It’s not a place for sales people to sell via cold call DMs or pitch slaps or spammy messages. It is a place to get to know one another. It’s a networking event with 830 Million other people. This post was inspired by another conversation that I engaged here. We don’t...

Good idea especially if you get a lot of DMs here and you’re planning on being gone for a while. Know what? You can only use them if you have LinkedIn Premium. Which I do not. I’ve had LinkedIn Premium a couple times over the past four years (including a trial) but I...

Here’s someone whose photos I still treasure. Someone who hopped around from one spot to another snapping away and catching a really good mix of candids and posed shots. I thought about her fondly this weekend, 18 years after my husband and I said “I do”, because...

For me, there are a few comparisons… Your LinkedIn profile is your online billboard. Your LinkedIn profile is a part of your brand (it’s not 100% of your brand because the triangle is not JUST your profile here). Your LinkedIn profile is the first place...

Engagement for the sake of engagement doesn’t win. It doesn’t pay off either. When I comment on someone’s post, I really want to do it. Commenting isn’t about homework. It isn’t about doing it because you have to. Comment because you want to. We are all here to have...

Have you seen the Allstate commercial of the guy dancing and saying he’s the latest hashtag challenge? “This is going to get tens and tens of views”. First time I saw that one I laughed out loud. I still smile every time I see it. Many people on social media would say...

After all, just 3% of the 830 Million people who are on LinkedIn are actually posting content. That being said, bringing clients inbound can be done. Let’s talk about what content has brought clients to me. Check-out my monthly LinkedIn Newsletter – The...

If your answer is yes, please don’t. Or at least promise me you’ll think twice about it. Listen, I really appreciate EVERYONE who engages with my content. That being said, I’d rather have people comment (I’ll use reacting as an after thought because commenting is so...

You know…the person who sold via DM. The person who connects with you right away then sends you a script. Yes, that was me. By showcasing one of the scripts here (see below!) I’m admitting that I did it. I learned what NOT to do and I’ll NEVER, EVER do it again! I’m...

That’s what my 11 year old daughter said after she read my “mom guilt” post before I posted it on LinkedIn yesterday. My reply, “It doesn’t always have to be about business.” I’m posting about that interaction because I’m sure others have had that thoughts as they’re...

That’s a question that came up in a coaching session yesterday. She’s new around here and looking to grow and learn from people on LinkedIn. Know what my response was? “I love when people look at my profile!” That’s right. I don’t think of those people as lurkers. I...

I don’t know too many people who will do it…literally. Don’t do it here either. When you post, “Look at me, check me out, I’m here!” Even if you feel that you have a “brand” and you want to make sure people know about...
