Can I cross post to other platforms??
Breaking down a common myth
Stop overcomplicating your content strategy
“But can I post the same content on LinkedIn and Twitter/X?”
Short answer: Yes. And you should.
A common myth stops most creators before they even start:
“I can’t post the same thing on different platforms… people will notice.”
Let’s be real: Nobody is following you that closely on all platforms.
And even if they are, they probably don’t care.
Here’s a typical situation for new creators:
You write a great Twitter/X thread… but leave LinkedIn silent.
You post a killer insight on Instagram… but don’t repurpose it elsewhere.
You assume every platform needs a new, original idea every day.
Result: You post less. Your audience doesn’t grow.
And the algorithm never sees enough volume to help you.
Here’s what to do instead:
✅ Start by writing content that works on LinkedIn first:
Clear
Valuable
Story-driven or insight-driven
Doesn’t rely on trends or memes to make sense
Then adapt it downstream to:
Twitter/X(shorter, more punchy, more opinionated)
Instagram (visual, carousel, or reel format)
Your newsletter (longer-form version, more in-depth)
This approach forces clarity—and multiplies your output without more work.
You don’t need more ideas. You need more distribution.
For most creators, this approach works well:
Start with content that’s native to LinkedIn. Then repurpose everywhere else.
That’s how you build brand, authority, and momentum.
Keep building!
Best,
