How to Create Content on Linkedin with Ahmad Imam

In this episode Jack and Jill discuss five of the most under utilized LinkedIn features - avoid them at your peril!Inspired from an article written for Authority 5.0 Magazine, these are the 5 most underutilized but easiest to use. From using your voice to stand out from the written word on LinkedIn to using visuals to communicate with the 65% of the population that are visual learners. Although many are basic, some techniques can take your results from the industry standard of around 30% replies to over 80%. Most people are too lazy to think outside the box with these features, so Jack & Jill go through many examples of how you can individualize the features and maximise your results. Remember, your brand on LinkedIn is not just in the text you write about the business, the essence of your brand is in the visuals and audio too.  Tweet to us at https://www.twitter.com/linkedintojack .Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/linkedintojackandjill/ .Follow us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/linkedin-to-jack-and-jill-podcast .For more LinkedIn lead generation support, visit  LinkedIn Ninja Down Under  .and for LinkedIn for your Job Search support, visit Jane Jackson Careers .SUBSCRIBE to this podcast and don't miss out on our next episode! #linkedintips #linkedinpodcast #linkedintojackandjill #careers #linkedinninja #careercoach #janejackson #jillianbullockConnect with Jack and Jill on LinkedIn!Jane JacksonJillian Bullock
