LinkedIn in 2020 rewarded almost anything. A quote, a blog link, a quick thought from your day. If you showed up regularly, it worked.

In 2025, that approach falls flat. The platform is more crowded, the algorithm is pickier, and the audience is more selective. What used to get reach now gets ignored. What used to convert now gets scrolled past.

In this episode, I explain exactly how LinkedIn has evolved over the past five years. I compare what worked then with what works now. You’ll hear how content reach has shifted, why lead generation requires a clearer message, and why most outreach goes unnoticed. I also explain why follower counts matter less than people think and what that means for how you build trust and visibility.

This is not a motivational pep talk. It is a practical breakdown of how to use the platform properly in its current form. If you want to stop guessing and start getting results again, this will give you the clarity you need to adapt.

LinkedIn still works. Just not the way it used to.
