TL;DR
- Executives: Authority + culture. 2–5 posts/week. Mix vision, product guidance, and people leadership.
- B2B sellers: Social selling. 4–5 posts/week. 80/20 value-to-offer ratio; case studies and prompts that start DMs.
- Job seekers: Recruiter visibility. 2–3 posts/week. Proof-first content plus optimized headline, About, and skills.
Executives: authority multiplication
- Profile: Headline = role + value promise; banner with product or mission proof.
- Content mix (weekly): 1 industry take, 1 product how-to, 1 culture/people story, optional quick video (<90s) or carousel.
- Cadence: 2–5 posts/week; avoid link drops. Rotate formats to prevent streak penalties.
- CTA examples: “What’s the counterintuitive trend you’re seeing?” “How would you deploy this with a 3-person team?”
B2B sales: social selling sequence
- Profile: Headline: “I help [ICP] get [outcome].” Clear contact link. About section lists pains solved.
- Content mix (weekly): 2 case studies, 1 resource drop/template, 1 poll for discovery, 1 soft offer.
- Cadence: 4–5 posts/week; 24h spacing. Comment on prospect posts daily; warm DM after rapport.
- CTAs: “Save this outbound checklist.” “Which step loses you the most replies? Tell me in 15+ words.”
Job seekers: recruiter visibility
- Profile: Headline with role + quantifiable achievement; About’s first 35 words matter. Skills list up to 100.
- Content mix (weekly): 1 project breakdown, 1 skills demo carousel, 1 poll about tool/approach, 1 advice or lesson learned.
- Cadence: 2–3 posts/week; avoid weekend publishing. Keep external links to comments.
- CTAs: “What would you improve in this project? 15+ words please.” “Save this portfolio checklist.”
Universal engagement moves
- Comment prompt on every post asking for 15+ word responses.
- Self-reply at 60 minutes and 6 hours with bonus proof or resource link in comments.
- Rotate formats (carousel/poll/video/image) and keep ≥24 hours between posts.
Tailor cadence, format, and prompts to the persona goal and you’ll stay inside the algorithm’s good graces while attracting the right audience.
