The Case
Today, we function as Arri’s marketing partner, providing ongoing strategic guidance, campaign management, content creation, and audience development. Our collaboration demonstrates how sixtynine.agency helps subject-matter experts transition from in-person consulting to scalable digital products through integrated brand strategy and multi-channel marketing execution.
Brand voice development and content strategy
Arri’s decades of in-person authority needed to translate seamlessly into digital content without losing the direct, action-oriented tone that makes his approach distinctive. Generic marketing copy would undermine the very credibility his program is built on.
What we did:
Developed comprehensive brand voice guidelines capturing Arri’s direct, authoritative communication style
Established key terminology framework: “mastery over human dynamics” rather than generic EQ language, “transforming good willing people into a delivering team” as core promise
Created a content style guide covering strategic use of bold text, capitalisation for emphasis, short impactful paragraphs, and questioning approaches
Built a content library drawing from Arri’s video transcripts, course materials, homework exercises, and documented frameworks across all five modules
Mapped the signature WHAT vs HOW framework, friction-courage-vulnerability models, and trust definitions into reusable content pillars
From visibility to enrolment: the LinkedIn and webinar funnel
The Human Behaviour Drives Results programme is a significant investment, not an impulse buy. Leaders don’t purchase a comprehensive EQ programme from a single ad or post. They need to experience Arri’s expertise first, build trust in his methodology, and recognise the gap between where their team is and where it could be. This required a multi-stage approach: use LinkedIn to build visibility and drive webinar registrations, then use webinars to give prospects a genuine taste of Arri’s approach, warming them toward a considered purchase decision.
Stage 1: Using LinkedIn to build visibility and drive webinar registrations
LinkedIn serves as the top of the funnel: the place where decision-makers first encounter Arri Pauw. The goal is not to sell the course directly, but to establish Arri’s credibility and create enough interest for prospects to register for a webinar.
Organic content:
Managed ongoing content creation for both Arri’s personal LinkedIn profile and the HBDR company page
Developed a posting strategy optimised for peak engagement times
Implemented LinkedIn page growth tactics to build audience in primary markets
Paid advertising
Managed monthly LinkedIn advertising campaigns with a single, clear objective: drive webinar registrations from qualified decision-makers
Created targeted campaigns reaching CEOs, Managing Directors, HR Directors, and Talent Development Managers
Developed targeting based on industry and geographic markets
Optimised campaign performance on data with registrations as the primary success metric.
Stage 2: Webinars as a way to warm prospects toward purchase
Once a prospect registers through LinkedIn, the webinar acts as the conversion mechanism. A leader who attends a webinar and recognises their own team’s challenges in Arri’s examples is far more likely to invest in the programme than someone who only saw an ad. The webinar bridges the gap between “interesting content” and “I need this for my team.”
What we did:
Designed and managed end-to-end webinar campaigns with multi-touchpoint promotion sequences leading up to each event
Created webinar registration pages, reminder sequences, and post-event follow-up flows
Developed targeted promotion reaching different audience segments: new prospects, previous attendees, no-shows, and newsletter subscribers
Coordinated technical setup including automatic recording, platform logistics, and language-appropriate materials
Analysed performance data to optimise show-up rates and post-webinar conversion paths
Email marketing automation
Converting webinar attendees and website visitors into course participants required sophisticated email sequences that maintained Arri’s personal tone while guiding prospects through a considered purchase decision.
Designed comprehensive email sequences within Kajabi: welcome flows, post-purchase confirmations, engagement check-ins, value reminders, and cross-sell pathways
Created trigger-based automation responding to user behaviour: purchase events, lesson completions, and inactivity periods
Developed separate flows for each purchase pathway and build upsell sequences guiding buyers towards expanded packages
Maintained Arri’s distinctive voice throughout all automated communications, reviewed and refined through collaborative editing with Arri himself
B2B enterprise outreach strategy
Beyond individual course sales, a significant revenue opportunity existed in enterprise licensing: organisations purchasing 20 to 100+ licences for their teams. This required a fundamentally different approach: relationship-building over immediate conversions, longer lead times and multi-stakeholder engagement.
What we did:
Defined target company profiles
Developed B2B landing page strategy specifically targeting organisations wanting team-wide EQ transformation
Created multi-channel outreach sequences: LinkedIn first, then email as fallback, with emphasis on relationship building
Video content and social media production
What we did:
Developed social media content calendars maintaining consistent posting schedules across platforms
Edited platform-optimised content formats for LinkedIn posts, webinar promotions, and advertising creatives
Built a reusable content library from course transcripts, homework materials, and Arri’s documented case studies spanning all five programme modules
