5 LinkedIn Mistakes

3rd Person – It is hard to connect with someone talking about themselves, so write in the first person.
1-way communication – Talking AT your network isn’t the best way to build relationships – Engage and talk WITH them.
Incomplete – Minimal info and gaps can lead to questions. Increase your visibility and impact by completing each section of your profile.
Out of date – If you haven’t touched your profile for 5 years, now is the time to review it. Update your profile images and content often to reflect who and where you are now.
Not having one! – Not being found can hurt your professional brand. Make it easy for others to find, engage and reference you. Invest in your digital footprint.
