Tips for Adjusting to LinkedIn’s Changes

Many people have started asking me for tips for adjusting to LinkedIn's changes. Do you have LinkedIn’s new user interface on your computer yet? If not, you should have it by the end of March. The occasional LinkedIn user might not even notice when the look of their LinkedIn changes on their computer. The more frequent LinkedIn user might be thrown off by these changes. They might start wondering how to update their profile and/or how to navigate effectively. Profile Layout The new look of LinkedIn is much like the way that LinkedIn displays on a mobile device [...]

Getting Sales Navigator on LinkedIn

Until now, I have never considered getting Sales Navigator on LinkedIn, but I have changed my mind. Here’s why. This year I am expanding the business offerings of my company. I will continue to help small business owners and entrepreneurs be more productive with LinkedIn and other social media platforms. My new offering is providing LinkedIn training for teams of sales professionals. Many sales professionals can benefit from LinkedIn features not available to those with a free account. If I am to help them use those features, I will need to get them myself. If you’re considering moving to a [...]

Preparing for LinkedIn’s Changes

Are you preparing for LinkedIn’s changes? As you may be aware, LinkedIn doesn’t announce when its changes are happening. Instead, they tend to gradually roll them out user by user. The next change for LinkedIn users will be the overall design of their LinkedIn profile. Also, the navigation tools are changing as well as certain features going away. While I don’t have these changes, one of my tutoring clients does. I was happy to see the new look “in person” so I could investigate it. Here are some of my thoughts on what I found: There are things that will [...]

Commending Others via Facebook and LinkedIn

During this annual season of giving, consider commending others via Facebook and LinkedIn. Such commendations honor those people and companies that have served you well during the past year. Here are some tips for how to do it: Commending Others on Facebook Review people or companies on their business page just as you might post reviews on Yelp or Google. Start by searching for the person or company’s business page. You will find the Reviews option on the left side of the page. Some business pages will not have it available, but hopefully most will. Click on the word Reviews and select [...]

LinkedIn Can Promote Membership Organizations

There are many ways that LinkedIn can promote a membership organization. Recently, I did a LinkedIn training for the board of directors of the Denver Jewish Chamber of Commerce (DCJJ). They asked me to help them find ways to use LinkedIn to help them grow. The recommendations I gave this group can be successfully applied to other membership-based organizations. Ways LinkedIn Can Promote a Membership Organization Board members should include their position in the experience section of their own profiles for several reasons: Positions in the experience section get more attention than those in the organizations section. Positions come up in the [...]

Removing Facebook Friend Requests and LinkedIn Invites

Each of us has probably sent a social media invite on sites like Facebook and LinkedIn that we regretted sending. Ever wish you never sent that Facebook Friend request? Or have you ever sent a LinkedIn invitation you didn’t mean to send? When people first start using these sites, they often send out invites by mistake. Even experienced users have done this. Sadly, LinkedIn especially encourages its users to send out invites to large number of people and makes it easy to do so in error. Luckily there are ways to remove these inadvertently sent invites and requests. And for [...]

LinkedIn Profile – Just Have One!

When your career takes a major shift, it is tempting to create a second LinkedIn profile to reflect the change. Don’t do it! Recently I started working with a client who changed companies. To distinguish herself from her former professional identity, she created a second LinkedIn profile. Her original profile was quite robust, with over 500 connections. By the time she sought my help, she had over 200 connections on her second profile. What’s a person to do in this situation? Sadly, it is complicated. Duplicate LinkedIn Profile - Use the LinkedIn Help Center Want to know if you [...]

Frequency of LinkedIn Emails – How to Adjust This Setting

Many people tell me that they want to reduce the number of LinkedIn emails that they get. But they don’t know how to do make this happen. When I was a newbie on LinkedIn, I was overwhelmed by the number of emails I received. Then I found the settings where I could adjust the frequency emails. I was delighted with this newfound info. Once I made these adjustments, I got only the types of emails I wanted. And my inbox wasn’t filling up with unwanted messages. Along with adjusting this setting, double check your “primary email” on LinkedIn. This is [...]

Three Ways for Job Seekers to Stand Out on LinkedIn

Job seekers: be sure to have your LinkedIn profile really stand out when potential employers find it. To accomplish that you need a headline that attracts attention. Plus you need a summary that illustrates how you will be an asset to their business. But those essentials are not enough. There are other, often over-looked profile features which can differentiate you from your competition. Highlight Your Certifications Section Make sure to include all relevant certifications and licenses. List all the specifics: the exact name of the certification or license, certifying authority, and date granted. If applicable, include the license or certificate [...]

It was my extreme pleasure to work with Joyce. I had issues with multiple accounts on Facebook. I also needed a makeover with my personal account and associated business page. Joyce was outstanding. She knows her stuff. She was positive, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, patient, reaffirming and efficient.

I attended Joyce's group class for LinkedIn updates, and it was AMAZING!

I have been on LinkedIn since it started and have used it extensively, but there are constantly new things they are adding for us to update on our personal and business profiles! I feel like I finally have my profile reflective of me as a business owner versus my previous life in the corporate world! Thank you so much for your help, Joyce! It was perfect!
