Is LinkedIn working for your business, or is it just another digital distraction?
In this eye-opening episode of Talking with the Experts, I sit down with LinkedIn strategist and author Daniel Alfon to bust common myths and unlock practical strategies that will completely change the way you think about LinkedIn.
From his early adoption of the platform in 2004 to now mentoring thousands of entrepreneurs, Daniel reveals why most professionals fail to generate leads on LinkedIn—and what to do instead. He introduces his 60-second profile review framework, dives into five high-level myths holding entrepreneurs back, and outlines the exact process to build a steady stream of referrals using LinkedIn.
Daniel also explores the surprising truth about leaving LinkedIn at the right time and how to align your online activity with your real-world business objectives.
This conversation is packed with gold—no fluff, no vague advice. Just real-world, time-saving strategies for leveraging the world’s most powerful business platform.
Whether you're new to LinkedIn or feel stuck in the scroll, Daniel’s guidance will help you:
✅ Review and reposition your profile in under a minute
✅ Avoid the pitfalls that sabotage visibility and credibility
✅ Build a referral system that doesn’t feel pushy or salesy
Tune in if you're ready to stop being overwhelmed by LinkedIn and start using it to grow your brand, reputation, and revenue.
