Want to Stay Top of Mind?

Do you want to stay top of mind on LinkedIn? The best way to do this is by regularly posting updates. WAY too many people are on LinkedIn but never share a thing. Are you one of them?

Are Your LinkedIn Invites Appealing?

Are your LinkedIn invites appealing? If not, perhaps that's the reason that too many of them aren't getting accepted. Think about the invites you get from others.

I know that I am more likely to connect with someone when they have written me a note with the invite. What especially appeals to me is when the invitation includes a specific reason we should connect. Here are some tips for creating invites that are likely to be accepted. See last week’s article for tips [...]

Are You Happy with Your LinkedIn Connections?

You may have heard the phrase: “We are who we associate with.” It applies to many aspects of our lives, including our social media presence, especially on LinkedIn. It’s best to take a strategic approach to whom you connect with. That way, you will be happy with your connections. When I am not sure whether I want to accept an invitation to connect, I look for our shared connections. And I assume people I invite to connect are doing the same thing. Too many LinkedIn users spend very little time on LinkedIn, often missing great opportunities to make connections. Here [...]

Want to Brand Yourself Better on LinkedIn?

Want to brand yourself better on LinkedIn? Most people do! So why not you, too? One of the easiest ways to improve your brand is to customize your LinkedIn URL. Even though it’s easy to customize your URL, many people don’t even know they have one. Back when you created your LinkedIn account, LinkedIn assigned you a URL that had your name and a set of random letters and numbers. Think of it as an account name. Everyone gets one, but they’re nothing special. The URL appears at the top of your LinkedIn profile. People also see it at the [...]

How to Stop Following Facebook Friends and Facebook Business Pages

Ever wonder how to how to stop following people and pages on Facebook? Some people have never considered this, but many find that eventually they want to follow fewer friends and/or business pages, but they don’t want to end those relationships. Unfollowing allows you to stop receiving their posts without unfriending them, which can be awkward. Although Facebook doesn’t notify someone that you unfriended them, you could come up in the list of people they might want to friend, which might make them wonder.
