Angela Pounder’s Post

The social media (un-)revolution we are living through right now is so laughably and wonderfully predictable and boring 😀 The headline from the flurry of charts, surveys personal hot takes: "It's LinkedIn folks." From the EU affairs world fleeing from X to Gen Zers looking to build personal brands (see comment), a hearty welcome all to LinkedIn: to the only platform we’ve all been using the whole time when our goal is to extract real, actual, objective, tangible VALUE. The biggest shock to some systems I'm seeing is the realisation that LinkedIn is an individual thing. And that just like in any other real world pursuit - to get results, you've got to put in the work. Hiding behind batched content prepped and approved months in advance, overlong animated explainers, shallow copy and pasted written "thoughts" - they leave one many steps removed from actual influence. There is simply no influence to be gained on this channel without some level of individual commitment. If a prospective client would ask us for a LinkedIn strategy/plan/campaign that doesn't have their people at the centre of it in some way - we would have to hard pass. It would be at best malpractice, at worst pure snake oil:)

Don't "REPOST" Your own "CONTENT" Please don't do this, Here are 3 Downfalls you'll face in your account: 1. Your content will be the same as to the same people 2. Nobody gives a damn as they had seen it 3. LinkedIn pushes it less than before So, How to Recreate it? Just DO one thing COPY-PASTE your content and then Publish it, as simple as it can! Make sure Your Audience has forgotten it and it is 2 weeks older! After Posting this: Wait, Mom, I'm coming to wash dishes 😅😭 P.S. Why do we have no Value at Home?? Can anyone answer this?? #60daysoflinkedinchallenge ------------ Did you like it? Then, Do Hit Follow Shivangi and ♻️Repost Tap🔔 to get updates from my New Posts!

If you google "how many people post on LinkedIn regularly as of today, 2023" It is still only 1% of their 930 million subscribers that post regularly. 1% percent! 😧 So if you're not in the top 1% of the wealthiest people in the world making several hundred thousand dollars per year... 🤑 All you have to do is post regularly here and you can be in the top 1% of content creators on LinkedIn. You're #1 in my book xoxo 😎 Let's do a little more math to put it into perspective. You have 30k first-level connections. Did you know that you are only connected to approximately 0.003% of the total LinkedIn members? Crazy right?! Even if you're one of the bigger creators with 100k followers... You are only connected to 0.010753% of the total LinkedIn members. Ok, last little bit of math. You have 30k connections. That means only 300 of your connections post regularly. You are only in competition with 300 individuals who are vying for attention in your connections' feed. The average person's newsfeed is pretty boring. Not all newsfeeds are created equal. If yours is filled with top-quality creators, it's because you programmed it that way. And if everyone in your newsfeed looks the same (same style and content) think "high school." You're all shopping at the same stores, living in the same place, influenced by the same trends... How do you reprogram your newsfeed to make it fancy fresh again? Search different hashtags and keyword words and phrases then choose the post option. Scroll those posts, and follow interesting contributors. Mute creators that you don't want to see for a while, you can always unmute them. Mix it up. It's like trying out a new restaurant, in a new City, with people you've never seen before! I'm going to add a video in the comments that shows you how to connect with new people, prospects, or active users to spice up your LinkedIn community. 🌶 🔥 #contentcreation #brandbuilding #linkedin #relationshipbuilding #personalgrowth #businessdevelopment

superb evaluation and nice strategies to learn.

🎉I broke through 5,000 followers!🍾 5,000 followers was my goal when I came back on social media in October 2021. I started with 426 LinkedIn followers. I’ve learned a few things… 1️⃣ Consistency is key. It doesn’t have to be every day (although that helps) 2️⃣ Something that you find basic or trivial might be the missing piece for someone else. NOTHING is too small or invaluable. 3️⃣ Everyone is a voyeur. Very few are creators. Become a creator and you get new opportunities. 4️⃣ Understand your goal for posting. My first 12 months I just posted…it wasn’t very coherent. My content became better once I got dialed in. 5️⃣ You are allowed to change your goal. I have changed mine several times. 6️⃣ Be yourself. Nobody wants to see the PR written piece that sounds like a press release. On to 10,000! 🚀🚀🚀

Posting in a digital ghost town on LinkedIn? Here's how to revive it! 👇 Does your LinkedIn feel like a deserted city? You're not alone. "My posts feel like they're in a digital ghost town," is a frequent gripe. This stems from a lack of understanding of LinkedIn's algorithm. It's what I refer to as 'posting in the void'. Firstly, be certain your posts resonate with your audience. This involves testing --> failing --> learning --> winning. However, without knowledge on pleasing the LinkedIn lords, it feels like an endless struggle. Here's a tip: LinkedIn now craves engagement and value over viral content. As LinkedIn's Editor-in-Chief, Dan Roth, recently explained, "When content goes viral on LinkedIn, it's usually a signal for us to investigate, because that's not celebrated internally". So, what does this mean for you? ✔️ Share your expertise and provide TRUE value to your community. ✔️ Express your thoughts and provide expert advice. ✔️ Engage in MEANINGFUL discussions on your posts. ✔️ Avoid viral content. Remember, LinkedIn wants your content to be seen by the RIGHT people, not everyone. 🚀 Let me know in the comments: 👉 Are you more or less frustrated as a content creator here on LinkedIn? Keep exploring, keep sharing, keep engaging – the revival of your LinkedIn ghost town is in your hands! ♻ Repost and share this with your community!

Posting one time daily on LinkedIn is not enough. Just as Jasmin Alić one topLinkedIn creator I follow postulates, LinkedIn is more like a community. Posting once on this platform cannot be enough. It's akin to letting your community members see you for just one time or day. Here's the best and most proven way to make them see you often even without posting frequently. COMMENTING. Imagine I wake up every day with the drive that I'm going to be seen on LinkedIn by 50 people each day, I don't have to make 50 posts that day, but how about 50 strategic and insightful comments on the post of other creators? That automatically leaves me in the web of more creators, takes my profile views up a notch and culminates more community of active followers here on LinkedIn. Remember, set a commenting goal 10-15 minimum. As time goes on you can increase them. In this month of February, the goal is double of influence more than we did in January and this is just one of the tips to stick your minds to. Care to know about the next tip, stay tuned to my next post and while you wait, let this post be one of your first post of the day with your comment on it. Just to register that you've commented on a post today, leave your favorite emoji(💐) in the comments section of this post indicating your commitment to making yourself seen more than once daily on this space. #BestContentWriter #letsconnectnow

So like always, James was scrolling through his Instagram watching funny cat videos, and friend’s vacation pictures *ding dong* He saw a message pop up on his phone from Sara asking ‘Why don’t you try Linkedin?’ “Linkedin? What? Is it not for professionals?” - He replied “Were you living under a rock all these days Jam? It is for everybody who wants to build something of their own” - She replied with a light speed. Alright, alright, I'll give it a try. But no promises I'll understand how to use it properly," he typed back with a smirk. And as he said, he signed up and started poking around. At first, he was like, "Yep, this looks just like another job site." But then, as he dug deeper, he found a whole new world. He found people talking about their passions, sharing their stories, and giving advice on all sorts of stuff. It was like a big, friendly gathering of professionals from every corner of the world. James didn’t know LinkedIn was this cool. Before he even knew it, he was hooked. He started creating content, engaging with fellow creators, and finding his tribe. LinkedIn is not just other social media now, it is where he can grow, learn, and meet awesome people. (Like you and me, yes) So if you are lurking on Linkedin, and not considering posting anytime soon. It’s your sign to start doing it now! JUST DO IT PS: I wanted to add more narrative elements but, It got too lengthy and I hate boring you all with long posts! PPS: Should I write more stories here? Idk. I'll go with your answers here!

Last posted 2 weeks ago! That's scary. People are posting everyday and here I am not active on LinkedIn for more than 2 weeks. I need to do something ? Of course but don't be hard yourself. It's okay to take breaks once in a while. If you are also looking to get back on LinkedIn or get starting your journey, let's do it together. This is the action plan : ✅Post 3-4 times a week ✅Comment Sounds Simple but it is effective. - Posting 3-4 times a week is good enough. You need to create amazing content that's what matters. Create valuable posts for your audience. - Comment genuinely every day. If you can write lots of comments it's best. If not focus on the quality of comments. - Make your comments personalised and genuine. - Be kind, helpful, and make them feel valued. That's it :) P.S : How's your New Year's resolution going guys?
