How Nahed BUILT A PODCAST FOLLOWING with Blaze
Most creators think you need to quit your job to build a successful content business. Nahed Khairallah proved you just need the right systems and tools and a great idea.
The Creator's Dilemma
When Nahed, an HR expert with a decade of experience, wanted to launch "Organized Chaos" - a podcast helping founders scale to 9-figure revenue -
he faced the classic creator's challenge: not enough time in the day.
The time suck needed to build his brand was real:
- 2 hours per newsletter
- 4 hours for two weeks of social content
- Full-time job consuming prime hours
- Daily need for consistent multi-channel presence
"I spent a year planning but never starting," Nahed admitted. "The time investment seemed impossible while working full-time."
Building his Podcast Brand with Blaze
Instead of sacrificing sleep or savings, Nahed built a scalable content machine with Blaze:
- Content Creation Framework
- Personal recording of podcast episodes (expertise)
- AI repurposing into newsletters (efficiency)
- Automated social media scheduling (consistency)
- Bulk content creation (time leverage)
- Time Optimization Process with Blaze:
- Newsletter writing: 2 hours → 20 minutes
- Social content: 4 hours → 1 hour every two weeks
- Content scheduled 2 months ahead
- Zero compromise on quality
The Results: Numbers That Matter
Within 60 days, Nahed saw his marketing machine start to deliver results:
- Newsletter production: 83% time savings
- LinkedIn engagement: +31%
- Comments: +235%
- Profile views: +24%
- Website traffic: +446%
- Posts consistently reaching 10,000+ impressions
The Real ROI: Freedom and Sustainability
The most powerful outcome wasn't metrics - it was building a sustainable business alongside a full-time career:
"I took a three-week vacation with my family and didn't touch anything," Nahed explains. "Everything was scheduled. That kind of freedom is priceless."
Key Lessons for Creators
Nahed's experience highlights three critical insights:
- Start with systems: Build processes that work with your schedule, not against it
- Leverage technology: Use AI to multiply your expertise, not replace it
- Think long-term: Focus on sustainable growth over quick wins
“The ROI isn't even debatable. You get the time and space to build something meaningful.”
The Financial Reality
The numbers make the business case clear:
- Annual Blaze subscription: "a rounding error"
- Equivalent freelance writer cost: 12x more expensive
- Time saved: 100+ hours annually
- Additional revenue streams: Now possible
What's Next
With his content system running smoothly, Nahed is developing new revenue streams he "never thought possible" without quitting his job.
"The ROI isn't even debatable," he notes. "At worst, you get inspiration. At best, you get the time and space to build something meaningful while keeping your day job. It's the difference between drowning in tactics and actually building a business."
