Episode Insights:

💡 Create a "thought leadership map" outlining your core beliefs and perspectives on industry trends. Use this as a foundation for your content strategy.

💡 Aim for 4 LinkedIn posts per week, focusing primarily on text-based content that showcases your unique point of view.

💡 Analyze engagement to ensure you're reaching your ideal customer profile (ICP), not just your existing network. Quality of engagement matters more than vanity metrics.

💡 Be patient - expect to see "green shoots" of results within 90 days, more consistent lead flow by 6 months, and significant impact by 1 year.

💡 Use proprietary data and unique insights from your client work to differentiate your content and showcase your expertise.

💡 Consider incorporating personal elements into your professional content to make it uniquely yours, without relying solely on selfies or personal anecdotes.

💡 Leverage your team's expertise by having them interview you about your POVs to generate content ideas.

💡 Write concisely and conversationally, leading with your main point or value proposition in each post.
