"AI has ruined LinkedIn post performance..."
Across the last 9 days LinkedIn posting brought myself, my business, and my clients 129,000 impressions, of which 83,000 were new unique viewers.
This isn't the first time I've had a six figure week , I've had 7 separate weeks of 100,000 + post impressions and each time we have seen a rise in:
Booked 1:2:1s, leading to an increase in weekly revenue.
Outreach from business owners, leading to more sales calls to close.
Increases in traffic to both our business pages and our website, leading to greater awareness of what we do.
But what makes a 100,000 impression post in 2026?
The most important thing, is writing to your audience or target.
Who do you seek to help? If this is too vague a group then you need to niche down on who you can help the most through the simplest process and repeat this.
Address the problem that you seek to solve, the methods you use to do this, and the case study successes that you have.
Write it yourself, do not begin with AI.
Ai is great at many organisational, time consuming processes, in my opinion, it is not good at writing effectively for humans to consume, yet.
Write your own thoughts first, and if it is not to grammatical standard then use an AI assisted check.
Pick a topical question to theme your post around, you want people to input their thoughts in the comment sections.
The more people comment, the more you respond, the more LinkedIn will push your posts.
If you are consistently posting on LinkedIn and have seen a significant drop in performance from 2025, shoot me a message, I'd be happy to give you a 15 minute free LinkedIn audit!
