I completed Liam's masterclass and it delivered exactly what I needed. He reveals the invisible architecture of how LinkedIn actually work, the algorithms, patterns, and mechanics most people miss. Every framework is immediately practical. His AI integration approach is sophisticated and actionable. Liam sees the system that others can't. If you're building authority and want to expand your business on LinkedIn with real results, this masterclass is worth it.
Mariana Saddakni
I attended Liam's boot camp and found it invaluable for becoming facile with both LinkedIn and Sales Navigator. After applying his recommendations over the past few months I'm realizing that the only areas in which I struggle are the areas that I did not fully implement his recommendations. The approach he takes empowered me to build out everything I need to enable and manage my leads connection, engagement and conversion. Liam is incredibly knowledgeable and generous. Worth the investment/
Sarah Marshall
Liam helped me refine my LinkedIn presence and bring more clarity to how I present my work. His suggestions were practical, his “ghostediting” kept my style intact, and he made the process straightforward. I walked away with a sharper profile, better content ideas, and a clearer sense of how to connect with my audience.
Valerie Dufix
As a steadfast DIYer, I opened Sales Navigator and thought, "This seems powerful, but also... what am I doing?" Cue Liam Darmody! Liam doesn’t just teach you how to use Sales Nav. He helps you unlock it with an approach that actually makes prospecting feel doable. What I appreciated most was that in one session, I had clarity on how to use the platform in ways that align with my values and business. Sales Nav will help build your consulting business, and Liam’s your guide! Highly recommend.
Sarena Diamond
I highly recommend working with Liam. He will separate you from the crowd. He takes the time to understand you personally and professionally so you are able to paint an authentic picture of yourself on LinkedIn. His advice and recommendations were eye opening and brought me much needed clarity. Beyond brand building, his overall knowledge/expertise on the platform will open your world to all that LinkedIn can provide to you. Invest in yourself, spend some time with Liam!
Nick Laudano
Liam’s LinkedIn course blew me away. It wasn’t just “post and hope”: he gave a clear, practical roadmap that helped me show up authentically and grow my business. His guidance made Sales Navigator feel approachable, and his strategic networking tips reshaped how I connect online. I left with a stronger profile, real confidence, and a smarter engagement system. Best investment I’ve made in years!
Lilian Santini 🧶
Liam is THE expert in using LinkedIn to build your brand. He has completely unlocked the unknowns of LinkedIn for me. I now feel focused and strategic with how I am using the platform to build my brand, nurture relationships, and fuel my business. Liam offers expertise, but more importantly, he gets to know you personally, understands what you’re trying to accomplish, and invests in your goals through his support. I canNOT recommend Liam enough! Seriously ... stop reading this and reach out!
Chelsea Burns, M.S.
Liam is the real deal. Even though he does not love the term guru, he is for sure MY guru when it comes to this platform. I have taken 3 courses designed around LinkedIn and Liam’s was the most professional set up and was most valuable for the way I want to use the platform.
Ashley Beck Cuellar
Liam knows LinkedIn like few others. I joined his March cohort and highly recommend it to anyone serious about building a personal brand. His approach to strategic networking, thoughtful engagement, lead generation, and using Sales Navigator is next-level. If you’re looking for hacks and vanity metrics, look elsewhere. But if you want authentic growth and genuine strategies? Liam’s your guy.
Brenna Lasky
Just finished Liam Darmody’s LinkedIn Personal Branding & Social Selling course, and… WOW. My profile is now a lead magnet (well, getting closer — that part’s on me), I’ve got a solid content strategy, and I finally understand how to turn LinkedIn into a real business engine. If you’re serious about growth, this is the course - and Liam is your guy. He lives this stuff: tests it, uses it, and teaches it like a pro. Liam… do we get a discount if we take it again? Sometimes, I’m a slow learner...
Dr. Cindy Goodwin-Sak
I had a 1:1 coaching session with Liam on LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and it was a total game-changer. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and down-to-earth, making everything feel clear and actionable. I went from feeling unsure to confident and actually excited to dive in. If you want to optimize LinkedIn for yourself, your business, and your clients, I highly recommend working with Liam. He makes the process feel effortless.
Kristy Mandour
What does it take to build a personal brand on LinkedIn? I lurked and watched and lurked some more. One person stood out, he was genuine, his words mattered and I mean you could see he cared. He was always sharing advice that for a new person on LI was gold. I took the leap, invested in me and the moment Liam and I got on the call it was immediate. The knowledge he shared took the rough clay (me) and molded it into a person who now is proud to say has a personal brand. USE LIAM! Ugh 500 words
Paul McCarthy, CRFP
I participated in Liam’s 4 week Personal Branding Course. Liam is a joy to learn from. He is extremely knowledgeable and packed this course with so many amazing nuggets of information that really make a difference in how to leverage LinkedIn as more than a place to stop by every once in a while for job seeking. He offers tons of great advice for how to optimize your LinkedIn page, how to create content and engage with people to create your personal brand that doesn’t feel pushy.
Joanna Ghayad, PharmD, PCC
Working with Liam has proven to be one of the best investments I’ve made in a while. His depth of knowledge around Brand Marketing, Content Strategy, and Social Media Marketing is exceptional. Beyond that, he is also a genuinely great person and a pleasure to interact with. I highly recommend his services and look forward to working with him again in the future!
Nira Mahesh, PMP, CSM, CSPO
Liam is one of the most effective trainers about using LinkedIn for personal brand development I have ever run across. I recently took a short course with him where I learned a couple of valuable tricks within the first 15 minutes of the first class to make the whole cost of the course worth it. He is attentive, timely, and generous with his knowledge, and brings a Sales Operations spin to his work that goes beyond typical creative/storytelling focused brand development guidance.
Diana Alt
I attended Liam’s Personal Branding and Social Selling on LinkedIn cohort and I thought I knew what I was doing - until Liam taught me so much more. His lessons are not just a bunch of training. He built a curriculum that helps you learn. And he is one of the most caring people you will meet. He gives 110% of his time and efforts to make sure you are learning. There are a lot of people on this platform who have similar programs. Liam’s is the only one you need. 🏆
Paul Carney
I hired Liam for an initial three month engagement. We are going on more than a year now. Not because he didn’t help me accomplish what we set out to do, but because I see the magnitudes of value that I reap from working with him. He is kind, easy going, and incredibly good at his craft. I count Liam as my most important brand asset, business generator, and friend.
Jeremy Barnyak, CFA
Working with Liam was one of the best decisions I made this year. I knew my LinkedIn profile needed improvement but didn’t know where to start. Liam introduced me to tools and strategies that made the process efficient and helped me rediscover my career achievements. He showed me how to craft a clear, compelling story for the market. His expertise and thoughtful approach make him an invaluable partner. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to maximize their LinkedIn presence.
Nick Rockwell
I love working with people who enjoy what they do, and Liam is one of them! His passion for personal branding and LinkedIn oozes through his very being, and his authentic and organic take on the topic is refreshing and approachable. If Liam isn’t already your go-to resource for growing your presence on LinkedIn, you’re missing out! Not only will you learn a thing or two, you might have fun and find your new favorite hot sauce, too!
Angie Callen, PCC, MJSC
I have always had this deep desire to be of service to other people, but I didn’t realize how to expand my reach. I had good luck on LinkedIn just being myself, but there was no strategy. In order to grow I needed to understand how this really worked, and see beyond the daily post. Liam opened my eyes to what this could really be and with his guidance my reach grew. Refining my brand with his guidance has helped me grow my business and made showing up daily on this profile FUN!
Breanne Sprague
Liam was a fantastic partner to learn from! His knowledge about personal branding and how to effectively use LinkedIn to promote your brand is top-notch! He provides tips and tactics that only experienced users have insights to. I highly recommend using Liam if you care about your own success 😉
Brent Chu
Liam Darmody’s course was a game-changer for personal branding on LinkedIn. Packed with insights, it taught me how to use tools like Sales Navigator for lead generation as a small business owner. Liam’s expertise is unmatched, but what sets him apart is his approachability and genuine care. He even offered to help refine my content pillars. If you’re looking for a LinkedIn expert who combines deep knowledge with a personal touch, Liam is your go-to. Highly recommend!
Natasha Tous, MSM
Liam is awesome! He helped me to find my voice on LinkedIn, amplifying reach and impact. Liam coaches with empathy, patience, and strategic insight and transforms visions into achievable goals with practical, step-by-step guidance. I greatly appreciate Liam’s sense of humor, authenticity, infectious energy, and compassion! If you’re looking for support in branding, using your voice, networking, career transitions, or anything LinkedIn, check out Liam!
Wren Mitchell
Liam really goes above and beyond. It is obvious he cares more about helping his clients than anything. He doesn’t pretend to have the algorithm cracked (which is when you know someone is lying - because literally nobody does!) but he DOES spend a ton of time analyzing data and testing different methods to help better guide you! He knows his stuff, goes above and beyond and is just in general, a really fun person to work with and know!❣️
ANNABEL PICKENS
Working with Liam was an outstanding experience! Liam brought genuine care, deep knowledge, humor, and kindness to our work together. His encouragement and perspective helped me reach my objectives quickly. Through our project, I became clear and began planting the seeds to make the impact that matters to me. Excited to work with Liam again to reach the next target!!
Jaime Shearer, MBA, PCC
Liam seemed to really care about my personal success. He reviewed my current LinkedIn presence and gave me tailored recommendations to boost my thought leadership and relationship-building on LinkedIn. I also love how he promotes being genuine and your true self on the platform, both by example and in his advice. I’ve already applied many suggestions and feel more confident about the value of being myself.
Jill Stover Heinze
I have been posting regularly on LinkedIn for about 2 years now - I know that LinkedIn is shifting towards video, but it’s a medium that honestly makes me very apprehensive. Liam recently posted his strategies (including the tools that he uses) - when I posted in his comments that I was apprehensive, he DMd to give me additional tips. Well - his tips really are gamechangers and will save me SO much time in posting content. Liam always shares his knowledge generously with all! He is the best!
Colleen Paulson
Liam was informative, patient and our hour long meeting provided way more value than what he charged. I feel more confident in using LinkedIn and most importantly, appreciate Liam’s authentic approach to community building, lead generation and growing your business in a way that is aligned and authentic.
Brooke Koeninger
Liam was instrumental in activating my lead gen efforts on Sales Navigator. He broke down the steps into simple chapters, taught me how to select the right criteria to craft searchs for my target audience, and ultimately how to track ongoing. He then stayed with me to ensure that I was proficient enough on my own. I throughly enjoyed working with him and now engage prospects more strategically.
Ricki Pasinelli
Back at the beginning of the ear when we launched SpotlightIQ, I had identified LinkedIn as the primary social media platform on which to build awareness. Liam took me through his thoroughly detailed LinkedIn training session and provided ongoing support for the first month. He truly helped me launch a personal branding effort which also led to company activities. Can’t recommend Liam enough for his LinkedIn knowledge and expertise.
Sean Nowlin
When I was looking for a new job Liam transformed my profile into a professional and creative representation of who I am. He helped me widen my network and connect with people and resources crucial for job opportunities. He also taught me how to post and comment on LinkedIn conversations so that I could join and learn from new communities.
MeghanMarie Fowler-Finn
Liam is awesome at connecting other you as a person and catering a style and approach that works for you. I learned a lot from my time with him and feel better equipped to work on personal branding and communication on my own.
John Baker
I connected with Liam a few months ago and quickly discovered he is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to building your business on LinkedIn. Within 1 hour Liam was able to help me establish a stronger profile, dial in how I should spend time serving and connecting with the right ICP, as well as how to use Sales Navigator more effectively. He’s not only tech and strategy savvy, he also does a great job taking time to understand his client’s individual needs. Highly recommend working with Liam!
Kim Breiland
I love Liam’s LinkedIn course. It literally changed how I think about audiences and growth on LinkedIn. Before I took his course, I had a very surface level of simply posting content on LinkedIn (trying to be consistent). But his course, specifically the analytics part, changed my approach. I learned about Fruitful Fans, Dormant Audiences, and Repeat Engagers. I learned how to segment and actually think about audiences. Take the course. It’s fantastic.
Benjamin Watkins
Liam knows his stuff and not only is he knowledgeable, his advice works. Within minutes of our call I was reinvigorated to share content I had been overthinking and had a long term strategy to level up my game with a clear intention and the right tools. The fact that he is also data, tech, and AI-savvy was like chocolate sauce, whip cream, and a pepper on top. Don’t even hesitate. Make an appointment.
Lori Mazor
I recently worked with Liam to learn more about LinkedIn. This guy knows his stuff! He helped me examine my strategy and tweak areas of uncertainty. Liam took the time to listen to my goals and then provided an approach that worked with my workflow. His tips have influenced how I view my presence on LinkedIn and provided a different perspective from when I started. I’ve already seen more engagement with my content and highly recommend Liam to anyone looking to use LinkedIn more effectively.
Susan Carr
Liam is a great resource and coach. We think he is simple one of the best.
Brad Buehler
Liam is world class at what he does! And the best part - he’s a good guy that actually cares about helping you. I can’t recommend Liam enough Grab a time on his calendar right now or you are losing money.
Tim Oyler
Liam was an incredible educator, thought partner, and collaborator in our project together. We learned so much from him and productively worked through both big picture and detailed issues. What a pleasure to work with someone too who is so positive, thoughtful, and curious.
Natalie Dawe
Liam Darmody, our LinkedIn consultant, delivered an exceptional session for our clients. His insights were invaluable, and the engagement from our audience was remarkable. Attendees were fully immersed, taking notes, and asking questions throughout the session. I highly recommend Liam for anyone looking to enhance their personal brand on LinkedIn. He’s not only a fantastic teacher but also a great mentor and friend in the LinkedIn community.
Donnie Boivin
I reached out to Liam after feeling a bit lost post a brand workshop. His guidance helped me regain focus and also provided me with a solid strategy for building my brand. Liam’s expertise in utilizing LinkedIn for targeting my market was a game-changer. What sets him apart is his genuine commitment to seeing his clients succeed; it’s more than just a transaction for him. Moving forward, Liam will be my go-to advisor for all things related to my brand and maximizing LinkedIn for networking.
Ida Mack
There are hundreds probably millions of personal branding “experts” out there, but none like Liam. His scalpel is sharp --with more than visual blades. Coming from operations, and a deep understanding of analytics branding needs to also be accountable to ROI. Liam is a dynamic speaker and LinkedIn leader. He knows the platform cold and always one of the firsts to know what’s new + how to use it. Last week I had a 911 call with Liam and in one hr,crisis averted. HIRE HIM (no questions asked)
Loren Greiff
RUN, DON’T WALK to work with this cool cat. Just one hour with Liam helped me to navigate the wild west that is LinkedIn and to hone my personal voice. He taught me more about this platform in a single hour than in my TEN years using this darn thing. Whether you’re in the process of building a company or building your personal brand, Liam’s down-to-earth, no nonsense jam session is invaluable, educational, and uplifting (to say the very least).
Lauren Hannon
Liam is the absolute best personal branding and LinkedIn expert out there! Professional and insightful. I used his walk n talk service and it was a phone call talking through the main pillars of LinkedIn and personal branding that Liam built as part of his strategy. Hi advice is simple and easy to follow. Highly recommend Liam and definitely will be recommending and using his other services
Andrie Attard
LinkedIn very generously gave nonprofits licenses to Sales Navigator. Our team was so excited, and then a bit overwhelmed. I had attended a presentation Liam had given to execs at Chief, and was wondering if he might teach us about Sales Navigator. Wow, did Liam come through, with flying colors. He taught our global team in real time, using real data. Ask Liam about “social selling” on LinkedIn. His session was terrific!
Ingrid Embree
Liam is incredibly knowledgeable, focused, delivers on expectations, and more. He walks the talk. Come to him with a goal and he will review where you’re at, what’s working, identify the short, mid & longer term opportunities, work in partnership to build your activation plan, and get you started. Whether getting started or established, you will leap forward. Highly recommend!
DANIELLE GUZMAN
Wow! A quick conversation with Liam can change your life! I had the pleasure of speaking with Liam during a LinkedIn Premium member complimentary consultation. I was at a career crossroads, and unsure of which path to take. During the consultation, Liam was able to assess my personality, passions, and take into account my professional and soft skills. Although we only spoke a short time, it was like speaking with an old friend. Liam helped me navigate a new career path vs. a job, while also boosting my confidence in myself and the new venture. Be sure to schedule a counseling session today, as his weekly calendar fills up fast!

When I think of Liam Darmody, I think of two things: ** All things (authentic) personal branding ** Thought Leader Liam is a tremendous wealth of knowledge and is one of my very top go-to LinkedIn gurus because he keeps a pulse on all the shifts and changes that drive many of us crazy. He is a calm, steady voice among the swells of complaints and is a prime example of “slow and steady wins the race.” Liam has also been a great thought partner and a person I have relied on to work with my clients when they are ready to unleash their own thought leadership strategy. He gives the kind of long-term support people need to stay encouraged, with a healthy dose of the reality of what they are trying to accomplish to be seen, heard, and to establish their authority.
Gina Riley
Liam is a class act in every walk of life ... from family 1st, present parenting and dialed in friendship ... all are paramount to him and that is how he treats his clients, exactly the way he’d want someone to care for those he cares about. He takes you by the hand, arm around your shoulder and walks you gently through the landscape of building your brand and jumping into LinkedIn in a fashion that is not scary but welcoming, not daunting but doable. Working with Liam is fun and I’d give him my highest professional and personal recommendation.
Kerry Connor
Liam Darmody absolutely crushed it at the Badass Business Summit. When I decided to put together a LinkedIn panel, I set my sights on some incredible people. I had Liam Darmody, Melissa Cohen, and Kevin Turner on stage, each bringing their own strengths and unique perspectives. Liam brought his trademark raw authenticity and genuine style of speaking that had the audience leaning in and fully engaged. It was an absolute honor to have him on stage, and I’m incredibly proud of how he showed up, not just with his words, but through his bold actions throughout the entire summit. Liam, thank you for pouring into the audience and making a lasting impact. It truly means the world to me. — Donnie Boivin, CEO of Success Champions Networking and Founder of the Badass Business Summit.

Liam was such an inspiration for the Accelerator Job Search group today. He spoke about the importance of creating a personal brand on LinkedIn using that brand to gain visibility and engagement. I have received great feedback from the participants and hope that Liam will return to speak with the group again soon. Thanks, Liam, for sharing your wealth of knowledge! Warm regards, Mindy
Mindy Stern SPHR
If you’re looking to learn, grow or expand your personal brand on this platform there’s no better option than Liam. His insights are right on and crazy timely. Liam will update on changes coming to LinkedIn before anyone else is talking about them. He’s dialed in on all things LinkedIn with one purpose…to help you grow. But… There’s a more high value piece than all the LinkedIn stuff in working with Liam. He’s an amazing person. He’s kind and has a great sense of humor. He’s as real as they get. He ultimately cares about you and your success. Liam has been essential in helping me grow here. He’s been even more essential in helping me grow as a person. His insights make me reflect and think about doing things the right way. If you’re serious about learning how to grow here…Liam should be one of the first people you talk to…you won’t regret it!

Liam is one of the most knowledgeable, authentic, inspiring, and helpful experts you’ll find on LinkedIn. I love following his content and learning from him and I know he provides a ton of value to everyone he works with.
Andy Storch
I am truly honored to write this recommendation on behalf of Liam! We originally connected on LinkedIn and since the day I met him I always admired his passion, thought leadership, and detailed understanding of the LinkedIn platform. He’s one of my personal Top Voices here on LinkedIn. Not sure you’ll find a more genuine, kind, and real person in your life. If you’re an executive or brand looking to level-up your personal brand here on LinkedIn, I seriously can’t recommend him highly enough!
John Kraski
In actuality, LIAM taught me but there are not enough options on LinkedIn to represent that! I’m part of LIAM’s LinkedIn community and want to leave this recommendation as proof of the impact he makes everyday on the lives of others, aside of any functional role, leadership responsibility, or client assignment. I feel very lucky for being in his orbit and for everything I learn from LIAM about branding, career, impact, and how to be a successful content creator on LinkedIn. I’m sure I speak for many whom I also see engaging with LIAM is such a positive light!
Dr. Lindsay Ruiz
I had an amazing walk and talk session with Liam. Everything that came out of his mouth was insightful and valuable. He is thoughtful, conscientious, and thorough. He gave me much more than I asked for or anticipated. Liam’s an A+ over-deliverer! Not only that but he’s also super fun to talk to. A+ in the personality department! I will definitely work with him again.

If you want the formula on Linkedin and Personal Branding, Liam is your person! Liam exudes passion in talking about personal branding and Linkedin. He breaks it down to simple terms and a formula/pillars that you can make your own. He listens, cares and above all is beyond professional in delivering custom solutions to whatever your question/concerns are. He provides feedback and above all steps on making it work for you. Don’t hesitate to reach out to him. He is personable and knowledgeable and can help you in ways no other linkedin/personal branding person can (I fully mean this).

Ryan Glover
There are many gurus or branding strategists all over LinkedIn, but none of those I know comes close to Liam‘s genuine, kind and sincere approach. He is fully focused on delivering value, and lives & breathes a 0 expectation mentality even if that means missing out on some money. All in all, a great guy to talk with and no matter how much you think you know about branding - I can assure you Liam has something new for you in his repertoire.

Lauren Hannon
It is my pleasure to recommend Liam. Our first encounter was at a virtual LinkedIn personal branding workshop by my women-powered networking group CHIEF. Immediately, Liam’s insights stood out as distinct, due to his deep understanding of the platform’s intricate back-end mechanics. His straightforward, no-nonsense approach coupled with honest reflections on the work and commitment required to garner meaningful results struck a chord with me. Subsequently, I decided to have a one-on-one session with Liam, which turned out to be a refreshing conversation to made me realize the mental investment I needed to put in creating and promoting my brand for someone like myself who has invested almost 3 decades doing it exclusively for others. His astute guidance and constructive feedback on my posts were eye-opening. Furthermore, he helped me comprehend the challenges associated with employers’ perception of increased LinkedIn activity and personal brand-building, thereby allowing me to navigate this path better. Above all, Liam encouraged me to break down my inhibitions and fear of appearing showy, urging me to authentically present myself on the platform. His expertise, empathy, and honesty are valuable assets that could significantly elevate any individual or company’s LinkedIn presence. Whether you’re a newbie to LinkedIn or an experienced professional aiming to optimize their personal branding efforts, I confidently vouch for Liam as a source of unique insight and guidance.
Carmen Boon, M.A.
Liam is the best. Whether you’re getting started on your LinkedIn journey and figuring out your profile, or defining your objectives and content strategy, or trying to elevate your existing performance on LinkedIn, or digging into and understanding your analytics, or looking for a hands-on expert to turn you into a powerhouse....look no further. I’ll add that if you are an executive looking to work with someone who truly gets it and can build you a C-Suite program, Liam truly excels in that space. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Liam in a few different capacities. I am impressed with his knowledge, skills, work ethic and ability to truly enable people to use the information and tools he equips you with to reach ones goals. Plus he’s an amazing person all around!
DANIELLE GUZMAN
Following Liam and engaging with him has been transformative for me and my personal brand. His guidance elevated my content strategy, broadened my reach, and grew my follower base. His hands-on, professional and innovative approach encouraged experimentation with diverse formats, ensuring a dynamic and effective online presence. Also, seeing him as a role model, I created a similar product to his Walk’n’Talk sessions and now I can easier monetize my personal brand.
Janina Vinklere
I reached out to Liam Darmody for LinkedIn advice after being laid off, and I couldn’t be more thankful for his help. His insights into using the platform effectively were spot-on and really helpful in a tough time. Liam knows LinkedIn inside and out, and it shows. He gave me straightforward, practical tips that made a real difference. More than that, he was supportive and understood exactly what I needed. Big thanks to Liam for his timely and valuable advice. Highly recommend him to anyone needing guidance on LinkedIn – he’s got the know-how and a great way of sharing it.
Robert Calhoon
Liam presented the LinkedIn branding strategy at the CHIEF event. His talk was highly resourceful and impactful. I recommend Liam’s branding strategies for anyone planning to increase their network on Linkedin and meaningfully connect and influence others.
Srujana Kaddevarmuth
A consulting session with Liam goes beyond learning best practices for your brand - he is genuinely passionate about helping others and it shines through in the way he works with you. Before the launch of his Brand Stand, Liam and I worked for the same company. Even then, he went the extra mile to help others by providing workshops, resources, and kudos for those interested in creating content for LinkedIn. He has a good eye for an individual’s strengths and weaknesses when approaching their digital presence; I was impressed with the way he grew a community of content creators within the company. Liam and I reconnected after I broke the news of my layoff to my network. For no cost, he provided a session discussing how I could approach my online brand while on the job hunt. His advice was not only well-informed but it also offered perspectives that helped me understand how I could approach my online brand in a way that was compatible with my own needs. Highly recommend connecting with him for those looking to improve their brand strategy!
Emily Lin
I just had a session with Liam on, LinkedIn Sales Navigator. He shared ways it could help me with generating leads. He answered all my questions and provided valuable search information. I look forward to putting the knowledge to work and reporting back with some positive news because I have no doubt we will find success with this new information. Thank you Liam!
Stacey Dobis 🐼
Liam gave a talk as part of a group I’m a member of. Liam’s presentation style was really clear and engaging and he really knows his stuff! The group challenged him with a few questions which he was able to answer with depth and ease. I have to say - I loved Liam’s slides too! Thank you Liam - I highly recommend you as a speaker! 💜
Sarah Clay
There is an art to injecting personality and humanity into social platforms, to make recruiters, salespeople, and leaders more approachable and engaging without resorting to Instagram challenges or posting pictures of their kids. Liam is a master at that art. He helps you define your goals and provides guidance well within your personality to reach those goals. He’s not going to recommend you share pictures of you in a chicken outfit just to get likes, but how to build a strategy that positions professionally, and the tips and tricks within platforms like this one to maximize value. Whether you need help focusing how people see you, or a start-from-scratch strategy, Liam’s advice is priceless.
James Ellis
Liam has helped me — and so many of us at WillowTree — not only share organizational content and post regularly about why this is a great company... he’s also helped us as individuals understand how to share our individual experiences and expertise and ultimately build community within our workplace and across our industry. Liam is a wizard when it comes to the LinkedIn platform specifically, but more importantly he cuts through the bullshit and helps individuals and organizations find and derive meaning from what we do all day, more deeply connecting our home/personal lives with our work experiences, and vice versa. Incidentally, he’s also a really nice guy.
Adam Nemett
Simply put - Liam is a rockstar. He’s one of those people that you meet and you instantly know you’re going to like him. He brings an absolutely incredible energy and infectious enthusiasm to his work. I always look forward to working on projects with him as he provides a unique and creative perspective. He is someone that you go to when you’re stalled out and need an influx of creative energy. He is incredibly helpful and always willing to lend a hand when needed. It’s truly a pleasure to work alongside Liam!
Amanda Quinn Horner
I worked with Liam for over 4 years. In that time I witnessed him mature from a junior grade manager into an exceptional executive. Liam’s work ethic is his foundation. He prides himself on his relentless will to deliver objectives with a business owner’s mentality. He’s a brand ambassador with a passion to clearly direct while ensuring his staff knows how they are contributing to the mission of the business. As a result the integrity and culture of his teams were always extremely strong. One of his greatest skills is talent acquisition. He hired some of the best people in our organization. There’s no question hiring well is important but it’s only part of the formula. He’s also a thoughtful strategist who can direct a team while being an active collaborator. In other words, he hires well and knows what to do with them once they’re in the building. All that said, I think the thing I appreciated the most about Liam is his thirst to learn and get better. He’s a humble leader who is always looking to improve. Not exclusively for his own professional development but more to benefit those he has the privilege to lead. I loved that and it’s why he became so successful so quickly. I miss this guy and I know whoever has the pleasure to work with Liam will see how good this multidimensional leader performs and how much respect he commands.
Sean Quill
For the past two years i’ve had the distinct pleasure of working alongside Liam. He is an extremely dedicated and motivated professional who puts him whole heart into his work. Liam is a strategic thinker, and a strong project and people manager, but what sets him apart and makes him a truly fantastic coworker is his passion and emotional intelligence. Liam conducts himself with humility and kindness which endear him to everyone across the organization. He is respected and loved not only for having worked tirelessly to build the company from the ground up but for doing so with a true spirit of collaboration. Many people can scale a business, few can galvanize those around them, inspire passion and develop meaningful relationships in the process. Liam is one of those special few.
Rachel Lubin
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Liam in a few different roles at LivingSocial and I continue to be impressed by Liam’s ability to manage through highly dynamic periods of change. Starting from a operational position of strength and force, he was able to drive results no matter what obstacles he faced; an innate aspect of Liam’s perseverance. He was critical to the company’s scaling efforts, navigating a rapidly growing organization while balancing the operational complexities of a young industry and company. That experience, handling all aspects of the business, has allowed Liam to develop a keen sense for efficiency, not only in operational process but in product, sales, and revenue management. Liam is also one of the best managers I’ve worked with and has a knack for finding and developing some of the most dedicated and talented people I’ve seen. His passion and commitment to the work is why people enjoy working with Liam on a wide range of initiatives. His passion and commitment to his team and colleagues are what set him apart as a leader.
Sunny Regulapati
It was a pleasure to have Liam on my International Business Operations & Strategy Team at LivingSocial. Simply put, Liam get my highest recommendation and I hope we get a chance to work together again. Liam has three traits that are simply invaluable to any organization and helped our Team drive results across the international enterprise: 1. Focused on solutions that drive impact. Liam was my point person who spent significant time across our international offices and analyzed international processes across sales & operations and identified scalable solutions to help improve our international businesses. He never came to me with a problem that he hadn’t already developed a few options to solve it. 2. Hustles and executes. Liam is always looking for ways to improve the organization. Once he develops a strategy and the go-to-market, he figures out ways to accelerate the roll-out and makes sure execution goes smoothly given the organizational climate. 3. Optimism and enthusiasm. Liam worked in International during very dynamic times with a high degree of change. His optimism and ability to keep things light enabled him to be an effective change agent and a great person to have on your team.
Robert Mishev
When I first interviewed for a position at LivingSocial, I knew it was a great fit for me when I left the interview and my face literally hurt from smiling. More than anything else, that was due to the energy and enthusiasm Liam brought to the interview in talking about the company and the team that he had built up. From that very first meeting with Liam to the present day, I’ve never seen Liam’s passion waiver. He is always excited about what he’s working on (and who he is working with), and consistently channels his energy into finding creative ways to solve problems and ask questions on how he can make something better. Liam has high expectations for those he manages, but acts in such a way that people are eager to please him. He is a great listener, a thoughtful coach, and, above all, a team player. Because of these and other traits, I am happy to recommend Liam with the highest regard.
Erin Drummond
Liam hired me at a time of incredible growth at LivingSocial. While it would have been easy for a manager in his position to let senior team members take ownership of training and acclimation, Liam was hands on manager in the best possible way. Without his guidance at the beginning of my time at LivingSocial, my career path would not have taken off in the way that it has. Now that his own position and path have evolved, Liam continues to be a positive influence and contributor to many departments in the company. In a world when decisions are made and anything can change in the blink of an eye, Liam is truly talented when it comes to prioritizing, streamlining, and disseminating information among multiple groups in a way that is understandable to each. He is an excellent communicator and quick to act when efficiency is at stake. Liam is always aware of the big picture yet remains in touch with day-to-day processes, giving him a holistic view of operations and a great vantage point from which to offer creative solutions to problems. Liam has high expectations for those he manages, but acts in such a way that people are eager to please him. He is a great listener, a thoughtful coach, and, above all, a team player. Because of these and other traits, I am happy to work with him in any situation. Liam would be a valuable asset to any team and brings with him fantastic people skills.
Lauren Spath Luhring
Liam was the “go to” guy at RHG. Several times management asked him to fill difficult roles where there was an immediate need. In doing so, he demonstrated his ability to quickly get up to speed and work with people at all levels in the organization including senior management. Liam has a knack for juggling multiple internal customer needs; responding quickly and making each person feel as though they are a priority. He easily navigated a rapidly changing environment, while always maintaining his positive attitude and willingness to do whatever is necessary to get the job done.
Victor Block
Liam has been an outstanding colleague as well as peer. During our time at Revolution I have seen him take on increasing responsibilities and roles. He has excelled at all of them, while remaining a great personality in the office. From Recruiter to Product Manager, to the head of HR for a company with over 200 employees and 3 satellite offices, Liam’s experience, maturity and overall aptitude to learn quickly far exceed his age. He’s been a great peer and would be an integral addition to any team.
Chad Crutchfield
Liam was pulled into a project I was on a Revolution Health. He was given a role that was completely new to him, and like nothing he had done before. In no time at all, Liam had mastered the complex processes involved, coordinated with all of the stakeholders and taken control of everything asked of him and more. At the time I was surprised how well things worked out. But I soon realized that Liam takes on all new challenges with the same fearlessness, dedication to the product and team and attention to detail. He delivers more than expected and is eager to keep things moving forward. He’s easygoing and fun to work with, and yet is still professional as can be.
Rip Shaub
Liam is a quick-to-learn, hardworking and honest individual who is always ready to lend a hand. No matter the role, it’s clear he devotes himself 100%. More importantly, he brings charisma to the office. His optimistic disposition is a pleasure to be around and I would be thrilled to work with him in any situation. Liam would be a valuable asset to any team and brings with him fantastic people skills.
Doris Nester
Among Liam’s many personal and professional characteristics that make him someone you want on your team, I believe the most salient are his willingness to jump into any task with one hundred percent focus and attention and his good humor and attitude while doing so. I saw this time and time again when Liam was a member of my extended product team and was required to learn new tasks quickly and execute them flawlessly within extremely tight time constraints. Liam always got the job done well, and he always did it with a smile, which was very valuable to the team as a whole. In short, Liam’s a genuinely great guy and a true professional.
Shawn Traylor
I was fortunate to work with Liam on many projects at Revolution Health. Liam is the type of employee that I would wish to have on any of my teams, regardless of the project. He is extremely intelligent, has a fast learning curve, and is always enthusiastic in learning new technology or subject matters. He is a true value to any team.
Dan Miller
Liam is a great guy to have on your team. I hired him fresh out of college and watched him grow into a successful young professional very quickly. One thing that stands out about Liam is his desire to contribute innovative ideas to the team. I could always go to him for a fresh perspective on ideas for improving the way we did business and that was a very valuable asset to have as a manager. I believe Liam has a very bright future ahead of him!
Ian Jones
Liam has the right motivation to survive and thrive in any environment, making himself indispensable in no time. He is a team player, who does not turn down the chance to work and grow his skill-set outside of his job description or comfort zone. It would be my pleasure working with him in the future.
Anthony Via
Liam Darmody was instrumental in creating, implementing, maintaining and communicating integrated project plans across multiple RHG business units. He is a capable and talented project manager, and was very productive in the rapidly changing business environment of a large scale Web 2.0 health portal. Our professional interactions were clear, precise and effective. I recommend Liam as a skilled project manager to any project requiring quick thinking, good planning and technical expertise.
Aleksey Miroff
Liam is terrific - a great colleague who is organized, proactive, friendly and tenacious. These traits will serve him well in his career at Revolution Health, as well as any position and any company.
Claudia Dragun
Liam has great acumen and an uncanny ability to turn out high quality work under the tightest of time frames. In addition to his business skills, he’s also a very personable and fun loving guy.
Mark Chasse
Liam is a focused professional who will do all of the little things that many promise, but few actually do. You can count on followups, prompt replies, and accurate information. Its always a pleasure working with him.
Jack Dempsey
Liam was one of the hardest working members of our DC ettain team. An exceptional team player, he was always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. He’s passionate and great attitude were just a few of the many attributes he brought to the team. Meticulous to a fault, Liam is the guy I went to whenever I needed something done thoroughly, quickly, and right. I’d love a chance to work with him again and am confident he will continue to be an asset to any team he’s part of.
Harold W. Russell
Liam has been called upon to play a variety of roles at Revolution Health Group, and he has impressed me throughout with his great can-do attitude, willingness to learn, and team play. He is the classic go-getter. I recommend Liam highly, particularly in any role requiring great people skills.
Larry Cynkin
Liam has an unending positive attitude and remarkable determination. He was repeatedly forced to learn new skills on short notice and with little help from others to complete projects, often requiring him to work late into the evening, but he still always lights up the room with his presence. I would be delighted to work with Liam in any setting.
Lauren Larsson
Liam is very bright and picks up ideas quickly. He has shown the ability to take on various different roles that were required at the time, from recruiting to content generation to product management. Liam’s excellent work ethic and good humor make him a great colleague.
Doug Ramsay
I highly recommend Liam Darmody! He always goes the extra mile to make sure he is doing the best job possible. For example, as an IT Resource Specialist at ettain group, Liam wrote to his candidates and asked them, “What makes a great recruiter?” and tailored his recruiting efforts to their response. When I first started at ettain group, Liam trained me. He would stay late to practice role-play exercises with me and always provided great advice to all the recruiters. His dedication and enthusiasm motivated every recruiter in our office.
Lauren Merryman
I have worked closely with Liam over the last years, and I worked with many recruiters new to the industry. No one I have ever worked with or mentored has ever picked up on the nuances of the staffing and recruiting industry as quickly as Liam. He inherently understands honesty with candidates, and manages technical recruiting as though he himself had a technical background. Liam has a dedication and passion for his work that is truly the litmus for whether someone will succeed as a recruiter - he will be going far. I’d strongly recommend anyone to work with Liam if they want the TRUE candidate experience.
