One of the things that you’ll hear me often say is that, “LinkedIn is the billboard of your professional branding.” It’s always out there actively working on your behalf to secure interviews. One of the things that is very easy to do and should take you no more then 15-20 minutes is to create a Background Image.
If you look at professional advertising and billboards they have very nice images behind the words. What I’d like you to do is look at my LinkedIn profile as an example and also I’m going to show you how to create an image that is specifically yours. It’s tailored to something that is of interest to you or the professionals you’re trying to attract.
