Duration: 7:45 minutes

Go to the Improve Your LinkedIn Profile now.

Update: I turned a critical eye on my own LinkedIn profile. Having now implemented a number of the suggestions presented via the video, I offer you two recommendations.

1. Don't overwhelm your target audience with data. Information overload may result in visitors who jump off your page. Be selective. And be concise. Which leads to the second recommendation.
2. Do rearrange the order in which Profile Sections are presented. How to Do This: While in "Edit My Profile" view, mouse over the +profile section titles along the right-hand side of the page and follow the prompt.

Crosby out.
