Known For

Business owners, freelancers and professionals who want to be more visible and confident on LinkedIn and use it to attract clients rather than chase them. The approach also works for people in employed roles and for job seekers.

In-person meetups take place in Portsmouth and Southsea, and coaching and networking also run online for members elsewhere.

Jodie Goodchild founded Known For after 20 years in sales and marketing, and grew her own business using the free version of LinkedIn. SME Magazine named her Online Business Networking Training Expert of the Year 2025.

She delivers the LinkedIn Made Simple training herself and hosts the monthly live coaching sessions, with guest experts joining for some sessions.

LinkedIn Made Simple Training covers Jodie's core LinkedIn methods in under 40 minutes, and an Ideal Client Workbook helps members get clear on who they want to reach. Weekly accountability check-ins keep members on track between sessions.

Known For LIVE Group Coaching runs monthly online, where members bring questions about LinkedIn, what to post or why their impressions have dropped. The Known For Club meets online for networking and in person in Portsmouth, with no standing up and no 60-second pitch, and The Known For PUB CLUB brings members together in Southsea. Guest sessions have covered selling to large corporations and whether a business should be on Instagram.
