The LinkedIn™ Branding Show

IN THIS EPISODE: LinkedIn is the ONE social site where posting on how to navigate the platform gets traction, even if that's not your area of expertise. While this topic gets engagement, one pitfall is that we get hooked on posting on how to use and do LinkedIn when this isn't what people hire us for or is aligned with what we want to be known for. This episode shares our personal example of how not to get out of your "true lane" and lose your brand direction.  BUY YOUR COPY: Our book: The LinkedIn Branding Book, The Power of Two: Build Your Personal and Business Brand on LinkedIn for Exponential Growth, is available on Amazon in Kindle, paperback, and hardcover editions: https://mybook.to/The_LinkedIn_Branding_Book (plus bonus Brand Squared Workbook, 50-page actionable bonus with your book purchase.)
