The 4 Post Types to Cycle Through on LinkedIn
If you never know what to post, stop guessing and start cycling.
There are 4 types of posts. Hit all 4 in a week and you have a content strategy. That is the whole thing.
1. Educational.
How you did something. How to do something. A strong opinion about the way your industry gets something wrong....

What to Post on LinkedIn When You Have No Ideas
You do not have an ideas problem. You have a capture problem.
Ideas come to you in the shower. In the pickup line. At 11pm when you are half asleep. Then you sit down Tuesday morning with a blank screen and nothing.
The idea was never the issue. You just had nowhere to put it.
Here are the 3 syst...

How to Find the Stories That Should Anchor Your Brand
My best posts are almost always stories.
That does not mean every post should be a story. It means you should know your stories cold, because the stories you repeat become your brand.
I call mine cornerstone stories.
Here are my 3:
1. I was a broke single mom when I came to LinkedIn.
2. I watched...

Why Nobody Is Reading Your LinkedIn Posts
You wrote a good post.
You know the topic. You have lived the story. You hit publish, and it got 4 likes, 3 of them from people who like everything.
Before you blame the algorithm, look at the shape of the post on the screen.
Formatting matters as much as content on LinkedIn. A wall of paragraphs...

How often should you share social proof?
How often should you share social proof?
I get this question constantly, usually whispered, like there's a shameful answer. Like there's a limit and you don't want to cross it.
Here's my real answer: if you share it well, do it again and again. I suggest every single week.
The fear is always the ...

Sell. Create. Dream. (In that order.)
Here's how we like to think our businesses run:
1. Dream
2. Create
3. Sell
First you develop the work. Then you build it. Then, finally, when it's polished and ready and you've earned the right, you tell people about it.
It's a lovely story. It's also backwards.
Here's how it actually goes for th...

Every excuse I ever made
Here's the list. Every excuse I made for two years while I stopped and started my way through LinkedIn.
"I don't have time." "I'm not a content person." "I don't want to be cringe." "I don't know what to say." "I don't want to sound like everyone else." "My work speaks for itself." "I don't want ...

You don't have to start at the beginning
Here's a permission slip most people never get on LinkedIn:
You don't have to tell a chronological story.
You don't have to start at the start. You don't have to give the setup, the background, the "so a little context first." You can drop your reader straight into the moment that matters and tru...

Do you know your brand relatives?
Do you know your brand relatives?
Not your competitors. Your relatives. This might be the single most underrated concept in personal branding, and once you see it, you can't unsee it.
Here's the family tree.
Brand Fraternal Twins Same industry. Same audience. Different delivery. Think Brené Brown...

LinkedIn is a long game. The algorithm isn't.
LinkedIn is a long game.
But the algorithm isn't. And confusing those two things will quietly wreck your momentum.
Here's the mechanic almost nobody talks about. LinkedIn's feed system actively retrieves content from roughly the past 30 days. That's the window it's working with when it decides wh...

The strongest strategy I've got
After five years on LinkedIn, one strategy has stayed stronger than everything else.
Commenting.
Not posting. Commenting. And not the lazy kind, the strategic kind. Here are the three pieces of how I do it.
1. Comment Lists
If you're frustrated on LinkedIn, I can almost guarantee the reason: you'...

How I moved 52 people into my pipeline
I moved 52 people into my pipeline in one week. Here's exactly how.
But first, two confessions because I got this wrong twice before I got it right.
For my first two years on LinkedIn, I sent zero connection requests. Not one. I told myself I'd let the work speak for itself. Translation: I left t...
