I honestly believe that two brains are better than one. Craig Langley and I had a Zoom call a few months ago and we talked LinkedIn, because we both LOVE this platform. That conversation led to us chatting about different ways to post here. Next thing you know…we...

Yeah, that’s the song that’s stuck in my head this morning. It’s kind of appropriate because we are preparing to host Thanksgiving dinner. Later this morning, I’m headed to the grocery store for last minute necessities. My husband is doing all the cooking. Pie dough...

Last Thursday after my group coaching call with the team at Networking Solutions, Inc. and StratusDial, LLC, I played “Happy” and danced around. Yeah I’m pretty silly like that. Good thing is I was the only one home so I didn’t get any 🙄 from husband or kids. I really...

In one day I got two of “Please don’t do that” emails. First, I got an email from someone who’s using LinkedIn as a dating site. I’m happily married and even if I was looking, LinkedIn isn’t the place to look someone up and then email a proposition and pictures....

I ask that question (metaphorical but still a good one) on calls with prospects, calls with clients, or even when I’m just talking about LinkedIn. An optimized profile – picture, headline, banner, about, etc. etc. etc. – should be PART of the equation to...

It was my first real job. By real job, I mean the first one I got a real paycheck for. I was a babysitter for a family across the street from where we used to live. I don’t count that because I didn’t get a paycheck for it. At the library, that paycheck had my name on...

Here’s what this picture says to me… “I don’t have a voice.”“I don’t know what my voice is.”“I’m too shy to share what my voice is.”“I’m afraid of being rejected if I use my voice.” Sure I might be assuming any or all of the above. How do I know what this person is...

I do. Junk mail, AKA unsolicited mail, has one place and that’s in the recycle bin. The same thing goes for unsolicited emails. When I get unsolicited emails, from people or businesses who send me emails because we’re connected on LinkedIn, I take action. I...

That’s how many versions of my banner image I did until I was happy with it. Even those of us who work with our clients can learn a lesson here. I knew it was time for a change. I knew that I wanted to capture my Purple Squirrel Magnet and my logo. I also wanted...

I wrote down that line when I was doing yoga recently. It struck a chord because I instantly thought, “That totally applies to LinkedIn.” Show up. Consistency is so important when it comes to LinkedIn. If you post every day for a week and then you...

I get that question a lot, got it today actually. There aren’t too many “Purple Squirrel Magnets” on LinkedIn. So that’s one thing. I also have a triangle strategy that’s unique. If someone calls himself or herself a LinkedIn trainer or coach, that doesn’t mean that...
