Growthlog 13: Landing page guide and LinkedIn growth
Hello! This is Tom from 🌵 Growthlog.
Every Wednesday, I share growth marketing and automation experiments for SaaS founders.
In case you missed it, last week I shared my Growthlog growth strategy for 2024.
People really liked it.
Bookmark it as it’s a living document, and I’ll keep updating it with my learnings.

Landing page blueprint
I’m working on Rewardful’s new homepage and found this step-by-step guide by Harry Dry, the creator of Marketing Examples, really helpful.
It’s a dense guide to designing landing pages and writing copy that converts.
It’s all you need to get started, really. Just follow it and don’t overthink it.
Also, don’t forget to follow and thank Harry for his excellent work.
Simple way to start growing your audience on LinkedIn
Here's to anyone out there lurking around and waiting for something to happen on social media, more specifically LinkedIn.
Here's proof that being consistent works. It means just scheduling your updates in advance.
I've done the thinking, so you can start right away.
Here's how:
- Just pick your topic. Mine is "growth marketing."
- Niche down. Mine is "growth marketing experiments & automation."
- Dedicate it to one specific person. Mine is "growth marketing experiments & automation for SaaS founders."
- Write everything you know about the topic. Be specific.
- Schedule it. I use and love Typefully.
For now, I post twice a day at 11:30 and 16:30 (Madrid time).
Collaboration opportunity
If you're a marketer on X or LinkedIn, write a tech, or SaaS-related newsletter, I'd love to collaborate on audience-building activities (interviews, liking, commenting, cross-posting).
Respond if you're interested in joining forces.
I’m looking to work with 2-3 creators.
