The principles discussed in this podcast not only apply to LinkedIn, but also Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and anything else that means engaging with followers, friends, and connections.The name of the game is going to be engagement and getting conversations flowing in the right way to help you in your professional life. And this is what we are going to discuss today. I brought on the legendary Sean Page -- a good friend of mine who I have admired for a long time in this space. Out of all the people I know, Sean is the most active and has used his social media presence to build a great brand and get some solid engagement. Sean is unique because he has been a top resume writer for Let’s Eat, Grandma for several years -- and is now in charge of hiring the talent for our company. He has used and will continue to use social media as a tool to get engaged with the right people in the professional world. Here's what we address:Why should someone use social media in their professional lives?
