EDITOR’S NOTE: Resort Trades magazine proudly introduces our new series, “The LinkedIn Minute“ – quick tips on using LinkedIn to teach how to deliver qualified leads and important connections to help you network personally and to promote your business.
Today’s LinkedIn Minute is one that is only available on the mobile version of LinkedIn. And it’s called “Reach Out To…” The first step to activating this feature is to download the LinkedIn mobile app onto your smartphone. Once downloaded and open, you can find the section by clicking on the mini-me from the homepage (the tiny circle with your photo in it at the top left of your mobile LinkedIn app). From there, you will be given the option to view your profile. Once you are on your profile page in the app, scroll down until you see the section Reach out to…
Mine says “Reach out to Sheryl for…” Once there, you can click on the pencil and select if you would like to be reached out to about investing, advising, hiring, getting coffee, or joining a board. So I’ve checked paid consulting, mentoring, and contract to freelance. This is a great way for you to let people know that you are available to hire or to participate in any of the other options. You can only add this on the mobile app however, once added, it will appear on the desktop version of LinkedIn as well.
