Apple Podcasts5jessicagoodinUnited States2 years ago - Question and Review:
I love Kady Sandel, she treads the balance of sales and information beautifully. She has been a huge help in developing my career as a graphic designer. My question is can you please cover SCAM Clients in LinkedIn?. It is the one topic I rarely he you speak of and I would be great to hear your advice on how to navigate and or avoid scams.
You are remarkable , I am a huge fan!
