News & LinkedIn Marketing Tips from Debbie
Helping you learn more about (and learn to love) marketing your business.
Why I Just Rewrote My Own LinkedIn About Section
I spend my working life helping business owners feel more confident on LinkedIn. Profiles, content, strategy: it's what I do, day in, day out.
So you'd think my own profile would be spot on, right?
Well. I took a proper look at my About section this week and realised it was doing a perfectly decent job of telling people what I do. But it wasn't really telling them why I do it, or what I believe about LinkedIn that makes my approach different.
It was fine. But fine isn't the same as good.
You Do Not Need To Accept Every Connection Request
Connection strategy reminder:
- Quality over quantity, always
- Connect with people who genuinely matter to your work, industry, or goals; not random strangers from someone else's connections list.
Your network should be full of people you'd actually want to have a conversation with, not people you're hoping won't notice you've never crossed paths.
Let Your Personality Shine Through On LinkedIn
Authenticity beats cleverness every single time.
Your potential clients want to work with you - the real you. Not some polished, formulaic version that sounds like everyone else. The quirks, the personality, the way you actually think and speak - that's what makes you memorable and trustworthy.
An Easy Company Page Strategy On LinkedIn
Personal profiles get far greater reach than company pages. So when you post something on your company page, repost it to your personal profile to give it a boost. Your personal network will see it, engage with it, and suddenly your company page content has legs.
Consistency Avoids Feast n Famine On LinkedIn
If your ideas and inspiration come in waves, you can schedule posts in advance right in LinkedIn. When you've got creative energy and a bit of time, batch-create a few posts and schedule them out. Then when life gets hectic, you're still showing up consistently.
One Post = One Message On LinkedIn
If you're trying to say more than one thing, save the rest for another post. Your content will work harder, and you'll have a steady stream of updates rather than feast-and-famine posting.
Always Repost + Thoughts On LinkedIn
When you want to share something with your wider network, if you just hit "Repost" without adding anything, you're essentially a human forward button. You've missed a golden opportunity to show your expertise and add value.
Always choose "Repost with your thoughts" and add something.
Comments Are Your Secret Weapon On LinkedIn
Here's the secret that most people miss: commenting on other people's posts IS content.
Let me say that again: COMMENTS ARE CONTENT.
You don't need to be creating posts all the time to be visible on LinkedIn. In fact, five minutes a day commenting on other people's posts can be more valuable than sporadic posting.
