LinkedIn Ghostwriting (human/story angle)
Human-first LinkedIn ghostwriting (personal brand building)
Most founder content sounds robotic. The goal here was the opposite.
I wrote posts that sound like a real person thinking out loud, sharing lessons, mistakes, and opinions.
This builds trust faster than polished corporate content.
The 3rd post of my client generated 44 profile viewers alone.
367 new followers in 45 days.

How are you actually using AI in your design workflow?
For me, AI sharpens the thinking before it speeds up the making. I use ChatGPT to turn my ultra detailed briefs into compelling brnd stories and identity descriptions. Great storytelling sells and not everyone is a natural copywriter. It replaces hours of copy refinement and elevates the narrative.
For visuals, I use Google Nano Banana Pro for most concepts, Seedream 4.5 for ultra-realistic 4K mockups, and Mystic 2.5 for surreal, illustrative explorations. They don’t replace creativity, they expand it.
Big insight: AI is only as good as your input. The better the prompt, the better the outcome.
How much time do you invest in crafting the perfect prompt?
Using AI to sharpen briefs before touching Figma is such a smart workflow. Probably 20-30 mins on prompts saves hours of revision later.
I deleted LinkedIn. Not because I don’t believe in networking. Not because I don’t value opportunity. But because I value my mental health more.
So I logged off.
If LinkedIn energizes you, amazing. But if it exhausts you, it’s okay to choose your peace.
Do you have it?

A nameless product with paying clients but zero brand presence.
How do you take that public?
Before:
→ White-label tech with no positioning.
→ Couldn't pitch publicly or attract new clients.
After:
→ A complete brand identity that positions Dalia as local experts in supporting banks and retailers manage payment systems by tracking the full transaction cycle.
→ Now they can present at conferences and local fairs, close deals with brand materials, and attend Mobile World Congress with their product.
My job was to make smart tech visible and approachable.
Building from zero vs. rebranding: which do you think is actually harder?
