LINKEDIN:
This is a short blog to help you make your Linkedin profile look presentable to colleagues and possible future clients. Let’s take this very slow. Social media can stress you out if you over-think it, but we can take baby steps to help us get moving down the right path. 

You do NOT need to be a social media rockstar to “Check the block” on a few steps that can help you look squared away.

Linkedin – The Basics – 10 easy steps

Choose a professional name. If your name is not available, add your profession.

Do you have a nice headshot photograph for your profile?

Complete your profile with important information that people should know.

Connect with co-workers, family, and friends. (email them first and ask to connect; this takes time)

Join local groups in your area; add value by participating in conversations.

Linkedin provides 3 free backlinks to help you with SEO (look it up; do it)

Do you have recommendations? Ask for it.

Share very useful content.

Write your own opinions about your industry and post it.

Connect your Linkedin to Twitter, so you will Tweet your Linkedin posts too.

There are 1,000s of things you can do to improve any social media site. The list above will not guarantee new leads for you, but it will ensure that your profile looks professionally updated. 

You'll need to invest about 1 hour per week for professional development to learn, and keep updated with the latest trends. Plan for it in your weekly schedule. This self education can be reading blogs, watching YouTube videos, or actually implementing the new strategies that you've learned. 

Remember, LEARNING is FUN! The more you KNOW, the more you GROW $$$$$$$!! 

We only have 24 hours in one day, let’s use our time efficiently.
