Here Is what i used to say about Linkedin:
‘Whenever I go on Linkedin I feel uncomfortable, like I’m in a room surrounded by men with DELL laptops and moustaches.’
‘The only way to get reach is by telling people something really private that you have overcome, should I pretend I was in a coma?’
‘The only people I see doing well on there post ALL THE TIME, when do they actually do their work?’
‘I find the platform really tricky to navigate and end up giving up.’
‘It’s only for people who work in corporate.’
‘Isn’t it just a glorified CV?’
As you can hear, it really wasn’t working for me.
At the same time, through my network I was hearing very credible accounts of women doing their entire deal-flow on Linkedin.
They were describing organic connections, often incoming in response to their visibility on the platform without ever using ‘cold calling’ type techniques.
I decided to open my mind…
what changed?
This is Jess Barlow, an OG REALWORKer with an impressive track record of delivering results on Linkedin. Jess’s Linkedin credentials:
Had multiple posts go viral (her posts are reaching 160k, 45k, 30k+, 10k+)
Doubled her followers in less than 4 months
Has DMs full of leads
Taught 150+ brands how to DIY their PR, without a penny spent on paid Ads
Had £50k inbound revenue from Linkedin for her Care business
All this from just being herself on Linkedin, with some algorithm know-how!
When I worked with Jess, this is what happened:
I found a way to show up as myself on Linkedin and stopped hating it.
I increased the average reach of my posts from under 100 to over 1000.
I made friends with the algorithm so that it stopped filling my feed with men with DELL laptops and 1970s facial hair.
I do have requests incoming but want more which is why I have collaborated with Jess to create the first ever REALWORK Linkedin Sprint…
