My local Chamber of Commerce asked me to speak at their monthly meeting that they call their Percolator. This was quite an honor since the speakers they have are typically politicians, community leaders, business executives and the like! I spoke about the power of Social Media and how businesses can use it to stay in touch with their clients, find prospects and grow their business.
Here’s the prezi I created for the event:
Anonymity! Remember that? It’s quite hard to achieve any level of anonymity or privacy in this Googley world, but we can try. LinkedIn does allow for quite a bit of privacy if you know where to find it!
I love getting emails from clients and readers asking LinkedIn questions! Here’s the latest question that came in:
“All I can say is WOW! Wonderful job on my LinkedIn Profile!! Now I have a professional profile, thanks so much! I want to recommend you on LinkedIn but how? What is the best way to submit the recommendation?”
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.
First things first… decide what keywords you want to rank for and then pepper your profile with those keywords. Concentrate on these areas: Headline, Summary, Specialties, and JOB TITLE. You want to make sure you add it in multiple places, multiple times. I know, I know! It’s like 1990’s SEO! Here’s the thing, if you don’t believe me, let’s do an experiment.
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. In fact, just within the last few months it reached 80 million users in the U.S. and worldwide. That’s a lot of people! How can you stand out in such a crowd?
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.
A third of adults think spectacle-wearers look more professional, while 43 per cent think they appear more intelligent.
You might not get a date like Dorothy Parker said, but at least you will get hired! 🙂
YOU want to connect with ME?!?
Yesterday evening I received an invitation to connect from an old colleague. Nothing unusual about that, right? Wrong. This particular person behaved odiously toward me when we worked together. One of those toxic types. When I saw their invitation come in, I could hardly believe it.
