15k followers on linkedin calls for 15 lessons…
1- it's vanity but the brain likes it. don't mistake serotonin vs. real solid achievements
2- I'm doubling down on content. getting paid through 15+ affiliates right now, including major channels like YT. pursuing microrev is a scalable thesis
3- I got most of these followers through cold outreach, podcasting and linkedin polls. yes, linkedin polls.
4- Authority brings more sales but its vanity. part of me likes it, part of me dislikes it.
5- I'm not aiming for fame, but getting in front of most of my ICP: wealthy serial entrepreneurs seeking me to test out their ideas at scale. this requires quantity, the .007% of founders are not easy to reach out to.
6- My engagement still sucks because I'm stubborn and imposed my values over marketing dollars. Hired consultants to work on this. Working with me must be a pain.
7- I do content for fun, to express my truths and to grow neurons. to add value and align folks to the scalable path in the age of disinformation. this is why ultimately I'll be making mills with my content. not because money is water.
8- I don't make content to get followers or to hook people up. I do it to add value / spread my entrepreneurial propaganda, for ppl to survive the age of AI. I go contr and am not pushing my services much.
9- My thesis on content is also to pack all these micro posts into high value book, with AI. I am currently running GPThook.com that's doing this. It's one of my most exciting ventures.
10- I repack some of my content on my newsletters situated on https://lnkd.in/eZJ7i4Da and
11- How do I get my content ideas? Talking to 10+ CEOs/day helps. Neurodigesting this content through biohacking and long fitness helps.
12- All my controversial stuff goes on my twitter, it's not pretty but its there for ppl to see that my mind's not 100% clean. I believe in discussions and freedom of speech.
13- Will I create a business of getting a bunch of followers? meh. maybe if I get good at it + come up with a value-based approach vs. all the marketing-oriented programs nowadays.
14- I never thought I'd be a fan of LinkedIn as a rebel, but I like the intellectualism on this platform. It is plagued with corporatism but you can't have everything. I prefer this to the lowIQness/hate on Twitter and YouTube.
15- I plan to reach 100k followers this year while staying true to myself. I'm not a pleaser but I'm definitely all about helping entrepreneurs reaching their peaks + having high performers orbit around me. Let's see how that goes.
