Spicy LinkedIn Tip to Mix and Mingle this Holiday Season

Network Like a Pro

Networking - you either love it or hate it! Check out these Pro Tips using LinkedIn to maximize your valuable (limited) time when networking with business owners, partners, and funders.

No Business and Personal LinkedIn Profile?

STOP whatever you are doing immediately and create both a personal profile and a business page. Start building the network and posting today.

If you're a founder, if you do not have a personal profile AND a business profile on LinkedIn, you are missing out on a HUGE FREE global opportunity to amplify your messaging, reach, partnerships, and increase brand awareness and SALES. 

Have a Business and Personal LinkedIn Profile?

If you do have a personal and business profile on LinkedIn, proceed to the Pro Tips below to maximize this business opportunity.

PRO TIP for Posting:  So easy! 

1. Snap a pic with your new connection(s) at the event

2. Post the pic on LinkedIn with an upbeat comment

3. Tag your new connection "@their name"

4. Tag "@their company/organization"

5. Tag "@your company"

6. Add any relevant #hashtags

7. Add a call to action, if appropriate

PRO TIP for adding connections at networking events: Forget those boring business cards and use your LinkedIn QR code to connect on LinkedIn and message your new contact any time through the platform. We show people this tip ALL the time at networking events.

Check out the LinkedIn QR code below for examples on how to post effectively (and connect with FounderFuego's Chief Learning Officer, Richard Lopez). Be sure to follow FounderFuego at linkedin.com/company/founderfuego

How to find and use your LinkedIn QR code:

1. On mobile, click on the search bar and click on the QR code in the righthand corner.

2. Either have you new connection scan "My code" or click on "Scan" and you can scan their code.
