1: Start with Research
• Think about what messages appeal
to your industry. Make note of
keywords, phrases; write down ideas
for your own profile.
• Check out a variety of profiles from
your network - see the ways you can
present yourself.

2. Your Profile Needs
• Strong descriptions with
keywords.
• To be easy to read and
scan (not overly lengthy
per se)
• A good visual balance
(image, links,
recommendations, etc.)

3. Your Profile Elements
• A good headshot
• A well-crafted headline
• A summary of your experience and
expertise
• List out each of your jobs with brief
description/ accomplishments
• Under each important job, add a related or
interesting link
• Example: www.linkedin.com/in/kimproctor

3. Your Profile Elements
• Ask for job recommendations (if you
could have at least one for each job
that would be a great start)
• Add a header background image (this
is a newer option)

4. How to Maintain
• Post an update at least once a week;
“like” or comment on other’s updates 1-2
times a week
• Change out the links under job (or top
description section) on a regular basis
• Update descriptions with new
accomplishments a few times a year
© 2015 CustomersThatClick www.CustomersThatClick.com @RetainCustomers
Next Steps
• Take your time with step 1. During your
research take good notes.
• Get prepared to update your profile,
write up your description, each job
description and gather the links to use.
• Then go to www.LinkedIn.com, click
“profile” and “edit profile” and you are
on your way!

Next Steps
• Ask your contacts for feedback on your
profile and make edits as needed. (This
is a good opportunity to reconnect with
those in your network.)
• Don’t forget to keep posting each week
and overhaul your profile a few times a
year – schedule it on your calendar now
so you won’t forget.
