Ok, up and down...lost business but used the time to reflect on my personal and professional desires, marketing and business target market and offerings. Used the time to connect with targeted organisations and won business to providing online webinars...also got new clients with varying covid consequential issues. Connected more with meaningful relationships and developed some new business. Took time to reconnect with myself on a personal and spiritual level.
Beginning to post more videos and some posts
My target market live there!
Before: 1,142
After: 3,477
Connections became pipeline client, posts (text and video) enhanced my profile and business ...testimonials and recommendations.
I was dormant on LinkedIn. Tried it and left it , tried it and left it. I didn't know how to use it properly. Then I signed up to Salt & Pepper Killing it on LinkedIn wkshop. It helped me refocus, develop content, foced ne to look at my profile, banner, how to post better, and instilled a confidence that had gone to sleep when it came to marketing via LinkedIn. Again, i dropped off, excuses such as time availability and being unclear as to my content, message, offerings and market targets. But every now and then I post...now short videos...i receved comments just in the last 24 hrs..'we've missed your positivity and real and meaningful message Andrew.' I didn't think what i say has much of an impact, but apparently, it does!? Client from 5 yrs ago called me on the phone to say 'Thank you, I've been on the edge and your recent video helped me to come back from it a little more.' Im learning more, and beginning to like it a little more. FB and twitter, Struggle with...though i post on fb, Linkedin is more meaningful and focuses me and my business direction more. Twitter? I just don't bother...waste of my energy.
The guidance and teaching and especially the support and camaraderie with the other participants...all in the same or similar boat of LI learning.. My Aha moment? Can't puck one, but getting my banner, profile content clear and posting certainly were.
With a little effort everyone can improve their use of LinkedIn. Like most things it's hard and simple at the same time. Effort pays off.
Being with family...home maintenance chilling
