I love to write, I love to capture the personality and voice of my clients. Creating LinkedIn profiles is one way I help clients.

I’ve done extensive training and keep up to date via continual training and having to recertify each year.

Recently I thought that a static page was not enough. So yesterday I created a video where I explain my service. It’s been ages since I created a video, so I had to refresh myself on editing with Camtasia. I’ve previously created an intro and outro so that added to the professionalism.

I’m wearing a T Shirt – Cheltenham Hugs, created by the graffitti artist, My Dog Sighs. I’d already created a video wearing a dress, but hadn’t cleared the table so it looked a bit messy. All ready to go out, and I wanted to get it done, so me in a T Shirt it is.

For me, I’d rather just get on and get something done. I hadn’t time to change as I was going out to a concert (The Stranglers/Dr Feelgood) but as I looked again this morning I thought – this sums me up. T shirt and jeans and going to a gig is a big part of who I am and this should be my personal brand not the professional business dress.

That’s part of putting together a LinkedIn profile – capturing a personality. and thinking of the right brand. As I get older, more and more I want to be me. I love my new business photos but don’t think they capture fully how I’m such a live music fan.

So I’d love you to look at your LinkedIn profile – and see how ell this conveys the person you are. And if you want to talk about understanding yourself more, or indeed creating effective marketing material like an enhanced LinkedIn profile let’s talk. https://www.amazingpeople.co.uk/contactus/
