Most People Use LinkedIn Wrong — Are You One of Them?

Want to know why I highly recommend Jason Osborn’s liveLinkedIn training?

Because he’ll show you how to use LinkedIn to land more clients — without spinning your wheels or being a pitchy pest. (Details below).

Most people treat LinkedIn like Facebook or Instagram and wonder why nothing happens. (The wheel spinners).

Or they act like this annoying guy named Brecht (the pitchy pest).

The Tragic Tale of Brecht

A few years back, I accepted Brecht’s LinkedIn connection request, and then he messaged me to request that we “collaborate” (that’s pitchy pest code for “hire me”).

He said he could help me grow with his “Neuro-Emotional Persuasion Scaling model.”

I passed.

Twenty-four hours later he responded with this:

“?” (That’s pitchy pest code for “WTF!? I asked you to meet yesterday. Are we gonna meet?)

I didn’t respond.

Three days later he chimed in: “Would you be open to having a quick 10m connect call to look at any possible hidden gaps in your client acquisition process that might be preventing you from scaling?”

I answered: “No thanks, Brecht.”

Four weeks after I said, “No,” Brecht resurfaced — like The Creature from the Black Lagoon.

“Oh I apologize, I didn’t mean to offend you,” he wrote.

(Offended? No. Annoyed? Yes!)

My answer was still, “No.”

If you’ve spent any time on LinkedIn, you’ve seen ’em…

…the pitchy pests who say, “Thanks for connecting. Let’s jump on a sales call.”

Most slither back to the lagoon if you ignore them or say, “no.” Some, like Brecht, resurface — even after you tell them to shoo.
