1. Define Your Business Intent Before Posting
Before you hit publish, ask yourself: What do I want to achieve? Do you want inbound leads? Speaking engagements? A stronger brand presence? Your content should align with these goals.
Actionable Tip:
Map out content categories—educational, credibility-building, lead-generating, and networking posts—to maintain balance.
2. Create Problem-Solving Content
Decision-makers don’t care about your accomplishments unless they see how you can solve their problems.
Actionable Tip:
Use the “Pain-Agitate-Solve” formula in your posts:
Identify a common industry problem.
Agitate the issue by explaining its impact.
Provide a solution or insight.
3. Engage Before and After Posting
Posting alone isn’t enough. Your network needs to see you actively engaging with their content as well.
Actionable Tip:
Spend 15 minutes before posting engaging with other posts and 15 minutes after responding to comments. This boosts visibility and builds connections.
4. Repurpose High-Performing Content for Lead Generation
If a post performs well, don’t let it fade away.
Actionable Tip:
Convert it into a LinkedIn article.
Create a LinkedIn poll to gather more insights.
Turn it into a downloadable resource (e.g., checklist, guide).
