If you’re like most professionals, then you probably spend a lot of time on LinkedIn. However, are you constantly browsing articles, watching videos, and networking with people. Our team just started using Linked to apply for freelance jobs. A few months ago, we stumbled upon an article that completely changed the way we look at LinkedIn. It was so eye-opening that it made us rethink our entire job search strategy. In this post, I’ll share the article with you and explain how it has impacted our lives. Stay tuned!

Writing articles on LinkedIn is a great way to get your content noticed online. More importantly, it’s a great way to find jobs. In 2022, we are on a mission to find more jobs. By writing articles with research and case-studies, we are developing massive opportunities. LinkedIn changed my life! We are creating opportunities instantly. Here’s two (2) steps that will allow you to start writing better professional articles on LinkedIn today!

Step 1: Write an intro paragraph that quickly and concisely explains what the content is about. For example, “This blog post will teach you how to write short form blogs.”

Step 2: List three or four points that will be covered in the blog post. Let each point stand alone as its own statement. Then, state clear points to elaborate on your statement.

List your key points below as your mission statement that enable your readers to take action. Give these key points as examples of how readers can apply the information you just gave them in your article. Take a look at our founders LinkedIn profile:

Articles provide great context for your reader to explore. It all depends on how the article is written though. For example, if your content is brief, concise and to the point then your reader will get the message. Some writers use this structure as a story in articles. Yet, are stories really purposeful in articles? Think about it for a second. Few writers maximize the structure of their articles. We like to offer our writers different ways to view their drafts, For the purposes of this blog, we want to propose three questions pertaining to LinkedIn:

  1. Have you ever applied for a job when it is in high demand?
    2. What are the most important aspects to consider in your cover letter?
    3. When do you think it is appropriate for HR or hiring managers to contact you with follow-up questions after submitting an application?

Articles are becoming increasingly popular for its ability to quickly and succinctly capture the interest of an audience Think about how your article can be interactive and concise. It may be repurposed from video or audio format. Yet, if you are highlighting the written aspect of your content, you are capturing a major opportunity. My intent is to show you how to focus on the key points of your mission as a brand message.

We want our community to use less than 10 words in a sentence, check grammar, and format their drafts. it’s the little details when writing. Our goal is to assist our writers that believe in articles. Most people might say articles are a lost cause. We would say they’re entitled to their opinion!

Our articles stands on the purpose to call on attention with information. Our society has a decreased attention span. We don’t want to bore our viewers, listeners, or readers with nonsense. Written content should be providing information. Take the time to talk about any pain points or trending topics that need to be addressed. Take polls about what might interest your community before diving into the details.

If you want to start writing articles on LinkedIn, here are some points that will be essential for professionals, connections, and recruiters. Start by giving acknowledging other professionals in your industry who have helped you get where you are now. Use your your resume and cover letter as an extension of who you are professionally. List three or four key attributes of yours which make you a perfect candidate for positions. Finally, write to inform and educate. Let your peers read about your expertise.
