Some people and companies have not come to the understanding that they can use a LinkedIn profile to generate leads. LinkedIn isn’t just a social platform. It is a tool.

With over 575 million profiles on the platform, you want to be sure you stand out – in the right ways. This can be done by following a few simple rules. Be clear and concise. Make others aware of what you can do for them. What value props can you provide? Don’t use 7 words when 3 will do. State your abilities succinctly and humbly and don’t babble on and on. Short and sweet as they say. You want people to be able to glance at your profile, quickly comprehend who you are, who you work for, and what you can do. Be professional. This is the first impression you make, so don’t be too casual about it. Take a look at the graphic below to get your LinkedIn profile to generate leads and boost your sales and network numbers.
