LinkedIn for founders: presence without the cringe
Founders know LinkedIn matters and dread the performative version of it. The good news: the posts that work for founders are usually the least performative ones.
Write from real experience
Specific lessons from running the business beat generic motivation every time. You already have the material; you just have to share it plainly.
Pick a couple of themes
Rather than posting about everything, own two or three topics you genuinely know. Over time that's what people associate you — and the brand — with.
Consistent, not constant
One thoughtful post a week, sustained, beats a burst that burns out. Presence compounds slowly; the only failure mode is stopping.
Key takeaways
- Share specific lessons, not motivation.
- Own two or three themes.
- Post consistently, not constantly.
