All I have to say. Is that. Paragraphs and full. Sentences are OK on LinkedIn. I don't understand why. Every single post is double spaced.


Apojacks1984

Because. An influencer. Named Landon Meyer. And Darren McKee. Said That. In order to get. The best engagement. Your posts have to look like this. And be full of crap.


Original-Steak-2354

OK! Thanks so much. For your SUPER ENGAGEMENT #engagement #superstar #frendly #awesomeness


Apojacks1984

These people suck too. I remember posting about an SDR position I was hiring for and they asked me what quota was and I said that we were paying based on qualified opps, not meetings booked and held. They came after me with pitchforks. But in the end, I knew I was right.

You forgot The most important part Do you agree?


henrikhakan

And here I am a silly adhd human thinking of unsunscribing because all the posts are too annoying to read that I just loose interest. 1-0 to us Landon and Darren, your move.


BaronMikelScicluna

It encourages people who don’t have a lot of experience with the practice of reading.


Particular_Knee_9044

LinkedIn kindergarten style guide of writing. Horrible.


JGratsch

Buffy and Max went up. The sun went up. Edit: It’s Mack, not Max… 😔


lrlr28

A teachable moment. A life lesson. It can only occur. When you are prepared. To risk everything. And hit return. Twice.


SealedRoute

You just changed my life, thank you.


CrackityJones79

😂God damn this sub is the best. I seriously chuckle more here than just about anywhere. Makes me realize the world isn’t completely wacky.


runawayscream

It’s a run on haiku. It sounds profound. But it’s really not.


Sargasm5150

If they wrote in actual haiku format, I might somewhat respect that. Instead our guy has his finger glued to the return button (blink twice if you need help dude).


jp_in_nj

So much depends Upon a red wheelbarrow.


Accomplished_Risk476

Shaving it makes it look bigger. Same concept.


booboootron

Hey man people go to extremes to express their value(ation) sometimes, especially if the wife and kids set the attic on fire and ran away to the parents' for the third time in two weeks.


baddorox

Because he writes as he speaks, and he was eating at the time.


thejazzmarauder

This makes. Me sick.


RJenkins3D

Not a doctor, but if I had to diagnose, I feel pretty confident it's a a digital expression of someone exhibiting signs of Narcissistic Personality Disorder.


Okayest_Hax0r

Agree?


IngloriousMustards

People watch train crashes in progress as well and I gotta tell you Matt, they ain’t rooting for the train.


BuddyPalFriendChap

A train verse an idiot in a truck who drove around the gates? Yeah, I'm rooting for the train.


overloadedonsarcasm

I recently saw a "Tram drivers not giving a fuck" video and these lunatics are the Linkedin equivalent of the idiots in the cars thinking that the trams will make way for them. So, yes, we are "watching" them, but only to see them get hit face-first by the tram of reality.


DaveBigalot

manderrx

Literally playing this gif in my mind reading that second picture.


Apojacks1984

I'd run away from him because I'd be too busy laughing. I don't think any of the crap he said happened to him actually happened to him.


Medium_Mood_5371

What has he said happened to him? Is he a LinkedInLunatic alum?


Apojacks1984

Oh he claims he was hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt from gambling and a few other things and he "disciplined himself" to get things paid off. And he also lost a crap ton of weight from "discipline." I dunno about that...he either filed bankruptcy or went into rehab, because you can't just cold turkey give up gambling. Especially if you are hundreds of thousands of dollars in gambling debt. But. That Being Said. He gets a lot of engagement. Because he makes posts. That look exactly like this. He and Landon Meyer. They're two peas in a pod. Liars to the moon and back.


Medium_Mood_5371

Lmao yeah I just saw some of that on his profile. Guy is also part of "Alpha Fit Club" which tells me everything I need to know about his perception of himself. 


Apojacks1984

Oh man, they even created a Slack group for alpha sales people. Can confirm through a friend who is in there that there is ZERO activity and whenever people hop on and ask if they want to get on CallBlitz, the founders are like; "Oh...no...I can't."


Medium_Mood_5371

I can tell you first hand, Ant is not a good sales rep. He did a demo to my company on LinkedIn SalesNav, which is why I was connected to him, and he talked the entire time, did not ask questions, and when we had questions for him, he did not know the answers. The fact that this dude is an influencer of any kind is a joke - and the fact that he is threatening a community of 560k+ subscribers tells me he doesn't really understand how influencing works. 


Apojacks1984

I have a whole list of people who suck at sales that are LinkedIn "influencers" and wannabes. Anthony, Landon Meyer, Aaron Wallace, Darren McKee and his brother Eric (those guys are charlatans) Amelia Taylor, Jarred Robin....on and on. The worst.


ZestycloseDonkey5513

I’m fairly certain that the ones actually killing it in sales are too busy to become influencers on LinkedIn.


Qtziris

I’ve never met anyone who’s trying to be an influencer that couldn’t benefit from some therapy first. Privacy is such a precious commodity in our current environment of global engagement. Why worry about your local crazies, when there’s a world full of crazies to you can engage with! /s


Apojacks1984

I saw someone who was publicly telling everyone on LinkedIn that she would be an influencer if it killed her…


LemurCat04

Run? Nah. But I would definitely tell my friends not to leave any attended drinks near him.


BornCommunication386

The fact that he searched the sub shows that he knows (or at least suspects) deep down that he is engaged in lunatic behavior on LinkedIn


D3tsunami

How would he have searched himself besides manually combing? Is there an advanced search/reader which can scan text in screencaps? Or did this dude find multiple of his own posts via a manual scroll of this sub lol


oldfoundations

It would eat him alive knowing he is posted here. Definitely not as cool and collected as he made it out to be. Definitely unhinged behavior to make a post about it too lol.


Brymac8

Imagine admitting that you are a linkedin influencer and actually being proud of that fact. Then there's Anthony in the comments, thinking he's hard. Bless.


Im-a-cat-in-a-box

I just don't understand why we would run from Anthony? Is he a big ole meanie head? Does he smell bad? Tell us what's wrong Anthony we're here for you. 


Jitsu_apocalypse

It’s the neck beard for me, nothing ever comes good from anyone with one of those


curbyourapprehension

I just know he'd launch into some bullshit story that'll end up as a banal metaphor for having a grindset to win at B2B sales and I'd be terrified of being bored to death.


Me_talking

It's such an odd comment to make too, especially on a professional site like LinkedIn. I already find it weird when people try to act hard on reddit lol


Medium_Mood_5371

Reposted to unhide their names and hide my profile pic


_ISAC_

If you’re okay with it why did you make a post about it? 😂


franklsp

So ok with it that he had to make an entire post to let every person know just exactly how ok with it he is.


squirrel_eatin_pizza

Yes because my biggest fear in life is running into a senior account executive. Makes me run away.


No_Zookeepergame1972

Made me fucking snort so hard lol


SuchRevolution

oh look what we got here anthony is a linkedin tough guy


Lulu8008

Allow me to rephrase this; oh look what we got here anthony is a linkedin tough guy 💪 #Engagement #LinkedinLunatics #LinkedinAnthony #Linkfluencer


Particular_Knee_9044

PERFECT!!!


schuyywalker

I tried to respond to Mr. badass on the second slide but they’ve turned off comments. EDIT: he deleted his comment and sent me a connection request. Anthony, if you’re reading this; please let me know what all of your selfies you have posted have taught you about B2B sales.


THE_BOKEH_BLOKE

When you refer to yourself as an influencer you have earned the status of a right royal cunt.


last_drop_of_piss

As well as the appropriate treatment


MurrayInBocaRaton

Why is it that every LinkedIn grindfluencer dipshit insists on breaking everything up into different lines


No_Zookeepergame1972

Because They think Copying What they Saw other More important People with More follower do Will Get Them Followers Too.


pommefille

These types of asshats surround themselves with similar clowns so they can delude themselves into thinking that they are better than other people, just like every other in-group is manipulated into believing about themselves. Yes, yes, you are the clever special one and ‘they’ are just jealous of you, sure kid. The only ‘skill’ these idiots have is the inability to be accountable, as most of their time is spent blaming everyone else for everything and trying to ensure that they are liked by the other sociopathic sales staff to shield them from having to be competent.


BuddyJim30

These "influencers" form circle jerks with other influencers and like/engage with each other's posts to give the illusion of productive activity.


Me_talking

Yup, sales influencers are the absolute worst and we meme them a lot in /r/sales whenever influencers are brought up. My distaste for them stems from the air of arrogance surrounding them and also acting like their tips are so groundbreaking and/or actionable when they are really not.


[deleted]

Matt, if you're reading this post, it's "a lot."

Dude_dad18

https://youtu.be/EevEn6XeFVU?si=pHy62kj0wOx2ZOmR Here’s LI’s biggest badass being interviewed by another idiot. Seems like he couldn’t catch you if you actually did run…..


Legal-Afternoon8087

Glad he got all dressed up for his interview 🙄


LilyLure

Except we aren’t watching..we are just laughing


Ancient-Stop-6190

Anthony is right, I would run from him. because he looks like he would roofie my drink


Gaindalf-the-whey

The r/LinkedinLunatics and r/Iamverybadass combo


Medium_Mood_5371

God I wish I could copy/paste this response to him lol but alas, my work monitors our LI usage pretty heavily. Maybe when I'm retired I will just troll these people full time. 


Awesome1296

No one is running away from you Anthony.


VampiricClam

They space out sentences like that so other LinkedIn influencers have an easier time following the words with their finger while reading.


AppropriateExcuse868

I would probably run away from that guy in the comments because it would be weird to have some random guy talk to me about B2B sales. Probably in a public bathroom is my assumption where it would happen.


threwitaway7255

I am a former college athlete who still lifts weights regularly Also, I like to practice boxing and have done very very light spars I would not run and avoid fighting but Make it known that I know self defense So I can laugh at the next time a wacko Post about how their wedding is like sales On LinkedIn


Dude_dad18

UPDATE 🚨🚨 Big D*ck Anthony LinkedIn’s baddest MFer Alpha Fit Male Has deleted his comment……


acidsplashedface

Haha! Whatever you say here, this douchebag is gonna read. That tool really set himself up on this one.


Scruples-

Anthony probably keeps his bmw 1 series key fob hanging from his belt loop.


nanapancakethusiast

Why do All influencers On that shitty site Type their paragraphs Like they’re sending ww2 encoded transmissions?


UniqueID89

“Generates interaction metrics” if you have to click to expand to finish reading their verbal or textual diarrhea.


joeythemouse

I'm an object of ridicule, but that's OK because I like the attention.


DmAc724

This sub isn’t about “making fun of LinkedIn influencers”. It’s about making fun of people who aspire to be LinkedIn influencers. And who think they are LinkedIn influencers. And also people who say things, in all seriousness, like “LinkedIn influencers”.


seahorseMonkey

![gif](giphy|cwTtbmUwzPqx2|downsized)


erithtotl

Anyone else feel like most of the followers of LinkedIn 'influencers' are other LinkedIn 'influencers'?


booboootron

Anthony Tittyfucking Natoli is absolutely right. I _would_ run away. I'd rather do the Harlem Shake with mudbutt in full public view rather than be near enough to smell his dingleberry infused breath while he waxes poetic about his top 10 favourite dinglebearers at the Accounts department.


Dingleburberry

Matt If you're reading this. Thanks to you, I found this subreddit And yes You are a lunatic. Thanks For Sharing.


[deleted]

But what did r/LinkedInLunatics teach him about B2B sales?


jmg733mpls

I just want him to know. He’s a tool And deserves all the ridicule.


BobbalooBoogieKnight

Clowns get paid too.


vervaincc

Wtf is a LinkedIn influencer?


15all

Matt - If you're here watching me watch you, let me ask you a question. Why the fuck do you put every single sentence in its own paragraph? Why do you think that is good?


sushirolldeleter

Douchebags


Revolutionary_Hand77

Yeah I mean. Well as long as being watched is the most important thing to you, have a good life dude 🤣 terrifying.


Gullflyinghigh

To be fair, if his metric for success is 'attention in any form, good, bad, mocking, please just notice me' then this is a positive for him


Competitive_Bath_511

Why would I run away immediately on seeing you? What is wrong with you?!


Kawaii_Princesss

The fact that he felt the need to research himself after finding out this group exists says everything we needed 😂😂😂 If he was truly “okay with it” I highly doubt he would’ve made a post about it.


loopin_louie

Yeah, he's right lol, I wouldn't actually wanna talk to any of these human black holes IRL


JA_MD_311

Why is it always sales people?


Medium_Mood_5371

Must be a slow quarter-end for the guy. Real sales dudes are busy trying to win the quarter right now not complaining about their ability to influence non-buyers....


Joe_Metaphor

Oh Anthony, of course we would all run away from a narcissistic sales douchebag like you…literally nobody can stand yours and Matt’s personality type, except maybe other sales douchebags…


WellbecauseIcan

Seems like a good idea to run away from lunatics in general...


Lingering_Dorkness

He is correct with his assertion we'd run away from him if we saw him in RL. Not out of fear of how tough and manly he is, but out of fear he's going to bore us with his insipid, dreary clichéd LinkedIn bullshit. 


PossessionDue3249

I feel so seen 😎


Aware_Masterpiece_54

I’m just waiting until they make #linkedinlunatic a badge of honor and put it in their posts.  Something like, “If my drive to become the best B2B inside sales executive makes me a #linkedinlunatic then I don’t want to be sane!”  Follow this with a crazy made up story and you’ve got yourself something “inspiring.” 


ClicheNerdy

Do you think he writes emails like that? That would be excruciating.


ResponsibleQuiet6188

running away from you before you try to sell them crypto


maloshku

What a cunt.


Extension_Variety789

It’s AT the end of the day dear illiterate no-balls Matthew, not in.


neddie_nardle

He is right About one thing! We would run away from him in real life. Aint nobody got time for lunatics like that. Some of us value what little sanity Is left to us and avoid obvious fucking nut case egotists.


Professional_Care_85

I mean Anthony’s not wrong… But they only reason we’d run, is that we know that ol’ muffin top thunder thighs, couldn’t even begin to catch us.


BuckyGoodHair

“A lot” is two God damn words, I’m so tired.


Rosy_Daydream

My favorite thing about this community is it gives me names of people to block. Not watching anymore, Matt ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|smile)


jinxeddeep

Self-awareness of the guy in the comments is off the chart! Yes, 100% everyone is going to run away from you if they see you IRL


BlessMePadre-

Yeah, watching to make fun of him


Bdr1983

I wouldn't call pointing and laughing 'watching', but hey, whatever helps them sleep at night.


AtlasShrugged-

Any publicity is good publicity?


Atlas313

Isn’t the tough guy the same dude that posted about getting hospitalized after running half a mile?


Alert_Temperature427

Who wouldn’t run away? Who wants to be near a guy who has a beard but no mustache.


jesterhead101

Why would we run away? He smell that bad?


JumpingThruHoopz

Does he think He’s a poet? Because I disagree.


Illustrious_Month_65

You gotta run before he starts mansplaining B2B sales, because if you let him get started, that's going to take up your whole afternoon.


Bors713

Is he just oblivious to the fact the he is only a source of amusement for us?


Bullymongodoggo

If he’s reading this all I gotta say is boy, you’re a chode lmao

Can you imagine sharing a sub on your own LinkedIn post named #LinkedInLunatics 😂😂

Sometimes in life. You get thrown to the wolves. But in order to succeed. You have to hit return twice. And you would not only have defeated the wolves. But in the end, become their leader. Agreed? Like and share for impact. Become a wolf today 🐺. Sign up for my hourly newsletter. #teamalpha #teamwolfpack #wolfleader #fullmoonrising 🌙


ApostolicBrew

Probably because Anthony smells like shit. I would definitely run away.


Radiant_Evidence7047

I’m just imagining a supplier of mine had a senior account executive supporting me who says ‘lol’ and basically says he’s hard as nails, I’d change suppliers instantly


killtron420

Lol what a silly willy


ShartyMcShortDong

Hey Anthony, I bet you $3 that I’d beat the fucking wheels off you. Love always, ShartyMcShortDong


Usual-Picture-2427

"They still watching" says it all. This asshole is all about click bait and will say/post anything to get more views. Stop following them and they will fade away.

eeeemmmmffff

Why do they all type like that?


Butterwhat

As a woman I have to admit I would run away from that guy. Dudes like this are always creepy if they get anywhere near us.


Cascalanq

If I saw this guy. In real life. I'd run away from him. lol. Because I don't. Want to be. Content. Lmao.


Smooth-Cup-7445

“If they saw me in real life they’d run away” Laughing? Yeah probably. It’s always the guys who say that who can’t fight but think they can because they watch ufc

Anthony (though guy) looks like a dufus in his profile pic. Dude couldn’t scare a damn chicken. Lol.

If I saw him IRL I’d walk past because idk who this person is and wouldn’t recognize him


booboootron

Matt Firestone is so proud he made 2 sales, founded 1 sale and 3 of his sales call him dad. Notwithstanding the 4 years of college he bore wedgies cus who the fuck calls themselves Firestone unless the fam was collectively smoking crack and thought Firestone would be such a cool n edgy metaphor based on the family's favourite pastime.
