Tip
Jo Saunders has provided this weeks tip. How to withdraw a LinkedIn invitation.
Does LinkedIn advertising work? I would really love to hear from any listeners about their experience of advertising on LinkedIn. Please leave me a voicemail (right edge of this page) or email me at mark@linkedinformed.com.
Do 'Specialties' in a profile have any significant keyword weighting in a LinkedIn search? Answer = No! I'm not sure they ever did but now they are not even a field of their own so do not count more than any other word.
That' it for this week, thanks for listening.
Please get in touch with any comments, suggestions or questions by leaving a voicemail or emailing mark@linkedinformed.com.
