It’s nearly Christmas 2020 and Jack and Jill are celebrating the end of a crazy 2020 and the end of Series 1 of LinkedIn to Jack and Jill!

They are excited to share some Big Wins in our final episode of Series 1 too!  Jane is thrilled to be honoured with one of LinkedIn Top Voices 2020 in Australia, and the LinkedIn Ladies discuss how LinkedIn decides on their top 20 each year (criteria has changed a lot in the last few years). 

Jillian (who was ranked #1 LinkedIn Trainer Sydney in 2019 and in February 2020 ranked #1 LinkedIn “Rockstar” globally) also talks about the Newsletter feature which is rolling out to certain members around the world (including Jane who is thrilled yet again!).

They both are fascinated about how newsletters are attracting huge numbers of subscribers so quickly, and WHY LinkedIn is so selective about who gets the LinkedIn Live broadcast feature and who doesn’t.  

Join in the fun and enjoy our final episode in our very first series of the LinkedIn to Jack and Jill podcast.

Stay safe and stay healthy until we meet again.  See you in 2021!

In this episode Jack and Jill discuss five of the most under utilized LinkedIn features - avoid them at your peril!

Inspired from an article written for Authority 5.0 Magazine, these are the 5 most underutilized but easiest to use. 

From using your voice to stand out from the written word on LinkedIn to using visuals to communicate with the 65% of the population that are visual learners. Although many are basic, some techniques can take your results from the industry standard of around 30% replies to over 80%. 

Most people are too lazy to think outside the box with these features, so Jack & Jill go through many examples of how you can individualize the features and maximise your results. 

Remember, your brand on LinkedIn is not just in the text you write about the business, the essence of your brand is in the visuals and audio too.

LINKEDIN IS IMMUNE TO CORONAVIRUS

Are you feeling paranoid about what’s happening globally with regard to the Coronavirus?  Is COVID-19 making you rethink that way that you work, whether to go to that global conference in Florida, continue with your job search activities, or even go out for dinner with your friends?   

And … have you been affected by the toilet paper frenzy that has gripped the nation and turned people into loo-roll hoarders? 

At LinkedIn to Jack & Jill, Jack (aka Jane Jackson) and Jill (aka Jillian Bullock) discuss how LinkedIn is Immune to Coronavirus because it is an online professional networking platform that connects all of us globally … virtually!  

Yes, we were due to have an intensive recording session in the beautiful Eagle Waves Studios for this episode, however, we decided, due to sniffles, to conduct our podcast conversation remotely this time.  And it’s worked very well!

LinkedIn enables both of us to continue with our work, with our networking activities, with our collaboration efforts, despite what’s happening around us, and we are so grateful to have this opportunity to inspire you to do the same.

In this episode we also discuss the trending News and Views topics on LinkedIn. Today's top items are:

1.     Job Seeking during an Outbreak

2.     No Papering Over – Shame of Hysteria

3.     Coronavirus Official Updates

4.     Kikki-K Collapse (due to the bushfires and exacerbated by the COVID-19 outbreak) 

With over 100,000 cases of Coronavirus now reported in over 100 countries, the COVID-19 is a huge concern, but true to style, Jack & Jill have found the good, the bad and the downright funny side of things – from Jack stocking up on kitty litter, to Jill ridiculing her; from leveraging LinkedIn for business owners during this outbreak, to job seekers staying productive; from discussing how the conference industry will change due to the outbreak of Coronavirus, to the benefits of remote work and how to do it effectively. 

And ALWAYS, how LinkedIn is able to help us stay productive and working, through voice and video messaging, #LinkedInLive broadcasts, video and more.

Jane (Jack) is a strong advocate of remote working and her post on LinkedIn with her Sky News interview about Remote Work has generated a great deal of interest:  https://www.linkedin.com/posts/janejackson_remoteworking-coronavirus-technology-activity-6641051414086942720-LZyq

Jillian (Jill)’s post that questions the way we’ll work in the future (complete with cat photo) is a compelling one:  https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jillianbullock_events-business-coronavirus-activity-6643322138692591616-GTkP
 

COMPETITION TIME! 

We also have a Competition for you!  POST A REVIEW ON iTUNES for us and in Episode 12, we will choose the best review to win prize.  Here’s your chance to WIN from a packet of SORBENT 4-ply toilet paper.  Listen to our podcast, leave us a review, and stand the chance to win loo-rolls 🧻

In this episode we answer some of the hundreds of questions we've been asked about LinkedIn.  From How to get noticed when sending messages on LinkedIn, to how to leverage LinkedIn Groups, to applying for jobs on LinkedIn and how much promotion is shameless promotion ... or not ... and much more!

Sit back with a cup of coffee, enjoy the banter, and start loving LinkedIn even more!

Jack and Jill are back!  In this episode they talk about Personal Branding for career success and Business Branding for business growth while leveraging LinkedIn.

Before you can project an authentic personal brand, you must understand who you are, what your business represents, and before you can build that brand, you must understand:

Your Hidden Image
Your Assumed Image
Your Visual Image
Your Experienced Image
and ... Your Proven Image over time.

Jane 'Jacko' Jackson discusses this in detail to gain personal clarity and lay a solid foundation for career development. With this understanding you can pull it all together to build your brand.

Using the same principles, Jillian 'Don't Call me Jill' Bullock (our LinkedIn Ninja Down Under) leverages her marketing background to focus on how businesses can successfully build their brand on LinkedIn.

Enjoy this fascinating episode - there are many take-aways that are gold!
