What you are missing by not being on LinkedIn.

#Takeaways

 

• LinkedIn is a great platform to grow your network without having to attend any events

• You get to build your personal brand and showcase the work you do

• Don’t rely on your work speaking for itself - tell people about it

• Connecting with those decision makers that can influence or creat opportunities for your career progression

• Use the 4 C’s to build your visibility - Clarity, Connection, Content and Consistency

 

 

On today's show we are talking all about LinkedIn and how I believe you are missing out by not being on the platform or being on there and not doing much. 

I share 3 key things that you are missing out on and how you can start to build your own LinkedIn strategy using the 4 C’, clarity, connection, content and consistency. 

If you are ready to raise your profile, build your personal brand and grow your network then LinkedIn is a great place to do all these things - and if you are on LinkedIn then make sure we are connected.

“So if building a supportive and engaging network, using your personal brand and creating new opportunities for yourself is something that interests you?  Then you need to be using LinkedIn more.” - Gemma

“A network that works.  Being on LinkedIn it is expected that you will connect with others, tell them about you and want to find out more about others too.” - Gemma

“I have to say that the majority of opportunities from speaking gigs, to being a guest on other peoples podcasts, to writing articles for magazines, being on a panel, and working with more and more women and organisations have come from the connections and most importantly the relationships I build on LinkedIn.  Don’t take this for granted.” - Gemma
