Guest: Monika Liikamaa, Co-founder & Co-CEO @ Enfuce

What happens when you stop worrying about clicks and start focusing on the change you want to see in the world? You find your authentic voice. 

In this episode of Haamucast, Edward sits down with Monika Liikamaa, whose unfiltered approach to LinkedIn has turned her personal platform into a catalyst for meaningful conversations about climate action, fighting financial crime, and uplifting women in tech.

You'll hear:

👻 Why Monika's posts come from genuine frustration with injustice rather than a strategic content plan ("For fuck's sake, let's open the discussion on this")

👻 How she balances Enfuce's business content with her mission to amplify positive voices in a world obsessed with negative news

👻 The power of writing your own obituary instead of polishing your CV – and how it shapes the legacy you want to leave

👻 Why her sauna sessions at the cottage often lead to Sunday reflection posts (and why she has zero system for tracking performance)

👻 How she and her co-CEO complement each other perfectly – with Monika writing on LinkedIn while her partner hosts a podcast

Bonus: Monika shares her unapologetic approach to critics: "I'm 50, I really don't give a shit... If you don't like reading what I write, then don't. Either tune in or tune out – I really don't care."

Guest: Siiri Laaksonen, Co-founder & CEO @ TalentBee

What happens when you make founder-led content your #1 marketing strategy from day one? You build a business where everyone, not just founders, generates inbound leads. 

In this episode of Haamucast, Edward sits down with Siiri Laaksonen, who transformed her occasional employer branding posts into a systematic, company-wide content machine that's still TalentBee's primary growth engine three years later.

You'll hear: 

👻 How Siiri went from uncomfortable LinkedIn poster to confident CEO voice by embracing the "hui method" (post it, feel uncomfortable, and let it go) 

👻 Why each co-founder naturally carved out their own content territory—business growth, talent acquisition, and employer branding 

👻 The content formula that worked best: practical tips, strong contrarian opinions, and "old way vs. new way" frameworks 

👻 How Siiri's content evolved as she transitioned from employer branding expert to CEO (and why her old topics stopped working) 

👻 Why TalentBee extends their LinkedIn strategy beyond founders to every team member: creating multiple sources of inbound leads

Bonus: Siiri reveals the employer branding twist that makes this approach doubly effective: companies that help hiring managers build content attract talent because "people want to work with inspiring people on the team."

Guest: Emir Atli, Chief Revenue Officer @ HockeyStack

What happens when cold outbound fails and you have no ad budget as a bootstrapped startup? You turn to LinkedIn and build in public. In this episode of Haamucast, Edward sits down with Emir Atli, whose consistent LinkedIn strategy helped land HockeyStack's first customers, fueled their growth to Series A, and now drives millions in monthly revenue—all through his personal profile.

You'll hear: 

👻 Why Emir went from thinking LinkedIn was "cringe" to posting 5x per week (and how it landed their first 15 customers) 

👻 The content mix that took him from 5,000 to 30,000 followers in just 8 months 

👻 How he measures success beyond vanity metrics with a custom system tracking follower growth within their ICP 

👻 Why his team obsesses over the "one big post" each week that will drive 80% of their reach 

👻 The brutal truth about polarizing content—and why LinkedIn rewards comments over likes (even when posts get 200 comments but only 55 likes)

Bonus: Emir breaks down why deep technical dives flop for most people, and why "Yesterday I spoke to a CMO..." posts don't work anymore—plus the content sweet spot that's "deep enough but simple enough" to drive engagement.

Guest: Samuli, Co-founder @ Haamu.io

What if your salespeople worked the same way as your website?

That's the kind of hook that stops a scroll. In this episode of Haamucast, Edward sits down with fellow Haamu co-founder Samuli to break down the anatomy of a killer LinkedIn hook – those crucial first two lines that determine whether anyone will click "see more" or just keep scrolling.

You'll hear: 

👻 Why Samuli spends more time crafting the hook than writing the actual post (and how he uses AI to generate 20+ hook ideas for every post) 

👻 The two high-performing hook formulas: "crazy-sounding statements" vs. "story-based openings" that make readers need to know more 

👻 How to use job titles in your hooks to make specific people stop scrolling ("Most sales leaders I talk to daily think...") 

👻 The power of numbers in hooks – from growth metrics to meeting counts ("This is how we grew Haamu MRR from €10,000 to €30,000 in one month") 

👻 Why the "winners and losers" framework consistently delivers high engagement (and why he's using it more and more)

Bonus: Samuli disagrees with Adam Robinson's advice to ditch posts without great hooks – he believes there's always a killer hook hiding in a truly valuable post if you're willing to dig for it.

Guest: Mikko Seppä, Co-founder at HeadQ & Investor at Haamu

What happens when the media is no longer the gatekeeper of who gets heard? The audience takes control, and consistent voices win. 

In this episode of Haamucast, Edward sits down with Mikko Seppä, who built Advance B2B over a decade ago and has since turned his founder's influence into multiple successful ventures.

Now, as an investor in Haamu, Mikko breaks down why today's leaders have both a responsibility and opportunity to lead from the front.

You'll hear:

👻 Why influence has shifted from company logos to founder stories and how this levels the playing field

👻 How Mikko's personal brand helped him attract top talent, partnerships, and investment opportunities

👻 The everyday storytelling approach that outperforms polished corporate content

👻 Why transparent struggles and wins create emotional connection better than PR pieces

👻 A simple framework for getting started sharing product development decisions, customer wins, and daily challenges

Bonus: Mikko shares his favorite quote on building influence: "Without commitment, you'll never start, but without consistency, you'll never finish."

Guest: Adam Holmgren, Co-founder at Fibbler

What happens when you build the audience before the product?

You launch with traction.

In this episode of Haamucast, Edward Ford sits down with Adam Holmgren, a seasoned B2B marketer and co-founder of Fibbler, to talk about how he used founder-led content to bootstrap Fibbler from an MVP to 140+ paying customers in just 12 months.

Adam breaks down how his years of sharing LinkedIn ads insights and demand gen learnings paid off when it was time to go to market. And unlike many founders who start creating after launching, Adam flipped the script – building trust, audience, and momentum before day one.

You’ll hear:

👻 Why your personal brand can outgrow your startup – and how to scale both in sync

👻 How Adam used audience-first thinking to speed up product-market fit

👻 The content system that lets him post 5x/week while juggling a job, a startup, and two kids

👻 A simple framework for building your own content pillars (and avoiding the blank page panic)

👻 What to do if you’re too scared to post – and how comments can be your gateway drug

Bonus: Adam shares why it’s harder to market to personas you don’t understand – and why marketing to yourself (a.k.a. founder-to-ICP) can be a cheat code.

Guest: Adam Robinson, Founder & CEO at RB2B and retention.com

What happens when you build your brand before your product – and then aim it at the right audience?

You go from zero to $5M ARR with five people and no marketing team.

In this episode of Haamucast, Edward sits down with Adam Robinson, a true operator who turned founder-led content into the ultimate go-to-market engine. From swearing off social media to becoming one of the most followed B2B founders on LinkedIn, Adam shares the real story behind his meteoric rise – including the strategic (and accidental) moves that got him there.
