Join us for an insightful chat with Kate DiLeo, CEO and Brand Architect of The Brand Trifecta, as she shares practical tips for building an authentic brand presence on social media. With a unique background in sales, Kate brings a fresh perspective to brand building on social media. We hear her approach to creating meaningful and real content that reflects her brand voice on LinkedIn and why she chooses to focus on only two platforms for her content.

Kate explains that while it’s easy to get caught up on vanity metrics, social pros need to focus on what really matters – being real and connecting with people.
