LinkedIn Profile Evaluation
LinkedIn is the world's largest social media site for business networking and making connections as well as looking for jobs or candidates to fill jobs. It now boasts a membership of 120 million which is a 61% growth in less than a year.
I use LinkedIn to generate a large percent of my new business and also make contacts all over the work which helps to build collaborations as well as a personal referral network. I also teach job seekers how to use LinkedIn and other social media platforms to look for work and expand their skills.
Once your LinkedIn profile is at or near 100% complete (by my standards which exceed LinkedIn's) you are ready for the next steps - expand your network, join groups and enter the discussions. But is it 100% complete?
Why not find out for a small investment and some time? I will evaluate your profile based on my years of experience as a sales and marketing professional, Web marketing consultant, human resources manager and adult educator. In addition to my section by section written evaluation form I will put your profile through a Word Cloud generator and show you the results.
Why such a ridiculously low fee when others 'gurus and experts' charge up to $250 per hour? It's an introduction to show you how you can improve. I know you must lay a foundation prior to topping off a new building. I am basically trying to prove my worth to you and see whether there is any synergy between us. If you can self teach and just need a coach, or need regular tutoring. We may both wish to continue working together so I can help you accomplish your goals in being seen and visible on the Web, such as I am.
The main problem I see on the Web and in society in general right now is most have become too greedy and too soft. We therefore feel 'entitled' to everything for free and expect it. Sorry, I learned unless you are an autodidact (self taught individual) as I am, and spend the time to do it yourself, free information and opinions are worthless since most do not act upon it. Been there, done that.
Not an autodidact? Consider this pay as you go higher education, just like college, trade schools or apprenticeships.
