The Morgan Snyder Show

A year ago, I dreamed of a Dalmation. His name was Inkwell. Whenever you called his name, he would be ready to fetch a frisbee, a football, or a piece of content. :) You would just tell him what’s been going on during your week, maybe something you read in the New York Times, or even a funny tale of a pitch gone wrong. After a few minutes, Inkwell would take your content to its fellow writing comp...

What I want to talk about today takes the operating discipline you already use in other areas of your business and points it at yourself. I want you to imagine what it would be like to treat your personal brand like you would your company brand. What the best agencies in the world would do with your brand I don’t know if you’ve ever thought about something like this but: What would it look like if...

Five months ago, I wrote about my run-in with David (name changed) , a CEO I thought would be the perfect fit for my work. He didn’t have much going on when it came to his social media presence. I did a small amount of research into his business. It seemed like his ideal clients were on LinkedIn, and would react positively to David becoming more active online. And, based on the stage of his compan...

When I started my business, I told people I could help them with, “websites, social media, and copywriting.” The most vague positioning in the world. And the result was predictable: I attracted a little bit of everyone, which means I attracted no one in a steady fashion. So I got more specific. I pivoted to: “I help busy CEOs who don’t have time to post.” One of my favorite LinkedIn headlines was,...

I look at some of my favorite nonfiction writers and think, “What’s the whole point of all this writing stuff? I write 24/7 for other people, but I don’t even have a book to prove I’M A REAL WRITER . The irony…” Because as we know, every great nonfiction writer has a breakout book: Daniel Pink wrote Drive , Seth Godin had Purple Cow , Heath Brothers blew people’s minds with Made to Stick . Enough...

“This doesn’t read as cheeky or kind. There’s still time to pull it down.” That was a comment from a recent post. It racked up twenty-seven reactions. A thread of replies debating whether I’d crossed a line. I kept asking the person questions, they kept coming back and bopping me over the head with their moral compass. More people jumped into the fray. The post stayed up and performed beautifully....

Tyler Denk noticed it first. The beehiiv founder, scrolling job boards with the pattern recognition of someone who spots market shifts before they announce themselves, saw something emerging. He called it “storymaxxing”, corporate America’s sudden scramble for narrative control. What can you do in this gold rush for storytelling supremacy? The answer might surprise you... - Come and say hi at www....

I talked with Anya Cheng, CEO of Taelor.ai: an AI-powered styling service that’s revolutionizing how busy professionals look good without thinking about fashion. Before Taelor, Anya spent 15 years at companies like Meta, eBay, and McDonald’s launching new products and entire departments. And her career almost didn’t happen at all. She graduated from Northwestern in 2008, right in the middle of the...

My client had sent over his LinkedIn analytics from the past 30 days, and I couldn’t stop looking at it. * Five hundred new followers * 181,000 impressions * Eight posts * One month I leaned back in my chair, let out a satisfied sigh and thought: “Another day playing the game…” You're going to want to read this case study.

Today we're tackling cringe on LinkedIn. Let's jump into it! 👇 You have the War Room stories. You have the access. But you might not know how to package them. You might be sitting there thinking: “Morgan, I know what happened in the board meeting, but I don’t know how to turn that into a 300-word post that stops the scroll.” You have the gold buried in your head. You just need a miner to get it o...

Many people think it's not important to be well-known on LinkedIn. You know what I think? That's a bunch of phooey. This episode will hopefully bring you over to my side. ..

Let’s start with a confession—a safe space, just between us. You probably hate LinkedIn. Honestly? I don’t blame you. If you are a serious executive—someone running a Series B startup, a Private Equity firm, or a Fortune 500 division—opening the app probably feels like walking into a cafeteria where everyone is screaming for attention. So, let's not be cringe. I've outlined 3 things in this episod...

Today, I'm talking about playing the game of social media in 2026. The basic philosophy:Goals make us play 'not to lose.' We become risk-averse. Games make us play to win. We take big swings because the cost of missing is low. Which is what I want you to do with your social content. .. Come say hi at https://www.thoughtleadertoday.com/ 👋 This is a public episode.
