This week’s quick tips include:

LinkedIn™

  • Add a strong call to action to the end of your ‘About’ section i.e phone number, email, website or a link to a landing page, freebie, ebook or book a meeting type link. The links won’t be clickable but they will be copy and pasteable.
  • Revisit your ‘Contact Details’ and make sure they are up-to-date – sounds obvious but you’d be surprised how many aren’t 😱
  • Add a second email address to your account, as well as your primary one. If something happens to your primary email address you will still be able to access your acocunt with the second email address.

How?

  • Me > settings & privacy > sign-in and security > email addresses.

Facebook™

You can now add a ‘subscriber’ sticker to your Facebook stories

TikTok™

You can now upload custom thumbnail images to your clips 😱
