LinkedIn has a lot of content every day but do you actually learn something useful from it? or do you mostly use it for networking and work? curious to know how others use LinkedIn.
 
I mainly use LinkedIn for networking, but I often come across useful insights and industry updates that teach me something new without actively looking for them.
 
i use it for work and to gain useful insight about what i am meant to do and for updates
 
I mainly use LinkedIn for work and to find potential clients. Occasionally, I also learn some useful tips and insights from experienced professionals who share their knowledge.

I often use LinkedIn to connect with potential clients, and partly to learn from others because I find the information provided by LinkedIn users to be very honest and helpful.
 
honestly most of the content on there is just corporate cringe and people bragging about basic stuff. you have to filter through so much noise to find anything actually useful. i mostly just use it to keep an eye on industry shifts and see what competitors are up to... actual learning is pretty rare tbh, maybe a good tool recommendation once in a while if you follow the right people.
 
I do but I'm pretty selective. following the right people makes LinkedIn way more useful for learning.
 
Most people use LinkedIn mainly for business networking and news, because the main feed has too much filler, but you can still learn useful things by following real industry experts and reading the comment sections.

How do you find the good industry experts to follow on LinkedIn?

What type of LinkedIn content has actually taught you something useful?

I use it mostly for networking and work. Soon I will also be using it to grow my pest control business.
