How to Start Posting on LinkedIn From Scratch (0, 500, or 1000 Followers)

Hey friend,

I never talked about this topic before, but it’s time to do so:

LinkedIn is no longer just a place to upload your resume - it’s where careers are built, opportunities are unlocked, and reputations are shaped. Whether you’re starting with 0, 500, or 1000 followers, posting consistently can transform how you’re perceived in your industry.

Here’s why:

• Monetize your skills. Your knowledge and insights can turn into consulting gigs, speaking engagements, freelance work, or full-time offers.

• Be noticed by recruiters and hiring managers. Posting puts your skills on display daily, far beyond what a resume can capture.

• Build authority. By sharing perspectives, you set yourself apart as a thought leader and trusted voice in your space.

At the beginning, it may feel like you’re speaking into the void. But every authority leader once had zero followers.

• Post as if thousands are watching. Treat every post as a portfolio piece showcasing your skills.

• Engage with others. Comment thoughtfully on posts in your industry - this will bring new eyes to your profile.

• Share learnings. Document your journey, wins, and lessons. People connect with authenticity more than polished perfection.

Why it matters: This stage sets the foundation. Recruiters who discover your posts will already see your expertise in action.

Posting on LinkedIn is more than “content.” It’s your digital footprint, your career story unfolding in real time. Remember: authority isn’t given - it’s built, one post at a time. That’s I grew mine, day by day for the past 1.5 years.

Start today. Write one post this week about a challenge you solved at work or a lesson you’ve learned. That single step might open the door to your next big opportunity. ❤️
