What if the best way to generate leads on LinkedIn wasn't posting more content, but having better conversations?
In this episode, Adi Klevit interviews Jason Osborn about using LinkedIn to build genuine relationships and generate high-quality business opportunities. Jason explains why traditional content-focused marketing and aggressive sales messages often fail to create meaningful connections. Instead, he emphasizes understanding prospects, providing value, and starting conversations that naturally develop into business relationships.
Jason introduces his LinkedIn Reverse Podcast Method, which uses short podcast interviews as a structured networking strategy. He explains how businesses can identify ideal prospects, invite them to share their expertise, and establish relationships without immediately pitching their services. Adi and Jason also discuss how to keep interviews authentic and create a positive experience for guests.
The conversation highlights how a repeatable outreach and follow-up process can make relationship-driven marketing more consistent and scalable. Jason shares practical ways to simplify podcast production, manage conversations, and nurture connections over time. By focusing on genuine engagement rather than immediate transactions, businesses can develop a sustainable approach to lead generation.

Quotable Moments:
- “It's all about relationship.”
- “How can we start a conversation to be able to communicate with them so that it opens up a dialog as opposed to us just pitching them in the message?”
- “We're actually reaching out to our ideal prospects, our ideal partners, our ideal, whoever it is that we're wanting to speak to, we actually invite them on to a podcast to start the relationship.”
- “You don't have to have a high production mic or anything like that at all. It's all about the communication and the conversation with them.”
- “We're using it as a networking thing to be able to speak to people.”
- “You're just there to build the relationship."
Action Steps:
- Identify your ideal LinkedIn connections. Define the business owners, executives, professionals, or referral partners you want to build relationships with and develop a targeted outreach list.
- Replace sales pitches with value-driven invitations. Start conversations by offering something meaningful, such as an opportunity to share expertise on a podcast, rather than immediately promoting your services.
- Create a repeatable outreach process. Establish consistent steps for identifying prospects, sending personalized connection requests, scheduling conversations, and tracking relationship development.
- Use podcast interviews as networking opportunities. Consider hosting short interviews with potential clients or referral partners to learn about their businesses, highlight their expertise, and establish genuine connections.
- Keep interviews focused on the guest. Ask thoughtful questions, listen carefully, and avoid turning the conversation into a sales presentation.
- Develop a relationship-focused follow-up system. After each interview, share the episode, maintain communication, and explore opportunities for collaboration when there is mutual interest.
