Start posting consistently (3x/week minimum)

Establishing a genuine, sustained minimum of three posts weekly reflects a real, practical baseline cadence that platform behavior and general best practice both suggest is necessary for building meaningful algorithmic momentum and audience habit — posting cadence below this threshold rarely produces the kind of consistent visibility this platform rewards.

The sustainability of this specific cadence deserves genuine, honest evaluation before committing — three posts weekly represents a real, meaningful commitment requiring genuine content-creation capacity, and being realistic about your actual sustained capacity to maintain this cadence, rather than beginning ambitiously and inevitably lapsing, produces better long-term results than an unsustainable initial pace.

Planning content in advance, where genuinely feasible, reduces the real risk of missing this cadence under normal time pressure and competing priorities — some genuine advance planning, even modest, meaningfully improves the odds of sustaining this consistency compared to relying entirely on in-the-moment content creation each time a posting day arrives.

This established cadence, sustained genuinely over time rather than achieved briefly and then abandoned, provides the actual foundation that subsequent, more advanced LinkedIn strategy work throughout this broader plan builds upon — genuine baseline consistency is what makes more sophisticated tactics discussed in later missions meaningfully effective, since they depend on an already-active, engaged presence to build from.
