  • LinkedIn release information from their economic graph regarding job migration.
  • LinkedIn joins up with that famous ‘great leader'(?) Alex Ferguson to find great British business leaders (and help promote Ferguson’s book!).

  • SSI update, I think that to improve my ‘Engage with Insights’ score the following four areas are important;
    • Status updates and published posts
    • Comments and likes of both the above
    • Discussion activity in groups
    • InMail response rates

Commentary

  • What is a connection and does this change over time? The following post from a senior executive at Facebook got me thinking.

Is trimming your connections a good idea? I can see how it would help with engagement and that is a very important aspect of using LinkedIn but it would also reduce your opportunity for introductions. What do you think? Ping me your thoughts at mark@linkedinformed.com.

  • Here a classic example of the lowering of standards on LinkedIn. Should company profiles like this be permitted on a B2B professional network? (explicit warning)

Question

I have two profiles on LinkedIn, the one I don’t use only has three connections. How can I close this account?

ANS = see below, you go to your settings under the ‘Account’ tab

My question for you;

How many ‘Interesting’ quotes did I get away with?

Thanks for voting for the show.

If you haven’t yet you can do so by clicking on the image below

Thank you so much for listening, I really value your support and interest.

As always I would welcome your feedback and questions. If you want to be on the show you can leave a comment by voicemail (right hand side of this page) or email me at mark@linkedinformed.com.

Help me to promote the podcast

It can be difficult to get noticed in iTunes and one thing that can really make a difference is reviews. If you enjoy the show please take a minute to write an honest review in iTunes, it would be most appreciated.

If you are not sure how to write an iTunes review I have made a couple of videos on how it can be done on desktop or mobile

Until next time….
