There was a period a few years back where LinkedIn was the easiest place on the internet to get organic reach. As such, the marketing guru set were all recommending LinkedIn as the best place to “build an audience”. I haven’t checked, but I’d guess the juice has been mostly squeezed out by now.



I don't even know what kind of "audience" people are trying to build? Who even reads, let alone cares about these generic business grindhustle posts? And what is the "audience builder" getting out of any of this? I mean, if you read this, are you really going to offer the writer a job?

Crush It with These 5 GAME-CHANGING Strategies!

Hey #LinkedInFam! Ready to LEVEL UP? Here’s how:

Hustle Harder: Rise and grind at 4 AM—no excuses, just results!

Network Like Crazy: Your connections are your gold. Build them everywhere!

Disrupt the Norm: Obliterate the status quo and challenge every rule!

Own Your Brand: Develop a killer personal brand and make everyone know your name!

Keep Learning: Invest in yourself—read, attend, and evolve. Knowledge is power!

Push boundaries and share this with someone who needs a boost! #Hustle #Success #PersonalBrand #Disrupt
