LINKEDIN DAY 4

GATHER & SHOWCASE RECOMMENDATIONS

Review your profile constantly to ensure it is updated and make changes as necessary. Many of your connections follow you and profile changes or updates will show up on their home page. This is a good way to stay linked without a direct contact. Another way for your profile to gain exposure is to recommend other professionals and for your contacts to offer a recommendation for you. This should be a long term process and not just a thought for the day!

Action: This week, ask one of your close connections to provide you with a recommendation. Go to your profile page – upper right you will see a link “Ask for A Recommendation”. You are asking for an endorsement which will appear on your profile. As well as providing a recommendation for a close associate.
