Things you will learn in this episode:

* LinkedIn members who go the “personal” route when they post to the timeline may notice increased views and engagement. As a social seller, though, ask yourself: “Does this post further my business goals?” Personal posts can be written with business-building in mind. Sometimes, though, Facebook-like posts should be posted on Facebook only. — Bob Woods

* LinkedIn posts are getting more personal, and while people want to get to know you beyond your business, remember to keep your stories business meeting-appropriate. — Brynne Tillman
