Writing Posts That Don't Flop
No pressure, but here's the cheat code:
- Say something real - original insight > recycled LinkedIn wisdom. Cite your sources.
- Write it yourself. AI can help you think, but a copy-paste job will show.
- Keep it tight - approx 170 words, 2–3 paragraphs. Nobody's reading your essay.
- Skip the sales pitch - max 10% promo, no "link in bio" energy, no registration links.
- End with a question - not a "like/share/comment". Let the post earn it.
- Use these hashtags - #MyLinkedInEra and #BeUnstoppable along with the one for each prompt.
- Visuals should earn their spot - only add media that actually supports your point.
The Fine Print (but make it quick)
- Give real, accurate details when you register.
- Follow all designated LinkedIn pages before your activities count.
- LinkedIn + Unstop have the final say on eligibility and winners.
