I want to share something important that most people never think about until it’s too late. When a family member or friend passes away, their LinkedIn profile can keep showing up like they’re still alive. They might still get connection requests, messages, or those annoying “work anniversary” reminders. That can be really painful for the family. Good news: LinkedIn lets you turn the profile into a memorial. It stays up as a nice tribute to their work and achievements, but it gets locked. No one can log in, no new messages, and it shows “In Remembrance” next to their name. It stops all the awkward notifications. Here’s the simple truth: - Anyone (family, friend, or colleague) can report the passing to LinkedIn. You don’t need to be the executor. - Just go to LinkedIn Help and look up “Deceased LinkedIn member” or “memorialize account.” - You’ll need the person’s full name, the link to their profile, their email if you know it, the date they passed, and a link to an obituary if you have one. If you’re the spouse, executor, or legally in charge, you have even more options — you can ask to fully close the account if that feels right. My advice to you: 1. If someone close to you passes, take care of this soon so the family doesn’t keep getting reminded in a hard way. 2. While you’re still here, talk to your family about what you want. Tell them: “If something happens to me, please memorialize my LinkedIn so my work still lives on.” 3. Add it to your will or digital plan — most people forget about LinkedIn. Taking 10 minutes to do this is an act of kindness for the people left behind. If you’re going through this right now and need help figuring out the form, just reply here or message me. I’m happy to walk you through it. Let’s look out for each other. What do you think — have you ever seen an active LinkedIn profile of someone who passed? Drop a comment. Here is one I came across just now. https://www.linkedin.com/in/goldberg99m/

We are having our 7th posting party of 2026 today at 10am EST.. It will be hosted on www.highenergyzoom.com this is a special event we host 25 times a year and our goal is to get to know each other on a zoom call so we can engage more on each others content. Its so important to be part of a meaningful community of people who can support each other regularly and connect with each other in a meaningful way. If you can make it, please join us and share your link in the comments. Bring a friend with you if you are able to so they can benefit.. Imagine having a list of 100 people that you will invite to posting parties in 2026.. even if none of them come you still have invited 100 people and added value to their life. Think about that from that perspective. A few resources we love ot share about how these parties work. Resource 1: When you post a link, make sure its a clean link. We like to share FEED URLS instead of long urls that have UTMs on them. You can clean your link with our Link Cleaner https://evyai.com/url-cleaner/ We created a NEW ONE this weekend.. https://postreviewtool.com/ <<<< Check out this crazy version. Resource 2: Use the evyAI Idea generator to help you come up with ideas for what to post about. If you dont have an idea, just add a keyword and BOOM 4 ideas appear https://app.evyai.com/idea-generator Once you have your idea, please post a post on Linkedin and share it below so we can comment on your post and give you max exposure. Resource 3: To keep track of all your links, we have something called the BULK LINK OPENER 4, that allows you to quickly paste in all the links and open them in an organized way. You can even use the keyboard shortcut ALT + W to open each one and when you are done commenting try CTRL + W and it will close that window and repeat.. see how fast it goes. https://strategy.evyai.com/bulklinkopener4

Is there an Ask Rick Anything today? I can't seem to join the zoom.
