My local Chamber of Commerce asked me to speak at their monthly meeting that they call their Percolator.

I am often asked my secret to getting profiles optimized for high ranking in LinkedIn search. I am feeling generous today and so here it is, my secret to LinkedIn SEO in 5 easy steps.

You’ve come to the right place if you are in search of finding someone to write your LinkedIn profile for you! If you are a serious business person, Linkedin is not optional.

New research shows that wearing glasses on an interview may get you hired!
Never mind a crisp shirt or a firm handshake. If you want to impress a potential employer, put on a pair of spectacles.
Job hunters are more likely to be hired if they wear glasses to their interview, according to a study.
