Day one of a five-day LinkedIn series
Written for Mahlena-Rae Johnson, a speaking coach for introverted edtech CEOs, 2024
The series gave one presentation tip a day for five days, each post with its own image. This is day one, with the emoji and hashtags taken out so it reads cleanly here.
If you are an introverted CEO with stage fright, you need to read this (and say goodbye to stage fright thereafter)
Do you know how to set a long-term company vision, lead the executive team efficiently and build happy employee relationships, but feel lost in public speaking?
And then wonder how Sal Khan, Michael Fullan, Marc Randolph and other popular public speakers are doing it.
Read the rest
This is the first presentation tip you need to know to deliver in public speaking like a pro.
You have to understand your audience before the presentation to connect with them during the presentation.
Before the presentation, you need to ask: Who is my audience? What do they need? What are their fears and dreams? How can I add value to them?
Because during the presentation, the more you value your audience, the more they will value your speech. The more focus you have on them, the less fearful you will be of them. The more you serve them, the less worried you will be over your performance.
Know that they are people too. And they are eager to see you do well and add value to their lives.
It’s about them. It’s not about you (never forget this!)
What audience size do you prefer when speaking in public: a large hall packed with people, or an intimate setting like a cozy bedroom? Tell me in the comments!

The home page of an immigration firm
Part of a 42-page website written for an immigration consultancy in Doha, 2025
People read these pages while deciding whether to move their family abroad. The job was to sound certain about the process without promising an outcome nobody can promise.
Work, live and invest across borders with experts who know the right people and the right process.
We handle the paperwork, the people, the process. From job placements to business relocations, we manage your entire move across borders. Ready to move? 3, 2, 1… so are we.
From the questions page. How fast can I get a work visa? Depends on the country and how fast your documents are prepared. We’ve processed some within three weeks. Others take longer. Speed is not a promise. But preparation is.
The closing line. A passport gets you to the gate. What gets you through is precision, strategy, and people who know how systems work.

Story angles from a media kit
Written for a Sydney practitioner going into podcast and press season, 2026
Editors and podcast hosts skim a kit for one thing: the story they can run. So the kit leads with three angles instead of a biography.
Why capable men go numb. Insight doesn’t heal what the body hasn’t felt. The exhaustion many men carry is the cost of holding a role together, year after year, until numbness becomes the default.
The modern-day monk of men’s work. Early nights, sunrise, daily devotional practice. Her discipline is her protection against every cliché in this space.
The woman who gives men their power back. An anti-guru story in a field full of gurus. The measure of her success is a man who needs her less, not more.

Editing for an executive
From chatting at a party to co-owning a resort
For Pipasu Soni, then EVP and CFO of NFI Group, 2024
He sent the story in his own words, with every number and name in it. My job was to keep all of that and make it read like a person talking.
Friends, here is how it all started.
This article was born out of a conversation I had with a friend at my son’s U-9 hockey team end-of-season party. I remember us discussing my journey to becoming a CFO, as well as my experiences with personal business ventures.
It was 10 years ago (or probably 15 now). My wife and I, with our two daughters, were living in Minneapolis, following our daily routines…

Every script follows the same shape: a story her audience already knows, one business lesson and one clear ask.
Opener. Twenty years ago, in 2004, a man wanted to help his cousin understand mathematics. He started teaching her using Yahoo’s Doodle notepad. Their sessions grew, eventually moving to YouTube, and today the channel has 8 million subscribers and billions of views worldwide.
Script. This channel is the Khan Academy, founded by Salman Khan, and it has made all-round learning simple, fun and accessible. Now, imagineeeee another channel where you can learn how to start and scale your business, create high-ticket offers and find clients, all for free.

The first email in a cold sequence
Written for Fire Fuel SEO, going out to fencing companies, 2024
This is one of two versions I wrote for the same slot, so the agency could test which opening earned the reply.
Subject. What if you could be the most popular fencing company online?
Picture this: property owners lining up to hire your company. Your company is the most popular fencing company they find on Google, and everyone in town is talking about you. How does that feel?
This isn’t some fantasy. It’s the reality for a few companies you admire. But here’s the thing. It could be your reality too.

Is Google dying? What nobody’s saying about AI search
Written for the founder of Fire Fuel SEO, in his voice, 2025
His clients kept asking whether to abandon SEO for AI after GPT-5 landed. This is the answer, with the research behind it.
Last August, when ChatGPT released GPT-5, my inbox filled with panic. “Jordan, is SEO dead?” “Should we stop investing in Google and move everything to AI?”
It was the same tone business owners had during the crypto wave: fear dressed as curiosity.
Here’s the truth no one likes to say out loud. Google is not dying. Search is not disappearing. It’s evolving.
When people open ChatGPT, they’re not abandoning Google. They’re shortcutting to answers. But even ChatGPT doesn’t invent those answers. It pulls from Google. So if your brand is not visible and credible across the web, AI won’t see you either.
