About
I'm Junaid Khalid, founder of Ertiqah, the company behind eight products used by 15,000+ people, including LigoSocial (a LinkedIn content and engagement tool) and Early Days Club. I studied Software Engineering at NUST (BSc, 2020) and have spent the last few years writing on LinkedIn and building tools for people who do. The most useful thing I ever tried was a two-week experiment: I stopped posting and left three to five substantive comments a day on posts that mattered to me. My profile views tripled, and the Medium write-up of it drew 13,000+ engagements. Early Days Club is built on that lesson: early, relevant, human support from the right people matters more than volume. I write these guides from that experience, and I say so when something is my opinion rather than a fact.

How these guides are written: every statistic links to its source, product screens are real captures of the Early Days Club extension with sample members, and anything that is my opinion is labelled as such.
