Let's connect on LinkedIn
As today seems to be a LinkedIn heavy day, let's cap it off by sharing your LinkedIn profile below. Connect if you'd like, no pressure to do so. Here's my personal profile. I don't have a business page as I already manage 6 for my clients 😄

LinkedIn just got more valuable for experts (here's why)
LinkedIn just quietly became one of the most important platforms for experts like you. Here's what's shifting: the algorithm is now favoring topical authority over network size. Topical authority just means the platform recognizes you as a consistent, reliable voice on a specific topic. The more you show up around one or two things with depth and intention, the more LinkedIn connects you with people who are actually looking for what you do. And right now, posts and articles from people with topical authority are being pulled directly into AI search results as source material. If you've been showing up consistently around your core topics, your content is working harder than you think. If you've been sporadic, now's a good time to tighten the focus. Not a trend to chase. Just a good reason to keep doing the work with intention. Are you active on LinkedIn right now, or is it more of a background platform for you?

Your CTA isn't a call to action. It's a favour request.
I've been thinking about how often we tell people to "follow for more" or "save this post" and then wonder why nothing moves. Here's the thing. Those CTAs are asking someone to do you a favour. The CTAs that actually work? They ask the reader to do something for themselves. Here's what that looks like in practice: "Save this" → "Keep this for the week you're stuck on what to post" "Link in bio" → "I put the full breakdown at the link — worth a read if you're [wherever they are at]" "Follow for more" → "If you're an [established expert tired of content advice written for influencers], stick around" "Drop a comment" → ask the thing they actually have an opinion about The ones that work are specific. They meet someone at the moment they're already in. This felt like the right Monday to talk about it, because I'm dropping the first lesson of the Content Shift Roadmap this week. Level one is open to everyone at level 3 engagement. The rest is in Premium. If you've been curious what the Roadmap actually looks like — this is the week to find out. What's the CTA you keep writing even though you're not sure it's working? Watch for another post with content ideas coming up later today.😊

LinkedIn, Business Page or Personal Profile?
This question came up in the community yesterday and I thought it deserved its own post. Personal profile or business page on LinkedIn? My original take: if you are a solopreneur and you are the brand, your personal profile is enough. A business page makes more sense when you have a team, want to run ads, or are building something separate from your name. But then @Liisa Reimann dropped this in the comments and it changed my thinking a little. If you have your business or services listed on your personal profile and you do not have a business page claimed, that little logo next to your listing is a generic blue graphic. People click it. And when they do, they land in search results for others doing similar work. Not you. Your competitors. So at minimum, claim your business page. Even if you rarely post on it. It closes that gap and keeps people in your world instead of sending them elsewhere. Next week I'll be attending Michelle Raymond's session on LinkedIn Company Pages That Convert: The 5 Strategies Everyone Else Misses to brush up on my LinkedIn skills. And of course I'll be sharing more here from all my sessions Now I want to hear from you. Do you have a business page set up?
