Hi everyone, As promised at Barbara's 10 AM CT networking session this morning, here's the LinkedIn Algorithm 2026 checklist I put together, inspired by what Richard van der Blom released on April 29 at the TRIBE session. Two parts: a 10-section checklist of what's working on the platform right now (built from publicly available 2025 and 2026 research), plus a blank template you can fill in with your own notes as you go. Hope it helps!

Good morning, Here is a our Thursday's Stop the Scroll posting Forum. I call it "Forum" because we unfortunately don't get the chance to be together. Despite that, I hope you'll all have a great day and you'll be able to Stop The Scroll. !!!

I had a conversation last week with a CEO doing $4M in revenue. Smart guy. Great business. Kind heart. When I asked him about his LinkedIn strategy, he said: "Joe, I tried that. It doesn't work for my industry." I asked: "Have you posted anything in the last 90 days?" Long pause. "No." That's the thing about limiting beliefs. They don't show up as "I'm afraid" or "I don't know how." They show up disguised as confident statements that sound like strategy. "It doesn't work for my industry." "My buyers aren't there." "I tried it once and got burned." These aren't strategies. These are beliefs. And in 2026 — with LinkedIn at over a billion members, AI rewriting every aspect of how relationships are built, and your competitors quietly building moats while you stay silent — these beliefs are costing you real money. Not theoretical money. Not opportunity-cost money. Actual deals you're not closing, relationships you're not building, and revenue going to the people who showed up while you stayed quiet. Here are the 25 most expensive ones. Find yours. Get honest. Then drop a comment with the one that just hit you in the chest. 🎭 Identity & Status Beliefs 1. "LinkedIn is for people climbing toward where I already am." The real cost: You assume visibility is for the ascent, not the summit. Meanwhile, the partnerships, strategic intros, and high-ticket clients you actually want only come from being seen by the right people. Invisibility costs you relevance. 2. "Real CEOs don't need to post." The real cost: Customers can't refer business they don't know exists. Your "I'm too successful to post" silence is funding your competitor's growth. 3. "My peers will think I'm insecure or going through something." The real cost: You optimize for the opinion of 12 people in your Forum and ignore the 12,000 buyers who would have hired you if they knew your perspective. You're trading scale for safety. 4. "I don't want to be one of those LinkedIn people." The real cost: Cringe is not a strategy. By avoiding ALL LinkedIn presence to avoid bad LinkedIn presence, you've abandoned the platform that builds real relationships at scale.
