    95. New LinkedIn Features: Post Collaboration and the Present Label

    LinkedIn added two features and told no one. One can put your post in front of five other networks at once. The other is already on your profile, and most people have not noticed it yet. We walk through where to find the new Add collaborators button, how the accept process works on the other person’s end, and the exact situations where a collaborative post is worth it: multi speaker workshops, LinkedIn Lives with co-hosts, and partner announcements. Then we cover the Present label in your Experience section and how to reorder your roles so the business you are actively marketing is the first thing a prospect sees. Not every new feature deserves your time. The question is whether it helps you build a relationship, strengthen your authority, or create a new opportunity. These two can, if you use them with intention.

    94. Does LinkedIn Still Work? Real Results and the Three Habits That Make It Work

    “LinkedIn doesn’t work anymore.” We hear it from coaches, consultants, and service professionals almost every week. Fewer leads, less engagement, content that shows up one day and vanishes the next. In this episode, we answer the question honestly. Does LinkedIn still work? Yes, and we have the receipts. In the last four weeks alone, LinkedIn booked us a half day consulting engagement, signed a new one to one coaching client, brought in a referral for one of our programs, filled a group coaching program, and filled a paid workshop. One of our clients is now at full capacity with 18 recurring clients. Another had over 100 people accept the invitation to her very first LinkedIn Live. So the platform still works. The real question is whether you have adapted or whether you are still using your 2017 playbook. We break down the three habits that separate the people winning on LinkedIn from the people giving up on it: growing your network every day, starting genuine conversations in the DMs, and creating at least three pieces of thought leadership content every week. We also walk through how to use your Featured section, your LinkedIn newsletter, and LinkedIn Live to move people off the platform and onto your email list. If you have been thinking about quitting LinkedIn, listen to this one first. Ready to Make LinkedIn Work for You?

    93. The LinkedIn Shortcuts That Could Cost You Your Account

    Three popular LinkedIn shortcuts break the LinkedIn User Agreement, and a lot of people are still using them. Some know it and do it anyway. Many have no idea they are putting their account at risk. In this episode, we walk through three rules from Section 8 of the LinkedIn User Agreement. We cover automation tools that scrape data or send connection requests and messages for you, engagement pods that manufacture likes and comments, and giving an executive assistant or VA access to your personal account so they can act as you. We also explain what you can hand off, including your company page, and why your personal profile needs to stay yours. LinkedIn is built around real, person to person interaction. There are no shortcuts to building real relationships. Ready to grow on LinkedIn without the risky shortcuts?

    92. LinkedIn Profile Tips: New Add Section Layout and Activity Settings

    LinkedIn profile tips for coaches, consultants, and service professionals who want more control over the first impression their profile makes. In this episode of Entrepreneur Rescue Mission, we cover two LinkedIn profile updates you need to know about. First, the Add section button has a new, simpler layout. We walk through the seven main sections, what lives under More, and how to decide which sections are worth adding to your profile. Then we cover an older feature most people have never touched. In your Activity section, one content type is highlighted in green, and that's what visitors see first. You'll learn how to change it to posts, videos, images, newsletters, or events, and why it's worth testing different options and checking your analytics.

    91. LinkedIn Growth Is a Contact Sport: 3 Habits That Move Your Business Forward

    If LinkedIn feels overwhelming, you're not alone. There's a lot you could be doing, and it's easy to stay busy without seeing real business growth. In this episode, we keep it simple. Three activities, done consistently, that build your network, start more conversations, and create more opportunities for your business. Connect. Send at least 15 connection requests a day, Monday through Friday, to potential ideal clients and referral partners. Without new connections, you can't grow your visibility, your reach, or your leads. Converse. Reach out to 5 people a day. It doesn't have to be complicated. Welcome a new connection, send a birthday or work anniversary message, or thank someone for voting in your poll. Growing a business is a contact sport, and you can't wait for people to come to you. Create. Publish 3 pieces of thought leadership content a week. When someone gets your message, they check your profile to see what you're about. Your content is what gets them to reply. Whether you're doing one of these, none of them, or used to do all three and got away from it, this is your reminder to get back to it.

    90. LinkedIn Algorithm Changes: Collaborative Posts, AI Slop, and Reach

    LinkedIn's algorithm is changing how your content gets seen. In this episode, we break down the three biggest updates coaches, consultants, and service professionals need to know right now. First, LinkedIn collaborative posts. You can now publish a post with up to five collaborators, so it shows up in their networks, not just yours. We walk through how to add collaborators on desktop and mobile, how it's different from tagging, and why you should always ask before adding someone. Second, LinkedIn's feed is getting smarter. Specific content beats broad content, relevance matters more than follower count, and talking about the same topics consistently is how you get known for them. It's old to you, but it's new to someone else. Third, AI content is getting a closer look. We explain LinkedIn's new AI slop flag, what happens if one of your posts gets flagged, and how to use AI to support your voice instead of replacing it. In this episode: How LinkedIn collaborative posts work and who to collaborate with.Why collaborating reaches more people than tagging.How LinkedIn's feed decides who sees your content.Why repeating your core message helps you grow.What the AI slop flag does, and how to keep your content human.

    89. The Connection Request Note That Is Costing You Replies

    Stop adding notes to your LinkedIn connection requests. The advice used to be that a personalized note gets you accepted more often. That was true when almost nobody was doing it. Now the note is the fastest way to look like every other pitch sitting in someone's notifications. In this episode, we read real connection requests that landed in our inbox this month, explain why not one of them earns a reply, and cover what to do instead. Inside this episode: Why a pitch inside a connection request never worksThe three situations where a note actually makes sense, with word for word examples Why LinkedIn now limits how many personalized notes you can send The message to send the moment someone accepts, and what to never send Why the goal of a connection request is not the sale Join us for the Amateur to Expert on LinkedIn Intensive, 5 live days, September 28 through October 2, 12 to 1 PM EDT.

    88. The LinkedIn Authority Formula: 3 Steps That Turn Content Into Clients

    Being visible on LinkedIn and being trusted on LinkedIn are two different things. Most coaches and consultants are already posting consistently. What they are not getting is the call, the referral, or the reply that turns into business. That is not a posting problem. It is an authority problem. In this episode we walk through the LinkedIn Authority Formula, three parts that work together. Give value before you ask, so your content stands completely on its own. Build a content ecosystem, so people have somewhere to go after they read you. Become known for something specific, so people can describe you when you are not in the room. The goal was never viral content. It is being known, trusted, and remembered by the right people. Ready to turn LinkedIn into a real client acquisition tool?
