Overwhelmingly amazing as usual and very positive and for an old man of 63 with ME/CFS low energy and brain fog it’s somewhat daunting. I have only written one or two posts on LinkedIn but have reposted a lot of authoritative posts from academics in my area of interest. I am wondering how I can apply this to LinkedIn but maybe I need to get writing more on it first. I’m campaigning for a global PFAs ( The Forever Chemicals ) action plan and a global drinking water standard. Our biology doesn’t change when we cross borders and neither should our water quality. I have spent the last year posting on FB with the help of Chat GPT and Perplexity and NotebookLM. I’ve spent £200 on promoting posts but have received over 920,000 views. I would love to be able to use this system on FB. If it would be possible can you see if we can pull all of our Facebook posts to re purpose those ? I will check out that. Happy Father’s Day to everyone. Hope you had a good Dad in your life and are trying to be one if you have kids. Thank you Ruben. 😊🙏
Happy Father's Day, Paul. Your £200 for 920,000 views on the PFAS campaign means you've already done the hard part: building reach the spreadsheet trick can only imitate. The post's method works off any public posting history, so Facebook posts are pullable the same way LinkedIn ones are. "Our biology doesn't change when we cross borders and neither should our water quality" is the line I'd feed the skill first. It already sounds like you.
What if you're just starting to post on LinkedIn and you only have 3 up so far? Do I scrape someone else's profile or is there a way to come up with my own content for it to scrape?
Bro, the article is really insightful. Should beginners also follow this strategy for their LinkedIn to grow their account? Please answer. And the next article should be on image generation. How you make images with the help of AI for your newsletter, LinkedIn, and Facebook. We need your image generation Blueprint.
Just want to say this is an insanely useful post man. I’m going to be extremely selfish, but I find LinkedIn posts about growth, efficiency, infographics, or anything similar to be the most valuable by far.
I signed up for your paid newsletter after your 10,000-follower post last year. Since then, I’ve ruthlessly implemented almost everything you’ve shared about creating content on LinkedIn, and my brand and business have grown pretty substantially since then.
Apologies for the humble brag but just wanted to say that your articles about LinkedIn are always 10/10 IMO. Keep em coming!
the LinkedIn content is maybe my favorite to write. as i have been doing this for years now, and i still learn something new every now and then. implementing what i wrote is the best compliment i could get. and hey, don't apologize for the humble brag. i don't mind reading about results :)
The real unlock here isn't the automation. It's the diagnosis: most people don't actually know which of their posts worked or why, and they've been guessing for years. Training Claude on your own corpus forces the reckoning that should have happened manually a long time ago. The positive feedback loop you describe is only possible once someone stops publishing by intuition and starts publishing from pattern.
(okay another skill to add to my collection of skills, which all came from you!)
“Claude won't be better if it trains on bad content”
I love this honest reminder. With sooo much generic content these days, it’s not ideal to start sounding like everybody else now. Even with this great setup, you have to find your own schtick! Something to make you "the one” out of all the creators in your niche.
yeah the bad content thing is true. people want the system, the automation, the dopamine hit of multiple generations. but when Claude gives them back exactly what they fed it, it will be mid.
build the skills (or download mine) and use the system. but also spend just as much time figuring out what you'd write from your point of view.
Claude can work from your own history then! of what worked, what flopped, the angle your audience responded to the most. how long does each post take you?

I'm sure you can do the same with Facebook, Paul!

And thank you for the kindest message this morning :) I will call my dad soon, and I am (yet!!) a dad.

3 posts is too few. you need around 30+ for this to work.
in the meantime, scrape someone you admire in your niche. use their posts to build the skill, write in your own voice.
Ruben, I do exactly that. Scrape leading content creators posts' off LinkedIn, analyse and build a skill.

hey Muhammad, i have these two pieces i wrote about how you can grow your account organically. these would be more fitting if that's the goal:
1/ https://ruben.substack.com/p/1000000
2/ https://ruben.substack.com/p/from-49-to-10000-followers-in-17
and yes, my team and i are considering a guide about infographics/images soon :)
I'm waiting for infographic piece. I hope it'll come very soon. Thanks for reply
Thank you for making this post. Helps a lot in my business!
i'm glad this could help, Brian!! :)
This is quite interesting. I never thought you can use Claude to such extent.
sky is the limit with Claude. i use it every day, and i still find new things to test out!
Will it be enough with claude…can it really replace other tools..like make,n8n all those automation apps?

Hi Ruben, does this work for company/business pages as well?
i'm pretty sure you can. check this out: https://apify.com/scrapio/linkedin-company-page-scraper
Hi Ruben,
I get an error when I want to export my data.
It says: dataset doesn't have a schema specified.
Is there a way to fix this?
hey Joris, it could be a temporary glitch or a platform bug on Apify's end.
try to log out and log back in. if it still doesn’t work, its best to contact their support https://apify.com/contact
Will this work for Instagram?
Apify does support Instagram as well: https://apify.com/apify/instagram-scraper
Amaziiiiingg!
thanks, Vitória! wondering if you tried it yet? :)
of course!! and honestly? had amazing results 🚀
Hi Ruben, sorry to write here but never received your welcome email. What can I do to get your Claude library. Thanks!
hey Ad, sent you a dm!
The real unlock here isn't the automation. It's the diagnosis: most people don't actually know which of their posts worked or why, and they've been guessing for years. Training Claude on your own corpus forces the reckoning that should have happened manually a long time ago. The positive feedback loop you describe is only possible once someone stops publishing by intuition and starts publishing from pattern.
its hard to repeat what you can't see. i did this and still found stuff i had no idea about, and it barely costs me anything now.
(okay another skill to add to my collection of skills, which all came from you!)

I absolutely love all the nuggets you share! Your posts have helped me up my linkedin game. Thank you SO much!
you’re most welcome. glad to share this setup :)
it takes less time than scrolling LinkedIn for an hour (plus copy-pasting posts manually!)
This is amazing! Really interesting insights
thanks! i hope to know how goo it worked on you :)
Hi Ruben, this is great! Ive been manually posting nearly every day for LI visibility; what a lifesaver!
Claude can work from your own history then! of what worked, what flopped, the angle your audience responded to the most. how long does each post take you?
