Getting zero likes and zero engagement sucks.

Especially when you put the time and effort into creating and publishing your content.?

I did it for the first few years of creating content and getting little to no responses. What was funny was my quiet reader, the lurker. They would come out of the woodworks and say, “String, I read your 30 days of Tinder experiment. It made me laugh.”?

With creating content on social, you don't know who reading or reacting. They are silently out there

I kept going, because creating made me a better communicator. It gave me access to a wider network of amazing minds and opportunities. Creating allowed me to become a better person.

But, it can be lonely. It's lonesome creating on your own.

It’s why I created TTV7 and TTV28 LinkedIn challenges; it’s something I wished I had at the start of my journey.?

As a community, we grow, create and get more visibility together.

Atm, we're running the last week of TTV28 for the July cohort,and it's blardy thrilling to see the creators grow.

For 28 days, we publish content every day!?

The TTV28 challenge gives us the space, resources, and tools to increase your visibility on LinkedIn.

Louis used TTV28 to launch his business for animated stories.

Cindy gained 60k views on a post, and she has less than 1,400 followers.?

Now, Cin and I collaborating to create a 7-Day LinkedIn Creation Challenge and focus on the creative storytelling.

Andras had a sizable and relevant audience with the hospitality industry. He used TTV28 to activate his connections and be top of mind. From being?silent?to,?I’m proud to be The Trusted Voice of Food Content Production.?This is his journey.

We have folks in the community who are using it to raise their voice and profile. Some are experimenting and redefining their voice.?Some are learning how to use LinkedIn more effectively.

As you can tell, I'm a proud mama.

?? The key takeaway is to be in a creation mode and to keep creating.?

Don’t give up after one sh*tty post.

One post won’t hit the algo, nor will it happen if you don’t post consistently. We got to train it, we got to trigger it with likes, conversations and more relevance. But in the first 7 days with The Trusted Voice, you will get more likes and views.?No more nada posts.
