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...

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 got this!!!So happy for you!!!You can do this!!! Those are just some of the words of encouragement I tell my clients, both verbally and online. Why? Because I’m a cheerleader. I was inspired to write this one over the weekend because I am always the one shouting...

I was paying too close attention and I didn’t think, “I should have taken a picture” until several hours later. Last night I took my 9 year old daughter to our first Cleveland Cavaliers game. I didn’t plan on posting anything about it here. Oh yeah, it was our first...

My kids’ first trip on an airplane. Their first trip to Walt Disney World. In some ways it seems like yesterday and in other ways it seems like many years (decades!) since we took this trip. I absolutely loved how these pilots took time out to talk to my kids…because…...

25 minutes after I reported the fake account, Twitter suspended it. Thank you Twitter for the fast work to keep the fake Deanna Russo people off Twitter! There is only one me, one Purple Squirrel Magnet. Never duplicated. 🙂 Where did “purple squirrel magnet” come...
