If not, this book is for you. I provide you with 18 detailed strategies and writing tips that other “LinkedIn experts” don’t cover. First I tell you how to get found on LinkedIn, and then I tell you how to keep people reading. After all, once you grab the right target viewers -- whether they be clients, prospects, recruiters or potential employers -- what do you want them to see? Certainly the answer is not, “Oh, something I just threw together that may be error-ridden and ineffective.” Yet that’s how many LinkedIn profiles are constructed. In the past year, I have worked with social media experts, business people, recruiters and employers and have identified EIGHTEEN common weak points in LinkedIn profile strategy and content. These errors can be fatal if you want people not just to find your profile, but to continue reading once they do. By following the advice below, you will avoid these errors and create a frequently visited AND highly effective LinkedIn profile.
