Launched a LinkedIn newsletter right around the start of the year and treated the first month as an experiment, not a vanity play. Here’s what happened so far: - 3,168 impressions - 294 article views - 29 engagements - 304 subscribers What I’m optimizing for isn’t just views, it’s: - Building a consistent touchpoint with my ideal audience - Creating assets I can repurpose into posts, carousels, and DMs - Testing topics to see what actually earns clicks, not just likes Here’s the simple approach I’m taking right now: - One clear promise per issue (not a “magazine” of random tips) - Tactical, screenshot-level breakdowns, not theory - Strong CTAs back to conversation (DMs, comments, or replies) - Treating subscribers as a lab: using their questions to fuel future issues If you want to see the newsletter and steal what’s working, you can subscribe here: https://www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7417596452002045954 Now I want to turn this into a discussion for all of you: - Are you running a newsletter on LinkedIn (or elsewhere)? - What’s actually moving the needle for you: topic, cadence, CTAs, or distribution? - If you’re not running one yet, what’s the blocker? Drop your experiments, screenshots, or questions in the comments. Let’s build a mini “newsletter lab” inside this community and refine our systems together.

Hi all! We're wrapping up January, which means it's the perfect time to share and reflect. What experiments have you run on LinkedIn this month? Whether it was testing a new content format, posting at different times, trying carousel posts, or experimenting with your hook styles - I'd love to hear about it. Drop a comment below with: 1. What you tested 2. What you expected to happen 3. What actually happened 4. What you'll do differently (or keep doing) in February No experiment is too small! Even "failed" experiments teach us something valuable. Let's learn from each other.

Everyone talks about the year “winding down,” but this is actually one of the best moments to spark new ideas and plant seeds for 2026. Let’s use these last couple of days of 2025 to get a head start instead of waiting for January 1.​ https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7411837377507205120/ In my LinkedIn post today, I broke down two huge moves (Meta + Manus, NVIDIA + Groq), three predictions for 2026, and why the real action is going to be in agents, inference, and “weird but working” consumer AI. The theme: 2026 will reward people who move faster and experiment earlier, not people who wait for the perfect plan.​ Here’s what I want to do with this community: - Before January 1, sketch ONE concrete AI experiment you’ll run in January - Keep it small and real, not theoretical When you’re ready, drop a comment with: 1. What you want to try 2. The smallest version you can ship in 2 weeks 3. The one metric you’ll use to know it worked I’ll read through and respond with ideas, examples, or tweaks where helpful. Let’s make these “quiet” days the time we quietly get way ahead.
