info_outlineDiscover the 3 key things you need to think about to attract the right people and the right opportunities to your LinkedIn profile.
First you have to get the basics right in your profile. The show starts with a brief overview of the 7 essentials (explored in more detail in episode 013) i.e. your photo, your headline, your summary, your experience, recommendations, groups and connections.
Once you have created a powerful LinkedIn profile, you need to focus on 3 key things:
- Strategy
- Consistency
- Authenticity
Discover what you need to consider to create an effective strategy, what is important about consistency in terms of brand and showing up, and finally how authenticity doesn't give you licence to share everything. Authencity is raising your awareness and being more mindful that what you share says something about you.
