Communicating on Linkedin is good. Convincing in this way is better. ✨

Any communication strategy starts with the study of its target. By identifying your target audience, you can adapt your messages accordingly, and reach your target right at the heart! ❤️

The different types of content

People go to Linkedin to be inspired, informed, educated and entertained.

They're not coming to read ads! I think they see enough 😉 Ni to read your latest story. Assume that people don't care about your life, what they care about is what you can do for them. Admittedly, this is a slightly radical vision that needs to be nuanced, but it will help you write content that is relevant to your audience... 👌

Here are some types of content that elicit reactions from readers on the platform:

  • Unpopular opinions
  • Quotes that include problems encountered by your target and your response
  • Suspended sentences followed by a position statement
  • Questions/answers on a subject
  • The proof by the numbers
  • Resource lists or TOPs
  • General topics and current topics
  • Personal stories with a lesson
  • Scientific discoveries

You now have a few ways to create good content for your audience on LinkedIn. Good content is one that interests your readers, makes them react and establishes your credibility.

Finding your voice: defining the editorial line

Convincing in writing requires construction credibility and a sense of proximity with your audience (among others). Being recognizable is what you should look for. If you are not using the services of a copywriter, there is a principle that you should know.

Think about how you talk in life. You adapt your register to your interlocutor so that he listens to you. You know that you will not talk to your little cousin in the same way as to the President of the Republic.

On Linkedin it's the same!

Depending on your target, You need to adapt your tone to be heard. Think about the personality of your persona, the robot portrait of your typical customer, and choose your tone, while respecting your personality. There is no question of transforming yourself into another person, the lack of authenticity always ends up being perceived...

There are copywriting structures that will help you capture the attention of your readers and persuade them to trust you. To know them inside out, I'm redirecting you to this article!

If I have to give you only one piece of advice to improve the copywriting of your LinkedIn posts: just like a rocket taking off, you must go full throttle by giving your maximum in your hook!

Be sure to deliver 80% of your subject in the catchphrase. Why? Because people are over-solicited. You only have a few seconds to hang them up. Think of tabloid headlines to understand what people are attracted to...
