How to Create a LinkedIn Profile that Stands Out
If you’re looking for a job the reason to create a great LinkedIn profile is obvious

But there are two benefits for others:
• One if your happy and not looking it’s still important to build your brand
o You never know….what might be out there or when you might need to look for a job.
• If your Hiring, building your brand gets people interested in working for you

Most people’s profiles really are pretty bad so it’s not hard to stand out.

Critical steps to make your LinkedIn profile stand out:
1) Get a Pro Headshot
Image Matters – People connect by seeing the person, they feel like they know you
The first thing anyone who interviews you or interacts in any professional way is look you up. Don’t get cute or artsy. Professional photo means professional takes the picture.

2) Improve Your Headline
The headline is right under your name when you edit your profile. It shows up right under your photo everywhere on LinkedIn when people see you in their search. When people consider connecting with you, and when you reach out to connect with them. A good headline included your current role along with something unique or beneficial about you.
Don’t put thinks like looking for a job. It’s like posting a personal ad that makes you look desperate. This is your marketing tagline so it should be accurate and simple- what’s your promise0

3) Update Your Content
Creating content on your LinkedIn page helps you build your professional network faster Helps connect with people who are more aligned with your skills and career goals.

• Think Key words here, completely fill out your profile.
