Welcome to the #ShareYourHotness Podcast Episode 11!
My friend Richard Bliss lost his job in tech...to his ex wife. O.O
Yeah. That literally happened.
That event was the catalyst for an impressive story of change, success, effort, and evolution. Named one of LinkedIn's Top Voices, Richard is an expert in Social Media; specifically, how to bridge the gap between older generations of business leaders, and using social media effectively in their professional and personal lives. He started a company, BlissPoint Consulting, which does precisely that. :)
Richard shares a wealth of information in this episode, including:
The difference between sharing personal and private information on social. How to deal with unsolicited messages on LinkedIn. How to identify when a bot is contacting you, VS a real, live human being. What is the LinkedIn "Golden Hour"? The single most important tool of influence on the LinkedIn Platform
I learned SO MUCH from Richard in this episode. I know you will, too! :)
