Your 5% Makes 100% of the Difference

Hey!

The key to standing out isn’t blending in—it’s owning your quirks. (I call these your 5% differentiators.) These are key for several reasons:

1. They attract your ideal audience 

2. They define and strengthen your personal brand

2. They help you stand apart from others in your niche

3. They’re how you make all your content authentically you 

 My LinkedIn™ success took off when I shared personal stories:

  • My experience with divorce.

  • Growing up in a family business.

  • My "cat lady" tendencies.

Now, I don’t write posts solely based on these topics. But these details are trickled into my profile page, my posts, my comments, and my DMs. 

Your "5%"—the unique parts of you—holds 100% of your value. Own it, and watch your connections deepen.

What’s your "5%"? Let me know—I’d love to celebrate it with you.

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.

None require you to add anything to your tech stack. 1. One note in your...
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 my dad go from poverty to millionaire. 3.
