Give Me 10 LinkedIn Post Ideas for My Industry

Here are ten post ideas that work in any industry, built to start conversations rather than collect likes. Swap the examples for your own reality and you're up and running. But read the last section, because that's where it's decided whether they deliver anything.

Ten ideas

Angles that start conversations

Swap the examples for your own reality and you're up and running.

1

The myth in your industryThe one most people still believe, and why it's wrong.

2

An expensive mistakeOne you see clients make again and again.

3

A client questionSomething a client recently asked, and your honest answer.

4

Something you were wrong aboutAnd what changed your mind.

5

A change in the industryAnd what it means for your client concretely.

6

A short caseFrom real life, without glossing over or making things up.

7

What everyone saysBut that you actually disagree with.

8

Behind the scenesHow you work — what the client rarely gets to see.

9

One thing the client can do todayTo solve a common problem.

10

Your honest opinionOn where the industry is heading in the coming years.

The best posts aren't the cleverest. They're the ones that make the right person think that's about me — and reply.

// Conversation before applause

Want a ready-made weekly plan instead of a list? See what to post this week. And if the ideas need a format, take the carousel.

What an idea list doesn't solve

Ten ideas aren't ten posts. A document of ideas changes nothing until something actually gets published.

And here's the uncomfortable part. The hard part is never coming up with what to write. The hard part is hitting publish, and then reaching out to those who engaged.

Knowing what you could post is free. It's your drive to actually do it, week after week, that builds something.

// The ideas are yours. So is the doing.
Takeaway

Pick three, publish, follow up

Take three of the ideas, swap the examples for your own reality and publish them this week. Then reach out to those who commented — that's where the list turns into business.

LinkedCoach helps you find angles that fit your specific business, and keep the rhythm that turns them into clients.

Frequently asked questions

Which LinkedIn posts work in my industry?

Ideas that start conversations rather than collect likes: the myth most people still believe, an expensive mistake you see clients make, a client question with your honest answer, something you were wrong about, an industry change and what it means concretely, a short case, something everyone says that you disagree with, behind the scenes, one thing the client can do today, and your honest opinion on where the industry is heading.

What makes a good post?

The best posts aren't the cleverest. They're the ones that make the right person think that's about me — and reply.

Is an idea list enough?

No. Ten ideas aren't ten posts — a document of ideas changes nothing until something actually gets published. The hard part is hitting publish and then reaching out to those who engaged.

How often should I post?

Keep a rhythm you can sustain — three sharp posts a week beats seven lukewarm ones. It's consistency, not volume, that builds something.

The ideas are yours. So is the doing.
