LinkedIn Strategies and Branding with Kevin D. Turner - Ep 186

Brenda Meller Season 1 Episode 186

In this episode, I have an engaging conversation with my good friend Kevin D. Turner, a fellow LinkedIn trainer and coach. We discuss the abundance mentality, social media karma, and how bringing in other experts helps everyone involved. Kevin shares insights on branding, LinkedIn features, and the importance of a strategic approach to using AI. 

We also delve into how he maintains his 'LinkedIn Rockstar' status through continuous engagement and why he avoids using certain LinkedIn tools like InMails. Tune in for valuable tips and a rundown of the latest LinkedIn updates.
