Hey there, my name is Brad Smith, owner of Automationlinks. I've been doing this marketing for the last 10 years and worked with over 200 brands. I'm going to share exactly how we used X organic posts and created a complete sales funnel that doubled a software as a service business in just one month.

This case study breaks down the exact system we implemented, from the strategic organic posts that brought in ideal customers to the automated follow-up sequence that converted visitors into paying customers at rates of 15-20% (sometimes even 30%).


What Was the Challenge?

This software as a service company was struggling with typical SaaS conversion problems. They were getting traffic to their sales page, but only seeing conversion rates of less than 5%. Out of 180 people hitting their sales page, only 9 were actually making a purchase or signing up for a trial.


The business needed a systematic approach to:

  • Generate more qualified leads through organic content
  • Nurture prospects who didn't convert immediately
  • Create multiple touchpoints to build trust and familiarity
  • Automate the follow-up process to maximize conversions


How We Built the Complete Sales Funnel System

Phase 1: Strategic X Organic Posts

The foundation of this entire system started with really strategic posts organically. These weren't random posts - they were designed to bring in our ideal customer.


The Pin Tweet Strategy: We started with a pin tweet that became one of our best performers. This post introduced the brand, told their story, gave education, and provided value. When somebody first saw that organic tweet, they were more likely to follow, leave a comment, or engage.


Strategic Post Types: We developed specific post ideas designed to get people to:

  • Leave a comment
  • Send a DM
  • Trigger the chatbot to DM them automatically


For the full system implementation, we created example posts that could be customized using AI or copied directly. The key was making posts like "this has saved me and my team this much time and me personally saved this much money"  filling in real, honest information that would get people to engage.


Phase 2: Automated DM and Chatbot System

Once we got people engaging with the organic posts, the next step was getting them into our chatbot system. We set up auto DMs that would automatically reach out to people who engaged with specific posts.

High-Value Content Delivery: For this software company, we provided something of high value through the chatbot:

  • Detailed videos and screen shares
  • Comprehensive guides
  • AI prompts that people could use
  • Content that showed interest in their software


This wasn't just basic lead magnets - we gave substantial value that demonstrated the software's capabilities and got people interested in learning more.


Phase 3: Landing Page with Embedded YouTube Video

Once someone showed interest through the chatbot, we directed them to a landing page that delivered what we promised them. But here's the crucial element: we embedded a YouTube video on the sales page.

This YouTube video served multiple purposes:

  • Provided the promised value
  • Built trust through video content
  • Created a retargeting audience for YouTube ads
  • Allowed us to track engagement for follow-up


The landing page also gave visitors options to sign up for a free trial or purchase the full plan, but we knew most people wouldn't convert immediately.


Phase 4: Email Follow-Up Sequence

Since only 9 out of 180 people initially converted, we implemented a systematic email follow-up sequence. We sent a couple of reminder emails to get people to come back to the sales page and reconsider their decision.


Case Study Insight: Email follow-up increased our conversion opportunities significantly
What Happened
: Multiple touchpoints kept the software top-of-mind for prospects
Time to Results
: Email sequences began converting within days
Tools/Methods Used
: Automated email series triggered by landing page visits


Phase 5: Retargeting Ad Strategy

This is where the magic really happened. We set up both YouTube ads and X ads for retargeting people who had engaged with our content.


  • YouTube Retargeting: Since we embedded a YouTube video on the landing page, we could show organic YouTube videos and YouTube ads to people who watched our content. This created a continuous cycle of value and exposure.
  • X Retargeting: If people engaged or followed on X, we showed them retargeting ads on X to remind them to come back and see more posts. The key was taking some of the best-performing organic posts and turning them into retargeting ads, as long as they were relevant.
  • Critical Rule: We made sure the retargeting ads didn't look completely different from what people first saw in the organic posts or what we promised them. Everything had to resonate and be relatable so they remembered the brand.


Phase 6: Blog Content and Newsletter Integration

We continued the follow-up pattern by sending emails that directed people to blog pages. These blog pages allowed visitors to either join the newsletter or get redirected back to the sales page on email number three.

The blog content provided additional value while keeping the software solution top-of-mind, creating another touchpoint in our comprehensive follow-up system.


What Results Did We Achieve?

  • Case Study Insight: Systematic follow-up transformed conversion rates from under 5% to 15-20% (sometimes 30%)
    What Happened
    : The complete funnel system doubled the business in one month
  • Time to Results: Full system showed results within 30 days
  • Tools/Methods Used: X organic posts, automated DMs, email sequences, YouTube and X retargeting


The transformation came from creating a system where people went from a less than 5% conversion rate to 15-20% (sometimes 30%) conversion rate once they liked, trusted, and knew the brand.


Key Performance Indicators:

  • Business revenue doubled in first month
  • Conversion rates increased 3-6x through systematic follow-up
  • Multiple touchpoints created familiarity and trust
  • Automated systems reduced manual follow-up effort
  • Retargeting ads maintained continuous brand exposure


The Strategic Framework That Made This Work

The success came from understanding that most people don't buy immediately. Instead of accepting the low initial conversion rate, we built a system that continued providing value and maintaining contact for months (and hopefully years).


The Complete Pattern:

  1. Strategic organic posts provide value and education
  2. Engagement triggers automated DM sequences
  3. High-value content builds interest and trust
  4. Landing pages with embedded videos create retargeting opportunities
  5. Email follow-up maintains contact with prospects
  6. Retargeting ads on X and YouTube reinforce the message
  7. Blog content and newsletters provide ongoing value
  8. Systematic follow-up converts prospects when they're ready


Critical Success Factor: Every piece of content focused on providing value, giving something away for free, and building relationships rather than immediate selling.


For more insights on building comprehensive X advertising strategies, this case study demonstrates the power of organic content combined with systematic follow-up.


The key to implementing a similar system is understanding that social media advertising works best when you build relationships through value first, then use automation to maintain those relationships consistently.


Case Study Summary and Next Steps

This case study proves that strategic X organic posting combined with systematic follow-up can dramatically transform business results. By moving from isolated social media posts to a comprehensive funnel system, this SaaS company doubled their business in one month and increased conversion rates by 3-6x.

Remember, this isn't about quick wins - it's about building a systematic approach that provides ongoing value and converts prospects into customers when they're ready to buy.

  • What made the organic X posts so effective for generating leads?

    The posts worked because they introduced the brand, told their story, gave education, and provided value. When somebody first saw that organic tweet, they were more likely to follow, leave a comment, or engage. The key was being strategic about posts that would get people to DM or trigger automated responses.

  • How did the chatbot DM system work for this SaaS company?

    We set up auto DMs that would reach out to people who engaged with specific posts. For this software company, we provided high-value content through the chatbot including videos, screen shares, guides, and AI prompts that demonstrated the software's value and got people interested in learning more.

  • Why was embedding a YouTube video on the landing page so important?

    The YouTube video served multiple purposes - it delivered promised value, built trust, created a retargeting audience for YouTube ads, and allowed us to track engagement for follow-up. This single element enabled our entire retargeting strategy on both YouTube and the landing page.

  • How long did it take to see results from this system?

    The business doubled in just one month. The email sequences began converting within days, and the full system showed measurable results within 30 days of implementation. The key was having all components working together systematically.

  • What was the biggest factor in improving conversion rates from 5% to 30%?

    The systematic follow-up pattern made the difference. Instead of accepting low initial conversion rates, we built a system that continued providing value through emails, retargeting ads, blog content, and newsletters for months. People converted when they liked, trusted, and knew the brand.

  • How did you ensure retargeting ads didn't seem disconnected from organic posts?

    We made sure retargeting ads didn't look completely different from what people first saw in organic posts or what we promised them. We took the best-performing organic posts and turned them into retargeting ads, keeping everything relevant and relatable so people remembered the brand.

  • What tools were essential for implementing this complete system?

    The system required X organic posting capabilities, automated DM tools, email automation, YouTube video hosting, landing page creation, and retargeting capabilities on both X and YouTube. For automation, I recommend tools like HypeFury for X posting automation and GoHighLevel for CRM and email automation.

  • Can this system work for other types of businesses beyond SaaS?

    Absolutely. The framework works for any business because it focuses on providing value, building relationships, and systematic follow-up. The content and offerings would change based on the business type, but the pattern of organic content → engagement → value delivery → follow-up → retargeting remains effective.

  • How often should you continue the follow-up pattern?

    We continued this pattern for months and hopefully years. The goal is ongoing relationship building, not just immediate conversion. The systematic approach means people can convert when they're ready, not just when you first reach them.

  • What's the most important lesson for businesses wanting to implement this system?

    Set up really strong organic posts with the goal to provide value, provide education, and give something away for free where people want to DM you or want you to DM them. Get them into your ecosystem, send automated emails, use retargeting ads, and make it all about providing value. Eventually they'll convert at much higher rates once they like, trust, and know you.
