Should I become a Linkedin Influencer? Rate my first post.

Hey all, Thinking of becoming a LI influencer and wondering if this first post is good?


Today, My kid took a huge shit in their diaper.


At first I was grossed out. Even puked a little.


Normally I make my wife change the kids but today I wanted to be a servant leader.


As I was changing my child (I don't use their names to them because weak people answer to their names) I noticed that I never felt a fresh dookie


I knew this was a moment that I could share with my team to try new things and attempt to break down barriers no matter how weird they are lol


In sales we go through a lot of shit and I knew that I would be able to handle this better than anyone I know or have learned from. This challenge was built for me and pre-destined from the sales gods - shoutout Cardone!


After I cleaned child 2 I had the diaper laid out and the kid ran off or something - I'm not sure - I'm not there to stay on top of them just show them how leaders behave.


I reached out and touched the steaming pile of shit and realized this is how leaders lead. Through the shit and knowing what it feels like first.


Afterwards I washed my hands and pre-wrote PIPs for people on my team who take time off for funerals - if you're tied to the past you'll never drive your future


#leadersleadfirst


How did I do? Do I hit publish?

Funny shit! - I would post this to all socials. Produce a movie. Shorten it for ticktok, then replay the full length version in an endless loop webinar for demand gen. I'll like and share the whole thing. ✊✊✊ LFG

Thank you for liking and sharing preemptively. It'll help you get on my mailing list for early access to my $1k per month training sessions where I teach you how to be alpha and dominate sales through a technique I call "screaming jiu jitsu".

I will. They deserve it for caring about grandma. Get over it, Larry. She passed. Clearly not sigma enough to beat old age. Pathetic tbh. PIP is completely deserved.

Sounds like every other li post. I think you should do it post things like that making fun of li influencers and their posts

Oh man, I got all fired up when I saw your post title but this shit is fucking hilarious. I've been elbow deep in diapers lately so it hit home even harder.

LOVE IT

That makes two of us. Have you thought about touching the dookie to finally be good at sales? I clearly laid out how to do that perfectly. Feel free to Venmo me $100 a day for text alerts on when I’m available to text.

I might have to adjust my process - without iteration there is only death.

Unfortunately I'm in Canada, eh, so we don't have Venmo.

You can “loonmo” me. I assume that’s something Canadians have? I’ll be here all week.

We do, but it's only a loonie at a time. So I'll have to do it 100 times

Doing something 100 times is the first step to doing something 1000 times.

Very funny - I def think incorporating some jokes towards other LI influencers might be funny too. Great first one though, let it fly!

If you Venmo me $1000 now I’ll know you are committed but you also have to do push ups in an office so I know you’re extra dedicated.
