from Brand Distinction with Nina Walder · host Nina Walder | Premium Brand and Business Strategist

I spent six years building an audience of 300K+ followers on Instagram. I’ve sold everything from $27 webinars to $10K offers through the app.Yet, last year, I shifted my primary focus to LinkedIn - where I have less than 2,500 connections.The result - I’m signing high-level clients faster and easier, even with a tiny audience.In this episode, I’m sharing my candid, strategic analysis of the two platforms and why the "Dior-level" client you want is probably waiting for you on LinkedIn.We cover:✦ Why I’m seeing sophisticated buyers leave Instagram and where they are going instead.✦ How to replace "performance" with "presence" and where you can sign $5K clients easier✦ The Intent Gap: Why 2,500 followers on LinkedIn are worth more than 100,000 on Instagram.✦ My strategy for visual experts: How to use your aesthetic eye to disrupt the corporate feed and more. ---About the host: Nina Walder is a Strategic Advisor to Premium Brands & Experts.
