Perfect example of when I would like to use co-authoring or creation tools with Newsletters!

Issue 47: Twitter Spaces, Communities and Circles Beta with Samantha Kelly (and Hashtags and At Mentions Arrive!)

Screenshot of hashtag and at mentioning feature for LinkedIn Newsletters!

Before we go too far into today’s showcase - I’d like to point out the new LinkedIn newsletter feature to include hashtags and at mentions has arrived!

I was introduced to Samantha Kelly by Chris Strub - Chris had an article entitled “56 Female Speakers You Should Hire in 2019, and Why”

What immediately struck me was how difficult it was going (and would be for others) to connect with all these female keynote speakers on Twitter. I created a list and added these 55 (couldn’t find one profile) to it.

Chris not only noticed and sent me a “thank you” but recorded a short PERSONALIZED video via Twitter. This was a very memorable post for me (and years before I discovered the power of video on these platforms!) just because of the personalization and time he took.

Wow - hope to meet him someday… That day happened in May of 2019 at #SocialROCKConf in Rockford, IL!

Several years later… Twitter introduces Spaces and one of many people I follow - Samantha Kelly - hosts rooms on Twitter Spaces. I had attended a few and she’s a great, welcoming and well connected Twitter user (https://twitter.com/TweetingGoddess)

Samantha on Sunday night notices a LinkedIn Live Audio Event (the beta is supposed to expand to those profiles using Creator Mode) that I post to share some thoughts about Twitter Circles and Communities - two betas on the platform that I have access to.

Samantha immediately retweets on Twitter and reshares my post on LinkedIn. Soon she is introducing me to her connection Louise Lally People Training and Coaching Consultant !

I didn’t grab a screenshot of Louise in our Audio event, but listeners can raise their hand to participate. Next Roy Kowarski joined us and we not only discussed the Circles and Communities beta, but Spaces and Twitter in general and lots about LinkedIn.

This is what I love about Twitter and LinkedIn - notes or links online can turn into conversations (messages, audio and/or video) and can eventually build into business relationships! There were only four of us in this #LinkedInAudioEvent but as Betsy Weber and Laurie Pottmeyer (as well as hundreds of other MVPs say) #CommunityRocks

Now back to the power of video. Roy does the same thing Chris did all those years ago.

I can thank Louise and Roy for connecting using a photo, video or audio clip!
