LinkedIn Lead Magnet Funnel Builder
A service or SaaS that helps B2B founders build, distribute, and track LinkedIn-native lead magnets to convert LinkedIn audiences into segmented email lists.
01 THE IDEA
Greg describes a specific and repeatable monetization system: create valuable lead magnets (databases, templates, toolkits), post on LinkedIn without links initially, wait for 150-200 likes in 4 hours, then edit the post to add the link (bypassing LinkedIn's suppression algorithm), and funnel sign-ups into ConvertKit for segmented nurture sequences. He got 5,000 downloads of a startup ideas database in 30 days from this method alone.
A productized service or lightweight SaaS could automate and manage this entire workflow: lead magnet ideation and creation assistance, post scheduling, the timing-based link-edit reminder system, ConvertKit/email platform integration, and performance analytics. The 'post-then-edit' hack is a process gap that a tool could systematize. Target market is the same LinkedIn-active founders and consultants who want to build lists but don't know the mechanics.

03 THE VERDICT
The underlying insight is real and actionable, but building a SaaS around a specific LinkedIn algorithm quirk is risky — LinkedIn could change their suppression rules at any time. The safer play is a productized service that bundles lead magnet creation, distribution strategy, and email list building rather than a software tool dependent on one platform behavior. Strong demand exists, but validate with a service offering before investing in SaaS infrastructure.
Verdict: MAYBE — read why above. Still convinced? A vetted builder can pressure-test the scope before you commit.
