LinkedIn is a social network with
over 53 million users that enables you to make better use of your Professional network and help the
people you trust in return. It's no secret that LinkedIn is a great placen to network professionally, post
and find jobs, and answer questions and build thought leadership. It isn probably the most obvious way to
identify influential individuals at specific organizations. A search for your target business or title on
LinkedIn will identify people you may already be connected with, either directly or through your
connections. LinkedIn is a great tool to leverage your existing contacts to connect with people and find
potential customers online.

work experience,
schools, and other relevant
information about yourself. People searching for contacts
will make a decision to connect

in your profile. A complete
profile will increase your visibility and help you get found by
employers, recruiters, and

your face and they feel like they
are connecting with a real person.

partners, and
clients. This will speak to your
experience and add to your credibility in your industry
