3 Steely Truths about LinkedIn Profile Makeovers for Sales

Upgrading the LinkedIn Profiles for your sales team:

1. Improves your company’s SEO strength on LinkedIn. Think of every LinkedIn Profile as its own website hosted on LinkedIn. If there are many optimized profiles linked to your company’s website with relevant content it improves the possibility of driving more traffic to your website because more people who search on LinkedIn can find your people’s profiles. Well optimized LinkedIn profiles -and LinkedIn headlines!- rank well on the LinkedIn platform.
2. Increases the value of your sales team’s LinkedIn Profiles. A LinkedIn Profile Makeover transforms a profile that attracts recruiters and headhunters into a resource for your prospects.
3. Boosts morale and your salespeople’s activity level on the platform. With the “keys to a shiny new car,” as Kurt refers to an upgraded LinkedIn Profile, your team will be inspired to make new connections and be more active on LinkedIn.
