it’s already showing. His own rise came from consistently posting real, personal, and often unpolished content.

Now, he’s using that same energy to reshape the platform around authentic creators.

And people are responding. His posts are blowing up, not because they’re optimized, but because he’s real.

But here’s what matters most: X recently mentioned that its “For You” feed is shifting to show you more from people you actually follow, and less from random accounts. That means your network and consistency matter more than ever.

If you’re a founder who’s been posting with intention, this is your moment.

Don’t get distracted chasing virality. Keep showing up, keep building your audience, and keep sharing what’s real.

Keep building,
