You Can’t Cash In Clout: Build Trust Instead

You can’t deposit LinkedIn likes into your bank account.

Everyone’s chasing views, likes, and comments.

But those metrics don’t build an authorpreneur business.

The one that does?

Trust.

Not the fake kind.

The kind that grows from real conversations, real help, and real consistency on LinkedIn.

It’s not flashy. It’s not fast.

But it’s the only thing that compounds.

Because credibility isn’t a viral moment—it’s a slow burn.

Want results?

Stop chasing validation.

Start building relationships.

Write gratitude notes.

Start genuine DMs.

Make trust your metric.
