For founders and consultants growing on LinkedIn
LinkedIn keeps showing your posts to people who are not your target audience.
Early Days Club fixes that. Give a few minutes a day. Get support from members who match your buyers.
- Matched by target audience and audience size
- Every member reviewed by a person
- Real people, no bots

Sound familiar?
You write a good post. Nobody who matters sees it.
The wrong people like it, or nobody does. LinkedIn can’t tell who it’s for, so it stops showing it. Most founders quit right here.
Watch: it’s not your fault · 37s
- "I refresh for an hour after I post. Then I close the app."
- "The same five people like everything I post."
- "Everyone says be consistent. Consistent into what?"
Why it happens
LinkedIn learns who you’re for from who shows up first.
It isn’t your writing. It’s who reads your post in its first hours.
- 01
Posts are shown by topic
Since 2021, LinkedIn decides who sees a post by what it’s about and who it seems to be for, not just by who follows you.
- 02
The first readers are the signal
The people who read and comment first tell LinkedIn who your post is for. It then shows it to more people like them.
- 03
Wrong first room, wrong audience
If your first readers are old classmates, cousins and engineers, that’s who sees your next post too. Left alone, it can take months to fix.
“I write for solopreneurs. About 40% of my connections are engineers. So LinkedIn showed my posts to engineers.”

Support a few posts a day
Leave real comments on posts from members who want to reach people like you. Likes are welcome too.

Get supported
You’re added to the lists of members who match your buyers. When you post, they read and comment as they come online.
Example
People like your buyers support you. You support members who want to reach people like you.

The cold start
Nobody walks into an empty restaurant.
We judge a place by who’s already inside. People judge your posts the same way, and so does LinkedIn. The first supporters are the hardest to get.
- First customer. First subscriber. First dollar.
- The 100th is easier than the first
- The club fills your first seats with people like your buyers

The deal
Support others regularly. Go quiet and your posts pause.
Every 2 to 4 days, a person on our team reviews your account to keep support quality high across the club. Everyone gets the same check, so the people supporting you meet the same bar too. Keep supporting members and your posts keep getting supported.
Give real support. Earn coins.
- Coins. Our support team adds coins whenever they review your account. How many depends on the quality and quantity of the support you’ve given other members. Invites earn coins too.
- A free month, paid in coins. Save up 100 coins per $1 of your monthly fee. When your coins cover a full month, one tap in the extension adds 30 days before your next bill. Until then you pay as normal and keep saving.
- Featured posts. Each week we pick up to 3 member posts to feature to the whole club. Nominate yours with your coins.
Support other members. Get the right people on your posts.
Apply to joinQuality first
Real reading. Real comments. Quality first.
The club works because every member gives real support. Four rules keep it that way.
Give first.
Support other members before you ask for support. Giving is how your own support grows.
Read posts properly.
Dwell time matters, so read the whole post before you comment.
AI help is fine.
AI-assisted comments are fine if you read the post and edit the comment so it says what you think.
Low effort gets removed.
Members who give low-effort support get a warning. If it keeps happening, they’re removed.
Start small. Grow as you give.
We start every new member with a smaller group of supporters. It grows as our team sees you giving real support. Your audience grows with the club.
If your exact audience is still small in the club, founders and other members back you while it fills up.

Pods and posting alone both miss your buyers.
Posting alone
- Likes from old colleagues, not buyers
- LinkedIn never learns who you’re for
- Months of silence, then you quit
Engagement pods
- Nobody checks if the support is real
- Copy-paste "Great insights!"
- Random niches teach LinkedIn the wrong audience
Early Days Club
- Every member reviewed by a person
- Supported by members who match your buyers
- Real comments only: low-effort comments are flagged and a person reviews them

Seven fair questions, answered in 40 seconds. Everything else is below.
Watch: fair questions · 42s
Why would strangers support me?
Because every member signs up to the same deal: support other members' posts with real comments. You're added to the lists of members who match your buyers, so they see your new posts. So a head of sales supports your post for the same reason you support an SEO agency's: that is how everyone's posts get supported.
Is this an engagement pod?
No. In a pod, a fixed group likes each other's posts whatever they're about, and nobody checks the quality. Here you're matched by target audience, every application is reviewed by a person, and our team keeps reviewing every member's support after they join.
How much time does it take?
A few minutes a day for most members. You get a short list of posts to read and comment on.
What if I go quiet?
Your posts pause until you're back. Keep supporting members and your posts stay supported.
When does support arrive?
Over the day, as members come online.
How big is the community?
Small for now, and growing. You're matched by target audience and audience size, so as the club grows, more of your support comes from people who match your buyers.
How do you check the support members give?
Every 2 to 4 days, a person on our team reviews your account to keep support quality high across the club. Everyone gets the same check, so the people supporting you meet the same bar too. Likes are welcome, but real comments are what we look for.
What do I get for inviting people?
Coins, paid once the person you invited is approved and has paid for their first month. Invites from your own second account don't earn coins. Your 1st paid invite earns 3,000 coins, your 2nd 2,000 and each one after that 1,000, plus a 2,000-coin bonus at your 10th, so 10 paid invites earn 15,000 coins. Save up 100 coins per $1 of your monthly fee and you can turn them into a free month. You start with 3 invites, and higher ranks unlock more.
Can coins pay for my membership?
Yes, for a free month. Save up 100 coins for every $1 of your monthly fee. Once your coins cover a full month, tap Use coins for a free month in the extension and 30 days are added before your next bill. Coins only work for a whole month, so until you have enough you pay your normal bill and keep saving.
Do I have to comment on every post?
Yes, leave a real comment on each post in your list, one that shows you read it. Likes are welcome but never required. Members who leave "Great post!" comments are removed.
Will LinkedIn mind?
Real people read posts on topics they care about and comment in their own words, in their own LinkedIn tab. No bots and no automation.
I only have a few hundred followers. Is it too early?
No. This is when it helps most. We match by audience size, so you're matched with members at a similar stage.
Why pay when pods are free?
Free pods get you likes from random people in other industries, so LinkedIn shows your posts to the wrong people. Your membership pays for matching you with your target audience and keeping every member to the deal.
What does it cost?
$99 a month. If someone gave you a discount code, enter it when you apply, or use the link it came with, and it comes off every month for as long as you stay. You're only charged if you're approved: your card is saved when you apply and first charged 7 days after you apply. If we don't approve you, we cancel and you're never charged. You can cancel any time.
Why do you review every application?
Because the club only works if every member gives real support. Every application is reviewed by a person. You'll be approved or declined within 2 to 5 business days. You're only charged if you're approved. Your card is saved now and first charged 7 days after you apply. If we don't approve you, we cancel and you're never charged.
What does warm-up mean?
New members start with a smaller group of supporters. Your group grows as our team sees you giving real support to other members. We call this the first-weeks check.
What if nobody in my niche is in yet?
Founders and other members back you while your exact audience fills up. As more members who match your buyers join, more of your support comes from them.
What does the Chrome extension do?
It shows your daily list of posts and opens each one in your own LinkedIn tab, so you can mark it done. It never likes, comments, posts or clicks for you, and it never asks for your password.
What about X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube?
LinkedIn comes first. X is next, then Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, matched the same way.
What if it's not for me?
Cancel any time by emailing us. You keep access until the end of the month you've paid for and you're not charged again. If you're not approved, you're never charged. Full refund within 10 days of approval.
