The Hidden Pipeline™: Get Sales Calls From the Audience You Already Have
MARKETING — Sep 15, 2026
DixonBaxi—Paradiso Week, London 2024
You need more leads. But getting more leads usually means doing more — more content, more cold email, more ads, more events. More work just to get more people into the funnel.
Before you go hunting for new leads, let’s make some money from the audience you already have. There are probably potential clients sitting inside your email list, LinkedIn network, old leads, and past conversations right now. They know who you are. They’re just not raising their hands.
In this workshop, you’ll get 5 proven Hand-Raiser Tactics you can deploy whenever your pipeline looks thin:
The “Looking For” Post — get the right people identifying themselves
The 9-Word Reactivation Email — wake up old leads without a giant nurture sequence
The Social Media Caption — get prospects thinking “wait, I need help with this”
The Resource Offer — turn something you’ve already made into a reason to raise a hand
The Open Slots Post — bring the quiet ones into a conversation now
This isn’t a workshop where you spend an hour taking notes and add 17 more things to your marketing to-do list. You’ll pick at least one tactic, build it with me, and put it into market before we finish. You won’t leave with five ideas — you’ll leave with one working and four more ready to go.
Includes: Plug-and-play templates for all 5 tactics, the Hand-Raiser Funnel, the Pipeline Calendar Workflow, your Action Plan, and lifetime access to the recording.

How to Generate Leads on LinkedIn: The Workshop
SALES — OCT 15, 2026
DixonBaxi—Paradiso Week, London 2024
ver the last few years, I've doubled my following on LinkedIn, gotten millions of impressions, and generated tens of thousands of dollars in business through LinkedIn marketing.
Agency owners and freelancers tell me all the time that they don't know how to market themselves on LinkedIn. That changes after this workshop.
In this workshop, you're going to learn three things:
What most agency owners and freelancers get wrong about LinkedIn marketing
How to grow your audience so that you're consistently adding new qualified leads to your pipeline every single month
How to write content quickly that resonates with your ideal audience
Space is limited, and I've reduced the price tag on this one from my other workshops because I want it to spread as far as possible — but it's not free. A little skin in the game, using your credit card, makes it more likely you'll take action instead of just collecting information. Results come from taking action.
Includes: Full recording, worksheet PDF, and all workshop resources.

I doubled my quote. The client accepted. I had an issue with low prices, attracting bad clients. Marko helped me see that. Raising my prices got rid of those clients, and it was for the best. One thing that stands out is a project where I doubled my quote on Marko's suggestion. The client accepted, and that alone paid for his services.

A 100% increase in revenue without acquiring new clients. Before Marko, I didn't realise the untapped potential in my client relationships. We restructured my work efforts, which led to a staggering 100% increase in revenue without acquiring new clients. His guidance was instrumental in getting the largest budget I've ever proposed approved.

He made me go after bigger fish. It worked. As an entrepreneur in design strategy, I was often distracted by 'shiny objects'. Marko's support brought much-needed clarity. I've refined my approach to hosting my podcast, engaging more deeply with guests like Joe Foster of Reebok and Stefan Ytterborn of Cake.

Marko helped us to win multiple dream clients within 2 weeks of working together.

Presenting my artwork series thanks to all the work we've been doing with Marko, is the best thing that could happen to me.

Marko’s techniques fucking work. He helped us to sign our first big client on our terms. Today, we only work with big clients. Marko, god bless you.

He's walked the path he's guiding you on. He's not just a guy who's read a few books or come up with ideas in the shower. He's walked the path he's guiding you on, which makes a world of difference. Working with someone who's been in your shoes, who's navigated the journey themselves, that's invaluable.

Marko is a catalyst for change. His coaching and consulting transformed our business. It was an arduous process – not by his fault, but by our doubts and challenge to focus. Despite ourselves, he guided us through one of our driest seasons into our best years yet. Eighteen months after our first session, we've increased our revenue by nearly 2x, closing more deals with higher margins while continuing to attract better clients. Follow the program, put in the effort, and stick it out. Your business will never be the same.

While working with Marko, we got to the essence of what clients need and want to hear and how to integrate that into our website. Now, when we get on a call with new clients, they have a clearer picture of what to expect from us, which is a huge advantage because we can close even big deals faster.
Founder, The Scope

Marko has a great way of nailing down and seeing your potential. He keeps one motivated and is as excited about ones success almost as much as you. With his impressive experience in the creative world, his networking abilities and curiosity I will be back when I start to scale my business.I managed to sign on two clients with a third in the pipe and grow my network whilst under the guidance of Marko. Highly recommend. If you're on the fence - jump on a call it will be worth it.

Answers to struggles I'd had for years. He has delivered so much clarity and wisdom in a few weeks and has answered questions and addressed struggles that I've been dealing with for years. He knows the creative business and market inside and out. And he knows the weaknesses of creative business owners.
Founder, Raconteur

Marko helped me to be seen as an expert, not a vendor, and so win new projects without excessive pitches.
Founder, Licht & Stories

We only had one session with Marko. In that session, we received important impulses, which helped us to rethink and restructure some parts of our company. The positive effect for me personally was that I gained back a lot of time. But more importantly, the conversations with Marko felt like having a brother with a similar mindset.
Founder, HearDis!
Germany
The A.H.A. moment for us was when we were in a meeting with a big client, and he excepted all our terms. That was due to the positioning work we did with Marko. His techniques work. Today we are working only with big brands like Orange, Telecom, G.T.I., or Samsung. And we do it directly.
Co-Founder, Riift Studio

We have grown from a tiny studio to a huge one in just a year. And, I definitely have Marko's coaching to thank for that. Today, I can honestly say that I'm the founder of the biggest video marketing agency in the crypto space.

From a $20,000 ceiling to triple that. I simply didn't know what I didn't know! I knew we had the skills to sell 6-figure websites, but I couldn't find a way to break through on my own. We've moved from seeing $20,000 as our ceiling for website prices to confidently tripling that, understanding our worth and no longer feeling intimidated in rooms with high-end buyers.

Marko has a unique talent for identifying potential in business and relationships. As his new biz dev mentee, he has helped me build confidence as well as providing me with all the tools, education and guidance to thrive.
