If your profile wasn’t looking good a couple of years ago\, there’s no better time than the present. And if you’re still posting content in the same way\, you need to reconsider how you’re doing it. \nKey Takeaways\n\nOpportunities to showcase your business\nChanges to make to your posting activities for greater visibility – what LI is currently promoting\nNEW features to consider taking advantage of\n\nSpeaker Bio\nSandra Clark is a trainer and coach specializing in providing LinkedIn education for individuals to create and manage a LinkedIn presence that supports their professional goals or for businesses to maximize their visibility with the collaboration of their employees.
