This is one of my best LinkedIn writing tips. (Especially if your posts are scaring off your readers) When we describe things, we often add adverbs to paint a picture. But this can make our writing weak. So instead of: ↳ He slowly walked towards the stage. ↳ She softly whispered, "Good morning." ↳ I presented my ideas confidently to the board. Try: ↳ He approached the stage. ↳ She whispered, "Good morning." ↳ I presented my ideas to the board. See the difference? The verbs themself show the emotions and actions. LinkedIn is all about clear communication. Ditch the adverbs and let your verbs do the talking! Your writing will be punchier, clearer, and way more engaging. P.S. Are you guilty of using too many adverbs?
📌Reminder: Discipline is remembering what you want.
In the start I used to write long posts. But now it's improved. Balqees Memon
I would say adverbs works more when you are writing fictions. On LinkedIn, go straight to the point. Verbs do so much already. You can use those adverbs when you are writing on Wattpad or Medium, maybe. Balqees Memon
Keep it short and simple to make it more interesting and readable. I have done this mistake many times unintentionally 😅 Powerful tip Balqees Memon
Whenever I try to write less, I struggle to explain things briefly .. My posts end up being too long! I need to work on this 😅 Balqees Memon
Perhaps!! I don't know 🤷🏻♂️ I try to keep it fun But maybe readers are not that involved I want to know your opinion
Down with the adverbs! Bring on the verbs. I have noticed the difference in my own writing for sure. When I edit I find myself removing adverbs quite often. Thanks for the advice.
