Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts in the comments too what’s been the hardest part for you personally?

1- What should be a good DM opener to the attention of the founders (mainly USA, UK & Canadian founders)? 2- What's the method for a follow-up? How do we message, how not to sound salesy, or the next person thinking we are desperate, as in we are gonna pitch him 3- How to get on a simple networking call with the founders, what should be the dm for initiating the conversation, and how to have a valuable conversation in the networking call on Google Meet?

So many creators on this platform are going to underestimate what this means for us building on LinkedIn. This is farrrr beyond just a "creator feature." The Creator Marketplace should fix the entire discovery problem that we've been seeing for years. Now LinkedIn is pulling all of this into one place inside the Campaign Manager. Brands can: • Search for vetted creators by topic • Review audience and content fit • Reach out directly for partnerships • Extend campaigns with BrandLink Creators can: • Approve how sponsored content gets used • Choose how brands contact them • Feature the work they want seen • Put their profile in front of brands Creator marketing on LinkedIn is tied to TRUST. And creator marketing is also one of the largest forms of marketing for brands right now in 2026. Right now it’s in alpha, with creator discovery for select brands and creators in North America and English-only content. Keep a look out in the next few weeks if you get access early to the Marketplace.

Alrighty my friends, happy Tuesday. Just wanted to film a quick video to demonstrate how incredible LinkedIn is right now as a platform to build both your personal brand and business. If you go all-in for the next 6 months all the way until 2027, you can make this YOUR main thing. No need for a 9-5, freelancing on the side, or working for a company you don't like. Time to start your own thing. Lets go let's go! Alex Colhoun
