Was recently reading some comments on LinkedIn and I had to laugh….

“I stopped cold calling and using content marketing over 10 years ago…. “

“The clever people have been using social for over 10 years … “

Not sure if you have heard the saying, but, “nobody likes a smart arse”. In real life or on-line.

I know you want to come across as somebody that knows what they are talking about, but being a smart arse isn’t big or clever.

Think about it.

You are at a dinner party and somebody dominates the conversation, they don’t listen to what other people say, they push their agenda and the subjects they want to talk about.
