5 SMART things you can do on LinkedIn with AI assistance

AI is not here to REPLACE you or to replace your ROLE in relationship building.?

It's here to make life easier.?

Technology like smartphones has PROs and CONs.?

For example: A smartphone can help you do a video chat with your aunt across the globe even if you are on a boat in Alaska. But it can also distract you from doing your day-to-day tasks and even stop you from getting a healthy amount of sleep.

AI is no different, you can use it in a SMART way and it will help you and support you or you can use it in a dumb way and you can make a ton of useless noise.?

I'm here to give you 5 smart things to do with AI today using AI with LinkedIn so you can get more done in less time.?

First of all, I want to say that if you are using AI tools on Linkedin you need to make sure they comply with Linkedin TERMS which means they do not automatically do things for you without your involvement.?

Our AI called evyAI, never just goes onto Linkedin and just sends out connection requests like some other tools, instead, it makes helpful suggestions for you in your day-to-day activities.?

Now that we got that out of the way, let's break down each of the 5 SMART things you can do with AI on LinkedIn.?

• Leave Smart Relevant Comments on LinkedIn with AI.?
• Create Well Written LinkedIn Posts with AI Using Your Voice
• Craft Personalized LinkedIn Connection Notes with AI
• Leave Well Written Recommendations For LinkedIn Connections
• Optimize your LinkedIn Profile with AI

I am beyond excited to share this article with you because for the past decade, I have been teaching people to GO USE LINKEDIN to get new clients and in the past 3 years alone, over 1000 people have taken our courses on how to use Linkedin but there is one major roadblock that people have.?

There is NOT ENOUGH TIME IN THE DAY to do it all!?

AI can solve this problem if you use AI tools it in a SMART WAY.?

Let's spend the next 10 minutes breaking down each one of these 5 items so you can know why they are important and how to leverage LinkedIn with the help of AI.?

Leave Smart Relevant Comments on LinkedIn with AI

The reason why leaving comments on LinkedIn is so important is because LinkedIn is the world's largest professional social media platform with over 930 million members right now and leaving comments helps you stay top of mind with three types of LinkedIn users.?

1. LinkedIn users who leave comments get notified that they left a comment
2. The Author of the LinkedIn Post gets notified that you commented
3. Your LinkedIn connections see your comments in the feed too.

So by leaving comments on posts, you are literally staying top of mind with business owners, CEOs, and professionals and if you do it strategically you can generate business from this activity.?

It's not hard to leave a comment with an AI like evyAI.?

All you need to do is click a button, choose the tone you want to use, and click generate comment. The AI will read the post and generate a comment in a few seconds.?

You can even customize the comment by adding your own prompt, a feature that no other AI has right now that integrates with LinkedIn.?

You can pick from a variety of personas so the AI knows exactly WHO is leaving the comment and can reference your background and business in the comments.?

This is a powerful way to stay top of mind and drop comments quickly.?

A new feature that was just released is that you can SAVE LinkedIn profiles into evyAI directly from Linkedin so that you can quickly comment on those connections' posts without waiting for their posts to show up on the feed.?

How many comments do we recommend leaving a day? At least 10 comments a day is enough to see exposure gains and stay top of mind with your network. If you have more than 2 to 3 minutes then you can leave 20 or even 30 comments a day.?

I personally leave comments on the posts of Gary Vaynerchuck, Tony Robbins and other significant influencers because their followers are often my EXACT target market.?

People reach out to me and follow me because of the valuable comments that AI helps me create on those profiles, it's a nice way of getting exposure on Linkedin.?

Try it out yourself and see how it goes. There is no charge to use our AI and you can test it out without a credit card at www.evyai.com if you Love it, sign up for premium and you will get unlimited access to all our features. We have over 1,000 people loving our AI right now and it's growing every day.?

Now that you got the comments out of the way, let's talk about posts!?

Create Well-written LinkedIn Posts with AI Using Your Voice

Out of the 930 million people on Linkedin right now very few are posting. Some people say that 1 million posts go up a day, others say that it's really 3 million posts.. It's still VERY FEW POSTS.?

That means that millions of people are ACTIVE logging in and a TINY percentage of those people are actually posting.?

This creates a huge opportunity for those that want to post on LinkedIn.?

You can post TIPS, Quotes, Thoughts, Ideas, and Industry Insights, it matters more that you post on a regular basis than what you post about.?

Yes, you should be adding value to your target market but POST ALREADY.?

Ask a question, give a stat, and have a conversation with your network.?

If you have writer's block, use evyAI to help you draft a post. The post will never be perfect on the first draft if you use a human copywriter or you use an AI copywriter like evyAI but guess what, it's much easier to EDIT copy than it is to write copy.?

So leverage AI to write a post for you and follow the best practices for the LinkedIn algorithm.

The great thing about evyAI is that we understand the algorithm so we format the posts in a way that the post is more likely to be sent around by Linkedin in the feed.?

You need to create a post that is INTERESTING to your connections but it will have the elements that are best practices built in.?

We created the post writer at https://app.evyai.com/post-create so if you don't have the Chrome extension you can use our post writer without installing anything on Linkedin.?

Make sure you train the AI with a background about WHO YOU ARE and that your instructions to AI about your topic are on point.?

The better your instructions the better the post. Keep regenerating and testing out different instructions and make sure you EDIT the post before you actually post it on LinkedIn.?

You can later turn that post into a VIDEO script, and even use the post on other social media platforms!?

The sky's the limit for you with all the amazing content that you generate using AI.?

I recently posted a post on Linkedin and it went absolutely viral in a few days it got over a million views. I was SHOCKED by the result for the quality of the post that evyAI was able to write for me. Here is the link if you want to see the post.?

Remember that posting on Linkedin is a great way to get exposure and using AI to post on Linkedin will save you lots of time.?

Now let's discuss about expanding your network so more people can see your posts and comments.?

Craft Personalized LinkedIn Connection Notes with AI

Linkedin is very different than other social platforms because every connection on Linkedin also becomes a follower.?

That means if you add 30,000 connections on Linkedin, you will also have 30k followers as well.?

The most effective way to add new connections is by including connection notes with each invitation to people that you want to connect to.?

Sending out generic connection notes is not helpful, actually it makes it more likely that your connection request will not be accepted.?

Instead you want to make sure you include a personalized connection note with the recipients name, context and a reason why they should accept your connection request.?

That is where AI comes in, it will create a personalized connection note in just a second that includes the connections name along with context.?

evyAI considers the best practices for sending out connection notes so you never have to wonder what to include with your connection note.?

Remember that expanding your connections is a powerful way to grow your network and with AI you can do it faster, smarter and in a more effective way.?

Now that you have left comments, created posts and expanded your network it's time to build some credibility with recommendations.??

Leave Well Written Recommendations For LinkedIn Connections

Referral marketing, networking and word of mouth marketing all require recommendations, testimonials and endorsements.?

Linkedin is a powerful tool that allows you to have your connections leave you personalized recommendations on your profile which elevate your presence on LinkedIn.?

If you have ever tried to leave someone a LinkedIn recommendation you will quickly see that it's not as easy as you might think to leave a thoughtful and meaningful recommendation.?

That is where evyAI comes in to help you draft an AI supported LinkedIn recommendation that you will be proud of leaving.?

The AI will read your profile, their profile and the context of the recommendation and will draft a powerful testimonial that you can further customize on behalf of your LinkedIn connection.?

Sending out recommendations to your connections builds trust with them and also gives you placement on their profile as it will be displayed front and center.?

I recommend leaving at least one recommendation per day to a connection that you know, like and trust. This way you will be top of mind with them and also build more trust.?

Let your connection know that you used evyAI to help you draft the recommendation and they can use AI to help you with a recommendation as well to make it easy for them to return the favor.?

Optimize your LinkedIn Profile with AI

Your Linkedin profile is more important than your website because your LinkedIn profile represents YOU and your COMPANY.?

When someone does a Google search for you, chances are that your LinkedIn profile will appear before your own website.?

The reason why LinkedIn ranks so well is because LinkedIn has a very high domain authority with Google so it's really important to make sure your profile is optimized.?

Using AI to help you optimize your profile will save you time and make sure that your profile covers all the right elements for a successful LinkedIn profile.?

Get a photo using a AI headshot photographer, optimize your headline with AI and rewrite your about section with evyAI.?

Remember that you can add keywords that people search for on Google and on Linkedin to your profile so that your profile shows up in search engines for not just your name but also keywords related to how your help your clients.?

Think about what people might search for and make a list of all those keywords.?

For me, I want people to find me when they are looking for a LinkedIn Trainer, Digital Marketing Agency, B2B Marketing or a Professional Speaker with Expertise in AI.?

Do you have a list of keywords that would best represent your personal brand and your business?

If you are posting on LinkedIn you will also want to feature several posts on your profile as well.?

You can use AI inside Canva to create your background photo on your LinkedIn profile and then you will really have a great profile.?

Make sure that your LinkedIn url is customized and you remove all those funny numbers from the url. Mine is just my name LinkedIn.com/in/JoeApfelbaum it makes it much easier for me to remember it when it matters.

Now you know what you need to on Linkedin with the help of AI. Make sure that you download the chrome extension evyAI and use it daily to make your life easier.?
