How do you find the right LinkedIn expert to support and guide you?
When it comes to LinkedIn expertise I believe in abundance, having a growth mindset and having a speciality. While there are many professionals who say they can help with LinkedIn, when it comes to strategy, training and guidance you want an expert. Implementation is easy once you have the know how and strategy to follow, which is something your VA or social media marketing person won’t necessarily be able to help with.
Consider what your objectives are, what specific area of support you are seeking and how you want to receive the support. Are you looking to have your LinkedIn marketing managed by someone else, do you already have a VA but need some direction and training, do you want to optimise your LinkedIn profile, learn to network better, find a job, recruit staff, implement a LinkedIn marketing strategy for your business and team, or run LinkedIn ads. These are all very different objectives and require the right support.
Choose the right LinkedIn specialist to match your needs and their expertise. Do your research, make sure bold claims can be backed up and trust your instincts, use my LinkedIn Expert Check List as a guide when researching and asking questions.
There are so many experts around the world who I consider experts in their particular fields, who tick the boxes on the LinkedIn Experts Checklist and walk the talk. If I’m not the person to help you, I recommend getting in touch with one of these knowledgeable and experienced LinkedIn specialists.
Here are the LinkedIn experts by location.
