Turning your LinkedIn into a 6-figure Revenue Channel.

Imagine waking up to a simple business that works around you & consistently hits $10,000/month.

No more feast & famine cycles:

You do what you love. 

You make a difference in people's lives. 

You have time & energy to live your own life.

You can scale to $500k/year without overworking yourself.

You don't worry about the cash flow, as you have recurring revenue.

You don't sell dog shit. You show people what you do and invite them to do the same.

You don't chase Clients. You waste zero minutes talking to people who are not ready to buy. 

Btw, this isn't some unattainable dream reserved for the ones who found a magic pill.

In fact, you don't need a magic pill at all —

Chances are, you've already got what it takes:

You know how to get results for Clients, but lack a system to deliver results at scale.

A system that doesn't require 100k+ followers, 60+ hours a week, and posting guru fluff on Social Media.

That's where The Authority Solopreneur blueprint comes in handy.

Because you create unique targeted content,
↳ You attract people who resonate with you. 

Because you solve problems for them, 
↳ They become your customers.

Because you have an outcome-based Offer that's easy to understand & even easier to buy, 
↳ You turn these customers into clients.

Because you've set your funnel right, 
↳ You create 3 revenue streams from 1 product alone.

When we put The Authority Solopreneur blueprint in place, 

We made $36,347 in 20 days — while working less.

And yes, you're right —

It's simple in theory, but a nightmare to execute all by yourself.

I know because I've made every mistake in the book, and learned how to make six figures a year the hard way.

Now I know better:

The fastest, easiest & least stressful way to scale your business is to find someone who's done it, steal their blueprint and implement it for yourself.

That's how our Club members accomplished in days what they couldn't in months before they joined.

Like S.S., who added $16,103 MRR to their bottom line in 5 weeks.

Or S.G., who doubled their revenue in 2.5 months and bought their dream home.

You can go from "I have no idea what I'm doing" to "LinkedIn is my 6-figure revenue channel" IN 6 MONTHS ALONE.

When Dina approached me in mid-2020, she was starting to get traction as a Copywriter on LinkedIn.

She was getting clients but still struggled with:

∙ Attracting MORE IDEAL CLIENTS, and fewer window shoppers.
∙ Creating QUALITY CONTENT without spending hours on it.
∙ Charging WHAT SHE DESERVED.

I saw an opportunity, so I started working with Dina.

We were classic freelancers. No company brand. No website. No email list. Nothing.

But even without all that, in less than 6 months, we were getting 5 QUALIFIED LEADS A DAY.

All that with ZERO LinkedIn Ads, Pods, Outbound Messages, Automation Tools, or sleazy trick-the-algorithm tactics.

Soon after that, we raised our prices, started being more selective with Clients, and wrote 2 ebooks that made us $60,000+ in revenue.

But most important of all, we created something way bigger —

The LinkedIn Authority Blueprint.

A replicable, PROVEN PROCESS to build Authority & attract high-ticket Clients on LinkedIn for Coaches, Consultants, and service-based business Founders. 

Using the LinkedIn Authority Blueprint, our Clients got involved in 9-figure deals, crossed $10,000 in 6 weeks, and made $3,000 in their first week on LinkedIn.

If you want similar results, here's how we can help you:

✔️ 1:1 COACHING. 

Let's help you implement the exact strategy that made LinkedIn the most profitable channel for both our clients & us.

✔️ LINKEDIN PROFILE. 

→ Get your Profile Review with tips on how to improve it, or 
→ Let us turn your Profile into a 24/7 Sales Rep.

✔️ LINKEDIN CONTENT. 

→ Get your Content Review with tips on how to improve it, or 
→ Hire us to teach your team to build Authority & score high-ticket Clients through LinkedIn.

If you're serious about turning your LinkedIn into a 6-figure revenue channel, shoot me a DM now.

A client asked last week: “How do I sell higher-ticket deals?”

One thing was missing:

His experience was real.
His delivery was great.
His results were solid.

But the way he described his offer?

It positioned him as a low-ticket freelancer instead of a high-ticket consultant.

And here’s the part most solopreneurs never see:

Your offer speaks before you do.

It decides whether people put you in the

👎 $500 freelancer bucket, 

or the

👍 $5,000–$15,000 consultant bucket.

Most solopreneurs never notice this shift,

But people who buy consulting and services notice it instantly.

Because buyers aren’t listening to your knowledge.

They’re listening for structure.
They’re listening for outcomes.
They’re listening for confidence.

A freelancer will often say:

“I can help you with X, Y, and Z. Let me know what you need and I’ll deliver.”

A consultant says:

“Here’s the exact transformation you’ll get.

Here’s the process.
Here’s why it works.
Here’s the timeline.
Here’s the investment.”

Same person.
Same skills.

Different positioning.
Different price.
Different respect.

This is why offers matter more than most solopreneurs think.

When we installed a proper offer for one client, their $1,300/month service became a $10,000/month consulting engagement.

Another went from $500 audits to $6,000 strategic engagements.

Another from $2,500/month to $8,000 upfront.

None of them skyrocketed their delivery overnight.

They simply started speaking the language of a high-ticket expert instead of a low-ticket freelancer.

A friendly reminder:

If your work is excellent but your offer is unclear,

You’ll keep getting low-ticket buyers.

If your work is excellent and your offer is structured,

You’ll attract people who want to pay for outcomes, not hours.

You can love it or hate it, but that's how it works.

👋 Hi, I'm Stevan, and I work with solo coaches & consultants to help them grow a simple $10k/month business built around them. I do it 1:1 & in our private community — The Authority Club. DM me to learn more.

Helping Coaches & Consultants grow a simple $10k/month business built around them. → $7.5M+ in Client Sales. → Learn how: authoritymarketing.kit.com/sign-up

The most underrated skill for solopreneurs isn’t “being good at what you do.”

It’s something else:

Knowing what to prioritize and what to ruthlessly ditch.

Because when you run a solo business, you’re not just:

- Chief Marketing Officer
- Chief Sales Officer
- Chief Delivery Officer
- Chief Scaling Officer
- Chief Finance Officer

You’re all of them. Every day.

And if you don’t know what actually moves the needle, you’ll drown in “important” things that change nothing.

Here’s what I see with most solopreneurs:

They’re not lazy.
They’re not clueless.
They’re not unqualified.

They’re simply overwhelmed by options.

One part of you says:
“I should post every day on LinkedIn.”

Another says:
“I should finally launch that newsletter.”

Then you remember:
“You still don’t have a proper website… and your offer needs work… and you haven’t spoken to a lead all week… and you ‘really should’ fix your branding.”

So you try to do a bit of everything.

A bit of posting.
A bit of tweaking the website.
A bit of reworking your offer.
A bit of planning a funnel.
A bit of random “learning.”

You go to bed exhausted,
But nothing big actually moved.

That’s not a discipline problem.
That’s a priority problem.

If everything is a priority, nothing is.

Here’s what I’ve learned the hard way:

At the beginning (and honestly, for much longer than people admit), your priorities are simple:

1. Have something worth buying.
A clear, outcome-based offer that solves a painful problem for someone specific.

2. Put it in front of the right people.
Not "the audience." Real humans who already trust you and fit your ideal client profile.

3. Deliver so well they’d feel stupid not to recommend you.
This is where you refine your process and earn the right to charge more.

If your calendar is full of things that don’t support these three, you’re not working hard — but staying busy.

Even at a later stage, you do not need:

- A perfect brand.
- A complex funnel.
- Ten different content formats.
- Three active platforms.
- Five core offers.

You need one clear offer, one way to get in front of buyers, and enough mental space to actually deliver and think.

That’s why, inside my own business and with my clients, we build a Freedom-First Business Model:

- One core offer at the center.
- A simple path to get in front of ideal buyers.
- A model where your time is protected and your income is not tied to “doing everything.”

Because once your priorities are clear, everything else gets easier:

Saying no.
Choosing what not to do.
Dropping things that don’t move the needle.
Letting go of the guilt that you’re “not doing enough.”

A friendly reminder:

You’re not stuck because you don’t work hard.

You’re stuck because you work hard on too many things that don’t matter.

👋 Hi, I'm Stevan, and I work with solo coaches & consultants to help them grow a simple $10k/month business built around them. I do it 1:1 & in our private community — The Authority Club. DM me to learn more.

There are two types of value you can provide in your content:

1. Hard value: how-to guides, frameworks, templates, etc.
2. Soft value: insights, personal stories, myth-busting, etc.

Hard value gets you tons of:

→ Likes, reach and engagement
→ “I’ll try your free guide and get back to you”
→ “You’re giving me so much free value. I’ll definitely buy soon”
→ “I’m going to see if this works first, and if it does, I’ll ask about the next steps”

But only a few people follow through.

The other 99.9% never buy.

Everything changes when you switch to soft-value content.

Our 1:1 clients and Club members know this well:

S.H. published his first post and got his first high-ticket lead.

J.F. got 10 leads and 4 yeses from a single post that had only 8 likes.

K.S. closed $3,000 from LinkedIn in her first week with just 300 followers.

All inbound.

A friendly reminder:

Choose your content wisely because it directly affects your revenue.

P.S. Today you can get our “Hard Value vs. Soft Value” Masterclass that made us $90K in 3 months for FREE as part of our Black Friday deal.

Find it in my featured section before we take it down at midnight.

When your messaging screams fear, your Ideal Clients don't come.

This is why many solopreneurs struggle to attract business —

They're afraid of making hard decisions so they stay vanilla.

😬 "I'll solve many problems for many different ICPs (because I'm afraid to choose one problem)."
😬 "I won't exclude this type of Client although they're shitty (because I'm afraid to lose options)."
😬 "I won't say what my service is NOT (because I'm afraid that this means fewer leads)."

Usually, the opposite happens.

When you say it out loud:

💪 "I'll state who I am for and for whom my service is."
💪 "I'll state who I am not and for whom my service is not."
💪 "I'll focus on my Ideal Clients and say no to everyone else."
💪 "I'll be straight to the point without beating around the bush."
💪 "I'll find a way to make it work even with the constraints I have."
💪 "I'll find people who'll help me solve what I struggle with and make it work."

You manage to build authority and attract your best clients.

It's the same in life and business:

The more intentional you are to achieve a certain goal,

The higher the chance to achieve it.

The truer to yourself you are,

The more attractive you'll be and the easier it will be to play the game.

That's how you build Authority online and make your best Clients come your way. 

The best part?

You've already got all the pieces of the puzzle. 

They're your Authority Assets and already in your head. 

All you need is to extract them and make them fit together.

You can still grab our Black Friday bundle in my featured section.

It’s called "Stand Out From Generic AI Content in 2026: The Ultimate Content Bundle" it's down from $197 to $47 until tomorrow.

"Hi Stevan. Would you remind me of the terms of your '1:1 & in our private community', please?"

A message from an inbound lead after reading this in my post:

"Hi, I'm Stevan, and I help solo coaches & consultants grow a simple $10k/month business built around them. I do it 1:1 & in our private community — The Authority Club. DM me to learn more."

I add that sentence to most of my posts these days.

But here’s the truth:

That one line doesn’t bring the leads. Everything before it does.

My lived experience.

Everything I’ve done over the last 37 years.

The mistakes, the lessons, the breakthroughs.

The conversations I have with clients every day.

The stories from my real life that people recognize themselves in.

Shared in a way that builds trust fast and is almost impossible to copy.

That’s the part that makes people DM me.

That’s the part that drives inbound.

That’s the part that works on both LinkedIn and in my newsletter.

And yes — it works even in the era of AI.

I'd even add: especially now.

Which is exactly why we created “Stand Out From Generic AI Content in 2026: The Ultimate Content Bundle.”

It’s the exact system with templates we use to turn your lived experience into content no AI can replicate.

And because it’s Black Friday, you can get it for $47.

Plus, if you grab it before Wednesday, you’ll also get a bonus $97 training video completely free.

Find it in the featured section of my LinkedIn Profile.

I just jumped off a call with a client who asked me: “How do I attract clients without sounding like a sleazy guru?”

And it’s actually simple, just not easy.

Here’s what I told him:

1. Show, don’t tell.

Don’t scream about how good you are.
Don’t tell people you’re “the best.”
Don’t call yourself an expert.

Just show your work.

Show what you notice about your audience.
Show insights from real situations.
Show client conversations that taught you something.
Show results you’ve created. Even small ones.

People trust what they see.
Not what you say about yourself.

This is why my content attracts clients, even with lower reach:

Every single thing I write comes from:

- Real client calls
- Real mistakes
- Real wins
- Real patterns I see every day.

No claims I can’t back up.
No “guru energy.”
No theatrics.

Just lived experience.

2. Sell only what you’ve done for yourself or your clients.

This wipes out the sleazy vibe instantly.

If you’ve solved the problem:

- for yourself
- for a client
- for a past employer,

Then you’re not selling hype.

My best offers came from things I actually lived through:

We built a $100k+ revenue system → we teach it.
We built offers that convert at $1k–$20k → we install them.
We built a Freedom-First Business → we help others do the same.

Nothing else.

No pretending.
No “fake it till you make it.”
No borrowing other people’s stories and calling them your own.

Just truth.

And that’s the whole point:

If your business is rooted in honesty, you’ll never sound like a guru.

A friendly reminder:

You don’t need louder marketing.

You need more realness in your marketing.

Jasmin Alić

Trained 56,289 people how to use LinkedIn for business

Are you struggling to find your voice on LinkedIn? To position yourself as the "go-to" authority in your industry?

Better yet...

If you've been nodding along until here, congrats!

Looks like we might be the perfect fit!

Hi, my name is Jasmin.

Most people here know me as Jay from Hey Jay.

So far, I've worked 1-1 with 200+ amazing individuals who've skyrocketed their content, profile growth, and business on LinkedIn in record time.

🔥 "$15K USD 24 hours after my 1st session with Jay. Before that, I was close to losing hope and shutting down my business" - Nada Buhendi, F500 Career Coach

In the last 3 years on LinkedIn...

I've built the fastest-growing coaching business for solopreneurs and C-Suite individuals. 

Before that...

I spent 15 years writing online and branding companies and individuals. From Fortune 500 elite like Microsoft, Digicel, and Marriot Bonvoy to founders and C-Suites from almost every industry imaginable.

To put it bluntly...

I'm putting all of my 15 years of experience on the line for you and combining it with my deep understanding of this amazing platform. 

I don't need your money. I need you to win.

🔥 "This was the first call with a LinkedIn guru that I got on where there was actual value and alignment in delivery at the end of the call. It was strategy, action and reflection. Absolute value! No fluff all impact!" - Archita Fritz

❤️

Copywriter and Brand Strategist

“How do I share my story?”
“What if nobody reads it?”
“What if nobody likes it?”

These are legitimate concerns for any brand.

Whether you're a company or personal brand...

How you show up in your content is everything.

- You want to be clear in your writing
- You want to be strong in your execution
- You want to be remembered for your service

To do so, you need good copy and a great strategy.

I help brands like Dash, Digicel, Marriott Bonvoy, and Microsoft "sweeten" their brand messaging and content strategy. 

Fortune 500 companies.
Fastest-growing companies.
Personal brands with high net worth.

They trust me with their candy. Will you?

Need a great website? 
Need to grow on LinkedIn? 
Need to (re)position your brand?

Say "Hey Jay" in a message and let's chat.

Or just hop into my Calendly and let me know you're serious: https://calendly.com/jasmin-alic/coaching

I won! I actually won. Man of the Year 2025. 🏆

This was my acceptance speech:

"I work with words. I sell with words. We change lives with words. But I won't need many words for this.

I dedicate this award to my parents. 

Because I don't think anyone deserves to be called Man or Woman of the year more than the people who taught us how to be exactly that. Thank you."

That was last night. Today:

I dedicate this award to my LinkedIn community. To every one of you who've ever supported my work. 

And of course, to my home Bosnia and Herzegovina. Proudly representing everywhere I go! ❤️

What a way to close out the year, fam...

Jasmin Jay Alic wins Man of the Year award for Personal Branding at the 2025 Dama i Dzentlmen Godine awards ceremony in Vrnjacka Banja, Serbia. In this LinkedIn post, Jasmin shares his acceptance speech in written form. The photo shows Jasmin posing with this golden trophy award, smiling wide, while wearing a three-piece black suit and bowtie.

I've been accused of this many times.

Faking my engagement. Being in secret groups.

*yawn 🥱

(read til the end, it's fun, I promise)

Those who follow me on LinkedIn for years know:

1. I've never been in an engagement pod. Have always openly spoken against it. For those of you who don't know what this is...
   
Engagement pods = fake creator bubbles where people support each other like for like, comment for comment, and artificially boost the performance of their posts. 

It's like organized mafia, but on LinkedIn. 🙃

2. Yet I get 1,000s of comments on each post. I sell out my offers. I get business done.

It's because I don't automate my comments. I spend hours here to build relationships. Every word is me.

Literally ranked as the no. 1 engagement rate in the world (Aware). And the no. 1 authenticity score by any big creator (99.9% engagement score by Favikon). 

The raw data doesn't lie. ✌️

3. Even in my Link Up community - my private coaching platform - URLs are forbidden.

Like, you can't even drop a link in the chat! That's how I set it up. That's how much I dislike the idea of "podding" and offering fake support on a post.

Bonus:

This is the funniest part. I still get "exposed" by some "experts" out there for having GOOD engagement on my content. Some are even counting, calculating, measuring... My typing speed. 😂

Yes, my typing speed! 

I swear you can't make this up. 🤦‍♂️

Like, just try harder, folks. Spend more time here. Invest in commenting. Invest in building relationships.

Or you know what, just be a better coach.

Give better advice, you know.

Oh wait, you can't.

Because real expertise can't be bought by fake groups. Thought leadership isn't created in a WhatsApp channel. 

Try harder, eh?

I'll even leave the first comment on your first "real" post. Just as a sign of support.

*wink 😉

Your King of Engagement,

Jasmin

Thanks for reading my rant. Never again talking about this topic. Just writing about this exhausted me.

Necessary rant? Yes/No? Tell me.

P.S. Thanks Huzaifa Khan 🔆 for this fun photo!

Jasmin Jay Alic talks about engagement pods on LinkedIn and creators who fake their engagement numbers. This LinkedIn post is a rant where Jasmin explains how he achieved the number 1 engagement rate in the world (verified by Aware), as well as the number 1 authenticity score by any big creator (99.9% engagement score verified by Favikon). The image is a design showing Jasmin sitting on a throne, with a crown hovering above his head, the number 2026 behind him, and a crowd cheering around him. The image was designed by Huzaifa Khan.

Most of you don't know I quit LinkedIn.

I did so 2 years in a row. But then:

1. I changed my mindset significantly
2. I did things nobody else wanted to do
3. I set so many new trends here, I lost count

So what changed? 😊

1. I stopped looking at post impressions altogether. You've probably heard me say "impressions are irrelevant" many times over the years. Why?

Nobody else sees your impressions. So why care?

2. I stopped caring about "leads per post". Trust me, it's an obsession with no purpose. It's also a myth!
   
Because it's never just one post. Ever.

3. I stopped paying attention to competition altogether. This helped me clear my mind and build the best community in the world. In the words of Dan Go:

"Ignore everyone else's scoreboard". 👌

Hope this post changes some minds today!

P.S. Which one (1-3) do you like the most? Let's chat.

Jasmin Jay Alic shares 3 mindset shifts that helped him to become the Number 1 LinkedIn creator in the world and to set many new trends on the platform. The image shows Jasmin smiling on stage while delivering a keynote at the Linkiaden 2025 event in Norway, Oslo. In the photo, Jasmin is wearing a tailored grey suit. The image credit belongs to photographer Monica Snopestad.

Coaching is the most rewarding job I've ever had.

Because nowhere-else will you hear:

1. "My daughter's in an Ivy League school because you believed in me when nobody else did"

2. "My business has 2 parts: before and after Jasmin"

3. "I would recommend Jay to raise my children"

(yes, the 3rd one is a real testimonial 😂)

When people see my number "57,000+", they assume it's bloated. But that's just my 1-1s, live training (online or offline), and community members.

The real number of "lives impacted" is much higher.

It's why I don't mind overdoing it.

1. I'll schedule a 1-hour live, and then stay for 3
2. I'll literally do back-to-back streams for 6 hours
3. I run a coaching channel: https://linkupbyjasmin.com

Because for me, the reward isn't after the work.

It's in it.

I'm in love with what I do. And from that place of love, I really wish the best for you (you reading this) and your career. Hope your dream job finds you too! ❤️

Thanks for reading this love letter.

- Coach J

P.S. What was your dream job growing up? I wanted to be a rapper. (and I did 6 albums 😉)

Jasmin Jay Alic describes his love for coaching and shares that it is the most rewarding job he's ever had. In this LinkedIn post, Jasmin shares several client testimonials and ways he overdelivers in his work as a LinkedIn coach. The image shows Jasmin taking a selfie in his home studio office.

Most LinkedIn users are lost right now.

It's why I decided to write this post.

I've trained over 57,000 people how to use LinkedIn for business. This 2-minute guide gives you 26 tips on how to make the most of LinkedIn in 2026:

(Save for later OR Repost now ♻️)

1. Align your topics with your profile. The algo doesn't reward fitness tips from finance experts anymore.

2. Make sure your headline draws people IN first. Your headline is irrelevant once they're already ON your profile. Then, the banner + story should take over.

3. Design a banner that actually has a call to action. 99% of banners I see on LinkedIn lack a CTA.

4. Add a link to your profile. Send visitors to your most desired business offer. Make each visit count.

5. Even if you offer multiple things, pick ONE core offer AND model your profile around it. In 2026, I'll model it around my students: https://linkupbyjasmin.com

6. Add links to posts too. Doing so is fine.

7. Comment more than you post. 4 groups: peers, ideal clients, big influencers, and small creators.

8. Forget posting every day. Stick to 3-5 weekly posts, but make them good. Good content lives longer in the feed now. Frequency won't change that.

9. Add visuals when needed. Faces are most powerful.

10. Stop sharing contextless selfies. (unless you do it all the time, and it's part of your brand)

11. Text posts are making a comeback. Write more.

12. Share your opinions, not just tips and tricks. Information is currency. But your POV is gold.

13. Ask more nuanced questions. Ditch the standard "yes/no" for something more meaningful. People REALLY crave real conversations here.

14. Stop using AI for comments. Just... stop.

15. Write for the first 3 lines of your post. Everything else is irrelevant unless they hit "read more". 

16. Share moments. It converts better than just "pro tips". Just last week, I wrote about taking time off, as well as flying people around the world.

17. Most people don't know this but... Optimize your settings here too, especially Visibility. Make sure your public profile is actually "seen". 

18. Enable "InMail" in your settings so non-connections can message you. You'll thank me later.

19. Write longer posts from time to time. It works.

20. Post at least 1 video per month. It builds trust.

21. Write daily. Just for practice. Then... Publish your best, and shelve the rest.

22. Stop trying to appease the algo. You will never succeed. This stuff changes on the daily. 

23. Talk about your failures more. This stuff connects. Can't all be a highlight reel. But more importantly...

24. Flex more! Not the Lambo. Just overall... Talk about what you've done and ARE doing more. Nobody else will do this for you. So tell us!

25. Support and connect with new creators. Daily.

26. Support small creators too. Daily. ❤️

And voilà! 2026, sorted.

If you've read this far, thank you.

Let me know which of the above made you go "a-ha!" or "huh?!" I'd love to chat.

Jasmin Jay Alic shares his 26 tips on how to make the most of LinkedIn in 2026. This LinkedIn post is a detailed in-depth guide with tried and tested strategies, verified by Jasmin Alic, his clients, and his students. The image shows Jasmin staring directly into the camera from his home studio office, with his signature teal lights all around. There is also a giant glowing 2026 caption behind him in the photo.

Before being a LinkedIn coach, I was a rapper. 

So here's LinkedIn explained with rap lyrics:

1. "Sunny days wouldn't be special if it wasn't for rain, joy wouldn't feel so good if it wasn't for pain" - 50 Cent

Meaning: Experiencing lower reach on LinkedIn? It's just part of the rainy season. The lows are what makes the journey special. It won't last forever, hey :)

2. "I do not know anybody who's winning who's taking the time to leave negative comments" - Connor Price

Meaning: Psychology says it takes 3x the effort to think negatively. So if you ever get bad comments under your LinkedIn posts... it's not you. It's them.

3. "Why am I so differently wired in my noggin? 'Cause sporadic as my thoughts come, it's mind-boggling" - Eminem

Meaning: Your perspective is your uniqueness. Everyone can share tips and tricks here. Share your POV! That is how you make your LinkedIn posts stand out.

4. "If I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?" - Kendrick Lamar

Meaning: Sometimes you feel like nobody's reading your posts and you're shouting into the void. But somebody's always reading. Your "impressions" are never "zero".

5. "Everyone shines in different things" - Tupac

Meaning: Forget what everyone else is doing on LinkedIn. Focus on what YOU are good at. You won't get rewarded for others' posts. You will for yours.

Really hope you enjoyed this unusual post from me!

Tell me which lyric above spoke to you.

P.S. Yes, this is a real photo of me from 2012. Did you know I was also on X-Factor and MTV? 😀

P.P.S. Who's your favorite singer?

Jasmin Jay Alic explains LinkedIn with rap lyrics. In this LinkedIn post, Jasmin uses lyrics from 50 Cent, Connor Price, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, and Tupac Shakur to write a creative breakdown of LinkedIn personal branding. Jasmin also says he used to be a rapper in his past career before becoming a LinkedIn coach. The image shows Jasmin performing a rap song live on stage at a 2012 festival.

What's been your biggest LinkedIn blessing?

For me, it's my people. ❤️

I've met my entire team in the LinkedIn comments.

Victoria Michaels is someone who deserves my deepest respect. Not only for being the most amazing team member. But for using LinkedIn the right way!

1. A single mom. Running her own business.
2. Comes from a small town. Yet travels the world.
3. Also an in-house expert in my Link Up community

(the last one doesn't need an explanation, she's dope)

LinkedIn has the strongest names.

And they're only one comment away. Then a DM. Then a call. Then a "hey, wanna meet my parents?"

(she's actually met my parents in Bosnia)

Guess what I'm trying to say today is: 

1. Use LinkedIn the right way, yo.
2. Don't just engage for the sake of it.
3. Engage because it can change your life.

(and other people's too 🙏)

Stop complaining about low reach. Go "reach" just ONE person today and start this change.

Go! Bye. ✌️

P.S. She has no clue I'm writing this post today so make sure to drop some love in the comments.

P.P.S. Who's your favorite LinkedIn person? Tell em.

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a gratitude post to one of his team members, Victoria Michaels. Victoria is the in-house writing expert in Jasmin's Link Up Community. This post also offers motivation for Jasmin's followers to start using LinkedIn the right way and invest time in building life-changing relationships. The image shows Jasmin and Victoria posing for a photo together at the 2nd Link Up international meetup in New York City, USA.

Here's what I learned at LinkedIn Headquarters!

(including stuff about the new algo)

 1. They have the best fries I've tried in NYC
 2. They have logos in different colors on every floor
 3. Nobody knows how the Linky algorithm works
 4. The Empire State Building entrance is massive
 5. Not a single soul mentioned "video" to me
 6. They got cool mugs (that you can't "take home")
 7. They got cool pillows (that you can't "take home")
 8. Nobody knows how the Top Voice badge is given
 9. Not one person used the word "AI" with me
10. They said I was "welcome back anytime"

Learned something new? I did too!

Which is that there's so much advice floating out there that isn't verified, not even by LinkedIn employees.

Please pick your coach wisely. 😉

Now, let me sip my coffee... 👀

P.S. Did this post make you smile? Cheers! ♻️

Jasmin Jay Alic shares some funny learnings after visiting the LinkedIn headquarters in New York City. This post focuses on non-traditional things Jasmin learned, like the color of LinkedIn logos on each floor and how good the fries were. The image shows Jasmin smiling while sitting on a sofa in the main hallway, with a glowing LinkedIn logo behind him, and a blue LinkedIn pillow on the sofa.

"Wait, that's really YOU on LinkedIn?"

I get this reaction a lot when I meet people.

So let me be blunt here.

1. Nobody else has access to my LinkedIn. 🚨

2. When did it become normal for "personal" brands to NOT respond to their own comments and DMs, to the point where others automatically assume you're NOT the one behind your own account?

And...

3. I have TWO superpowers (apparently):

↳ I remember 99% of my commenters when I meet them in person. Yes, even at 1,500 comments on average per post. Yes, even years later.

↳ I respond to every single DM myself. I don't automate the most human part of my business = conversations. Never will. (I sincerely hope I never will)

So to answer this once and for all:

"Is it really you in the LinkedIn DMs?"
"Is it really you in all those comments?"
"Is it really you in your newsletter replies?"

Yes, it's me. Always.

It's not that hard, y'all. 

Message me. I'll prove it.

P.S. Don't message me, please. 😂😂😂 Commenting below is probably easier for everyone!

Jasmin Jay Alic says he responds to every single comment and DM himself to this day, even after 342,000 followers on LinkedIn. This post answers the most-common questions Jasmin gets about whether or not it is actually him behind his LinkedIn interactions, and he assures his audience he is the only one with access to his LinkedIn account. The image shows Jasmin meeting people in person at a conference, surrounded by more people who wish to speak with him.

I bring good news today. So here it goes:

If you posted 1x this week, congrats!

You are a Top 1% LinkedIn creator in the world. 🎉

(I mean this literally)

Because compared to all other social medias:

• Twitter - 10% active users
• Instagram - 25% post Reels, 8% are most active 
• TikTok - 50% have posted all time

But LinkedIn? A mere 1%. 

Yes, only 1% of LinkedIners are actually "active".

• We heard this directly from LinkedIn employees.
• We verified it in Richard van der Blom's report.
• We verified it in AuthoredUp's algo research.

The bar's never been lower.

The table is not just big enough for everyone. But it's expanding too. LinkedIn just crossed 1.3B users!

Do with this data as you please.

Or post something good, you know. 😉

(Repost for others ♻️)

P.S. How often do you post? I do 3-4x per week.

My Link Up community is turning 1 today!

(Read til the end for a surprise)

P.P.S. Let's chat in the comments. Ask me anything!

Jasmin Jay Alic celebrates one year of his Link Up Community. This LinkedIn post shares the numbers and milestones from the community’s successful inaugural year, and Jasmin thanks his members with a heartfelt note. The image shows Jasmin posing for the camera, smiling directly into the camera, wearing a custom brown suit and tie.

Why do some people charge more than others?

Let me teach you my "psychology of trust". 

I've worked with 57,500+ people in training, workshops, and 1-1. The question of "what should I charge" comes up often. This is my pricing psychology trifecta:

Step 1:

Build an opinion-shaping brand.
One that doesn't just "share tips". 
It's one that challenges how they think.

When your prospects think "Wow, didn't think of it this way" vs. "Yeah, that's right"... you win.

Step 2:

Structure your offer → Structure signifies premium.
Label every phase of the process they'll pay for.
Focus on "outcomes" in each "phase". 

When you prospects think "This is exactly what I need" vs. "How long til I see results?"... you win.

Step 3:

Own your pricing. But have several tiers.
A single "No" doesn't mean a forever "Never".
Give them a secondary option, at a different price.

When your prospects think "Wow, this person really wants to work with me" vs. "No deal"... you win.

TL;DR:

1. Change their thinking; often
2. Show them the finish line; clearly
3. Own your price, and offer some spice 

In other words...

Charge as much as you want. 

As long you take care of the psychology behind it.

Pricing Masterclass, over! (Repost if it's valuable ♻️)

P.S. Ask me anything in the comments. Anything!

Jasmin Jay Alic shares his Premium Pricing Psychology. He explains 3 areas where your value needs to be communicated so others can see you as premium. He lists: value-based content, a well-structured offer, and multi-tier pricing as those 3 key areas. In the image, Jasmin is seen smiling at the audience while delivering a keynote on stage. Jasmin is wearing a premium tailored three-piece black suit and tie. The image also includes a caption that says: Premium Pricing Psychology.

I took a day off in the middle of my launch week.

One reason: Daddy-son time. ❤️

I don't give a hoot how many millions I make in my career, I pray to never be too busy to put everything "on hold" and spend time with my loved ones. 

My son. My parents. My partner. My friends.

This was the whole point. ‼️

→ To have "enough" income so you CAN rest freely and go spend it with those you do it for.

→ Not to make "more" money so you COULD potentially spend more time with them.

→ "A lot" vs. "Enough". These lines aren't blurry. They just have to be drawn.

Remember this:

A lot is good. But enough is more than enough. 

Always remember this, friend.

- Coach J ❤️

Sending love to everyone reading this. And especially those who just joined my Link Up community. We were the #2 most profitable community in the world yesterday. 🏆 Wow... Grateful.

Did I miss anything on LinkedIn while I was away? Give me some fun updates, please. Or fun questions :)

I rebranded my profile just for this week! 🎂

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a reminder with this LinkedIn followers about being present in your life and spending time with your loved ones. In this LinkedIn post, he explains the difference between a lot and enough money, and where this line should be drawn in one's career. In this photo, Jasmin is seen taking a selfie with his cat at home. It's an unusual visual change from his usual style of content to share such a personal photo.

If there's one thing I'd eliminate on LinkedIn...

It's pushy DMs. You know those:

1. Pitchslaps 5 seconds into the conversation
2. Assumptions done with (clearly) zero research
3. Unsolicited links, loom videos, or... voice notes ☠️

There's a much better way to do this.

It's called "PBS = Permission-Based Selling". Backed by psychology and rooted in human behavior.

PBS is pretty simple:

1. Ask for permission
2. Get the first Yes fast
3. Get the next Yes sooner

This video gives you a few examples of scripts and questions to ask in your "first" conversation when approaching potential clients.

Hope this helps! (Repost if so ♻️)

P.S. Anything worse here than a sleazy, salesy DM? AI comments maybe? Let's chat. 😊
