IGGA Insights: LinkedIn for Investigative Genetic Genealogists

About the Presentation

Your digital footprint is often the first impression a potential client, agency, or partner has of you. Whatever career stage you are at, LinkedIn is an underutilized tool that can help you establish professional credibility, build trust, and open doors to new opportunities. This practical, actionable session cuts through the noise of generic social media advice to deliver a LinkedIn strategy built specifically for the IGG professional. We will break down how to craft a profile that respects the unique privacy and confidentiality boundaries of our industry while still powerfully projecting your investigative expertise.
