I thought my personal brand drove the traffic. I was wrong.

We had been trying to sell to marketers. It was not working — they already had tools, opinions, and a thousand alternatives. Mid-month we changed the line at the top of the page to something embarrassingly simple: "The marketing software for people who aren't marketers."

Same product. Same traffic. Same week — demo bookings went from roughly one a week to one a day. We also tweaked the button label ("Book a call" not "Book a demo"). But the positioning shift is what moved the needle: we stopped talking to marketers and started talking to the people who actually need us.

I'm not abandoning the personal brand — it still opens doors the app can't. But the posting schedule flips: the app channels get the daily slots, and I post when I actually have something to say. Which, fittingly, is exactly what we tell our customers to do.
