LinkedIn is a great place to meet and engage with business professionals and prospects. It’s also a search engine with 200 million members. And that’s where people go first to search, to find information about you, or to find someone who offers a specific business product or service.
In this world of constant distraction, you only have a few seconds to make a good impression, to stand out and to capture someone’s attention. If you want to be found on LinkedIn, just listing your resume isn’t good enough. You have to tell people what you do, how you’re unique and how you can provide a solution to meet their needs.
You have to describe yourself in the right way to optimize your linkedIn profile and make sure your name shows up when people search for what you do. Optimizing your linkedIn profile can take a lot of time and energy unless you know how to do it correctly.
