Use LinkedIn to Enhance Your Email Introductions

Do you use LinkedIn to enhance your email introductions? Perhaps I should back up and ask if you do email introductions. One of the many reasons I thrive in the entrepreneurial world is my knack for connecting people I think should meet each other. In fact, people I’ve introduced via email have complimented me on how well I compose these emails. One reason for this is that many years ago, I got the idea of including the URL to the LinkedIn profile for each of the people I’m introducing. I do this for a couple reasons. First, giving access to [...]

Maximize the Accomplishments Section of Your LinkedIn Profile

Do you maximize the Accomplishments section of your LinkedIn profile? Probably not. I say that because my experience shows that many people don’t know this section even exists. People tend to focus primarily on their summary, experience, volunteer, and education sections. So, while it’s easy to overlook this section, populating it can make a big difference. If you’ve never added anything to this section, you’ll need to start by clicking on the Add a Profile Section. Then scroll down to accomplishments and click on the arrow. Now you can start looking at the segments of this section and determine where [...]

Consider Teaching Classes at Colorado Free University

I encourage my Denver-area readers to consider teaching classes at Colorado Free University (CFU). This adult education center has been offering quality, affordable, skill-based, and enrichment classes for adults in the greater Denver metro area since 1987. Joyce's CFU Journey My first experience was taking a class at CFU in 1999 when I needed to brush up on computer skills. Since then, I’ve taken a wide range of classes and had excellent experiences each time. In December 2012, I earned an online marketing and social media certificate from CFU. Nine months later I started to teach some of the classes [...]

Connecting Your Facebook Business Page with a Facebook Group

Have you ever thought of connecting your Facebook business page with a Facebook group? For many years, you could only join a Facebook group as yourself, not as your business page. Also, a Facebook business page couldn’t create a group on Facebook. Things have changed, and fortunately, this is a change on Facebook that’s a good one. As you likely know, only a small percentage of the folks who like your page will typically see the posts on your page. Despite this challenge, I still suggest that people create a business page and post to it periodically. Doing so is [...]

Brand Yourself on Your Personal Facebook Page

Do you brand yourself on your personal Facebook page? Whether you have a Facebook business page or not, branding yourself your personal page makes a lot of sense. Generally, I recommend that business owners create a business page. Having such a page increases your company’s search engine optimization (SEO). Also, you have access to many features that are not available on a personal page. In order to make the most of your personal page, conduct a quick audit. Determine if you have populated all the sections described below. Plus make sure that you have selected “public” as the audience for [...]

Use LinkedIn to Appreciate People’s Volunteer Contributions

Do you use LinkedIn to show your appreciation of people's volunteer contributions? One of the many reasons I like to use social media, especially LinkedIn, is that it’s a great tool for appreciating other people. It’s particularly appropriate to appreciate those who have impacted you.   Example of Someone Using LinkedIn to Appreciate Me Just recently, I led a training session for a dozen vice presidents of Membership of Toastmasters clubs in the Denver metro area. I did this training as a volunteer leader within the organization. (Toastmasters is an international organization that helps people improve their communication and leadership [...]

Spending a Little Time on LinkedIn Can Go a Long Way

One of the most common misconceptions about LinkedIn is that you need to spend a lot of time on it before it becomes useful. Contrary to that notion, I’ve found that spending as little as 15 minutes once or twice a week is enough for most people.   Five Quick Things to at Least Once a Week Review your pending invites and either accept or ignore them. A possible client or referral source could be inviting you to connect. If you aren’t sure if you want to connect with someone, click on Manage All. Then click on Message and send [...]

Facebook Friend Requests and Difficult Facebook Friends

Two common questions I get about Facebook relate to Facebook friend requests and dealing with difficult Facebook friends. Regarding friend requests, I suggest you create a set of criteria to help you determine whether to accept them. There could be times that you deviate, but if you have it, life becomes much simpler. As for difficult Facebook friends, there are several options of various levels of extremity.   How to Reduce the Number of Friend Requests You Receive Before I go into some possible criteria for accepting requests, I want to step back and talk about your settings. To cut [...]

Using LinkedIn as an Attorney, Accountant, Financial Advisor, or a Related Professional

  There are special considerations when using LinkedIn as an Attorney, Accountant Financial Advisor, or a related professional. Are you one of these types of professionals? If so, keep in mind that you typically have a range of compliance requirements you need to comply with on social media. These requirements will vary by profession and even by companies within a profession. Often these requirements restrict some types of information what you can include in your LinkedIn profile. Also, when you want to post on LinkedIn, you will likely need to get the post approved by compliance. Some companies will also [...]
