I spent 11 years thinking LinkedIn was for job hunting. Then a plant manager in Ohio commented on my post about changeover waste. Two calls later, that conversation became our largest Q2 order. 3 things I wish I'd known sooner: ...see more

Built on work with teams at

The playbook your marketing team is running was built for a LinkedIn that no longer exists.

You post to the company page. You boost the occasional update. You bought the advocacy tool. And the needle has not moved, because the platform changed underneath you.

Your company page cannot carry visibility alone

Organic page reach fell roughly 50% in a year. Pages receive under 6% of feed slots, while people in your network receive 42%. A company-page strategy needs visible employees behind it.

Competitors are gaining executive visibility

CEO posting is up 52% in two years. Buyers, candidates, and boards use executive content to understand a company's priorities and judgment.

Your sellers arrive after buyers have formed a shortlist

61% of B2B buyers prefer a rep-free process, and buyers initiate 79% of first contacts. Familiar, credible experts are more likely to receive that message.

A customer told me last week: "You're the third supplier to quote this job, but the only one who explained why our spec was going to cost us." That sentence is the whole job. We use this checklist before we send a number: ...see more

The sale now happens before the sales call. Invisible companies lose ground, while recognized experts enter the shortlist early.

Buying committees research in private, build a shortlist, and then talk to vendors. Companies earn an early place on that list when their people share useful ideas and join the conversations buyers already follow.

71%

of buying committee members never talk to a sales rep during evaluation.

They read your people's content instead. If there is none, they read your competitor's. (Edelman-LinkedIn, 2025)

95%

of the time, the winner was on the buyer's shortlist before day one.

Shortlist visibility influences pipeline months before the RFP begins. (6sense, 2025)

45%

less engagement on AI-generated posts, and half the feed now is AI.

When generic posts are common, specific experience and a recognizable voice carry more weight.

What we change

Earn attention before the buying process becomes visible.

We rebuild your experts' profiles to sell instead of recite, then put them in your buyers' feed every week. Your people become familiar before the RFP arrives and before the shortlist is written.

Business effectMore buyers recognize your experts early enough to include them in the first conversation.

Enablement, not agency.

For B2B companies whose buyers live on LinkedIn, The Marquee Method is the corporate LinkedIn enablement system from TLR Consulting Group that turns executives, employees, and sales teams into the company's most effective marketing and sales channel.

Unlike ghostwriting agencies

They rent you a voice

$5,000 to $15,000 a month per executive, and the voice walks out the day the contract ends. We build your people's own capability, and it stays and compounds.

Unlike advocacy software

It pushes links nobody clicks

Roughly half of paid advocacy seats never activate, because a tool cannot teach anyone what to say. We are the enablement layer that makes the software worth what you paid.

Unlike sales-only trainers

They stop at the SDR team

Your buyers research your executives, engineers, and account managers too. We enable the whole company on one method, with an edition for every role.

We install one repeatable LinkedIn system across your company: trained into your people, reinforced until it sticks, and aimed at conversations, not impressions.

The Marquee Method

A company-wide LinkedIn enablement system built around five connected capabilities.

The method gives executives, experts, and sellers the skills to earn credibility, build relevant networks, publish useful content, start buyer conversations, and sustain the work after training.

C1 · The profile

Credibility

Rebuild the profile to speak to the ideal customer and prove expertise so every visit strengthens the deal.

Headline & Banner · About & Experience · Featured & Recommendations
C2 · The network

Connections

Build a deliberate network of ideal prospects, partners, and peers using LinkedIn search and Sales Navigator with quality over randomness.

ICP Targeting & Search · Connection Requests · Network Quality & Reach
C3 · Thought leadership

Content

Create thought leadership that educates and entertains the exact audience you sell to with topics, hooks, and formats that work now.

Pillars & Ideas · Formats & Hooks · Reach & the Algorithm
C4 · The point of it all

Conversations

Turn attention into opportunity through comments, messages, and warm signals that lead naturally to meetings.

Consistency

Sustain the method with a daily routine, helpful tools and AI, and team habits that keep the first four C's active long after training.

The right level of support matters.

One-off instruction fades when the workday does not support the behavior. We match the depth of support to the change you are asking people to make.

1
Learn. Live, practical instruction matched to the role, business need, and experience of the people in the room.
2
Apply. When the format allows, participants work on real profiles, ideas, conversations, or team plans during the session.
3
Reinforce when needed. Sprints and Programs add coaching, reviews, and implementation support. Workshops and keynotes conclude with a clear action plan rather than implied ongoing support.
Visible by design

What useful evidence can look like

Success measures follow the scope. A focused Workshop is not judged like a 90-day implementation, but the progress should still be concrete and visible.

Profiles that read like resumes now speak to buyers
The right people begin participating with credible activity
Relevant buyers begin responding in comments and messages
For reinforced engagements, the routine continues after live sessions end
Three engagement paths

Choose by the change you need, not by a list of deliverables.

The offers no longer compete with one another. Each has one job: teach, prove, or install.

01Teach
One immediate need

Team Workshop

Two live hours for up to twenty-five people. Choose a Foundations Workshop for a clear view of all five C's, or a Focused Skill Lab to solve one defined gap.

Best when the team needs shared language, an immediate skill fix, or a practical first experience.

Ends with completed work and a thirty-day action plan. It does not include live implementation support.

02Prove
One team or business unit

LinkedIn Activation Sprint

A 45-day pilot for up to fifty people. The cohort learns the full method, applies it live, and receives weekly support long enough to show whether the behavior will hold.

Best when you want evidence before making a broader organizational commitment.

Ends with a before-and-after sponsor review and a clear decision to stop, repeat, or scale.

03Install
Department or company-wide

The Marquee Program

A 90-day implementation across roles. It includes the live training and reinforcement of the Sprint, then adds leadership alignment, manager enablement, governance, measurement, and the company playbook.

Best when the goal is a repeatable company capability, not a successful pilot.

Ends with an operating system your managers can run and your next department can adopt.

Supporting formats

These support the three paths. They are not additional implementation choices.

The Marquee Academy

The continuity layer for trained teams, alumni, distributed employees, and new hires. Included with Sprints and Programs.

How the Academy fits →
Keynotes and Sales Kickoffs

An event introduction that creates awareness and action. It does not include the reinforcement or installation of a Sprint or Program.

Included With Every Program

Marquee Studio: five AI agents that do the heavy lifting

Tuned to your company's customers, offer, and each person's actual voice. AI can help with speed and structure. People supply the judgment, evidence, and stories that make the work worth reading.

Profile Architect

Interviews each employee, then drafts a headline and About section written for your buyers, ready for human polish.

Post Coach

Turns a voice memo into three drafts in that person's voice, then scores every draft against the anti-slop checklist.

Comment Copilot

Suggests substantive comments on target accounts' posts. Trained to add a point of view, never "Great post!"

Conversation Starter

Drafts personalized, non-pitchy openers and follow-ups from each prospect's profile and activity.

Idea Miner

Turns this week's customer calls, site visits, and objections into a bank of post ideas in each person's own voice.

This playbook was built inside a company like yours, not in a marketing agency.

Trevor Robinson spent more than a decade leading marketing and media inside an industrial automation manufacturer, where getting engineers, executives, and salespeople active on LinkedIn became the company's edge over bigger competitors.

Since then he has trained and advised teams across hospitality, manufacturing, automation, and B2B growth, including work with Radisson Hotel Group, Aimbridge Hospitality, Phoenix Contact, and MaxLite.

Trevor turned that decade of practice into The Marquee Method, TLR Consulting Group's system for building LinkedIn capability across five C's. We measure progress through useful conversations instead of impressions, and we use the same method on our own LinkedIn.

Get your LinkedIn Visibility Scorecard

Before you spend a dollar, see exactly where you stand. We benchmark your company against three competitors you name and send you a 20-minute video walkthrough plus a one-page report.

1
Company page reality check. The audience your posts reach compared with the audience you expect.
2
Employee activity rate. How many of your people show up in the feed, versus your competitors' people.
3
Executive presence gap. Your leadership's visibility next to the leaders your buyers are already reading.

We produce a limited number of Scorecards each week because a human builds every one. If visibility is not a priority this quarter, the benchmark still ages well: run it now, keep the baseline.

Questions buyers ask us

So are you a LinkedIn training agency?+
Training is the core of what we do, and we are proud of it. The difference is everything wrapped around it: a training agency sells you sessions and leaves; an enablement partner builds capability that stays. One method across every role, reinforcement until it holds, a playbook your company keeps, and progress anyone can see in the feed itself. The sessions are where it starts, not what you bought.
What is the difference between a Workshop, Sprint, and Program?+
A Workshop teaches either the full framework at a high level or one skill in depth, then ends with an action plan. The Sprint pilots the full method with one team for 45 days and produces evidence for a scale decision. The Program installs the method across roles and managers for 90 days, with governance, measurement, and a company playbook.
Where does the Academy fit?+
The Academy is the continuity layer after live training. Sprint and Program participants receive access for reinforcement, refreshers, and onboarding. It is not positioned as a fourth implementation choice.
Will our people keep this up after the training?+
A one-off workshop rarely creates a durable habit, which is why it is sold as training rather than implementation. The Sprint includes weekly support and a day-45 review. The Program adds ninety days of manager reinforcement and sponsor oversight.
We already bought an employee advocacy platform. Isn't that this?+
The platform can distribute approved content and report activity. It cannot teach employees how to develop a point of view, write in their own voice, or start a relevant buyer conversation. We provide that training and use your platform data to measure adoption.
Can't AI just write our posts?+
AI can organize notes, suggest structures, and speed up editing. It cannot supply firsthand experience or accountable judgment. We teach participants to use AI as an editor and thinking aid while keeping the facts, perspective, and final decision with the author.
Why hire a program instead of a ghostwriter for our CEO?+
Ghostwriting can cost $5,000 to $15,000 per month for each executive, and the support ends with the contract. The Marquee Program builds the capability inside your company through voice guidance, repeatable routines, and AI support grounded in the executive's expertise. Your team keeps those skills after the program ends.
Our industry is regulated. Will legal and compliance object?+
Every program includes a playbook covering approval norms, disclosure, and platform terms of service. We build it with your communications, legal, and compliance teams in week one, then practice with examples from your risk environment.
How fast will we see results?+
Participants complete live work in every session, so activity can change during the first week. By day 45, rebuilt profiles, regular publishing, and buyer comments should be visible in the feed. Pipeline results still follow your sales cycle, and we set that timetable on day one.
What does it cost?+
The two-hour Workshop costs $4,500, the 45-day LinkedIn Activation Sprint costs $18,500, and the 90-day Marquee Program costs $30,000. Terms are a 50% deposit to schedule and the balance on delivery.
