Photoshop 2026 lets you switch Flux Context Pro or Nano Banana inside Generative Fill. Cleaner edges. Steadier light. Better textures. Exports down from 5 to 1:

Most B2B marketers throw content too soon. Profile → Network → THEN Content. I audit all 3 in one pass. DM for a checkup:

Meta’s 360Brew doesn’t just rank content, it evaluates it.

You’re now up against logic, not luck.

Organic reach is gone.
Viral wishes aren’t a plan.
LinkedIn ads aren’t costly.
The edge is team energy.
Cut busywork.
Tighten the score.
2 minutes of blunt truth—production or orchestration?

What B2B marketers need to do in 2025:

Two weeks later, the same post shows up again.

Welcome to #LinkedIn in 2025.

You engaged. The app remembers, then replays.

Users see loops.

Product teams:
Stop fixed 14-day resurfacing rules.
Add decay.
Lower resurface weight:

Michelangelo didn’t ask if it was personal. He made it clear. That’s Rick’s razor: clarity beats confusion:

No metaphors today. Just a day in the vineyard harvesting Uhudler grapes. They ferment now. We drink in spring. 🍷

@bsky.app - 100MB is a bit ridiculous in the age of 4k.

Personalization in sales means you didn’t kill the conversation with your opener. That’s it:

AI isn’t one tool—it’s a stack.
Gemini Pro for research. ChatGPT for structure. Chippy for glue. Gamma for slides.
Real-time, uncut workflow. Full deck here tomorrow.

Got accused of deepfaking a video. Nope — just Chippy throwing in random hyphens. Welcome to the creator life.

If your team can write an email, they can post. “Do it right” explains why they don’t:

You don’t need to hack ChatGPT. You need a reset. I use a yoyo. Three minutes. Then campaigns move again.

New study: even no-algo feeds fill with rage-bait. Fast. Maybe the problem isn’t tech. It’s us. Curate your LinkedIn feed. Or lose its value:

ChatGPT 5 can think better if you tell it to. Add deep reasoning commands or tweak Custom Instructions. It even counts fingers right:

She only posts when she drinks. That worked on Facebook. Not on LinkedIn. Told her: "Drink responsibly." #contentstrategy #linkedin

Your best ideas should live in your content—not in comment threads.

Most cold LinkedIn outreach fails. Why? Because it skips the work.

Pods, automation, AI comments — it’s all noise. Real wins take effort.

If likes are your currency, stay in the pod.
If you want clients, show up differently.
