Now, with over 45,000 followers and consistent leads flowing into my business, I've learned what actually works.

As any sixth grade boy can tell you, Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson isn't exactly a subtle guy. In just a few short years, he's gone from an unknown streamer to YouTube's first ever billionaire, leveraging the promise of life-changing wealth to entice people into becoming test subjects for his Machiavellian productions. It's a winning - if highly controversial - formula. Donaldson's latest stunt, however, managed to rattle even his most prepubescent fans.

Of all the consulting requests I receive, helping executives (or their teams) strengthen their LinkedIn presence is the most common - and for good reason.

We live in the Influencer Age, where people project themselves as relevant figures to be admired and emulated. We see most of them on Instagram or TikTok, either flaunting their luxurious lifestyle, showing random moments of their day, or sharing something inspirational for their audiences to take in. Recently, LinkedIn has been another platform where supposed thought leaders share insights with fellow professionals.

"We have seen this in recent studies. The younger social media users are looking at older people as authorities on things that they like," Xie said. A 40-something finding success is Dallas influencer Chris Kahle. "It was kind of weird how it happened," Kahle said. "It wasn't even something I was thinking about.
