You open LinkedIn in the morning, and there they are, a fresh stack of cold pitches just waiting to be ignored. 😬

Generic.

Bland.

Sometimes so desperate, you'd think they were trying to sell life jackets to fish. 🐟

The "Context Switch" is killing your productivity. If you’re a founder or solopreneur, you know the drill: jumping between a CRM, a marketing tool, and LinkedIn just to find one solid lead. 💻

LinkedIn just dropped a massive update that puts an end to tab-hopping

The "Pitch Slap"

If you DM me a sales pitch the second I accept your request, I will block you.

It is like shoving a brochure in someone's face before you've even shaken their hand.

Treat DMs like a cocktail party.
Build rapport.
Ask questions.
Look for common ground.

Earn the right to pitch.

The "Open to Work" Myth in LinkedIn 🧐

Unpopular opinion:

If you own a business, a freelancer, or similar, never use the "Open to Work" green banner.

It signals desperation, not authority.

Instead, use the "Service Page" feature to showcase what you offer.

Attract clients, not recruiters.

LinkedIn Profile Picture Psychology 🤔

Quick LinkedIn win:

If your profile photo is from 2015, or it’s a selfie in a car... update it.

Smiles build trust. Eye contact builds connection.

Small business owners: You are the face of your brand. Show up clearly.

Thought of the Day: Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world.

Set a goal and don't quit until you attain it.

When you do attain it,

set another goal,

and don't quit until you reach it.

Never quit.
- Bear Bryant

There is no greater endorsement than the endorsement from the source (in this case, LinkedIn) + a client who found your service/product extremely useful to them.
PLEASE STOP the self-endorsing and let others do it for you.
All the self-endorsing screams a desperate need for attention and approval.

I get see this a lot 👉🏾 Where should I post? 🤔

Evaluate platforms based on key criteria:

Are customers present and buying here?

Can you consistently create good content for it?

Does it connect to your sales process?

How crowded is it?

Score them and pick your top three.

The "About" Section Mistake

🛑 Stop writing your "About" section in the third person.

"John is a visionary leader..." 👈🏾 Seriously? 👀🤔💭

No. John sounds like he hired a PR bot.

Write like you speak. 📝✍🏾🗣️

People buy from people, not bios.

Make it feel like you are speaking to them directly. 🗣️👀😃

“Why isn't my LinkedIn profile converting?"
Treat your LinkedIn profile like a landing page.
If your headline says "CEO at [Company Name]," you’re losing leads.
Change it to: "Helping [Target Audience] achieve [Result] by [Method]."
Treat your profile like a sales page!

Sales Objection “I have to think about it."

Don't just say "Okay”

1️⃣ Isolate it: "What questions do you have?

2️⃣ Rate it: "On a scale of 1-10 on buying, where are you?

3️⃣ Challenge it: "While you're thinking about it, how will you fix [pain] in the meantime?"

Find the issue.

One of the greatest lessons I was taught by my sales coach.....

You'll work just as hard to land a deal with a small account as you will with a large account. Use your time wisely and aim for the big ones.

Sales objection alert! 🚨 You hear those dreaded words: "I can't afford it." Don't panic! Instead of seeing it as a dead end, see it as an opportunity to dig deeper.
