I deleted 800+ LinkedIn connections. Here's why you should too In 12 months, I transformed my LinkedIn presence. It all started with a 7-step strategy. Here’s how → 1. Digital Detox Clean up your LinkedIn network. Seriously. Remove irrelevant connections or start fresh. Create a "Dream 100 List" – people with your ideal audience. ↳ This keeps your feed relevant and focused. 2. Optimize Your Profile Focus on speed, not perfection. Perfection is the enemy of progress. Essentials: high-quality headshot, simple headline, solid color banner. ↳ A strong profile builds trust instantly. 3. Invest Time in First Impressions No money? Invest time. Reach 500+ connections (trust signal). Show up consistently and engage authentically. ↳ Consistency compounds over time. 4. Comment Consistently Find 20–30 active accounts in your niche. Engage where your audience already is. Leave thoughtful comments early on their posts. Builds visibility and attracts your ideal audience. ↳ Thoughtful comments spark conversations. 5. Master the "Rule of One" Focus on one problem, one solution. Niche down to blow up. Position yourself as the go-to person in your niche. ↳ Specialization leads to recognition. 6. Create High-Performance Content Content should educate, inspire, or entertain. Provide value first. First 90 days: 80% educational / 20% inspirational. ↳ Valuable content attracts your ideal audience. 7. Build Real Connections Go beyond followers – build relationships. Networking is not dead. Book coffee chats and Zoom calls with industry peers. Engage like a human, not a growth hacker. ↳ Relationships are the foundation of growth. Want to grow your LinkedIn audience? Start with Step 1 today! What's the first step you're going to take?

The first step I’m excited to take is the Digital Detox. Cleaning up my connections will help me focus on building a meaningful network that aligns with my goals. It’s amazing how much clearer your feed can become when you connect with the right people.

Is there a fast way to remove connections?
Stop writing boring hooks. Do this instead. (5 formulas to make your hooks irresistible) 90% of your post’s success is decided here. Hooks aren’t luck; they’re science. What if your hooks could stop the scroll every time? After studying top viral posts, Here’s the truth. I’ve tested every hook style: → Long hooks. → Short hooks. → Stats, stories, quotes. These 5 formulas always win: → How I… (“How I 10X’d my salary in 6 months.”) → How To… (“How to fix boring hooks in 30 seconds.”) → Start a Story (“I almost quit LinkedIn. Then THIS happened…”) → Quote (“Gary Vee said . Here’s why he’s right.”) → Statistic (“92% of posts fail here. Don’t be them.”) 20 Power Words to Borrow: → Fear/Urgency: “Warning,” “Do Not,” “Last Chance.” → Authority: “Proven,” “10X,” “Secrets.” → Curiosity: “Rare,” “Nobody Tells You,” “Behind the Scenes.” Formatting Hacks to Avoid the “See More” Cutoff: → Spacing: [Line-Gap-Line] > [Line-Line-Line]. → Length: Line 1 & 2: ≤62 characters (fits mobile!) → Line 3: ≤50 characters (no spillover!) → Keep It Simple: No emojis. No bold. Just curiosity. BONUS: → 10 Done-For-You Templates (e.g., “The #1 mistake [your industry] makes…”) → 7 Creators Who Nail Hooks (steal from Justin Welsh, Lara Acosta, etc.) 🚨 PS: Organic growth is still possible, but only if you stand out. Use these hooks now or get buried later. 👇 Comment “HOOKS” and I’ll send you the PDF version! (Or follow Yaser for more cheat sheets.) PPS: Hate writing hooks?

Want more engagement on LinkedIn? (Most people overcomplicate LinkedIn.) After analyzing 400+ viral posts, I found the winning formulas. Here they are - with examples: 1. The Awareness Post Goal: Stop scrollers with a thought-provoking hook ↳ Formula: "If you can work 8 hours for someone else's dream... you can spend 60 minutes on yours." ↳ Uses contrast + calls out a universal truth 2. The Personal Story Post Goal: Build connection through vulnerability My exact structure: ↳ Hook: "I almost quit my business last year..." ↳ Struggle: "80-hour weeks, zero freedom" ↳ Turning Point: "Then I tried..." ↳ Results: "Doubled revenue in 3 months" ↳ Lesson: "Burnout isn't required for success" 3. The Education Post ↳ Goal: Position yourself as an expert ↳ Pro Tip: Teach ONE actionable concept per post ↳ Example: "3 Hiring Mistakes That Cost Me $50K" 4. The Conversion Post ↳ Goal: Turn followers into clients ↳ Magic Ingredients: ↳ Customer success story ↳ Specific results ("Increased conversions by 200%") "This could be you" implication 5. The "How We Do It" Post ↳ Goal: Showcase your unique methodology ↳ Example Framework: ↳ Problem most miss ↳ Our unusual approach ↳ Why it works (data/story) Want the full breakdown? 🔗Swipe the carousel for templates, visuals, and my free Business Strategy Checklist 💬 Which format will you try first?
