Two First Time Content Creators Share How to Put Yourself Out There on LinkedIn and Create Engaging Posts
Too many of us want to get out on LinkedIn. But we stay stuck on the sidelines not knowing how. I interview Austin James, a certified financial consultant, and Sam Swirsky, a sales strategist on their stories of putting themselves out on LinkedIn for the first time.
They get to share their inspiring journey on LinkedIn, steps to breaking out, and their successes and failures. They also highlight how you can balance your personal life and still remain genuine and authentic on LinkedIn.
