Your daily LinkedIn post idea, by The Content Lab

Question: N/A

Below is a rough example of what a post could look like for this prompt. Feel free to edit it to reflect your own experience.

Post Template:

Hook:

Stupidity is an underrated growth hack.

Tease:

When you’re “stupid” enough to believe your cold email will get a response, you send it.

When you’re “stupid” enough to think your scrappy video will land a client, you post it.

When you’re “stupid” enough to launch before you’re ready, you start making money while others are still “preparing.”

Value:

Smart people, on the other hand, overcomplicate everything.

They wait to post until the brand guide is perfect. They spend three months researching an ICP they could have validated with ten DMs. They rewrite copy fourteen times instead of running it live and testing.

You have to be just stupid enough to act before you have all the answers, to believe you deserve the absolute best, and to focus only on the handful of actions that actually move revenue. But you also have to be smart enough to turn those quick wins into compounding results and to invest the profits where the returns are highest.

That combination: reckless execution paired with strategic scaling, has nothing to do with avoiding mistakes, and is entirely focused on making them faster than the “smart” people, and cashing in before they even realize you’ve started.
