THE BEST 10 MESSAGES TO A RECRUITER ON LINKEDIN AFTER APPLYING FOR A JOB – IDEAS & EXAMPLES
Before you send a follow up job application email to a recruiter on LinkedIn, let me tell you something you might find hard to admit:
LinkedIn is mugging you in broad daylight π« while you thank them for the privilege.
LinkedIn algorithm shows your “viral” content to roughly the same audience who’d notice if you screamed into your office Printer: Ryan from the marketing team who does not even know your name. π΅
You own nothing π€‘ on LinkedIn.
You’re renting followers from landlords who charge you extra just to talk to your audience.
It’s like building a mansion on rented land: expensive, temporary, and the landlord can bulldoze it whenever they update their “community guidelines”. π π₯
Meanwhile, LinkedIn execs are swimming in pools filled with your ad spend. πββοΈπ°
Your current situation:
β Zero follower data ownership πβ
β Organic reach = no-one watching! π΅οΈββοΈ
β Ad costs rising faster than your therapy bills ππ
β Followers “export” button? Pure fantasy π¦
The intervention your marketing needs:
β
Stop being LinkedInβs favourite ATM π§β
β
Own your audience π
β
Lower your customer acquisition costs π°
β
Build marketing systems that own and control π€β€οΈ
Throwing money at LinkedIn ads hoping for results is expensive self-harm with the worse ROI. π₯
Ready to break up with LinkedInβs abuse?
Book a strategy session and learn to build digital marketing that works for you, not against your bank account. π
Stop renting your success. Start owning it.
