About this episode

Should you ever repurpose an old post on LinkedIn?Short answer: yep. Slightly more annoying answer: it depends. Before you copy, paste, and send that post back into the wild, figure out why it flopped the first time. Was it actually a good post the algorithm didn't push out? Or was the post itself a little off? Those are two very different problems. In this Story Snack, Stacy gets into how she decides which posts deserve another shot, which need a tweak first, and which she'd leave alone.
