LinkedIn Conversations
Follow Deanna on LinkedInI read that bringing in new business is harder now than it was before Covid.
Is that true? I haven’t met a prospect face to face since I started this business. I’ve become very used to and acclimated to talking to people virtually. I can talk to people from Ireland, Malaysia, Philadelphia, Florida and the UK simply by going online for video calls. I’d like to know from...
I have over 23,000 followers/connections here. That doesn’t mean I’m a millionaire.
One doesn’t equal the other. Don’t get me wrong, LinkedIn is awesome. It’s not the be all and end all though. Building a business should include LinkedIn but you also have to diversify. #entrepreneur#purplesquirrelmagnet#leverageup
Did you know…
That 4.45 million people have B2B in their LinkedIn headline? 6.09 million have Account Executive in their headline? 37.6 million have Business Development in their headline? 2.08 million have Recruiter in their headline? 13.7 million have Human Resources in their headline? If you aren’t standing...
My LinkedIn profile views took a nose dive, yep they’re down 63%.
You know what? I’m not ready to jump off the tallest building or a cliff. I know exactly why those numbers have dropped so drastically. I haven’t engaged with people here as much as usual. I haven’t posted in 6 days. When the numbers drop, you just pull up bootstraps and hike up that hill again....
Does 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...
