LinkedIn e-book

I have just received the LinkedIn e-book which accompanies the LinkedIn workshop given bij Vincent Smit. The e-book is in Dutch and explains all the hints and tips (and more) in detail and gives some extra tips which were not mentioned in the workshop.
Vincent's tips have helped me to increase my number of connections, and to be of more value for my connections.



Free LinkedIn tips can be found on http://tinyurl.com/gratiszelfstudie (Dutch).
You can buy the e-book on the the web site 'Word succesvol via LinkedIn'.

How to use Linkedin

 I have attended a workshop on how to optimally use LinkedIn. The workshop was given bij Vincent Smit. He explained that you can use Linkedin to draw attention to your profile and capabilities, rather than actively contacting people to ask if they need your skills or expertise. More and more people start using LinkedIn to look for employees, or find people who can solve a problem for them.

To make sure someone finds you in LinkedIn, you must configure LinkedIn correctly.

Some basic tips are:

• Use your full name in LinkedIn.
  This way you are easier to find.
• Put a profile picture on your profile where your face can be seen clearly and people will recognize you when they meet you in real life.
• Change your LinkedIn URL into something more recognizable and memorable.
  The standard LinkedIn URL you get ends with a bunch of numbers. You can change it into something like http://www.linkedin.com/in/mchangsp
  This URL is easier to memorize. You can change your public URL in Account & Settings / Public Profile.
• Visit your Public Profile and check if all items are visible which you want to share. It could be you have entered information, but have switched off visibility in Accounts & Settings...
• Use an email signature like the one at the end of this article.
