I posted a few to instagram, but most of the folks that follow me on Instagram are family.

I am getting 5-12 views per post so it is super low right now. I think it suffers in that its only on the mobile view and most people browse LinkedIn with a desktop. I think if they enable it on desktop or get better mobile traffic it will pick up.

One thing that I have noticed is that its a very focused audience of people within my network, so even though the numbers are super low they are potentially a bit more meaningful.

We are hiring at work right now and one benefit I have noticed this time around is that we have had several folks reach out and say I would love to come work with you because it looks like you get to work with cool tech and I would like the opportunity to learn from you..... Those kind of comments may be a bit more of an ego boost than one needs 😜.

I did repost a few to my feed, this one for instance got 1K 👀. I posted a few to twitter and got a few hundred 👀 and a little engagement.

Oh that's cool! Love the side effect of people finding you as a person interested in the job! That's actually a first time hearing that.

As for Instagram, yeah not the best audience, was just thinking since the content is already done :D

Keep up the good work, long term investments
