If you rather read on, here are my tips:

1.) Stop comparing yourself with your competition

Although, it's always good and important to see what they are up to but

a) don't assume they know it all and are doing better than you and

b) don't let yourself slip into Impostor-Syndrome-Land! Write down five achievements in your business, past career or even private life that you can be proud of. Look at it every time you feel inadequate.

2.) Remind yourself that your ideal client will like you just the way you are

You don't have to appeal to everyone! Allowing yourself to be 'ok' with that is liberating and powerful!

3.) Sure, it's a business platform, but the needs of your prospects are PERSONAL

People connect with people, not with a clean, super-corporate identity.

That’s it, my 3 tips for using LinkedIn with more confidence for your business. I hope that they have given you a little boost.

I’d love to hear, so, please, do let me know in the comments.

Ah yes, Imposter Syndrome! Every time I set out for a "real world" networking meeting, I worry that the other people there will be "real" business people and I will somehow be found lacking. And LinkedIn is the biggest networking meeting out there, so its easy to worry about committing thoughts to text. Yet everyone goes to networking meetings with similar aims, and all of us (I think) value authenticity and honesty before over-confident sales patter.? Thanks for the tips, Cecile.
