✍️ Stop trying to sound smart
Try sounding human!
Hello,
Welcome to today’s LinkedIn Prompts!
I spend a lot of time on the internet. As a digital marketer, it's kinda my job to be online. And with that, I see a lot and learn a lot, so every newsletter will start with something I found interesting online that I want to share. Some days it'll be a content resource, marketing hack, or a new playlist I’m listening to.
