Imagine having fun with like-minded business owners and clients magically appearing out of thin air! Wouldn’t that be amazing? It’s actually not as far-fetched as it may sound. You and I both know that you offer amazing services to your clients. All we need to do now is get people talking behind your back (AKA referring to YOU as the expert in your field).

You know that for your business to thrive, word has to get out. How about doing that in a fun way rather than adding another chore to the list?  You can use paid advertising (not my cuppa tea) or work on your visibility in an organic way. LinkedIn is a brilliant platform to do just that. This is what we focus on in the “Tea Lounge”

Using LinkedIn for business means that you:

• Share your expertise through posts that hold valuable information for your target audience.
• Strategically comment on posts based on the topic or the network of the person who posted.
• Continuously grow your network with the right people.
• Keep your profile in line with the message you send out into the world.
• In all off the above use the tone of voice that resonates with the clients that YOU love to work with.

My name is Petra Fisher and I am the founder of The Values-Based LinkedIn Tea Lounge, a global community for entrepreneurs who see the benefit of using LinkedIn, but can do with some help to make it an enjoyable part of their work.

I’ve made about every mistake there is to make on LinkedIn. Posting without engaging with others. Engaging with content without it strengthening my brand. Promoting out of the blue. I could go on for a bit here…

Bottom line, I did, as they say at The Coca-Cola company “fail fast”. The only way to learn, grow and innovate. These days, I know what works saving you the time I spent figuring it out.

While you use my tried and tested strategies to grow your brand on LinkedIn, I’ll keep on diving in headfirst.
