I'm offering advisory services to clients across different markets including the UK and I collect basic contact information (name, job title, company, work email).

I've drafted a basic privacy notice based on UK GDPR requirements but I'm unsure if that's sufficient given that my clients come from different countries.

So my question is: Is UK GDPR compliance enough as a baseline for a freelance consultant with a global client base? Or do I need to consider additional requirements depending on where my contacts are based?

Any suggestions or have you face a similar situation? Happy to know, would be really helpful.

I started posting on LinkedIn in 2024 after reading that if you want to grow you need to show up and actually post because before that I was not interacting at all zero.

At the beginning I tried posting daily just to build the habit and be present and my first post actually got some interaction probably because I had been inactive for years but after that it dropped a lot sometimes 0 likes sometimes 1 or 2 and that discouraged me.

I was posting things I genuinely find valuable not random content but reflections from my experience things about adaptability, management, transformation, organisations insights from interviews or books things that I think are useful in real life not just surface level.

But...still very low engagement...

So I reduced the frequency first once a week then once a month sometimes twice a month depending on the topic because honestly I have other priorities (job) and I cannot justify spending that much time and energy...

What I also noticed is that on LinkedIn a lot of posts that feel very simple or even superficial get more likes 20 30 or more while more thoughtful or analytical posts (my field) do not seem to get much attention.

I am not interested in posting selfies or personal lifestyle content I prefer sharing ideas or analysis (systems thinking, real case studies, organisational dynamics, strategy insights, and book recommendations for business and personal growth), but sometimes I feel people just do not want to read or go deep even when I try to keep things shorter because I usually write long form.

So now I just post when I feel like it something that genuinely interests me but I am still wondering...

Is it my network?
Is it positioning?
Is it the level or style of my content?
Or is this just how LinkedIn works?

Curious to hear similar experiences. Thanks!
