Your favorite entrepreneur is asking me for LinkedIn growth tips
My most incredible discovery has been social currency and how we use it to operate in this “new” economy.
A few months ago, I got into a private members club in London in 4 days when the waitlist is usually 1 year.
The interesting part wasn’t just that but also how my friends started using that as my introduction to their friends instead of my name or any other more relevant achievements.
Within the same week, I also got connected with a few high-level entrepreneurs I read books of and honestly binge-watched videos on.
A year ago I honestly would’ve PAID to get connected with these people.
But LinkedIn made it free for me now.
The reason is simple: leverage.
Growing a following online, going viral and even achieving “influencer” status isn’t the goal… the leverage that comes from it is.
The fastest way to build it? Through growing your personal brand online.
There are 4 key pillars to it
Outstanding content
Undeniable social proof
Insane engagement from your audience
Top creators and authorities by your side
One by one you stack them in and ultimately they lead you to opportunities.
Because by doing each you’re gaining momentum and compounding wins.
So instead of trying to get a seat at the table, start building your own - it’s a lot more fun, trust me.
Want to know how? Well you’re in luck because it’s the last day you can grab Literally Academy at a discounted price.
If you buy before the deadline you’ll get access to 5 bonus masterclasses by entrepreneurs who don’t even sell their time anymore (see, leverage)
