Someone made $10,000 in six months posting personal stories on LinkedIn for 30 minutes a day while studying full-time. They hit 10,000 followers, a top-1% benchmark, and brands started paying for posts within a month. LinkedIn has less competition than other platforms and monetizes faster.
LinkedIn needs to be ended is what I would say if I didn't know that I could make $10,000 from it. And I'm really not trying to brag because from what I've heard, this is a pretty low number. But keep in mind, it took me about 30 minutes a day while being a full-time student in school. Within a month of posting, I already had multiple brands and startups reach out to me to post for them. I have never heard of any other way or any other social media platform that allows you to monetize this quickly. This quickly because so few people post on LinkedIn. Like, this is really the meta that people are missing out on. They don't realize how easy it is to stand out. Having 10K followers on LinkedIn puts you at the global 1%. It took me about 6 months to build from 0 to 10K on LinkedIn. It does require you to be consistently posting every day, but it's a lot less work than filming videos and having to post multiple times a day. You just scroll through your photo album, find a picture that you like, write something about it, people will immediately notice because not a lot of people talk about their own personal stories. It's becoming more and more social as people are realizing and waking up to how much money you can make from it. Sure, if you think LinkedIn is cringe, then stay away, but I'm telling you that you're missing out.
