Here are the 5 most common mistakes

1. Using LinkedIn as a dumping ground without realizing

No one wants to read garbage

Cluttered, with no space. Readers have pains trying to read.

And you instantly lose readers. Gone for good.

You wonder why. No one engages with your content. Cuz it sucks big time.

So many of you are writing LinkedIn posts like this.

LinkedIn isn't your dumping ground to dump and run.

Pause reading and go back and check your posts

Are you one of them that dump and run?

YES or NO? Comment below

How about you write it like this?

2. Stupidly Verbose

This is easily the most stupid thing many do without realizing.

Yes, trying to appear very intelligent by using very complex, irrelevant, and useless words to explain a simple thing. See the above example.

Are you one of them? YES OR NO?

Check your posts and confirm

3. Overly Promotional

You know me, me, and me and me posts on LinkedIn or elsewhere. This type of post instantly puts people off. See the example above.

It sucks so bad that people run away as fast as they can and never return.

Go check your posts.

Are they overly promotional?

4. Lack of Structure

This is a big one. Just like the dump and run, and stupidly verbose, many LinkedIn users do not know how to write posts that are easy to read and follow through. Structures.

See the example above. People are lazy. So make it easy for them and they will love your content.

Ensure a smooth flow from the start, build momentum to a climax, and then slowly warm down. Writing with structure allows you to achieve that.

5. Writing Without Rhythm

While this may not truly apply to most business executives or industry experts, there are some that may want to go against the tide and be unconventional enough to grow their brand.

BAMF media guys made this hack known on LinkedIn but it seems like very few people use this.

Turns out, this is one very effective hack to explode your LinkedIn brand. We even use it for our clients and it works wonders.

Study the above post and see the rhythm.

He starts short and then continues to build anticipation with every line to the top, then descends, and then ascends again.

With every line, he leaves the reader salivating for more.

You do it right, and you will certainly explode your growth on LinkedIn
