It's embarrassing to say... but I postponed publishing my first social media post for 7 years 🥲

(if you’ve been overthinking posting online – or felt like “I’m good at my work, but I don’t know how to show it” – keep reading.)

So yeah... Seven. Frigging. Years.

Not because I had nothing to say.
Not because I wasn’t good at what I did.

But because I was afraid of:

• Being judged
• Sounding stupid
• “Not being ready yet”
• Posting the wrong thing
• Being visible before I felt confident

But eventually, I realized something:

Staying invisible was costing me more than being imperfect ever could.

Opportunities. Clients. Confidence. Momentum.

I knew I was meant for more than my 9-5 could offer me, so I started posting anyway – awkwardly, imperfectly, learning as I went.

Now, 2.5 years later, I have:

✔ Published 200+ posts on social media
✔ Gained 5,000+ followers across LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube
✔ Reached 1.16 Million views

...and today, I help experts and service-based specialists do what I struggled with for years:

👉 Turn their knowledge into a clear, visible, trusted online presence
👉 Speak confidently on camera (even if they hate filming)
👉 Write content that sounds like them, not AI-generated fluff
👉 Create posts, carousels & videos that build trust, not just likes

No influencer tactics.
No fake engagement pods.
No “let's-post-for-30-days-and-then-never-again" challenges.

So if you're interested in my approach, keep reading.

WHO I'M WORKING WITH

I work with people who are:

• Great at what they do 
• Early in sharing their expertise publicly
• Thinking about starting a side hustle / growing their own service

Like entrepreneurs, health professionals, consultants, photographers, developers, creatives, educators, marketers, beauty & wellness specialists, personal trainers, accountants – you name it.

So far, I’ve helped 370+ professionals and teams get seen, trusted, and taken seriously online – through live cohorts, 1:1 consulting, and corporate LinkedIn workshops.

HOW YOU CAN WORK WITH ME

👉 The "Just Post It!" Academy
↳ A 5-week, hands-on LIVE online course where you publish real content, build confidence on camera, and finally show up online – consistently. (link in Featured section)
👉 LinkedIn & visibility workshops for teams (online or in-person)
👉 1:1 consulting (limited availability)

So... if this resonated, send me a message and tell me:

• what you do
• where you feel stuck
• what you want people to know you for

I’ll point you in the right direction.

P.S. When in doubt, just post it ;)

What's your favorite? And what would you add to this list? 😄

And hey – if this post gets enough traction, maybe LinkedIn will actually add a few new reactions!

So, let them know by using your current (or new) favorite reaction 🙌

Proposal to update the LinkedIn reactions bar

The biggest fear people have with posting on social media (LinkedIn included) isn’t:

- Being judged
- Lack of ideas
- Lack of time

It’s actually: “What if I put in all this time and effort… and it doesn’t work out?”

I know it because that fear kept me stuck for years.

The good news is that there *is* a way to think about this that makes showing up easier – but it’s not what most people expect.

I explain it in the video 👇

And after watching, let me know if you’ve figured it out for yourself or not!

If you've struggled with being consistent on LinkedIn, it's not because:

- You lack time
- You lack skills
- You lack post ideas
- You lack knowledge

It's because you haven't figured out a strong enough "why" and "minimal ROI" for yourself.

But how to find your minimal ROI and "why"?

Watch this video to get a quick motivation boost and learn how to stay consistent on social media ✊🏼

Watch this if you're afraid to post on LinkedIn, Instagram, or any other social media platform...

But want to get started in 2026.

I hope this mindset shift gives you the necessary nudge to get going ;)

Have a successful New Year!

P.S. And if you need any help with becoming more visible on social media and more confident on camera this year, reach out!

Dear LinkedIn user,

Before you do anything on LinkedIn – posting, commenting, applying for jobs, sending DMs – please make sure your profile is actually doing its job.

And no, that doesn’t mean “having something filled in every section.”

It means:

1️⃣ You’re clear on WHY you’re on LinkedIn
(new job, more clients, visibility, opportunities)
2️⃣ You know WHO your profile is meant to speak to
3️⃣ You’ve taken 1–2 focused hours to turn your profile into a digital business card, not an outdated online CV

Most people never take more than 15 minutes to polish their profile... and then they wonder why LinkedIn “doesn’t work.”

If you need help getting started, I put together a quick masterclass / PDF below to give you clarity on what actually works and what doesn’t.

And check the pinned comment 📌 for a small gift :)

Save this post and audit your profile later.

Sincerely,
Kristo

LinkedIn Profile Do's and Don'ts by Kristo Olli

Message to my younger self 👆🏼👇🏼

I postponed publishing my first LinkedIn post for 7 years because of doubts/fears/excuses like:

- what others think of me
- I'm too young to even share my ideas
- I don't have the necessary gear to film videos
- there are far more more experienced people than me
- etc, etc, etc...

Fast-forward today, I've published over 250 posts across social media, and I help others do the same.

The only regret tho? Not starting sooner.

I hope this message finds you at the right time and gives you the necessary nudge to get going.

Just post it!!
