    Practice Pointer: This LinkedIn feature made me rethink the content I post on it

    In this episode, Wayne Pollock (Founder of the Law Firm Editorial Service) explains how his approach to posting content on LinkedIn has changed thanks to choosing to be notified every time certain people with large followings post on the platform.

Inspires him regarding the formats of his posts; and 4. Reminds him that not every post, even from LinkedIn "experts,"  is going to be "a banger."   ==== + Learn more about Wayne Pollock, the host of Legally Contented and the founder of the Law Firm Editorial Service: https://www.linkedin.com/in/waynepollock + Learn more about the Law Firm Editorial Service: http://www.lawfirmeditorialservice.com + Do you have any idea how much money your firm is losing when its lawyers write thought-leadership marketing and business development content themselves?
