Greetings ~
A month has flown by already - and now, for the?sweet?stuff:
Forget what was and focus on what will be
Even disciplined professionals get side-tracked
Be the example for your team
Resist temptation around the 14th!
Understand that good things take time
Always be grateful for all that you currently have
Remember your thoughts become things... make them good ones
Yield to the idea of having everything you want, because it's possible
Congratulations?to our?CSR corporation of the month:?American Airlines?For the second year in a row, they’re the only passenger airline to be included in the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index (DJSI).

LinkedIn Tips and More
TIP 1 - Contact Info
An SEO (Search Engine Optimization) reminder about the Contact Info section of your LI Profile: Most of the information displayed in that template is?only?visible to your?Connections. Be sure to make it easy for?anyone?who Views your profile to reach out to you and have a CTA (call to action,) in the?About?section: email, tel, and/or website. Sometimes a response to an invitation to connect can take time.?Bonus Tip:?Within the Contact Info template, the combination of an optimized LinkedIn URL and a zip or postal code displayed in the Address field can make a difference when your name is Googled. That combo will help your LinkedIn URL to appear in 1st or 2nd place when people Google your name.
?TIP 2 - Follow up on your New Connections
What do you do once someone?accepts?your Connection request? If you're not doing so already, you should acknowledge them as a new Connection. LinkedIn is all about engagement and sending a brief note of appreciation?(not?a sales pitch)?via LI Message or outside email is always a recommended practice.?Bonus Tip:?Reference something in their profile within your 'thank you' note to make this action even more impactful. This is a prime opportunity to begin the relationship on a professional level.
TIP 3 - Scheduled Posts
This is so cool we're repeating it this month! It's new, and you likely have it by now. As the option indicates, you may write your posts ahead for distribution later from your personal profile.?HOW:?Top of Home page > Start a Post > write your text > attach an image/video/doc if desired > tap the clock icon > choose a date & time >?edit now?if needed - it's your?only?chance! > tap Schedule.
