tl;dr: I made a public post on LinkedIn to let people know that I was available for consulting work.

I did something that felt a little uncomfortable. I posted on LinkedIn to tell the world that I needed new clients.

The response was lovely and there should’ve been no trepidation about posting it. It’s a business networking site after all.

A few quick thoughts:

  • It’s both understandable and very silly to have any type of anxiety or fear about posting
  • If you don’t let people know you’re available then how to you expect to get work?
  • If you believe that your work is good, that it provides value, then there should be no shame in promoting what you do
