EP20 - Getting permanently banned on LinkedIn with Mike Mcgann

Mike Mcgann. Founder. Content Creator. And the latest person to be permanently banned from LinkedIn. If you're a regular on the platform there is a good chance you've come across Mike. His sarcastic, tongue in cheek content is both funny and accurate. But his permanently ban has highlighted serious issues around the platforms policing and also raises questions around how - and where companies and people should be marketing their businesses online. Our conversation was epic, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did recording it. Find IAMProductions here: https://iamproductions.studio/ Find Vincere here: https://www.vincere.io/chrisoconnell 

EP19 - Building Influence On LinkedIn with Craig Brookes

Craig Brookes -  Craig Brookes isn't everyone's cup of tea. And that is just the way he likes it. Craig's stratospheric rise to an influencer on LinkedIn has come off the back of his no BS approach to all things life and business... and sharing those thoughts on the platform. Craig has proven that you don't need to be preachy, or corporate - or even talk only about business to build a personal brand on LinkedIn - you just have to have the confidence to be yourself. I hope you enjoy listening to our conversation as much as I enjoyed having it. Find Craig here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-brookes-24176310b/ Find Vincere here: https://www.vincere.io/chrisoconnell

EP17 - Befriending Your Mental Health with Jordan Wilson

How does a working-class lad from Preston, end up sitting down at Kensington Palace with the future king of this country? By being himself. Jordan Wilson was featured in the documentary Prince William, Football and Our Mental Health. But the documentary only scratched the surface. Jordan is a 28-year-old, CEO, entrepreneur and Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2021 finalist. And in my opinion, a role model to anyone who has ever felt like they didn’t fit in. In our chat, we spoke about Jordan’s upbringing, his business and why he believes we need to embrace our poor mental health. Find Jordan here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jdnwils/Find Vincere here: https://www.vincere.io/chrisoconnell
