Building a tech CEO's personal brand

My client runs an award-winning afterschool coding and robotics franchise and speaks on leadership. I built her personal brand on LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok: monthly content calendars, Canva carousels and banners, video scripts and a daily engagement routine around her niche.

The voice

Three things she talks about

Business ownershipFor future founders: franchising vs startups, naming a business, legal questions and why most startups fail.
Kids and techFor parents: how to introduce AI and coding, raising digital citizens and what to do about cyberbullying.
MindsetFor everyone: short lines on failure, small wins and trying the idea, with her own photos and moments.

Video

Scripts written to be said out loud

I wrote her video scripts with a hook, a channel intro, titled steps and a close, like "The Money Talks: How to Choose the Right Franchise For Your Budget". It opens with a surprising fact, then walks through setting a budget step by step.

The videos ran on LinkedIn with bold captions and topic bars, and were cut for Reels and TikTok trends.

    Personality

    A founder people can relate to

    Not every post was a lesson. Short, honest lines with a photo from her day showed the person behind the business.

    "Your million dollar idea will never be a million dollar idea until you try it." 56 reactions and 11 comments, one of her strongest posts in the set.

      Community engagement

      45 minutes a day, every day

      30 minutes15 comments across 5 hashtags: 1 on Top Posts and 2 on Most Recent for each
      5 minutes2 comments on posts from her own timeline
      10 minutes25 likes across hashtag posts and her timeline

      Hashtags rotated through the week: #franchising, #kidseducation, #stemeducation, #businessowner, #successmindset, #beyourownboss, #parentingtips, #techkids and more.

      Tracking

      Every engaged post, logged

      Each week the sheet tracked the hashtags, the comments, the likes and what was done, on Instagram and TikTok, so we could see which hashtags brought people back.

      Follower audit

      Cleaning out the quiet followers

      Instagram judges a post by how many followers engage with it. With 1,000 followers and 10 likes, that is 1%, and the algorithm stops showing the post. I scraped her follower list to find inactive accounts and focus growth on people who engage. In the follow tracker, 15 of 81 accounts followed back and the rest were unfollowed.

      Results

      More reach, more conversation

      A steady calendar, a clear voice and daily engagement raised her visibility and drove more interaction on LinkedIn and Instagram.

      People follow founders, not logos. Show the person and the business follows.
