Speaker 1: Hey everybody, this is Neil Schafer, your digital
00:01:12
marketing coach, and welcome to episode number 386 of my podcast
00:01:17
.
00:01:17
As always, I want to begin this episode with some of the latest
00:01:20
news that I have been following that I recommend you check out
00:01:23
as well.
00:01:24
First of all, linkedin has actually launched a free AI
00:01:28
certification course.
00:01:29
This course covers foundational AI topics, practical
00:01:33
applications and ethics, and really are suitable for all
00:01:37
experience levels and can help you boost your career and
00:01:41
professional opportunities.
00:01:42
If you complete the course, you gain a LinkedIn certificate
00:01:46
which can help increase visibility to employers and
00:01:49
demonstrate your AI expertise.
00:01:50
I really love the fact that LinkedIn is doing this and the
00:01:54
source for all the information I share here.
00:01:56
Please make sure you sign up to my newsletter at neilschafercom
00:02:00
slash newsletter to get all the information.
00:02:03
You can also Google it and find it, I'm sure as well, but this
00:02:05
is really cool news and really shows that LinkedIn is on this
00:02:09
mission.
00:02:09
They are social media, but they also want to better equip its
00:02:13
members with relevant digital skills.
00:02:16
So kudos to LinkedIn and if you are still late to the AI game,
00:02:20
you are never too late.
00:02:21
Definitely check out those free AI certification courses.
00:02:25
We also are seeing a new evolution in AI, of the use of
00:02:30
AI to improve other AI models, a method known as AI to build AI.
00:02:36
It's basically leveraging AI to optimize the large language
00:02:40
models and the outputs of AI that we see around us language
00:02:45
models and the outputs of AI that we see around us and it's
00:02:48
really, really interesting because this leads to the
00:02:49
potential that, well, this could be a self-improving AI
00:02:52
explosion or it's AI in a bubble , right.
00:02:55
So you know AI continues to evolve.
00:02:57
There's no immediate action item or recommendation I have
00:03:00
for you right now, but just understand the potential
00:03:04
limitations of AI, that, yes, there are ways in which AI can
00:03:07
improve itself and AI can help improve your business, but at
00:03:11
the end of the day, at some point, especially if you're in a
00:03:14
niche industry, it just might run out of content or ideas that
00:03:17
are going to help you.
00:03:18
So, very futuristic, look at AI very exciting, but also
00:03:23
understand those potential limitations as well.
00:03:25
Would be just want to plant that seed in your mind and then meta
00:03:29
.
00:03:29
So you know, back in the day when Facebook was extremely
00:03:34
popular still is but you know we had the talk that Facebook was
00:03:37
rivaling Google, and then we have TikTok come along, and then
00:03:40
we have ChatGPT come along right.
00:03:41
So meta is obviously they have a lot of conversations that they
00:03:44
are able to leverage to develop their own AI and they have a
00:03:48
chat bot.
00:03:49
They have their own AI.
00:03:50
Now they're reportedly developing a search engine for
00:03:54
their chat bot.
00:03:55
So the chat bot obviously you see in Facebook messenger as
00:03:59
well as when you use AI on their website, but this could allow
00:04:02
you to obviously within Facebook to more easily use AI when you
00:04:04
use AI on their website.
00:04:04
But this could allow you to obviously within Facebook, to
00:04:06
more easily use AI when you publish content, but also be
00:04:11
able to tap into that AI to search content.
00:04:14
In other words, not leaving Facebook if you wanted to do a
00:04:18
Google search or a chat GPT search.
00:04:20
So really, really interesting development.
00:04:22
I think social media back in the day was really all about
00:04:23
eyeballs and making social media back in the day was really all
00:04:25
about eyeballs and making sure you stay on the site as long as
00:04:28
possible.
00:04:28
And we're now beginning to evolve, with LinkedIn offering
00:04:32
AI tool as part of their paid premium package and we see other
00:04:36
networks also providing AI functionality in various formats
00:04:40
and even the marketing tools that we use providing AI
00:04:43
technology.
00:04:44
We're now entering an age where it's not just time on site, but
00:04:48
it's also the utilitarian aspect that we are all going to
00:04:51
use AI throughout the day.
00:04:52
Let our site be the place that you use that AI on.
00:04:57
So, really, really interesting development.
00:04:59
Once again, nothing that you should immediately be doing, but
00:05:03
if you haven't checked out Meta AI, if you haven't spent time
00:05:04
on Facebook recently, it is something you should immediately
00:05:05
be doing.
00:05:06
But if you haven't checked out Meta AI, if you haven't spent
00:05:07
time on Facebook recently, it is something you should definitely
00:05:09
check out just to understand its capabilities for the future.
00:05:12
All right, so today I'm going to talk a little bit about
00:05:15
LinkedIn.
00:05:15
As you know, it's been about six weeks, but I published
00:05:18
Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth.
00:05:20
I'm currently working on expanding that book as we speak.
00:05:23
Growth I'm currently working on expanding that book as we speak
00:05:27
.
00:05:27
But I want to share with you that every year, I remotely
00:05:29
teach a class as part of a professional certification
00:05:31
course at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania,
00:05:34
and the class is geared towards financial sales professionals
00:05:39
and their use of LinkedIn.
00:05:40
So I teach it every year.
00:05:42
It's usually in the fall.
00:05:43
I'll be teaching it later this month and as part of it, and
00:05:45
I've shared this with you on previous episodes.
00:05:47
In fact, it was episode number 258.
00:05:50
This is back in March of 2022.
00:05:53
When I talked about the 10 areas of your LinkedIn profile where
00:05:56
a majority of you are failing, this comes from the same data
00:06:00
that I took as part of this course, because, as part of
00:06:04
teaching the course, I audit the LinkedIn profiles of each
00:06:07
participant based on my proprietary list of 20
00:06:10
components to give everyone a score from one to 100.
00:06:12
And I do plan to provide this audit to anyone.
00:06:15
It will be for a fee because I'm going to put some skin in
00:06:18
the game and really want to help you and spend time with you,
00:06:21
but once my new store is open and I am building a store on
00:06:24
Shopify to help distribute books as well as provide this types
00:06:28
of coaching and consulting services and and audits so so
00:06:31
stay tuned for that.
00:06:31
But I've been teaching this class annually for several years
00:06:34
and, while I do plan on talking again about those 10 areas
00:06:38
where a majority of profiles are failing, actually this year it
00:06:40
was 11 areas and the components and where people fail actually
00:06:44
evolves over time, but that's going to be a subject for
00:06:47
another episode, but this is the first year and I talk a little
00:06:50
bit about this in Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth,
00:06:53
which I believe the LinkedIn algorithm has significantly
00:06:55
changed, even more than in previous years.
00:06:57
So let me give you a feel for what I see, based on the data
00:07:02
for my own posts.
00:07:03
So these are the posts, or I should say the types of posts,
00:07:07
which I got the most impressions for on a quarter by quarter
00:07:10
basis.
00:07:10
So let me take a step back.
00:07:11
I am all about impressions.
00:07:13
It may get a lot of clicks.
00:07:15
It may not get a lot of clicks.
00:07:16
If you read digital threads, you understand my view on
00:07:19
platform authentic content.
00:07:20
It's not necessarily about the clicks and we should be
00:07:23
publishing more and more content .
00:07:24
That isn't about the clicks.
00:07:26
It's the link in bio approach to social media.
00:07:29
I also want to say and preface this with the fact that I
00:07:31
publish very regularly on LinkedIn.
00:07:33
I want to say pretty much every day.
00:07:36
There might be days where I publish twice.
00:07:37
I don't publish on weekends anymore because I just don't get
00:07:40
the visibility when I do.
00:07:41
But I publish a variety of text , obviously a lot of links, and
00:07:46
I think links has been the primary focus of my LinkedIn
00:07:49
publishing.
00:07:49
I publish images, I publish newsletters not as regularly as
00:07:54
I would like to, but I do.
00:07:55
I do live stream video.
00:07:57
I also upload repurposed video from those live streams, so I
00:08:01
definitely publish content in a lot of different formats and
00:08:05
over time.
00:08:05
It gives me really really good data to assess what is working
00:08:10
and what is not, and it's been a while since I've done this, but
00:08:13
I want to walk you through, quarter by quarter, the content
00:08:17
that seems to do one.
00:08:18
I think you're going to see, or I should say you're going to
00:08:20
hear, some common threads here.
00:08:22
So I'm going to go back to 2023 Q1, and I'm giving you the top
00:08:27
three posts for those quarters in terms of impressions.
00:08:31
So 2023 Q1, photo text photo.
00:08:34
2023 Q2, newsletter newsletter photo.
00:08:38
2023 Q3, newsletter newsletter newsletter.
00:08:42
2023 Q4, newsletter live stream image.
00:08:47
2024q1, photo live stream photo .
00:08:51
The image is pretty much the same as a photo.
00:08:52
Sorry about that.
00:08:53
2024q2, live stream photo photo .
00:08:57
2024q3, newsletter newsletter newsletter.
00:09:01
All right, so let's break this down.
00:09:03
I think the first, most important thing and the reason
00:09:06
why I did this analysis, it was inspired by the audits that I
00:09:10
did for this LinkedIn class and recently writing Maximizing
00:09:13
LinkedIn for Business Growth.
00:09:14
But every month, I take a look at my Google Analytics and one
00:09:18
thing that I look for in my Google Analytics is which social
00:09:20
networks are driving how much traffic and how many conversions
00:09:24
.
00:09:24
And, as you know, if you've been listening to this podcast,
00:09:27
pinterest has really come back as the number one driver of
00:09:31
traffic.
00:09:31
It used to be Twitter.
00:09:32
I think the usage of Twitter has really gone down over time,
00:09:34
but interestingly enough, I found that Twitter in October of
00:09:39
2024, actually I saw an increase, even though I am
00:09:42
publishing less frequently there and I saw LinkedIn take a big
00:09:46
drop and Facebook take an even bigger drop, to the point where
00:09:48
I don't even know if it's worth publishing on Facebook anymore,
00:09:51
in all honesty.
00:09:51
But regardless, the big drop in LinkedIn I mean LinkedIn and
00:09:54
Facebook combined do not equal what Twitter generated.
00:09:57
So it just goes to show you you need to have this data driven
00:10:00
approach and I really keep my social media usage on a tight
00:10:04
leash because that ends up the creating content, the engaging,
00:10:07
spending time in the sites can eat up a lot of time if you're
00:10:10
not careful, right.
00:10:11
So the number one thing here is that, probably on LinkedIn, half
00:10:14
of the content that I publish is link-based, but it does not
00:10:18
get impressions and I've been saying this for years.
00:10:21
It's the whole reason why I wrote about platform authentic
00:10:23
content in digital threads.
00:10:24
You know, yes, pinterest, you can still get organic content.
00:10:28
Twitter, yes, you can actually still get organic content.
00:10:31
The data you know backs that up .
00:10:32
Facebook it's been dead for a while.
00:10:34
Linkedin it is dying pretty quickly and the reason is that
00:10:42
if you see what those little images that appear when you
00:10:44
share a link, those default little highlight images that
00:10:46
LinkedIn will show, the size of that the vertical size of it
00:10:48
really got hacked significantly to the point where it barely
00:10:51
shows up in the feed compared to an image or what have you.
00:10:54
So link-based content is pretty much dead on LinkedIn and I
00:10:59
still publish it.
00:10:59
There's still blog posts, podcast episodes, what have you,
00:11:02
but I know it's just not going to get that traffic anymore.
00:11:05
So I'm trying to shift as much away from it as possible.
00:11:08
One way of shifting away from link-based content is to
00:11:11
actually publish what you published in that link in the
00:11:14
form of a newsletter.
00:11:15
So I've been experimenting doing this and I used to
00:11:18
republish my weekly email as a newsletter on LinkedIn.
00:11:22
That was back in 2023.
00:11:23
And you know, when I published it I didn't really see that much
00:11:26
engagement, but now I know that newsletters have probably a
00:11:31
longer shelf life than other content on LinkedIn and LinkedIn
00:11:35
still prioritizes it.
00:11:36
I thought newsletters were sort of dead, but apparently the
00:11:40
newsletters I did in 2024, q3, and I think I only did three
00:11:43
were my top three.
00:11:44
So what I started doing 2023, like I said, I repurposed my
00:11:48
email newsletters.
00:11:49
2024, I would take one singular podcast episode and I would
00:11:54
riff off of that episode and share that episode, including
00:11:57
the YouTube video, because now I'm recording, if it's an
00:12:00
interview, recording these on LinkedIn and on YouTube as well,
00:12:02
and sharing that YouTube video as well for those that wanna see
00:12:05
the whole thing.
00:12:06
So, summarizing some of the nuggets from that podcast
00:12:10
together with that YouTube embed and that has proven to be
00:12:15
really, really successful to the point where well, why don't you
00:12:19
take the concept?
00:12:20
Because a newsletter is a misunderstanding in terms of its
00:12:25
terminology on LinkedIn.
00:12:27
A newsletter is what LinkedIn posts, what a LinkedIn blog post
00:12:30
used to be.
00:12:31
It's just that once you have, I believe you only need 100
00:12:34
followers, but once you have that, if you create a newsletter
00:12:37
, then you can regularly be publishing this and get
00:12:41
subscribers and it gives sort of a taxonomy to what you're
00:12:45
publishing.
00:12:45
So you could have multiple newsletters if you cover
00:12:47
different topics.
00:12:48
I think that'd be a little bit crazy.
00:12:49
But the concept of the newsletter is you are basically
00:12:51
blogging on LinkedIn and it could be similar content to what
00:12:55
you use on your website.
00:12:56
You can try to lead people to your website through the
00:12:58
newsletter, but once again, I think it's the link in bio
00:13:02
approach of just keeping people on the site longer, having
00:13:05
people consume more of your content, and I think that
00:13:08
LinkedIn is seeing that.
00:13:09
Hey, there are people that will engage with images, there are
00:13:13
people that will watch videos.
00:13:14
There's also people because it is a business site that will
00:13:22
read longer form content in the form of a newsletter.
00:13:23
So that, to me, was a really aha moment.
00:13:24
That, okay, I really need to become a more regular producer
00:13:26
of these newsletters because they are getting the visibility
00:13:30
on LinkedIn that a link-based post will not get.
00:13:34
So the other?
00:13:35
Well, let's look at two more big takeaways, right?
00:13:38
Another big takeaway is videos are not performing that well Now
00:13:42
.
00:13:42
I know that there are some people because on the LinkedIn
00:13:44
app, there is now a dedicated video tab.
00:13:45
If you haven't checked on the LinkedIn app, there is now a
00:13:46
dedicated video tab.
00:13:47
If you haven't checked out the LinkedIn app recently you should
00:13:49
and the video tab.
00:13:50
If you are able to get your video in, it can get massive
00:13:54
amount of impressions.
00:13:55
That has yet to happen with me.
00:13:56
But on the other hand, if you look at the videos in the video
00:13:59
tab, it's not the podcast interview content I've been
00:14:02
doing.
00:14:02
It's basically one person talking about one topic and
00:14:06
there's almost like a format of successful content that you can
00:14:10
see there.
00:14:11
So video, I think, and even live streams.
00:14:14
Now some of my live streams have gotten a lot of visibility.
00:14:17
They didn't necessarily have a lot of people join it at the
00:14:19
time, but because they had maybe a famous guest or because of
00:14:23
the topic over time.
00:14:25
Once again it has gotten visibility similar to the
00:14:28
newsletter, but not, as I don't want to say viral, but not as
00:14:31
high of visibility.
00:14:32
But the other thing here and this goes back to the teaser
00:14:36
when I started this podcast was the image, right, the photo, and
00:14:40
this is where you know when I'm in my newsfeed I predominantly
00:14:45
see images and when I do the audits of my students in this
00:14:49
class at Wharton, there are clear discrepancies between
00:14:53
engagement on images versus non-images, and I should also
00:14:58
point out reposts don't really get you that many impressions.
00:15:01
I do a bunch of reposts.
00:15:02
I might even comment on it.
00:15:03
A repost is really not for your benefit but for the benefit of
00:15:09
the original creator of that content.
00:15:11
So if I am a guest on a podcast and they publish it on LinkedIn
00:15:14
, yes, I will repost that at a sentence or two, but it's not
00:15:16
going to get a lot of visibility and I want you to understand
00:15:18
that as well.
00:15:19
That is what the data is showing, but the imagery is
00:15:22
really taking a look at LinkedIn and it goes hand in hand with
00:15:26
these videos that are becoming popular.
00:15:28
In that video tab it is looking at LinkedIn not as a
00:15:32
professional networking site, but as a professional version of
00:15:35
Instagram, meaning you are visual first.
00:15:38
You are visual first with photos, you are visual first
00:15:41
with video.
00:15:42
And this is the first time, as part of this 20 component audit
00:15:46
that I do, where I am now saying , part of this 20 component
00:15:47
audit that I do, where I am now saying one of those 20 things is
00:15:50
are you publishing images?
00:15:52
And that is my challenge to you .
00:15:54
If you have not yet been publishing images, I want you to
00:15:58
do an analysis in your newsfeed from your network.
00:16:01
What sort of images are people publishing.
00:16:04
Now I know that there's the selfie with the long explanation
00:16:07
of they were a failure, they lost their money, and you don't
00:16:10
necessarily need to do that right.
00:16:11
You don't need to follow in the footsteps of quote-unquote
00:16:14
LinkedIn influencers, but you need to find a groove in this
00:16:18
new visual world that we live in , because obviously LinkedIn
00:16:22
prefers it and people prefer it.
00:16:24
They engage with you on it.
00:16:25
So that's my homework for you.
00:16:27
If you're already publishing images and you see that
00:16:29
engagement, you will tend to want to publish more because you
00:16:32
understand that visibility that it brings you.
00:16:35
But if not, really take some time to look around.
00:16:39
Now, interestingly enough, if you go in on any given LinkedIn
00:16:44
profile, you might already know this, but just in case you don't
00:16:46
.
00:16:46
So if you go into any profile, you can scroll down, you'll see
00:16:52
the top matter, you'll see highlights about, you'll see
00:16:55
featured and then you'll see activity.
00:16:57
If you look at the activity tab , it has these little bubbles
00:17:00
posts, comments, videos, images.
00:17:02
If they post all this stuff, if you go to images, you can
00:17:05
actually see the images that people are publishing on any
00:17:10
given profile and then for every one of those images, you can
00:17:13
click through and see the original post.
00:17:14
This is the research that I recommend you do Now.
00:17:17
Graphically created images or just graphics like Canva
00:17:20
graphics that doesn't count.
00:17:21
That doesn't really resonate.
00:17:22
What resonates is pictures of people, like iPhone type
00:17:26
pictures.
00:17:26
So that is my challenge for you is to if you're not publishing,
00:17:31
you're still not sure.
00:17:32
Well, that's not what LinkedIn is about.
00:17:33
It's not about me publishing photos.
00:17:35
I really want you to take a second look.
00:17:37
Look at the content that pops up your newsfeed right as your
00:17:40
initial data source, and then dig into those profiles that are
00:17:44
publishing images that get a lot of engagement.
00:17:46
Go in and look at all the different images they published
00:17:49
and look for patterns, and I think what you're going to see
00:17:51
is, yes, there are selfies, but there's also a lot of imagery
00:17:55
when there are business gatherings, when there is an
00:17:59
event, when they are meeting with a client, meeting with a
00:18:03
colleague, and these are the things.
00:18:06
At the end of the day, I always say and if you've been listening
00:18:09
to this podcast, you probably heard me say it a thousand times
00:18:12
but social media was made for people, not for businesses,
00:18:14
right?
00:18:14
And this brings social media back down to the human element.
00:18:18
I think you know, with COVID and with the emergence of TikTok
00:18:21
.
00:18:21
There is a greater aspect of this human element, this raw
00:18:25
authenticity, as we call it, that's been reintroduced back
00:18:28
into social media and I think that's a good thing and I think,
00:18:31
yes, even on a network like LinkedIn, it is here and it is
00:18:35
here to stay, and those that tap into that will find a lot more
00:18:39
success than those that don't.
00:18:41
So I provided you the data, I provided you the reasoning, I
00:18:46
provided you sort of the steps to take to do the analysis.
00:18:51
All that's left is for you to implement and obviously I have
00:18:56
written Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth as a way to help
00:18:59
you implement.
00:19:01
But I really look forward to seeing you take action on this
00:19:04
podcast episode and if you did take action, or if you disagree,
00:19:07
or if you have further questions, need any
00:19:09
clarifications, please reach out to me.
00:19:11
I really want to make this podcast a two-way conversation.

00:19:19
Don't do the Starbucks barista misspelling of my name.
00:19:21
But yeah, I would just love to hear from you and I hope that
00:19:24
this inspires you to do more and to have better results on
00:19:27
LinkedIn and really on any other social network.
00:19:29
But I think this is really this professional version of
00:19:32
Instagram is really specific to LinkedIn, as you can imagine.
00:19:37
