0:00 Okay, so here's a way that I comment. I don't spend a ton of time on this. Again, you comment according to how much you want to grow. 0:09 I've got quite a lot of projects on at the moment, so I'm not commenting a ton at the moment. But it's important that you treat comments as a mini-post in themselves. 0:17 Again, another tip from, from Yasmin Aliq, that he posts about quite a lot. But if I go into one of my other lists, so I'm now in commenting mode. 0:28 So, Richard van Blom, 25 minutes ago, not too bothered about the algorithm. So I might Some interesting stats, I might save this for later. 0:45 So, I'll engage with that. But my, my, my view is the algorithm is that it's a waste of time trying to gamify LinkedIn, just producing consistent content is the best way to go. 0:55 So I then might post saying, my best advice, which is a hook, Don't focus on the vanity metrics, that produce results. 1:21 And then I'll say something like, Followers are better than impressions. Emails are better than followers. Uhm, leads are better than emails. 1:47 And then a nice little sign off to say, uhm, sanity over vanity every time. 2:08 Yeah, so that could be a post on its own saying you're overwhelmed There we go, so that's more targeted now. 2:28 So I'll post that, uhm, so it takes a little bit of time, like it's taken 30 seconds or so to go through that, but if that stays at the top and if Richard's post does really well then there's a chance that I'll get quite a lot of impressions from that. 2:44 I commented on that Stephen Bartlett's, or one of Stephen Bartlett's posts, not too long ago, uhm, and my comment got more impressions, uhm, from his post than I did posting myself, yeah, so it's just an example there. 2:58 But then what I'll do is I'll also interact with some of people, uh, some of the people that are also posting in the comments as well, because they might be within my ICP, might be worth a connection, yeah, uhm, so this dude, Gillies. 3:13 Uhm, fractional VP of growth, sometimes I work with marketing teams, so again, I might want to comment, uh, on Gillies, uhm, interaction there, and once I've commented on his comment, I can use it as a reason to, to reach out and connect, yeah, so I can say, uhm, hey Gillies, I saw your comment on Richard 3:36 Van Der Blom's, post, I'd love to join your network, yeah, so I'm, I'm doing that as a continuation of commenting, not only do I want to comment and make use of other people's, uhm, audience and the size and the reach of their posts, I would also want to use it to find people that were in my target market 4:04 as well, so comment, connect, use the comment as a reason to connect is a more likely way of getting somebody to connect with you than not, and then just repeat that process. 4:13 Yeah, so, so now I've commented on Richard van der Blom, we can go blom and then I might say like sublike for Gilles just to keep track of my process so I can analyze better days versus bad days, and then I can say that I sent a new connection request to Gilles and just track the way that things are 4:37 going there as well. So as I say, you don't have to go through the checklist, yeah, and this is the most useful part, you know, just having the shortcuts to these links just to make it a lot easier. 4:49 but it's up to you if you want to go through the checklists and just do it, uhm, comment by comment, connection by connection, as well.
