If you’re new to LinkedIn, or you’ve decided that now is the time to start getting the most out of LinkedIn to help you develop and grow your business, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Some people make the mistake of diving straight in, and then wonder why they aren’t getting the results they hoped for. In my experience, only around 2% of business owners actually use LinkedIn the right way. The other 98% risk not engaging, or even alienating their prospective customers. In many cases, that’s because they’ve never been shown how to do it properly! With that in mind, I’ve created a two-part beginner’s guide to LinkedIn. In part 1, I’ll focus on how to create a great LinkedIn profile. I’ll follow up in part 2 with a step by step guide to using LinkedIn to win new business.
