Now is the perfect time to take a look at your LinkedIn profile and make sure it’s reaching its maximum potential. Here are 3 ways you can improve your profile: Your Profile Header Image The header image is one of the first things people see when they visit your LinkedIn profile, and you need to make sure it shows who you are, what you do, and what you have to offer. Use it to show the world what product you sell. Update it to promote your upcoming event. Tell your fans how they can subscribe to your email updates. There are many ways to make the header image work for you… use it to your advantage! Your “About” Section The “About” section of your LinkedIn profile is a tool to show others what you’re all about. Don’t be shy! Tell others all about yourself and what you do. The more information you share about yourself, the better search results you’ll get on Google… more visibility! Your “Featured” Section The “Featured” section, which used to be the “Media” section, is a new update on LinkedIn. This section allows you to feature what’s important to you. Have an event coming up? Add it to your “Featured” section. Just released a podcast episode? Share it in “Featured.” Use this section of LinkedIn to promote what’s important to you. As we’re all stuck at home with little to do, take advantage of this extra time, update your LinkedIn profile, and reap the benefits!   Episode Spotlights: Where to find everything for this week’s episode: karenyankovich.com/114 Introducing this episode’s topic (2:58) Taking control of your personal brand (6:37) Why your LinkedIn header image is important (8:18) What makes a good LinkedIn “About” section (11:31) The value of the “Featured” section on LinkedIn (13:56) Recap of the episode (19:33) Info about Karen’s weekly live webinar (20:31)   Resources Mentioned In This Episode: Learn more about make1ktoday.com Learn more about your5000offer.com Design your header image using Canva Sign up for the She’s LInkedUp program Book a mastermind session with Karen and receive a free consultation plan at karenyankovich.com/apply Join my free Facebook Group if you have any questions about today’s episode   Help Us Spread The Word!
