LinkedIn is more than a place to park your profile—it’s a powerful platform for B2B professionals, consultants, and entrepreneurs to build visibility, credibility, and real business relationships. In this episode, we dive into how to use it with intention and personality to actually drive growth.

I was delighted to be joined by Beth Granger, LinkedIn trainer, consultant, and speaker, Beth Granger Consulting, to discuss smart, practical ways to stand out, build trust, and start better conversations on the platform

Topics included:

🔹Treating LinkedIn like a 24/7 networking event—show up and be real.

🔹Why meaningful comments often go further than constant posting.

🔹Always personalize your connection requests—ditch the generic.

🔹Avoid automation tools that spam—LinkedIn will notice (and so will people).

🔹Remember to use the first person in your profile to create a connection, not distance
