Are you tired of just making noise on LinkedIn without seeing real B2B sales results? In this episode of Simple Wins, Barney O'Kelly breaks down the difference between mere amplification and genuine professional influence. You'll discover a simple, human-centric approach to relationship building that cuts through the corporate cynicism.

Barney argues that true influence isn't about manipulation or a sterile sales process—it's about initiating conversations based on shared beliefs and values. Stop thinking about leads and start focusing on authentic content and connection.

Here's what you'll learn in this impactful episode:

• Building Your Personal Brand: Learn to define who you are, what you do, and why it matters to create a powerful, magnetic personal brand.

• The Power of Interest: Discover why approaching conversations by showing genuine interest in the other person is more persuasive than pitching a product.

• Creating Authentic Content: Understand how to avoid "AI slop" and ensure your posts are human, flawed, and build real trust.

• Long-Term B2B Sales Strategy: Get Barney’s perspective on why investing time in proper, non-transactional relationships is a far more powerful business tool than a short-term sales funnel.
