When to Use This Skill
- Lancer une machine de contenu LinkedIn/X - Cadence, review flow, posting engine
- Automatiser les DMs après engagement - Trigger → message → tag → booking
- Installer le retargeting - Email + Meta/IG pour ne jamais perdre un lead
- Créer un dashboard simple - Les 6 métriques qui comptent vraiment
- Connecter hooks → pipeline - Du commentaire au call booké
Methodology Foundation

Core Principle: "La distribution n'est pas un add-on. C'est le système nerveux de votre marketing. Sans wiring propre, même les meilleurs hooks meurent dans le vide."
Why This Matters: La plupart des créateurs produisent du contenu sans système de capture. Le Distribution Engine connecte chaque point de contact (post, comment, DM, email, ad) en un flux mesurable et optimisable.

How to Use
Créer un système de distribution from scratch
Je lance du contenu sur LinkedIn mais je n'ai aucun système de capture. Aide-moi à construire mon distribution engine.
Optimiser un système existant qui fuit
J'ai des posts qui performent mais je perds les leads entre le comment et le booking. Audite mon flow avec le skill distribution-engine.
Installer le tracking et le dashboard
Je veux savoir exactement combien de leads passent de post → DM → call → close. Configure mon tracking.
Instructions
Step 1: Audit des outils existants
## Inventory Check
**Email/CRM:**
[ ] ESP: _____________ (ConvertKit, Mailchimp, Brevo, etc.)
[ ] CRM: _____________ (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Notion, etc.)
**Automation:**
[ ] DM Tool: _____________ (Phantombuster, Dripify, manuel)
[ ] Calendar: _____________ (Calendly, Cal.com, HubSpot)
**Tracking:**
[ ] Analytics: _____________ (GA4, Plausible, Fathom)
[ ] Meta Pixel: [ ] Installé [ ] Non
[ ] LinkedIn Insight Tag: [ ] Installé [ ] Non
**Content:**
[ ] Posting queue: _____________ (Buffer, Hypefury, manuel)
[ ] Link shortener: _____________ (Short.io, Bitly, none)
**Access this week:**
[ ] ESP [ ] Calendar [ ] DM tool [ ] Analytics [ ] Ad Manager
Why each matters:
- ESP → Nurture automation + deliverability
- CRM → Lead tracking + handoff to sales
- DM Tool → Speed of response après engagement
- Pixels → Retargeting des visiteurs non-convertis
- Calendar → Friction-free booking
Step 2: Posting Engine Design
## Posting Engine v1
**Who posts:**
[ ] Founder only (personal brand)
[ ] Founder + team member (amplification)
[ ] Team via queue (scaled content)
**Platform priority:**
1. _____________ (primary - usually LinkedIn)
2. _____________ (secondary - X, newsletter, etc.)
**Cadence:**
- Primary: ___ posts/week
- Secondary: ___ posts/week
- Stories/ephemeral: ___ /week
**Review flow:**
[ ] Draft → Self-review → Post
[ ] Draft → Peer review → Schedule
[ ] AI draft → Human edit → Schedule
**Best slots (test these):**
- LinkedIn: Tue-Thu 7-9am, 12pm, 5-6pm local ICP time
- X: Varies by audience, test 4 slots
**Content mix (per 4 posts):**
- 1 Comment-magnet (engagement driver)
- 1 Proof/case study (credibility)
- 1 POV/insight (thought leadership)
- 1 Soft CTA (booking/lead magnet)
Step 3: DM Delivery System
## DM Delivery Map
**Trigger → Message → Action**
1. **Comment with keyword** (e.g., "MAP", "GUIDE", "YES")
→ Auto-DM: "[Asset] + starter question"
→ Tag: lead_commented
→ Action: Add to nurture sequence
2. **Profile visit** (if tool allows)
→ Manual or auto DM: "Saw you checked us out..."
→ Tag: profile_visitor
3. **Post engagement** (like/repost without comment)
→ Soft DM after 24h: "Thanks for engaging..."
→ Tag: warm_lead
**DM Templates (3 tones):**
**Friendly:**
"Hey [name]! Saw your comment — here's the [asset] as promised.
Quick Q: What's your biggest challenge with [topic] right now?"
**Direct:**
"[Asset] link: [URL]
One question: Are you actively trying to fix [problem] or just researching?"
**Curious:**
"Sent! Curious — what made you comment on that post specifically?"
**Rules:**
- Respond within 2h during business hours
- Max 2 follow-ups if no reply
- Always end with a question (keeps thread alive)
- Tag everything for segmentation
Step 4: Retargeting Setup
## Retargeting v1 (Never Lose a Lead)
**Layer 1: Email (3-touch minimum)**
- Touch 1: Value delivery (lead magnet, insight)
- Touch 2: Proof/case (social proof, numbers)
- Touch 3: Soft invite (booking, VSL)
**Layer 2: Meta/IG Retargeting**
- Audience: Website visitors 7-30 days
- Exclude: Already booked / customers
- Creative: 3 variants (proof, POV, invite)
- Budget: $5-20/day to start
**Layer 3: LinkedIn (optional)**
- Insight Tag on key pages (VSL, booking)
- Matched audience from email list
- Thought leader ads (boost organic posts)
**Pixel placement:**
- Homepage: awareness
- VSL/Sales page: intent
- Booking page: high intent
- Thank you page: conversion (exclude from retargeting)
Step 5: Event Map + UTMs
## Event Naming (Creative, Not Generic)
**Standard events → Story-driven names:**
- page_view → entered_universe
- scroll_50 → reading_deep
- video_play → watching_proof
- cta_click → raised_hand
- form_start → committing
- form_complete → opted_in
- book_click → booking_intent
- booked_call → pipeline_added
- showed_up → serious_buyer
- closed_won → customer_born
**UTM Structure:**
?utm_source=[platform]
&utm_medium=[content_type]
&utm_campaign=[campaign_name]
&utm_content=[specific_post_id]
**Examples:**
- LinkedIn comment-magnet post:
`?utm_source=linkedin&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=lead_magnet_jan&utm_content=hook_v1`
- Email nurture touch 2:
`?utm_source=email&utm_medium=nurture&utm_campaign=evergreen&utm_content=proof_email`
- Meta retargeting ad:
`?utm_source=meta&utm_medium=retargeting&utm_campaign=vsl_push&utm_content=testimonial_ad`
Step 6: Mini Dashboard (6 Metrics)
## Daily Dashboard
| Metric | Source | Target | Red Flag |
|--------|--------|--------|----------|
| **Impressions** | LinkedIn/X analytics | Trending up | -30% WoW |
| **Engagement Rate** | (likes+comments)/impressions | >3% | <1.5% |
| **DMs Sent** | DM tool or manual count | X/day | 0 for 2+ days |
| **Leads Captured** | CRM/ESP | X/week | <50% of target |
| **Calls Booked** | Calendar | X/week | <30% of leads |
| **Show Rate** | Calendar + CRM | >75% | <60% |
**Weekly Review Questions:**
1. Which post drove most DMs this week?
2. What's the comment → DM → book conversion?
3. Which retargeting creative is winning?
4. Where's the biggest drop-off in the funnel?
**Monthly Actions:**
- Prune dead automations
- Refresh retargeting audiences
- Test 1 unconventional distribution play

Troubleshooting

|---|
| Posts get views, no comments | Hook not comment-worthy | Add explicit CTA ("Comment X if...") |
| Comments but no DMs sent | Automation broken or too slow | Check tool, reduce delay |
| DMs sent, no replies | Message too salesy | Lead with value, end with question |
| Leads but no bookings | Friction in booking flow | Simplify, add calendar link in DM |
| Bookings but no-shows | Weak reminders | Add SMS, value reminder in email |
| Retargeting not working | Pixel not firing | Use Meta Pixel Helper to debug |
Creative Distribution Plays
Beyond standard posting:
- Comment-first strategy - Comment on ICP posts before posting yourself
- Partner post swaps - Cross-promote with complementary creators
- Dark posts in communities - Share in private groups, not just feed
- Podcast guesting → content - Repurpose appearances as posts
- Event-triggered outreach - DM people who engage with competitors
- Newsletter sponsorships - Reach audiences without building them
