Employer Branding | Amplifying your unique voice online ⚡️LinkedIn Strategy + Trainings for Individuals + Corporate Teams 👾 It's a blurry world 🎙The LinkedIn Lounge Podcast Host

The personal is professional. 

When it comes to using LinkedIn, the professional networking platform, we hide everything personal about ourselves and the human side of the work experience. 

You're thinking: 

"I can't say that."
"I'll lose credibility."
"What will so and so think."

You don't know what to say or how to share your professional experience in a meaningful way. 

You're worried about your professional reputation.
Worried about what your colleagues will think or say about you
Afraid you might be proved wrong or don't live up to your title. 

Getting started is the hardest part.

And once you do it's a confidence growth journey in discovering your voice and sharing your story. It takes time and commitment to show up consistently on LinkedIn. 

With guidance, direction, and intentionality you can make your LinkedIn profile work for you - tapping into exciting unimaginable opportunities! 👏

Last week I presented to over 100 professionals on using LinkedIn as part of their job search. 

They had some really great questions! 

↳ But the key comes down to being willing to put yourself out there: 

V I S I B I L I T Y 

Embracing your journey. 
Owning your unique value proposition. 
Telling other people about it! 

And Barb Monson, MBA and I created The Visible Woman Series to help women do just that so they can be seen and heard in any room they step into (virtually and in-person). 

Uncover and define your superpower so you're strengths are crystal clear. 
Learn the inner workings of LinkedIn to make every action count. 
Build momentum to reach all your professional goals. 👏💃💪

We start this Friday, March 6th!

Writing content for LinkedIn shouldn't take you hours. 

Here are 7 tips to help ease your writing and sharing process: ⤵

1. Time-block on your calendar to get it done.
2. Keep a running list of ideas (note app / paper note / draft).
3. Don't focus on the length but focus on the communication goal. 
4. Use your calendar as a prompt (upcoming events, projects, celebrations). 
5. It's ok (and good) to share an idea over and over again, people easily forget!
6. Keep a record of drafts you created but never published (they can be handy in the future!) 
7. Simplicity beats complexity every time - one idea, one person, one concept. 

The more you write the easier it gets. 

You can't "mess up" your content, everything you write and share just helps you sharpen and refine your voice. 

________________________________________
P.s. I'm using this AI edited photo as an experiment. 

Could you tell it was AI? 

(Also- it always subtly makes my neck and chin smaller and gives me pointed teeth without prompting it to.... what is that?!)

LinkedIn recently shared a deep dive blog on how the algorithm works. ⤵

In a nutshell, you want to: 

- Be relevant 
- Demonstrate value
- Show consistency 

Not in just what you create 
But also in how you interact 

The goal is to show content to its users they believe they'd be genuinely curious and interested in particularly from people outside of their existing network.

This is why building a personal brand is more important than ever in having your LinkedIn work FOR you. 

What do you stand for? 
What do you speak into? 
What are you known for? 
What insight are providing?
Are you reliable? 
Are you building trust?

Having a strong defined personal brand reiterates your expertise and strategically positions you to a growing network. 

[NOT constant but consistent]. 

Build with clarity. 
Build with intention.

People are much nicer than we give them credit for. 

99.9% of the time if someone isn't going to respond to you, they wont. 

No criticism, harsh words, or negative feedback. 

They just leave you on read. 

But you stop yourself before you even start. 
You've already told yourself no.
You don't even make the ask. 

The first step to getting visible is showing up. 

And Barb Monson, MBA and showing you exactly how to do that in The Visible Woman Series. ⤵

How to define your Unique Value Proposition and share it with confidence and how to navigate LinkedIn to know exactly what to do to reach your goals.

WRITE THE IDEA DOWN! 



Trust me, if you tell yourself you'll remember - you'll forget. 

RIP all the good ideas lost in space and time.

Inspired by Dan Webb wanted to share some worthwhile resources and events with you! 

A couple weeks back, Lisa Klein shared a fantastic way to plan for your content 

Brittany Wayman is leading a Soul Care Retreat in March for a transformative day of rest, reflection, and renewal.

Matt R Vance and Chris Le'cand-Harwood recorded a powerful podcast together on documentary-style storytelling to show and share your culture online.

Barb Monson, MBA is leading a Chameleons and Peacocks Meeting all about visibility - being visible at work isn't about becoming louder or more polished. It's about knowing when to blend in, when to stand out, and how to communicate your unique value in both moments.

All of these are linked below in the comments. ♡

And you know what - if you have an event coming up I don't mind if you promote here - drop it in the comments!

Visibility isn't so much "Look at me!" as it is "I'm here, I'm present."

Visibility isn't being the loudest in the room, it's being confident. 

Visibility isn't being everywhere, it's strategically showing up where it counts.

Visibility isn't about following and nagging but providing consistency. 

Visibility isn't about chasing and hoping, it's having a clear focus. 

↓↓↓

And that all starts with radical confidence in what you bring to the table.✨

The Visible Woman Series starts this Friday - it's time to own your superpower and let the world see, hear, and know what you offer → https://lnkd.in/dcZN9Wkn
_____________________________________________

P.s. I know 'Visibility' is upside down - we're turning it on it's head to start thinking differently about what it looks like for YOU.

LinkedIn is a professional networking platform. 

It's an online active living portfolio. 
It holds virtual interactive resumes. 
It's for sharing your employer brand.
It's for job seekers, recruiters, head hunters. 

Yet if you talk about your professional (and personal) wins  ..... it's bragging? 

If you went to an interview you would totally sell yourself share your career highlights and wins! 

Although it's does make a difference in HOW you share those wins.
