Most people quit LinkedIn too soon. (Why? Because they expect instant results.) ↳ Post consistently ↳ Go viral But that's not how it works. It's messy, confusing, and full of loops. ↳ Start posting ↳ Comment daily ↳ Follow advice ↳ Start again ↳ Feel stuck ↳ 90% quit here Push past that dip. → You figure out what works → You grow rapidly → You become a go-to voice. Most give up before momentum kicks in. LinkedIn isn’t about going viral. It’s about staying in the game to win. Have you hit this phase? Or are you just getting started? Let me know where you are. 👇 I'm all ears. Save this if you're building your brand in 2025. ♻️ Share it with someone who’s thinking of quitting.

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.

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.

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?

Why I Started Talking to Myself on LinkedIn "Your voice matters, even if it shakes." What would your 15-year-old self need to hear today? The Backstory For 2 years, I drafted posts that never went live. Imposter syndrome hissed: - "Who cares what you think?" - "Wait until you're more qualified." - "Someone will figure out you're faking it." The Breaking Point That time I: → Ugly-cried in a bathroom stall after a presentation → Blanked on my own name during a client pitch → Nearly declined a promotion because "someone better deserved it" The Shift I started writing to my 32-year-old self instead of "LinkedIn." Posts became letters. Ideas became heartbeats on a screen. What Happened Next ✓ DMs increased 10x ("This felt like you were in my head") ✓ Comments became real conversations ✓ Connections started sharing THEIR hidden stories The Reframe That Changed Everything When self-doubt strikes, ask: → "Is this helpful or just impressive?" → "What would my teenage self need to hear?" → "Can this become someone else's flashlight?" Your Turn What's ONE TRUTH your younger self needed? (I'll start: "You don't need permission to take up space.") PS - That shaky voice? It's not a liability. It's how we find our people.

LinkedIn reach is dying. Organic impressions are down 65%. Video performance has collapsed by 200%. Yet, some creators are thriving. Engagement is up 12% for those playing a different game. Struggling to keep up? I reverse-engineered LinkedIn’s 2025 algorithm. Built a FREE carousel to rescue your reach. So, what’s killing your content? Why are your posts invisible? Why is your cousin’s “🔥🔥🔥” comment hurting your growth? Let’s break it down: 💀 2025’s Brutal Realities: → 65% fewer impressions than last year → 16% more ads eating your organic space → 1.9x more reach if you post in a very specific format Quick wins you can steal today: ✅ Post once daily + like your own post = 5% reach bump 🎣 Start videos with a 3-second hook 🚫 Ditch text-only posts — the algo hates them Underground Tip: Dwell time is everything. Yes, neon carousels actually help. The algorithm punishes silence. Start today or risk losing another 65% next year. Want the full viral post formula? Comment “ALGO” I’ll DM it to you. ⏳ 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐓𝐇: LinkedIn’s new game = consistency × format × subtle strategy. 💡 Follow for more algorithm hacks. 📌 Save this for your next content brainstorm. ♻️ Share it your network needs this too. Let’s outsmart the algo together.
