Your new LinkedIn banner, headline and Featured

Five options, each a different layout. Pick one number and use that option's banner, headline and Featured tile together. Every option points people to the paper you already offer, your burnover sector paper and early warning signs guide, with one keyword, your own word: “BURNOVER”. Each banner is also shown at real phone size, so you can see it reads.

Your plan

Who: NFP CEOs, EDs and People & Culture leads who keep losing good middle leaders to burnout.

The workshop: a private 90-minute breakfast, "Keep your best middle leaders", built on how Uniting Vic Tas built its own coaching toolkit with you so the capability stayed after you'd gone.

Your profile: every banner and headline tells the same burnout-turnover story. "BURNOVER" gets people your sector paper and guide, and the guide becomes item one on the workshop agenda.

Who gets what: the one-shot DM goes to anyone who likes, comments or connects. The workshop invites go to your target list of NFP CEOs and P&C leads. Never both to the same person in the same week.

How to put it live

  1. Pick one option below.
  2. Upload the banner. It's already 1584 × 396.
  3. Paste the headline into Edit intro. The highlighted part is all a phone shows.
  4. Featured → Add a link → thebigrefresh.com/book-a-call for now, then upload the tile as its image.
  5. Reply to every “BURNOVER” with the paper and the guide, then the DM below.

Five options

Option 1Your current banner, made stronger: your face, your $25M mission, the real AFR, ABC and The Australian logos, and a clear ask. The one we'd pick.

The one-shot DM

Send it to anyone who likes or comments on your posts, or who's just connected. Swap the highlighted bits for each person.

Hey [FIRST NAME], I'm just about to head out the door to pick my daughter up from school, so I thought I'd send this quickly before I forget.

I saw you [liked / commented on] my post about [TOPIC] (or: thanks for connecting!), so I wanted to properly say hi.

I'm Nick. I run The Big Refresh. We help Aussie NFPs stop losing their best middle leaders to burnout.

I had a look at your profile and your org's website, and you reminded me of [CLIENT NAME], who I was just chatting with.

[What was going on for them], and [RESULT].

It works because the middle leaders build their own leadership system with us over 12 weeks. It's designed around how they actually work, so it's still running long after we're done. It's not a training day that's forgotten by the next fortnight.

It's taken me 14 years as a leader in government and the sector, my own burnout, and 1,500+ coaching hours to get this right.

Right now we've got an offer where [THE OFFER].

As you can imagine, the Friday lunchtime yoga session isn't a big fan of us haha. But we don't mind. The more good people who stay in the sector, the better.

Anyway, I really have to go grab my daughter.

Would it help if I walked you through how it works? I've got [TIME 1] or [TIME 2] free tomorrow.

If not, no biggie at all. Happy to just send you my burnover sector paper and the early warning signs guide instead.

Nice to meet you!

Cheers,
Nick

Invite them to a workshop

A second way in. Invite your best-fit people to a small, private session. The first two messages only ask if they'd like to come. The link only goes out in the last one, or once they say yes. Swap the [highlighted] bits yourself; the {curly} bits fill in automatically.

Why this workshop: It's built on your Uniting Vic Tas work. You coached their leadership and key team members, trained them to coach, and co-designed a Coaching Toolkit with them so the capability stays after you've gone (Jessica Hateley-Browne, Executive Director Mission & Equity, in her LinkedIn recommendation). It's the proof behind "still running long after we're done".

If you've chatted with them before, open with: "Hey {First name}, I remember we were chatting about [X] at [WHERE]." Then carry on with the invite.

The workshop

Keep your best middle leaders

A private 90-minute breakfast for [SEATS, e.g. 12] NFP CEOs, EDs and People & Culture leads, in [PLACE] on {Day + date}. If your people are spread across states, run it on Zoom instead.

  • The early warning signs your best middle leader is burning out (straight from your guide).
  • What one burnout resignation really costs: up to 1.5x salary, so $120k for an $80k role.
  • How Uniting Vic Tas built its own coaching toolkit with you, so the capability stayed in the team after you'd gone.

Make it personal

Add one of these before "I'm hosting"
  • Their org: "I've been following what {Company} is doing with [PROGRAM, e.g. its carer respite work]."
  • Their role: "I know P&C leads are usually the ones catching resignations first."
  • A past chat: "I remember we were chatting about [X, e.g. your team leader pipeline] at [WHERE, e.g. a sector event]."
  • Their recent post: "I saw your post about [TOPIC, e.g. losing two team leaders before the Budget]."
Problems to drop into the follow-up
  • "losing their third team leader this year"
  • "a pulse survey that says all good while people keep resigning"
  • "team leaders still green on Teams at 9pm"
  • "staff on fixed contracts doom-scrolling Ethical Jobs before the Budget".

Hey {First name}, I know this is a bit random.

Hey {First name}, I know this is a bit random.

I'm hosting a small workshop for NFP People & Culture leads in [PLACE] on {Day + date}, walking through the leadership program we built for six of South Port Community Housing's staff, and why it worked where run-of-the-mill leadership training doesn't.

1. The invite: director or manager in government (the Education story)

Hey {First name}, I know this is a bit random.

I'm hosting a small workshop for public sector leaders in [PLACE] on {Day + date}, walking through how we coached managers at the Department of Education who don't naturally open up to outside coaches.

Example (made up, to show a filled-in invite)

Hey Sarah, I know this is a bit random.

I saw your post about losing two team leaders before the Budget, and I'm hosting a small workshop for NFP CEOs in Melbourne on Thursday 22 October, walking through how Uniting Vic Tas built its own coaching toolkit with us, so the capability stayed in the team long after we'd finished.

Would you like to come?

2. Follow-up (2 days later)

Hey {First name}, I was chatting to [A PEER LIKE THEM, e.g. a CEO at a community housing org] who's stuck on [PROBLEM], and it reminded me to reach back out.

Keen to come?

3. Hail Mary (3 days after that)

Hey {First name}, I swear this is my last message haha.

It'll be a room of [SEATS] NFP leaders on {Day + date}, and we'll go deep on the early warning signs before your best middle leader resigns.

If you'd like a seat, you can book here: [LINK]

Once I see you've booked, I'll give you a quick call to hear what you'd most like to get out of it and run you through who else is in the room.

And if you're snowed under, no biggie at all. Just let me know and I'll reach out for the next one.

When they say yes

The yes-reply (DM or email)

Awesome, we'd love to have you there! Here's the link: [LINK]

Who gets which

Send it to
  • The Uniting invite: CEOs and EDs of larger NFPs.
  • The South Port invite: P&C leads and GMs at community orgs and housing providers.
  • The Education invite: directors and managers in state government teams.
  • Pull them from your connections first, then new connections once they accept. The one-shot DM stays for people who like, comment or connect.

Before it goes live

  • Send us the paper: the cover in the kit is a stand-in made from your logo, fonts and colours, because we haven't seen the real one. Send the PDF and its exact title and we'll swap the real cover into every banner and tile.
  • Your Refreshing Leader page: it still shows placeholder text to the public ("Insert [Interactive Burnover Cost Calculator...]"). Fix it, then point the Featured link there instead of the booking page.
  • One number: your headline says 300+ leaders supported, and your Experience says 100+ for-purpose leaders. Pick one so they match.
  • Lock the workshop: pick the date, the place, the number of seats and a booking link, then swap them into the invites. Check you're happy to name Uniting Vic Tas, South Port Community Housing and the Department of Education in the invites, and Uniting, Carers Victoria and Jesuit Social Services on option 3.
  • Option 5 photo: it's your ABC studio selfie, with the host beside you. Only use it if you're comfortable with that.
