Episode 248 - Introducing LinkedIn for Real People

I would like to reset the room for you today.

How do you currently view LinkedIn?

Somewhere people are constantly selling to you?

Does this sound familiar?

• People are sending you spam messages.
• A lot of people seem to be using AI to write their posts
• You are tempted to download one of those third party plug in things others talk about - you know - they send automatic messages for you, find people and then all you have to do is get them on a call?
• You don't really have time to do this stuff so you just scroll through the feed and click the like button a few times

What if it could be different?

What if you looked forward to checking your LinkedIn? Catching up with your network, reading some interesting posts and maybe even attending a LinkedIn audio once a week?

We don't need to run before we can walk. I am not suggesting you start broadcasting a weekly live show yourself. But I would love you to feel comfortable posting once or twice a week. And every time you open the app on your phone, you recognise the person in the newsfeed and enjoy commenting on their content.

Shall we do this?

I am going to write a series of newsletters aimed at helping you. The individual. And record these accompanying podcasts.

These newsletters are going to be based on a theme - how to approach LinkedIn as though it were your next in-person industry event.

We are not eating the whole elephant today - let's just start with the first step - preparation.
