How a Freelance Marketer Used a LinkedIn Client Spotlight to Land Retainers

In episode 53 of Freelance Marketing with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how freelance marketer Jenna Park landed a $4,000 monthly retainer by using a LinkedIn Client Spotlight series. Jenna, a B2B content marketer, created a weekly LinkedIn post highlighting a specific challenge she solved for a past client—naming the industry but not the company—and then tagged a dream client in the comments. Lucas breaks down the exact structure: a problem paragraph, a results paragraph, and a question for the audience. Luna shares how Jenna followed up by sending the spotlight as a direct message to prospects, leading to three discovery calls in two weeks. They discuss why this works better than standard case studies: it's public, social-proofed, and starts a conversation instead of ending one. Plus, they tie the topic to supporting the show—acknowledging that if these practical marketing strategies have helped listeners land retainers, listener support keeps the podcast ad-free and independent. Links to Jenna's actual LinkedIn post and the spotlight template are in the show notes. #FreelanceMarketing #LinkedInMarketing #ClientSpotlight #RetainerStrategy #B2BMarketing #ContentMarketing #SocialSelling #JennaPark #CaseStudy #LeadGeneration #Pitching #FreelancerTips #MarketingStrategy #BusinessDevelopment #LinkedInTips #Consulting #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
