A global lean consulting CEO with Nike, Kroger, and Toyota on his roster — but zero LinkedIn content. A phased visibility system changed everything.
Isidro “Izzy” Galicia is the CEO of a global lean consulting group with clients including Nike, Kroger, and Toyota. Despite decades of industry authority, he had zero LinkedIn content and relied entirely on referrals and Google PPC ads. Through a phased LinkedIn visibility system — profile, newsletter, live video, then posting — Izzy closed multiple six-figure inbound consulting contracts with a 75% close rate, with first leads arriving by day 90.
Lean Manufacturing Consulting / Continuous Improvement
Enterprise-level lean consulting engagements for operations leaders and C-suite executives
~3,000 dormant LinkedIn connections, zero content history, no posts, no videos, no newsletter
First inbound leads by day 90; multiple six-figure contracts closed within 8 months
Phased system: profile repositioning, then twice-monthly newsletter, then monthly LinkedIn Live, then 3-4 posts per week
Izzy had built something most consultants never achieve: a global lean consulting practice with a client roster that included Nike, Kroger, and Toyota. His reputation in the industry was spotless. His expertise was deep. None of that was in question.
What was in question was where the next five years of growth would come from. His entire pipeline depended on two sources: referrals and Google PPC ads. Both had served him well, but both had ceilings.
We didn’t try to do everything at once. The strategy was deliberately phased, building assets and audience in a sequence that let each piece of content reinforce the next.
Before publishing a single piece of content, we rebuilt his LinkedIn profile from the ground up. His headline was rewritten to speak directly to operations leaders and C-suite executives. His About section was restructured around client outcomes, not credentials.
We launched a newsletter focused on lean operations and continuous improvement — topics his ideal clients actively think about. The cadence was twice per month, chosen to maintain visibility without overwhelming a CEO also running a consulting practice.
Monthly LinkedIn Live events served a dual purpose: they gave prospects a reason to engage in real time, and they created a growing library of video content for repurposing. Live video builds familiarity that written content cannot.
By day 90, enough raw material existed from live events and newsletters to support 3-4 posts per week. This was strategically repurposed content, not created from scratch — making the cadence sustainable for a busy CEO.
Every piece of content addressed a specific operational challenge that his ideal clients — operations leaders at mid-market and enterprise companies — face daily. The content pre-qualified readers by demonstrating the depth of his expertise.
Consistent content reactivated 3,000 dormant connections. These weren’t strangers — they were senior executives Izzy had built relationships with over decades. Content gave them a reason to re-engage, and half the closed deals came from this reactivated network.

“I thought, yeah, we ought to get in that social media game. Never thought it would be hitting the way it is.”
“The deals feel like in the conversation that we’ve already spoken before.”
“It’s everything that we’ve never done and far, far exceeds what I thought was even possible.”
If you’re an established business owner or B2B expert ready to go all in on LinkedIn, this system could work for you.
