What message or messages are you sending those people when you’re not able to speak for yourself? What are the biggest mistakes people make on LinkedIn? There are a lot. It’s hard to narrow them down. What I’ve done is give you three of them, you may...

That might seem like a lot, but if you look at the big picture, it’s just a small number. I am fortunate to be connected to 23,905 people and followed by 26,089 people here. Keeping it all in perspective, the majority of the people who are connected with me or...

So why do so many people just use their job titles as their headline here on LinkedIn? It’s a head scratcher. Take that step away from using LinkedIn as an online resume and really sell yourself in that headline! Which headline do you like better? 1. Business...

It’s called getting the message out to the masses. When it comes to what to do and what not to do on LinkedIn, there are a LOT of opinions swirling around the internet. I speak from experience. I’m not guessing, I have found what works and have had success. I...

Why? A very small percentage of people on LinkedIn are posting original content on a consistent basis. If you’re nervous about posting content here or perhaps you don’t know what to post about or what direction to take your posts, I have a message for you....

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...

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...
