Jabez LeBretIt’s high time we share these five important things you should never do on LinkedIn. We finish up this episode with one thing in particular that you’ll want to start today …
Jabez LeBret and Mica Gadhia bring you five LinkedIn practices you should stop doing right now. Seriously!
What not to do is often more important than what you should be doing. Listen in because this show could be a social media life-saver for you.
Do you send the automatic connection message through LinkedIn when reaching out to someone new? No, you definitely should not do that. What about automatic replies, do you use them or not?
We’ll also teach you the best practices along the way so instead of making these five errors, you’ll be working smarter to create the connections and business partnerships you’re looking to gain.
In this episode Jabez LeBret and Mica Gadhia share …
- Five things you should never do on LinkedIn
- A few great reasons you should join our Missing Link LinkedIn Group right now!
- How to keep the “generic” out of your communications

Thank you for your podcast! I appreciate the info!
Best,

Cathy, thank you so much for listening and glad you enjoyed the show.
If your broadcast is an example of your professionalism — yuk!!!
Anton, if you think that is bad, just wait till I get back on the show – professionalism will get a nice slap in the face!
Sean,
I’m your 2nd biggest fan (second only to you) 😀
So I say this out of love, I’d hurry back from your sabbatical since this easily turn into a Wally Pipp situation for you. Because Jabez was fantastic filling in for you and I LOVED his tip at the end of the episode of one suggestion TO DO.
Jason, I will be back soon to the show and yes, Jabez sucks because he is very good and can’t wait to get back into the mix.
Great questions regarding duplicated content on LinkedIn and on your website! I often times come across this question.
From an SEO perspective I would never recommend to use the same content you have on your site for Linkedin posts. Having duplicated content online is never a good idea in general. If there is no penalization today, tomorrow could look totally different.
It would be better to create and post the original article on LinkedIn. Then link to your LinkedIn article to related blog posts or articles on your website.

Dagmar, I appreciate your point and would say that if the post has already been indexed on your site then it would be OK to duplicate. Ideally the rel=canonical would be available on Pulse but you can also indicate via text and a link the original source. Of course, I agree that original work is ALWAYS better but there are times when a syndicated piece can help you discern what your audience is looking for and help guide you in original content creation. Great point you make and thank you for sharing.
I just wanted to send you both a note of thanks to let you know how much I truly enjoyed this episode. I was really inspired by the LinkedIn Challenge that was issued as well and am going to reach out to my network and get to know them better. Thank you.
I have also added your Podcast to my favorites!
