Direct Response Copywriter | LinkedIn Ghostwriter | Email Marketing

Hi, I’m Rufat 👋 I’ve been writing copy that sells since 2015. I started in direct response, where you find out fast which sentence makes money, and I’ve managed over $18.5 million in paid media since. Today I put that same thinking into the two places brands and founders earn the most trust, the inbox and LinkedIn. I’m Top Rated Plus here on Upwork, which means I only take on clients I know I can deliver for. I work with DTC brands and B2B companies, plus founders and executives building a personal brand. Many of them are LinkedIn Top Voices, including executives who came out of Google, Amazon and LinkedIn itself. 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 I write and build email programs that turn subscribers into buyers. From the welcome sequence to the weekly issue, every email has one job and a clear next step. I manage lists averaging 100,000+ subscribers across Kit (ConvertKit), Beehiiv, Klaviyo, Brevo, Omnisend, Mailchimp and GoHighLevel, and I set up the automations so new leads get nurtured toward a sale or a booked call without anyone lifting a finger. 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻 𝗴𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 For founders and executives whose buyers check LinkedIn before every call. Each week we have a short check in, and I turn your stories and opinions into posts in your own voice. One client reached 5.3 million impressions in a year, another gets 15 inbound requests a week, and a third books 10 calls a week with his exact buyers. 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 Sales pages and ad copy built on the one lesson paid media taught me: with the same budget and the same audience, one sentence will outsell the one next to it every time. I write for the reader who is about to make a decision, and I test until the numbers say it works. 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀𝗹𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 For founders and creators who already have an audience, I write the newsletter people actually open. One weekly newsletter I run holds a 57% open rate on more than 70,000 subscribers. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 You work with me directly, I write every piece myself in your voice, and nothing goes live without your approval. I’m also ex military, and I run every project with the same discipline and organization the service taught me. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘀𝗮𝘆 ★★★★★ “Rufat ran our founder’s LinkedIn end to end for a full quarter and we never had to rewrite him. By week three our own partners couldn’t tell which posts were his.” Private equity firm ★★★★★ “He captures my voice naturally and delivers LinkedIn posts that are authentic, engaging, and on point. If you’re building a personal brand, you want him on your team.” Executive coach ★★★★★ “Rufat is the best LinkedIn marketer I’ve ever met. Couldn’t recommend him enough.” B2B personal branding client 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 Message me with what you’re working on and I’ll record a short Loom showing what I’d change first, before you spend anything.
