I went from averaging 500 impressions a day to 20,000 a day this past week.
Here's 3 things I am doing now that I wasn't a week ago.
Daily commenting, it's the easiest way to learn more about your industry, increase brand awareness, and come up with posting ideas.
Also contributes to our impression count so adding valuable insights to more popular players in your field can be a way to leverage greater audiences.
Targeted posts, I have two main day-to-day focuses, driving awareness to my employer and to my business.
So who is the main customer of my employer:
Top 5 ranked university students, e.g. LSE, Oxford, and Cambridge.
Decision makers at high-end service businesses e.g. Luxury residential homes, student accommodations, and summer school organisers.
Parent's or students seeking admissions support to these top universities.
What about for my own business:
Students seeking application guidance to graduate jobs and early careers opportunities.
Business and CEO's looking to grow their LinkedIn.
Senior professionals seeking CV and LinkedIn support.
Constantly updating my profile to appear much more like a landing page than a social profile.
No one is on LinkedIn to find friends, were all here to either find a job, build a business, or purchase a service.
If you want any of these things to happen you have to make it obvious and as frictionless as possible to do so.
If you need either LinkedIn support, careers support, or academical support, get in contact with me ASAP!

"LinkedIn is the new Instagram"
So why haven't you made it work for your business yet?
I currently help over 10+ business with their day to day LinkedIn strategies and activities across the UK and US.
Alongside Jordan Fleck from Driven Media Group, we have integrated linkedIn strategy into multiple brands that were looking for something a little more targeted.
The owners were work with most reguarly have some common factors:
They already operate well-established business and have extensive local networks from their time within their industry.
These networks are bigger than they know and often underutilised as contacts have moved to new places and begun new ventures.
These companies aren't seeking fame, they want to increase awareness of their specific services within their target audience.
So how do we do this effectively?
We do not reinvent the wheel, we do not offer anything that is different in theory, our practice & execution is what delivers.
We focus on the already present strengths of our clients, their networks and warm leads.
From here we either generate new lists of mutual contacts through LinkedIn or we improve the quality of pre-existing lead sheets.
We stick to a regular and attainable quota, egarness is great but consistency is better.
LinkedIn allows for 100 connections per week so we'll do our best to find 100 suitable connections to make, we do not NEED to hit this, any business would rather have 500 genuine leads than 100,000 viewers.
We focus on activity over passive management.
In a time where AI dominates we find lots of issues with an automated or semi-automated approach. Humans still by from humans and it's often that personal connection that creates successful client relationships.
If you are a business owner and are unsure where to start, my inbox is open.

Here's a 5 step LinkedIn frame work I used in the 2024/25 academic year to land a London-based full-time job as a 2:2 graduate from a non-target university:
Improve your LinkedIn.
Get a clear headshot, either using an iphone or go to your universities LinkedIn days, or even the post office, they provide free headshots.
Make a banner on Canva, it's free and easy, it takes 5 minutes and makes a difference.
Write clearly not about what you do but how good you are within your job compared to the rest.
Connect the only recruiters, hiring managers, personal assistant to CEO's, executive assistants of companies, and small business owners.
Send a tailored message to each, that is short, to the point, and doesn't ask for a job, but asks for advice.
Make it clear to those who view your profile the following: What can you do, who have you done it for, who do you want to do it for, and when can you start.
Match your LinkedIn strategy to your job application strategy.
If you' like a 1:1 session on how to do the last step, shoot me a message!
