Crashing out on LinkedIn

We decided to practice what we preach last week and take a day off. But we're back! And this week we're talking about the absolute absurdity that is LinkedIn right now: people treating it like Facebook, writing novels about their personal lives, sharing made-up stories about their kids that taught them X Things About B2B Marketing, and don't forget the ol' humble brags.

We go over a list of LinkedIn archetypes and come up with examples of each (way too easy, if you ask us). Then, we end with a deep dive into the subreddit r/LinkedInLunatics; sharing the most insane (read: cringeworthy) posts and giving tips on how to keep LinkedIn profiles professional...ish.

In this episode:
