On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Colin Hirdman, the antidote to automated mediocrity. As a lifelong entrepreneur and co-founder of Monkey Island Ventures, he has spent two decades scaling SaaS tools, digital agencies, and now Rainmaker – a ‘white-glove’ service that ethically automates LinkedIn outreach to turn connections into revenue. Colin discusses Rainmaker’s ‘Authentic Engine’ framework: 10-30% connection rates, campaigns tailored to micro-audiences, and why human-driven strategies still dominate AI in B2B growth. As well as why he targets 25 people/day — and how even solo founders can replicate this, the ‘criminal justice grad’ who turned entrepreneur, accidently and sold his first startup days after college, and LinkedIn’s automation guardrails: What’s ‘ethical’ vs. what gets you banned. KEY TAKEAWAYS I’ve done a lot of growth hacking through email and LinkedIn, but I got better results through LinkedIn and ended up building out a software and process for myself. Rainmaker was born through me making it available to other businesses. But, you don’t need me or rainmaker to do any of the things we discuss on this podcast, you can do it manually. You have to be authentic on LinkedIn, both as yourself as well as the brands you represent. You should also have an educational mindset – no one wants to be sold to on LinkedIn, but almost everyone is willing to be educated – and an experimentation mindset, trying different features and functions of LinkedIn, stack the things that work and set aside the things that don’t. Understand the pains an barriers that you prospects are trying to overcome and know what it is that you can teach them. Growth hacks: LinkedIn Events – if you have a direct competitor, industry or organisation putting on a LinkedIn Event that your business solves for, if you attend that event you can see everyone else who attended that event and create a prospects list. Use people who are big in your area as proxies – use people’s open connections to see all first connections to her, second connections to you and is in your area, and begin connecting to them Building out your first connections is critical. I reach out to 15 people per day Monday-Friday during normal working hours. That gives you 500 people per month, which is below LinkedIn’s limits. Typically, you’ll get a 20% connection rate. Within 30 days of sending an invite, and they haven’t connected, withdraw the invite. It’s good hygiene, but after 3 weeks you can reach out to them again. Everything you do after that only gets better and has bigger possibilities as your audience grows. BEST MOMENTS ‘There’s lots of opportunity to engage with you prospects on LinkedIn in ways that are valuable for relationship building and set you up as a thought leader.’‘People undervalue the value of being a first connection, when you’re a first connection you can see all kids of information about them, direct message them, and use other features and functions to engage with them.’‘I typically build my audience through Sales Navigator – a tool within LinkedIn that allows you to hone in on audiences..’‘If you’re using automation that is in any way inauthentic it won’t work, you wouldn’t immediately set up a meeting with someone you just met, I wish people would stop, it’s lazy.’ ABOUT THE GUEST Colin Hirdman is a lifelong entrepreneur, startup advocate, and visionary behind Rainmaker, a platform revolutionizing LinkedIn’s growth strategies through its "Authentic Engine." As co-founder of Monkey Island Ventures, a venture studio launched in 2007 with childhood friends, Colin has spent nearly two decades fostering tech innovation and scaling ventures like SaaS tools, digital marketing agencies, and software development firms. His passion lies in unlocking the power of authentic relationship-building—evidenced by Rainmaker’s mission to help founders, coaches, and sales teams expand their networks, generate leads, and close deals ethically on LinkedIn. A Minnesota native, Colin’s journey began with selling his first startup (launched just days after college) and evolved into mentoring entrepreneurs through actionable strategies like LinkedIn automation, audience targeting via Sales Navigator, and educational outreach. His philosophy blends authenticity, experimentation, and a focus on solving audience pain points—principles he shares as a board member of MNblockchain and a sought-after voice in B2B growth. When not advising startups or hosting LinkedIn livestreams, Colin champions the entrepreneurial spirit, proving that even a criminal justice graduate-turned-accidental-founder can redefine 21st-century scaling.

Bryan mentions that having guests may not position you as an expert, but rather as someone who can find experts. Do you agree with this? Why or why not? Mike talks about crafting a legacy through his podcast. What does “crafting a legacy” mean to you when it comes to podcasting or other creative work? The hosts discuss the value of bringing on unique guests, such as creatives and people behind the scenes, instead of just celebrity interviews. What kind of guests do you find most compelling in podcasts, and why? What are the potential benefits and drawbacks of using guest reservation or guest-search services for podcasting, according to the hosts' experiences? Bryan and Mike both emphasize the importance of listening to your own show. How do you think regularly reviewing your own work can help you grow as a podcaster or creator? Do you think there is too much focus on finding “growth hacks” in podcasting (or other fields)? Why do you think this mindset is so prevalent? Mike mentions finding “light bulb moments” with guests. What strategies can podcasters use to uncover these moments in their own interviews? How do you personally balance the desire for efficiency (life hacks, shortcuts, tools) with the value of putting in time and effort to improve your podcast or project? What alternative podcast formats, other than interviews, do you enjoy or think could be successful?

It's frustrating when a product that once flew off the shelves suddenly seems to stall. As an Amazon seller, it's easy to feel like the marketplace is working against you, but often, the problem lies in missing opportunities to tweak and optimize. Competitors are constantly evolving, and understanding their strategies while diving deep into buyer behavior can reveal hidden gaps. Sometimes, it's not about the product itself, but how you fine-tune everything behind the scenes that can turn things around. Colin Raja is an e-commerce expert and growth strategist with a background in software development and data engineering. He's built multiple seven-figure Amazon brands, specializing in using data to drive business growth. Today, Colin shares his data-driven approach to Amazon product launches, explaining how he helped a brand scale from $50,000 to $500,000 in monthly sales. His strategies focus on optimizing both front-end and back-end processes, understanding buyer psychology, and conducting detailed competitive analysis. Stay tuned!

This week I sat down with the Head of Instagram & Threads, Adam Mosseri (no biggie).It was a pretty personal one for me, as I've been on this app since right at the beginning, every update, every logo, every new feature, and I even remember the moment 15 second videos came along, it felt like a whole new world.So many of us use Instagram every single day, whether that's to build a business, create incredible content or just send memes to your mate. So I knew I had to get answers from Adam on the app's evolution, what 'the algorithm' actually means, the key metrics to tracks, and who he thinks is killing it at the moment.We also had a great chat about productivity when you're in the top job, and why (in his words) 'not being great at anything' was the key to his success.
