    344 Level Up Your LinkedIn Game (Insights From My 30-Day Challenge!)

    What's working when it comes to Social Media Marketing, right now?


    If you ask me... it's LinkedIn!


    (psssst: follow me there! https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelseyreidl/)


    Even though LinkedIn has been around for 20+ years, it's more alive than ever before - especially for

    B2B interactions and industry-specific content.


    LinkedIn is also a great platform for new online business owners, because it supports thought-leadership by facilitating professional updates, creating space for professional content, and it offers the chance for advanced targeting for B2B marketing.


    You thought it wasn’t a very sexy platform, and that might be right, but it’s where opportunity is right now!


    Time Stamps:


    00:00 We are feeling totally disenchanted with Instagram, so here's what to try instead

    05:44 Two 'must follow' accounts for learning LinkedIn from the 'pros'

    08:23 Why I love LinkedIN (& the types of opportunities available)

    15:59 Tips for creating engaging content on LinkedIn

    25:12 Recap of my Top 3 Strategies

    Today we're diving into the inspiring journey of CPG founder and mentor Mike Fata, a nine-figure entrepreneur and co-founder of Manitoba Harvest.

    338 The 7 Must-Have Character Traits for Successful Online Entrepreneurs

    In today's episode, we're diving deep into the vital character traits that every entrepreneur should cultivate in order to thrive in their business growth journey.


    We'll explore the importance of resiliency, decisiveness, and the art of balancing multiple life areas to avoid burnout.


    PLUS I share practical time management strategies, including how I block my day to fit in work, family, and personal growth and why believing in oneself is crucial amid the unpredictable nature of business success.


    The Reality of Running a Business is not always as glamorous as what the Social Media Influencers tell you!


    There are going to be days when you wake up with low energy or you're under the weather, and days when you wonder 'does anyone even care about what I'm creating?'


    It's during those times that exercise these 7 character traits because by building them up, we can stay the course, and recommit to the vision of why we started this business to begin with.


    If you're someone who feels like they're meant to defy traditional norms and forge their own way - this episode is for you!
