Hello Reader, I think we should harness the use of AI as a tool, rather than it harnessing us (doesn't bear thinking about). I have been using ChatGPT and Claude mainly, and tend to try and start with my own stuff before I let 'them' do any thing else. It can be a bit messy. One of the bug bears I have about AI is how much time you spend correcting and editing stuff. Honestly, some times I think it woudl be fastter to go back to how it used to be. But that's not always efficient. SO. What...

Hello Reader, I love a good bit of alliteration. Content, Community, Consistency.. I have those words on a slide in a talk I give about LinkedIn regularly. In the interest of the letter C, today I bring you in the following order - Company Pages, CDP and craic. Company Pages Last week on LinkedIn, I saw the head of LinkedIn Ads Marketing comment on a post from Social Media Examiner that said the very first thing you need to get right on LinkedIN is.... your Company Page. I was surprised. Then...

Here's the short video to show you how - let me know if you use it and if your subs grow! Conference News This week I confirmed our booking for our pre-conference drinks and nibbles which will be held on the sixth floor of the Ulster Bank HQ overlooking City Hall. If you can...

Hello Reader, A quick question. Are you happy with the results you're getting from LinkedIn right now? I figured out this new algorithm and I want to help you with it. It is not about you - it's about the consumer. They are being served up content based on their interests and activities. To get your knowledge in front of new potential clients, you need to be focused. Here are the analytics from my latest post which is 24 hours old. Check out those SAVES. (Saves are one of the most key ways...

Hello Reader, This week in Lisbon, the best part of speaking at the Executive Assistants conference was not actually the bit where I was on stage (although that was pretty fabulous, not gonna lie). It was the conversations I had. With Marieke from Germany. Catherine from England. Duby from the Netherlands. Angus from Nashville. All real people BTW. The reason I am emailing you on a Sunday is timing. On Tuesday I kick off my two day online summit - the Expert Sessions - and I appreciate that...

Hello Reader, firstly - exam season is upon us in our house - if you are also in the exams season, here is your virtual hug 🤗 This week on the podcast, I share some background info on how I am using Claude in my business.

There was a report out this week from the British Chamber of Commerce (and I...

Hello Reader, Who doesn't love an easy post for LinkedIn? Yesterady I hosted a day long workshop for 12 entrepreneurs who were all relative beginners at using Linkedin - it was a lot of fun. I showed them all how to do this post, and then decided I needed to create my own. This type of content not only gets lots of engagement, but if you do it strategically, it can inform your next month's worth of posts too. Here's one I did earlier...
