​How would you leverage 11,000 LinkedIn connections?

Hi everyone,

Over the past 5 years I’ve built up a LinkedIn network of around 11,000 people. Most of them are based in Denmark, and it’s a very mixed group, people from different industries, professions, and age groups. Some added me, and many I reached out to.

Now, I’m sitting here wondering: what’s the smartest way to actually make use of this network?

I’m not really interested in selling courses, guides, or doing something “guru-like.” What I’d love is to find ways to create value, spark opportunities, or maybe even build something bigger with this base.

For those of you who have large professional networks, how do you take advantage of them in a meaningful (and not spammy) way?

Any creative ideas or personal stories would be super helpful.

Thanks in advance!
