3 Issues from Sam’s Playbook for LinkedIn Progress

Sam McKenna, Founder at #samsales shares 3 points of her playbook👇

1. Craft a compelling hook

Whereas this will sound ‘apparent,’ it can’t be extra extremely emphasised. A giant a part of LinkedIn’s algorithm is dwell time, and you’ve got a restricted variety of traces to seize consideration (3 traces and not using a image, 5 traces with an image). The purpose is to compel customers to click on “see extra” to extend dwell time and in flip, attain.

A technique that I (Scott) personally do that is by writing out my submit, then really rewriting it with the hook in thoughts. Usually, one of the best hook is the final a part of the what I write out – don’t underestimate beginning with the conclusion.

2. Write content material to your audience, but in addition past that

Whereas development exterior of your ICP alignment isn’t the purpose, together with some content material for adjoining audiences could be useful for development. For instance, in case your ICP is govt degree, think about writing for various ranges.

The expanded publicity not solely fosters general development however inadvertently exposes your ICP after they function throughout the adjoining area.

3. Systemize development

Rising your viewers systematically can improve engagement and visibility. Methods for reaching this embrace:

• Join with individuals who have interaction along with your content material, significantly these in your ICP – use a pleasant and non-salesy method in your connection requests, thanking them for participating along with your posts.

• Proactively add individuals inside your ICP. When you’ve got SalesNavigator, filtering via a listing each day is an environment friendly approach of doing so and could be finished in as little as 10 minutes.

That is really Sam’s final week earlier than maternity go away, so we want her nicely!
