Guest: Daniel Alfon, LinkedIn Strategiest Host: Marcia Riner, CEO of Infinite Profit®, Business Growth Strategist

If LinkedIn feels noisy, overwhelming, or underperforming, the issue is rarely the algorithm or how often you post. It is almost always your connection strategy. In this episode, Marcia Riner sits down with Daniel Alfon to break down why trying to be both the most connected and the best connected leads to diluted networks, weak referrals, and wasted time, and what intentional LinkedIn connections actually look like.

• Why posting more does not fix LinkedIn performance

• The difference between most connected and best connected networks

• How poor connection strategy hurts referrals and ROI

• What kind of LinkedIn content works without selling or pitching

• Why profile views matter more than feed visibility

• How to move relationships off LinkedIn at the right time
