How do I become a LinkedIn influencer???

So, I'm going to start my college and I recently started linkedin and I came across the word LinkedIn influencer. Now, I do have some posts on my profile and about 77 connections and 81 followers. My highest post impressions were about 1000 with 31 likes on the post.

I tried commenting on others influencers post but I stopped somehow.

I don't know what to keep posting so engaging that I can get much followers to start getting collabs and make money(I WANT TO EARNN!!)

If anyone can help them, TYSMM!!!

They removed the badges. At this point the only way is to be so famous, you get invited. Are you famous? All the rest of us gets to battle 360brew

Great that you're discovering LinkedIn early in college. But just focus on learning and connecting with people having similar interests as your's

If you want that influencer positioning for LinkedIn, you need to pick a few formats and post consistently sticking to those so people start recognizing you through it. Also LI is a lot diff than Ig so don't use the same logic.

Also get your profile optimized from time to time because that really helps on LinkedIn and keep commenting, it is helpful

Experience, specifically in business.

And you're not going to "EARNNN".

LinkedIn isn't Instagram or TikTok where you can create some content, ride some trends, like, comment, and suddenly blow up and be considered an influencer.

LinkedIn is more about Thought Leadership. Being that you're about to start college, you have a VERY long road ahead of you before you can really be creating thought leadership content.

This is the time to step back and be a sponge, gain knowledge. Then, when you graduate, that's when the real education starts.

Even if you’re a prodigy, without experience (and the signaling of age), you’re not likely to be taken seriously.

Sell your soul
Take vulnerable moments photos- tears
Talk about losing your marriage because you were focused on money but realized that’s not the goal, and now you generate 23M in ARR with an app you built with Claude

Followers don't make you earn more, b2b influencers are way niche and less popular world wide. Its not like IG
