Follow Deanna on LinkedInDoes your LinkedIn strategy look like this?
Don’t get tangled in the mess of “I think I should do this” or “I think I should do that.” I can help you with that LinkedIn strategy! When I get done relocating that is. There’s nothing like the need to sew a button in the middle of a move and then finding this in your sewing kit. 🙄...
The more you show up, the more people see you.
https://vimeo.com/577298055 It’s a loaded statement. Yes, that statement applies to videos too. Consistency is important. You have to show your network that you show up and you consistently show up. I started creating content here 2.5 years ago (2018!) and back then I was one of the few people who...
The About section on your LinkedIn profile SHOULD NOT be a duplication of the Summary at the top of your resume.
It SHOULD tell us your story. What does your “About” say about you? #linkedin#purplesquirrelmagnet#leverageup
Are you happy and content scrolling through your experience (on your LI profile here) or does it make you cringe?
While I know that my previous positions led me to where I am now as building blocks, I can’t help but think, “What do people think when they browse my experience?” Do people see that a combination of content marketing, social media management and sales have led me to where I am now? (In case you...
Let the words speak for themselves.
You don't always need to post with a picture. I've done numerous posts that were straight text, no images. Back when I started posting content here, nearly 3 years ago, I went out of my way to add a picture. Now it's not as big of a deal. I will say that I'm adding pictures with each of my posts,...
This weekend, I got a reminder that not everyone understands.
Someone sent me this question in a DM. So I’m happy to pass along a reminder. Automation isn’t authentic.Automation isn’t organic.Automation isn’t real people engaging or posting or communicating via DM. Automation doesn’t belong here on this platform. Don’t automate. LinkedIn isn’t the place for...
Here’s a big plus of having Creator Mode here on LinkedIn…
The number of connection requests coming in has gone down dramatically. I appreciate that because LinkedIn caps all connection requests at 30,000. Meanwhile, there is no cap on follower requests. Follow first, get to know that person, connect if it makes sense....
“You have brains in your head and feet in your shoes, you can steer yourself in anyway you choose.”
I’ve been thinking a lot about “Oh the Places You’ll Go” (if you haven’t read the Dr. Seuss book, I highly recommend it). My daughter is ending one chapter and getting ready to start another. She just finished 5th grade and is getting ready to start Middle School in a new city in just a few...
It’s a diverse audience…and they heard me goof up A LOT.
I’m a “one take video” person and that’s what I teach my clients. When it comes to creating a Cover Story (video under your profile picture of you have Creator Mode) here, there’s a little more pressure because lots of people are going to see it on my profile and I wanted to make sure I got it...
Have you ever just thought, “This is so cool!”???
That’s my thought right now. I just scrolled through the hundreds of people who voted in my poll “How do you engage here on LinkedIn?”. I posted it last week and was just so amazed that it resounded with so many people. Not only am I pleasantly surprised at all the comments and the votes….I’m also...
