    It Is Not Just Who You Know on LinkedIn. It Is Who Knows You.

    Lindsay Mustain · Talent Paradigm

    Ever heard about building authentic LinkedIn connections?

    It's not just who you know.

    It's who knows YOU.

    And it's crucial for senior professionals eyeing six-figure roles.

    But not just any connection will do.

    Authentic ones create a ripple effect of opportunities.

    How do you get started?

    Start by engaging with thoughtful comments on posts in your field.

    Take those insights and spark deeper discussions in direct messages.

    Watch how this approach gets you remembered.

    No more cold outreach or slimy DMs.

    Your connections start to feel genuine.

    Discussions become meaningful.

    And guess what?

    Decision-makers will start noticing you.
