Instead of spending big on trendy mega-influencers, Gamma found success by scaling relationships with thousands of micro-influencers in niche, high-trust "echo chambers" like education. These smaller, authentic voices spread like wildfire within their communities, driving more effective growth.

LinkedIn now shows impression metrics for comments, signaling their importance. Strategically leaving thoughtful, entertaining comments on others' posts can drive more page growth and followers than original feed posts. Treat comments like mini-posts to test content ideas.

Stop thinking of content as a one-way broadcast. A sophisticated approach involves creating posts designed to provoke responses. Then, systematically mine the comments for raw, unfiltered consumer insights, effectively turning your social channels into a free, real-time market research platform.

Demystify LinkedIn by treating it as a physical conference. Your profile is your professional attire, your content is your keynote speech, and commenting on others' posts is networking during the coffee break. This makes platform functions intuitive and purpose-driven.

Influencer marketing isn't a standalone channel. Gamma discovered that for every user acquired directly through an influencer, they gained an additional 1.5 users via organic word-of-mouth. This highlights its role as a powerful amplifier for existing organic channels, not just a direct acquisition tool.

The easiest way to increase your visibility is to consistently comment on other people's content. To make this effective, be strategic: comment on posts by industry leaders where your target audience will see your name, photo, and headline in a relevant context.

Instead of treating social media as a long-term home, use it as a strategic tool to get your audience onto platforms you own, like an email list. The primary goal is to capture attention and immediately guide followers into your ecosystem, building a more resilient business off-platform.

Counterintuitively, dedicating budget to campaigns optimized for engagements, follows, and shares can be a powerful brand-building tool. This approach reaches more people less expensively than conversion campaigns, building an audience and 'searing memories' that lead to future demand, complementing direct response efforts.

LinkedIn suppresses posts with external links. To drive traffic, create a text-only post and direct readers to your profile's 'Featured' section. There, you can place a clickable, visual link to your webinar, website, or product without penalty.
