My boss pushed me to "build my personal brand" on LinkedIn, so I stopped posting walkthrough clips and started posting a plain weekly tally of jobs I closed
Everyone in my office swears the video clips get you noticed, but after 6 months of editing on weekends I got 3 views and zero leads. I switched to a boring Monday post with one line, like "4 doors hung, 2 estimates sent," and a GC from Fresno actually messaged me to bid a job. Anyone else find that the plain numbers post beats the flashy stuff?
Watched a buddy burn his whole Sunday editing time lapses of his crew and got nothing from it. I figured the flashy stuff was the only way to stand out, so I kept telling him to post more. Then he tried just listing what he got done each week and a builder reached out within a month. That shut me up fast. Turns out people hiring just want to see you're busy and can finish. Sounds like you found the same thing. How many weeks did it take before the Fresno guy messaged you?
