## Resource

Postbag Should I delete posts on LinkedIn? Richard G Abrahams: Should I write a newsletter? Mark Lee: Can I target my posts to certain locations? Clip from my UpLift Live 26 talk on "direct messages and algorithmic immunity". I put in around 12 hours of editing time to get the replays ready, and we have about 17.5 hours of content in total now available over the past 3 years of the conference. Get your replay ticket Social Insider report on document post engagement rates Look out for messages saying "Email not reachable" and "Update your email to ensure you don't lose access to your account" – they're legitimate messages but seem to be associated only with LinkedIn accounts that have Gmail email addresses. Hopefully, this is a temporary issue only. Ryan Roslansky's book: Open To Work released Solo and small business owners : join the Espresso+ community to improve your LinkedIn and online presence.
