TRP 270: The Shifting Landscape of LinkedIn with Kait LeDonne


Listen Later

In this episode of The Rainmaking Podcast, Scott Love speaks with social media strategist and LinkedIn expert Kait LeDonne about the shifting landscape of LinkedIn. Kait traces how the platform has evolved—from being a digital résumé hub to today’s creator-driven space optimized for knowledge and advice. She explains why vulnerability posts surged during the pandemic, how LinkedIn adjusted its algorithm to emphasize value-driven content, and what professionals should focus on now: consistency, storytelling, and educational insights.

Kait also provides practical guidance for professional services providers who want to turn LinkedIn visibility into real business opportunities. She highlights the power of newsletters, personal branding, and using story as a bridge to credibility and trust. With actionable strategies—posting at least twice a week, engaging meaningfully with comments, and adding strategic connections daily—Kait shows how professionals can build influence, grow their networks, and convert visibility into revenue.
