I used to make 100 half a$$ed comments a day and nobody, not even the poster, would acknowledge them. My comments were "Chat GPT written", before Chat GPT was a thing 🤣 I had to switch up my goal & focus: Goal: Build relationships with GTM leaders in the SaaS industry Focus: Quality impressions>Quantity impressions Quality comments and conversations leads to quality impressions. To do that, you have to do less. To do less, you must narrow down and figure out who you want to network with. I created an excel sheet of 200 leaders and started the next day. 100 below par comments turned into 10 well-thought out comments. The results started to pour in after a month - 0 likes turned into 3-7 likes. - 0 comments turned into 2-3 comments. My comments were hitting hard, I found my flow. Amazingly enough, these comments broke the ice between me and the leaders on my list and they led to organic conversations in the DMs, phone calls, text messages, in-person meet ups, and hugs at big industry events. 4 years later, I've built up a network of amazingly talented SaaS leaders who are pushing barriers and changing the industry for the better! The work I put in and the relationships I built, led to me becoming SalesIntel.io's community leader 🙂 The time I spent, has allowed me to build a voice that I can use to support the companies and movements I care about. Was the path tough? Yes. Would I do it again? Yes. #linkedin #networking #relationshipbuilding
We need more people like you here... a lot of half a$$ed or AI written posts/comments lately
"Building genuine relationships is key to long-term success, well done Jason Hasenberg
Thoughtful comment here. Very cool, and I think what's even cooler is that it was a conscious decision. A set goal as opposed to: hey this is actually working so let's continue
These are great tips especially since you just lived it. Congrats on “community-ing” so well. 😉
Great strategy, persistence definitely pays off! 🙌
I love your content Jason Hasenberg! Keep up the great work my friend!
It's the hugs at industry events for me 💚
Congratulations!
