ATLANTA PERSONAL
BRANDING EXPERT SAYS A STRONG PROFILE ISN'T AN OPTION, IT'S ESSENTIAL.
"All of us need to understand the importance of branding. We are CEOs of our own companies: Me Inc. To be in business today, our most important job is to be head marketer for the brand
called You."
– Tom Peters in Fast Company
LinkedIn is the world's biggest business watering hole — If your personal branding isn't strong, you're losing opportunities … business… connections… and credibility!
Why even have a LinkedIn profile, if the reaction you get is…
❓"Oh, sorry…I fell asleep reading your profile."
❓"I didn't get your capabilities."
❓"I never found your profile."
(So this note doesn't exist!")
This is not FaceBook. This is business.
You can't make a neutral or negative impression, and expect to make the "short list" of candidates for interviews or clients. Strong Personal Branding on LinkedIn is absolutely vital.
✔️ Vital for professional credibility, no matter what work you do

“When I spoke with Joel about being frustrated in my job, he encouraged me to “reinvent” myself and focus on sales in a new way. He said new “personal branding” would significantly change my LinkedIn profile and resume. I resisted for a while, and finally said “let’s go.”
“Two weeks later, based on his work with me, I had an interview with the CEO and CFO of a remarkable new business in my field — they thought my LinkedIn profile was so strong that they didn't even ask for my resume until after the 3rd interview. I got the job, with a significant raise. And I’ve since expanded my career, based on that new direction."

This is the second time I've worked with Joel, and with very strong results, My business has evolved and grown, and Joel has helped me make a strong presentation on LinkedIn. Joel is not one of those "produce just anything" people... he makes sure things are done well, and has a variety of skills, including consulting with smart recommendations, creative design, writing, and coaching. I strongly recommend Joel.

ARE YOU CRUSHING IT WITH A STRONG FIRST IMPRESSION ?
Atlanta Personal Branding Consultant gives some perspective on the value of LinkedIn to your professional life...
If 94% of businesspeople and recruiters go to LinkedIn to find you, or to find out more about you…
Will you grab their interest?
Or will they just pass you by?
WHAT'S GOING ON OUT THERE, ARE YOU IN THE GAME?
The place to be found is LinkedIn — Joel Alpert calls it "the world's biggest watering hole for business," with 900 million users. It is the source more businesspeople go to than any other, by far.
You must be found in LinkedIn searches… or else
businesspeople, clients, recruiters, and anyone else won't know you exist. Just having a LinkedIn profile doesn't mean you will be found.
Once found, you want to differentiate yourself with content and presentation. Your LinkedIn profile must present you clearly... personally... and express an array of attributes, skills, And it needs to flag your target market. In the online digital ocean.
This guidance applies to professionals in all fields… entry-level recruits,… and seasoned executives. Many executives are too busy to create a powerful profile, or assume it's not needed. Nah… who are you kidding? Without a detailed online presence, you are either overlooked or arouse the suspicion of recruiters and hiring decision makers. If you really are pretty good at what you do… do you you really think it's best to hide it?
Why? In the online world, you are your digital presence..
Opportunities come and go. You can let this sit on the back burner.… but do you really want to do that?
Decide: is it time you level up?
According to DMR Stats Gadgets, 94% of recruiters use LinkedIn to vet job and business candidates. Another survey by recruiting software company Jobvite, shows 87% of recruiters use LinkedIn as a key part of their recruiting efforts.
"I'm an internet marketing consultant — I've been on LinkedIn, for years, knew it was an important thing but simply didn't know how to use it.
Joel showed me things that I never thought about on my profile, how to set it up, how to connect to other people…Joel is a great communicator and marketer.
"I had about 300 LinkedIn connections and really did not understand how to use LinkedIn as a business tool. Today, at 3:28 pm, I got my 1,000th Connection!!
"I can't sufficiently tell you how great this was!
Thank you, Joel. You rock, too!!"
