The roast
Manuel claims to fix the conversation rather than the funnel, which is a relief because his 0.25% engagement rate suggests he’s not currently fixing either. It takes a special kind of ego to invite strangers to a 15-minute coffee break just to listen to you talk about your 5 continents.

Unfortunately, I lost everything and learned how to survive v

Most LinkedIn marketers celebrate noise. I watch for silent intent that leads to revenue. After 30+ years in B2B sales, I trust private signals more than public applause.
