Hello Friends,
Social Media... just the phrase causes an instant reaction of one sort or another! Entrepreneurs know all too well the challenge involved to keep up with it. We've started a brand new social media campaign this month and we... are... excited! Look for us along with a barrage of LinkedIn Tips to make your life easier on our favorite site. Time is money - we will save you both!™ Let us know what you think - we'd love to hear from you. And please follow our new channels!
We're excited to return to our first in-person conference in 18 months! In October, we'll join the MBA Annual21 in San Diego. We were at their last conference in Austin, 2019, and they've asked us back. Yes, Mortgage Bankers need help with LinkedIn, too!

TIP 1
LinkedIn Pods - Have you been invited to join one? Please don't! These are LinkedIn Members who agree, as a group, to always React, Comment, or Share one another's posts. This creates fake Statistics and their assumption is that this practice will 'trick the algorithms' to increase everyone's Views. (You know, those things we all want more of?!) Well, not only will this not work as planned, but you may find your account Restricted because you have participated. We strongly suggest you review the LinkedIn Professional Community Policies. Stick to what works best to attract more Views: Content that informs and educates from an authentic standpoint that causes engagement.
TIP 2
LinkedIn Stories - If you are using this option, be advised that it will no longer be available very soon. LinkedIn continues to make changes to the site and, in this case, we are told they are working on an improved video feature to be introduced in the near future. Stay tuned...
TIP 3
What ARE all those dots? - As a special bonus, we are sharing a 30-minute webinar loaded with information about 'those 3 little dots' you'll notice frequently on LinkedIn! I hope you'll enjoy this sampling of what we love to do: Share best practices to use LinkedIn more effectively for branding and marketing. That said, I must note a correction at 24:14, as this was recorded in July 2020: I now (unfortunately) very frequently Report 'inappropriate invitations to connect' because so many members think it's okay to blatantly pitch me in their invitation! I'm certain you have all experienced this. Please take 2 seconds to Report the member - it's anonymous - before you hit the Ignore button. This is, by far, the worst way to start a business relationship. LinkedIn prefers professionalism from its members and appreciates your help by Reporting. Enjoy this 30min lesson!

IN THE SPOTLIGHT!
A new development within DW Consulting Solutions is to share a bit more about each employee, in addition to their title, what they do, and how you can work with them. With a quest for authenticity, each month a DWCS Team Member will offer our readers something about their life that may not be known!
This month, I will begin with an opportunity to brag just a bit... about a certain entrepreneur very close to me. My daughter, Sheryl Mazuk, has taken her love of artistry and anime to a new level with Special Vessels. Her specialty is custom orders for hand-painted wine glasses. Think Anniversary, Weddings, Special Recognition, Company Logo, or a favorite Anime, Manga, or pop culture image. Unique and expertly crafted. Am I proud? You bet!! And it's not too early to think about the Holidays. Ask your Millennial about Anime & Manga. :)
