My Week on LinkedIn - Week 33
NEW WEEK Commencing 13 August
Last week 22 up 2
Last Week 1578 Down 29
SATURDAY 13 August 934 impressions
I didn't have anything to talk about on Saturday and therefore I used the opportunity to promote the chat with Francesca.
These posts do not do so well, especially on a weekend, but I was impressed that by Tuesday I had nearly 1,000 impressions.
Here is that post.
Should Accountants be putting content out on LinkedIn? Should they be creating daily videos on LinkedIn? Is it ok to do all of this without wearing makeup?
You will love my guest in my show this coming week. None other than LinkedIn superstar and Cloud Accountant Francesca Tricarico will be joining me for a chat.
Francesca has just come Second in a chart for Accountants & Bookkeepers and the community for having the highest number of followers. Fran has achieved this with her consistent videos of her showing up daily to let us know what’s happening and helping us to see the real side of being a business owner.
I’ve been a friend of Fran for ages, but only met her for real at the recent Digital Accountancy SHow when I interviewed her on stage to help other Accountants & Bookkeepers to see that it’s not that difficult to get your message out there.
Plus, as Fran is such a fan and a great user of LinkedIn, she is already one of my favourite people.
If you want to hear more of Frans's story or ask her some questions be sure to tune in next week.
Every Wednesday at 12:30 pm I talk to the wonderful people who help and inspire Accountants & Bookkeepers to get where they want to be even if sometimes it is to stop being stuck. For show number 35 of my 15 Minutes for Accountants & Bookkeepers show, my guest is Francesca Tricarico.
Please join me to find out more and ask your questions too.

SUNDAY 7 August 2,810 impressions,
It was my Grandson’s birthday on Sunday so i had to post about that eh? My daughter is not keen on his face being on social media so I respect her wishes and always check if it’s ok. My grandson is a big part of my life so I do want to share him with you.
He had Lego, which I know many adults play with, so a Lego post seemed like a good idea.
It did very well compared to other posts this week and had loads of engagement.
Here’s the post along with a photo of my playing Lego with him. ❤️
Do you love LEGO?
Our grandson is 2 today and OMG he has had LEGO which is great news for his Bampi. (that's me) I love Lego and to spend hours playing blocks with him is living my best life. ❤️
Did you know that there are 86 Lego bricks for every person on Earth?
Or that Lego is the world's biggest producer of tyres? An incredible 870,000 tyres are produced every day!
What are your memories of Lego or are you a collector and have some of these awesome sets that Lego makes for adults?
Share your photos of your best creations.
Happy Sunday!

MONDAY 15 August 1,230 impressions
My normal Monday Video. This one was shot inside because I hadn’t worked out the content. I’ll try to get that sorted for this week as my beach video scored highly!
Where do you get your inspiration for creating content?
Content is EVERYWHERE. But if you need a hand here are some ideas.
✅ The Heatwave
✅ Never Give Up Day
✅ Recruitment
✅ Blackberry Picking
✅ Late Nights
Every Week for 2022 I am producing a video to give you FIVE ideas about what to post on LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and Facebook. And any other platform that you love using.
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐊 33.
I never imagined that I'd still be going after so long.
All this consistency is filling up my YouTube channel and also giving me more confidence talking to the camera and being comfortable putting myself out there.
Think where you would be if you create content regularly.
Go on, give it a go today.
It's all about being front of mind and if you can create at least one piece of content a week you'll be doing so much more than the majority of users on your favourite social media platform.
Please give me a shout if you need a hand, what will you create today?
Have a fantastic week

I had the Lovely Amy Rowlinson on my show today so it was worthy of a post around what she stands for.
I got some great reactions, but because I put a link in maybe this bombed a bit?
Do you know your why❓
❓ Why do you get out of bed in the morning?
❓ Why you do what you do?
❓ Why do you even bother eh? 😂
I guess we all ask this question now and then, but do you ask it every day? Do you really know your purpose and why you do stuff?
I wish that I had found my why earlier, but I've got it now and it makes everything I do so much easier.
I'd love to hear all about your why and how it's working for you.
One person who knows all about WHY is Amy Rowlinson. She asks this question every single day and helps her clients to find and nurture their WHY's too.
I will be chatting to the lovely Amy today on my LinkedIn Live show '15 Minutes Behind the Profile' at 12:30pm
If you want to find your why or just listen in then today's show will be a corker. Amy also runs her own podcast so I'll be a little nervous today asking the professional the questions.
So come on, Don't Be Shy.
Tell me your Why
Why do YOU do what you do?

WEDNESDAY 17 August 1,857 impressions
I saw a post bashing LinkedIn from a fellow trainer. Are they missing the point? So I thought I’d ask the question!
Here’s the post
Is LinkedIn responsible for making this a great platform, or is it us?
I saw a post the other day from someone bashing LinkedIn because it doesn't do some things that the author felt were missing.
But surely it's us, the users who make this a great platform eh?
with over 830,000,000 people on LinkedIn, the feat to add new features is an engineering nightmare don't you think?
But we can still be here, connecting, engaging and making friends regardless of the lacking features.
It's up to us to help people new to the platform and it's up to us to create content that people like to share and start talking about.
Is it fair to bash LinkedIn?
I'm here to meet new people, make connections and help drive my business. This in turn enables me to guide the people whom I work with to help raise their profiles and ultimately inspire them to grow their businesses too.
There's loads of scope with 830 million people so I will be here showing up and sharing what I can.
What do you think?

THURSDAY 18 August 1,686 impressions
I was a bit stuck today for an idea so used my Monday Nudge email as inspiration! Plus it works well with the sort of things that I talk about.
Here is that post
Did you know that today is Never Give Up Day?
Me neither.
It's got nothing to do with Rick Astley either.
I guess it just reminds us that no matter how hard life is or the goals that you are trying to reach may just be a little too stretching, we shouldn't give up.
I'm not talking about flogging a dead horse (that's an old English saying do we have a better one?). In those cases, we should know when to give up.
But what about those goals that you set a few years ago and it feels like you are not making any progress?
What about that weight that had gone is now coming back? Or what about your plan to increase prices but you've found excuses not to keep going?
PAUSE. Take a BREAK.
Then get back to it. But do not give up.
Maybe you need to re-visit those goals or look at what you were doing before you lost your way.
Don't give up, re-group and jump back on that horse!!
What are you contemplating about giving up or how have you overcome those thoughts?
We've got this!!

FRIDAY 19 August 1,564 impressions
I had my first ever one-off workshop today. My normal workshops are over 5 days for just 15 minutes per day. This workshop gave all the same content but in one session. I have never tried it before and I still offered my Money Back Guarantee.
As you can imagine, I was a little worried, because I care.
Here’s my post. Just in case you wondered, it went well! Check out the post to see the lovely comments from some of the delegates.
Do you ever start the day with TREPIDATION?
𝑵𝑶𝑼𝑵 ~ 𝘢 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘧𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘹𝘪𝘦𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯
For me today is the day. 🤢
Today I am jumping right outside my comfort zone 😱. With both feet!
As the 15-Minute Guy, my daily workshops are normally just 15 minutes long.
But following a conversation with someone who said that every day for a week is quite a commitment, I am trialling a single session.
I have built this workshop so that this person could join today and get more from this incredible platform. 🥳
💎 Not 15 minutes
💎 Not 30 minutes
💎 Heck, it's even longer than an hour!
I am cramming all of my content into a 90 workshop today and I have some lovely people booked to come and improve their LinkedIn usage to get more leads.
They'll also get the foundations for a Daily Habit.
💎 And an optimised profile.
💎 Plus we'll have some fun.
Although I am a little nervous I am so very excited because this could be another opportunity for people to get more from LinkedIn without having to commit to a session every day (albeit just 15 minutes)
Do you want to know what's funny?
This person whom I've built this for sadly cannot make it. 😂😂😂 But it doesn't matter because I know I have a different workshop.
What are you doing today that makes you a little nervous?

The graph says I am down, but the numbers say differently
Last week 13,876 Impressions and 448 engagements. Seems to me I had a better week this week eh?
Good luck with your content. If I can help please get in touch.
How about a review of your LinkedIn profile? I'll send you a video of me saying what I see when I look at your profile. I'll be honest, but you'll get some great pointers on how you can improve your profile. It's a great starting point and if you like what you see you can book a call with me to discuss how I can help.
All I ask is that you sign up for my Monday Nudge. This is an email that I send each Monday with 5 ideas to help you to create a post on LinkedIn.
