"The exact WRONG way to engage your prospects on LinkedIn...
...and what you SHOULD do instead."
[SHORT THREAD]
MISTAKE #1 - Targeting
I've tweeted about this non-stop...
The FIRST thing you need to get right is your targeting
Pitching a LinkedIn outreach service to someone who offers LinkedIn outreach services
...only shows you have NO CLUE what you're doing at all.

MISTAKE #2 - LinkedIn profile headline
This headline is just terrible...
"Generating clients; growing your business; sharpening your toolbox."
a 0/10 score...
...and this person is a LinkedIn expert?

MISTAKE #3 - The First Line
"Hey James! Interesting summary..."
I'll give 1/10 only because it has my name.
'Interesting summary' tells me he hasn't read it as its a meaninglessly vague phrase.
Btw, the word 'interesting' should be BANNED from all copywriting you ever do.
4
MISTAKE #4 - The entire rest of the message
Again, 1/10 only
It's TERRIBLE from start to finish
>> A generic offer
>> No niche specialism
>> CTA 1 is terrible & CTA 2 is worse
"Drop it like it's hot"
If your prospects KNOW & LIKE Snoop Dogg then *maybe*
But if NOT... ?
THE GOOD NEWS
Instead of doing GARBAGE outreach like this, if you just:
1) Select relevant prospects 2) Lead with value (e.g. great case study, offer or unique mechanism that gets results) 3) Make it easy to take the next step
You'll be ahead of 99% of people on LinkedIn...

HOW DOES IMAGE PERSONALIZATION WORK?
First, use a real picture
It can be of you standing in front of a board
or use any object eg stock image of a billboard
Layer text and other images on top of that pic
Use customisation merge fields for personalization
That's it

WHY DOES IT WORK?
>> Human psychology is hard-wired to trust someone when we look them directly in the 𝗲𝘆𝗲𝘀
>> Its much harder to be offended & hit spam or disconnect
>> Its much easier to give consideration to your offer, as trust at a subconscious level is higher
