Does anyone know how people get the "Top Social Selling Voice" on LinkedIn?

A little curious. I see posts from these people, but how are they getting these badges? Is there a contest? Is there an application? I Googled - instructions unclear.

Can the influencers in the war room please throw some light?

Because you're not on LI all that much for the social aspect?

I tend to learn about LI shenanigans here, not on LI itself.

I won't give her the attention she so craves on LI, but you had better believe I'll make fun of her in here.

If someone who had that badge reached out to me, I'd run far and fast. I don't need that in my life.

But who decides these badges ? That’s what I am curious about. Is there a vote ?

My theory is that it's something to do with viewing, contributing and interacting with collaborative articles and getting set amount of interaction on those. Few people I know with these badges run their own massive LinkedIn forums, actively post, actively get recommendations, have insane follower count. Something we can all strive for but something I think is pretty impossible to achieve as AE.

If it's like the "top contributor" badge on FB, it's worthless. Just means you spend a lot of time on the site interacting.

Yeah, it's collaborative article contributions and how many people engage with those. But those collaborative articles are crap written by AI so... and then the contributions are usually pretty blah as well.

So I found this while searching in the internet “ Members on the platform have the ability to earn one of two versions of Top Voices badging on their profile, either as part of the LinkedIn Top Voices or the Community Top Voices programs. The blue LinkedIn Top Voice badge is invitation only, featuring senior-level experts and leaders. The light gold Community Top Voice badge can be earned based on making noteworthy contributions to collaborative articles on LinkedIn, and is earned for a specific skill on your profile. Below, you can learn more about each type of badge and how it is awarded.”

Post bullshit there daily. One year later you will look at yourself in the mirror and only recognize a shell of who you once where, but on the surface you have become a new persona, someone that uploads pictures and videos to LinkedIn, someone that interacts with comments, that sells a course and thst has an opinion about everything. You look again in the mirror and slap yourself as hard as you can and as a tear runs through your cold face, you put on a fake smile and muster the strength to say out loud, my LinkedIn community is waiting.
