This is What Happened When I Took Screenshots of the 10 Social Media Profiles

In this episode of The Daily Hint with Jens Heitland, I dive into a strategy I use regularly to help clients connect more effectively with decision-makers on LinkedIn. By taking screenshots of 10 social media profiles of key figures in a target company, patterns start to emerge. These patterns may include how they present themselves, how they communicate their professional identity, and even subtleties in their appearance.

What’s the significance of these patterns? It’s all about psychology. When you mirror aspects of how these decision-makers present themselves, you increase the likelihood of connecting with them more quickly and effectively. This strategy taps into the concept of familiarity and rapport-building through subtle visual and communicative cues.

The process is simple, but the impact is profound. I break down step-by-step how you can apply this technique, whether you’re looking to land a new role or turn potential clients into long-term partners. Tune in to discover how a few screenshots can change the way you approach LinkedIn and transform your professional networking results.

Transcript:

This is what happened when I took screenshots of the 10 people I wanted to connect to. I do this with my clients as well. Here is how it works. we go on LinkedIn and we look into the companies we want to work in or we look into the companies we want to connect to in a way that they're going to be clients of ours.

What we look at is the 10 decision makers of that company, and we take screenshots of their LinkedIn profile. And then we put all of these screenshots next to each other, and then you see a pattern.

How they dress, how they name themselves, and how they're communicating their professional life on LinkedIn. And if you want to be connected to them, one of the psychology things is mirror them. If you look and feel the same, you have the possibility to connect to them faster.

Very simple, but super effective.
