About Daren Colbert

I write LinkedIn posts people want to read. Hand-crafted, human-made. 1M+ impressions across clients in 2026. Dad to the coolest toddler on this side of the Mississippi.

I got my start in writing the way all the greats do... Getting ratted out by my classmate. Back in elementary school, my friends and I ran an underground comic book ring. We drew panels during class, illustrated our classmates as the characters (sometimes a bit too vividly), and shared our “issues” during recess. One day, Lauren decided we were a little *too* creative for our own good. We were shut down before we could hit mass distribution. But the spark stuck. In 2015, I turned to Instagram. I spent my days posting minimalist poetry, with the goal to simply write how I felt and give voice to anyone who might feel the same. Four years later, that turned into a community of 114,000 readers. One follower even tattooed one of my poems on her ribs. That’s when my "oh sh*t" moment finally came. That these words did a whole lot more than tell stories. They built relationships—made connections that cut through the superficiality we often associate with social media. Now, I use those experiences and passion to create content for founders who want to strip away the BS and get down to brass tacks—the kind that builds connection and makes people buy. Here are some of my clients' wins to really swoon you: > Drove 200,000+ impressions and 1,000+ followers for B2B founders in fintech and MarTech in under 90 days through LinkedIn content strategy. > Increased a client's engagement rate by 500% since March 2026, with 39% of his audience falling within his direct ICP. > LinkedIn thought leadership content directly led to a clean-tech CEO's placement in The Guardian. Outside of writing, I love reading—especially thrillers and detective novels. That, and being a dad to the coolest toddler on the planet. If you’re someone who still believes good content should *feel* good (and not just check a box), we’ll probably get along great. And if you're still reading this, let’s connect. Worst case, we trade memes and childhood trauma. Best case, we work together and make something pretty freaking cool.

  • I swore I wouldn’t have kids until my 30s. I’m 29 years old. I’m the father of the most curious and ornery 2-year-old on this side of the Mississippi. My ears have scars from his incessant need to pull on them; I can’t remember the last time I slept past 7 AM on a Saturday or didn’t find some unexplained stain on my clothes. And I wouldn’t trade it for a damn thing. You see, something interesting happens after having children. Everything you thought mattered couldn’t amount to less, and every insignificant moment now means the most. I have way less time, but I’m much more focused. I’m always exhausted, yet I have the purpose to push through. Now, this isn’t propaganda for you all to have kids. More of a rumination on how we have such a specific view of how the world should work when we’re young, only to discover it’s nowhere close to what we envisioned. All this to say, I hope we all open ourselves up to possibility. We may not live every life we hope to live, but I am sure the lives we do live will fulfill us in ways we never imagined.

  • One founder ghosted me after saying he could do the same for less with ChatGPT. Another founder got placement in The Guardian due to his LinkedIn content. The biggest difference: the second founder committed to at least 90 days. Posting on LinkedIn isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme. The people who go into this believing that are the same ones paying $997 for a playbook you could find with a simple Google search. The only thing this mentality equals is a higher chance of frustration and, ultimately, burnout. The content game takes time. It takes patience. It takes a certain level of masochism to continue posting, even when you’re getting 1 to 2 likes and a comment—if you’re lucky. Some clients embrace this and end up getting placed in publications like The Guardian. Others end up churning after a month, wondering why they’re paying me when they could do this with Claude for much cheaper. That’s why I tell anyone I work with to give this experiment at least 90 days. The likes, comments, and followers are simply a byproduct of the underlying foundation you’re building: trust. You can’t cheat that.

  • It sucks, but there are a lot of C+ writers beating you out for work because they’re not making writing their main focus. Founders don’t care about how well you write. Just look how many people are using ChatGPT or Claude. What they care about is minimizing friction. C-suite execs don’t want to spend time writing when they could be building their business strategy for the next 5 years. They don’t want to stress about brainstorming post topics when they have to prep for board meetings. They won’t stick with LinkedIn if it means adding another job to their plate. So much of your job as a ghostwriter is done before a single word hits the page. Founders need to know you’ll handle the content process from idea to delivery to execution. Because the last thing they want to do is to chase *you* down to get this engine up and running. The ghostwriters I know who get consistent work excel in these 3 areas: 1/ Research  2/ Communication  3/ Likability It’s a simple list, but simple doesn’t mean easy. Excelling in these areas is how you go from an ideal partner to indispensable.
