LinkedIn Coaching & Training
The mechanics of using LinkedIn are pretty simple: sign up, fill out your profile, invite your business associates, search for people, request/forward/receive introduction requests, etc. But turning that into effective business strategy can be a challenge, especially when you hear so many mixed messages from various LinkedIn users, customer evangelists and LinkedIn themselves.
I offer an extensive amount of free information on this site to help you learn to use LinkedIn more effectively. But if you’re in a hurry to accomplish a specific objective, that may not be enough. If you need to get something accomplished quickly and want to bypass the learning curve, I can help.
I offer LinkedIn-related services in the following areas:
LinkedIn Profile Makeovers - Your profile is the rock upon which all of your LinkedIn activity is built. If it’s not solid, all the rest of your efforts are likely to be wasted. If you’d like a free makeover, you can sign up for an Extreme LinkedIn Profile Makeover. Those are done publicly, though, and there’s currently a 3-4 month waiting list. If you can’t wait that long, or if you don’t want to do the whole thing under public scrutiny, for just $150, you can get it done this week. This includes a preliminary e-mail discussion about your objectives, my review and recommendations (see examples) and an e-mail follow-up to answer any questions you may have.
LinkedIn Strategy Coaching - Trying to accomplish something in LinkedIn but just not quite sure how to go about it? Let’s talk about it. I can help you align your LinkedIn activities with your business objectives using the Seven Keys to a Powerful Network framework from my book, The Virtual Handshake, and help you map out daily, weekly and monthly activities to achieve your goals. $250 includes a one-hour call, a preparatory questionnaire, and e-mail follow-up.
30 Days to LinkedIn Success - Want more than just a one-time boost? Want a helping hand guiding you through the process of expanding your network, building your reputation and making effective introduction requests? This 30-day program includes two coaching calls, the profile makeover, e-mail coaching and reviews of your LinkedIn correspondence (intro requests, invitations, recommendations, etc.). All this for just a little more than the cost of two calls and a profile review - $700.
LinkedIn Training - I co-developed and delivered training classes in partnership with LinkedIn and have presented numerous well-received web seminars, teleclasses and live presentations. I can provide training classes to your organization in the following areas:
- Introduction to LinkedIn
- LinkedIn for Recruiters
- LinkedIn for Sales
- LinkedIn for Professional Services
- LinkedIn for Business Development
- LinkedIn for Entrepreneurs
- Custom LinkedIn Training
Rates vary depending on the medium (in-person, webinar or teleclass), length of presentation, customization, follow-up coaching, etc. Contact me for more information.
