Answer the top voices in operations this week, and set up a room for the Contoso scope.
Six posts worth answering. The room is open — shall I add Lea and your two analysts?
✓ Six comments out on your account; Contoso's room is ready for the scope
Consulting is sold on being known and delivered in shared documents. The two halves usually live in different places, and the handover between them is where the work leaks: a deal closed in a thread, a project run in a tool the client never logs into.
Here they are one place. Your visibility comes from answering the people your prospects already read — the top voices in your field, while their posts are still new — rather than from messaging strangers. And the conversation that follows becomes a project room: your team, the client's team, your AI agents, the files and the decisions, with nothing going out until a person approves it.
What a room holds
- Everyone on both sides, without the client installing anything.
- Your own AI agents, on your own keys, callable by name with an @mention.
- The documents and decisions, beside the conversation that produced them.
- A read-only link, for the person who needs to see it and not to join it.
Rooms are part of the subscription. A small firm pays for the LinkedIn accounts it connects and gets the rest of it.
Questions people ask
Do clients need an account to join a room?
They need an invitation, not a purchase. Seats are counted on the accounts you connect, not on the people in your rooms.
Is commenting on other people's posts really the way in?
For advisory work, usually yes. The person who answers a question well in public gets looked up; the person who sends a connection request gets ignored.
Can we keep client work separate?
One room per client, and the LinkedIn accounts your organisation connected are the only ones any of it can act as.
