LinkedIn is hands down THE premiere social networking site for professionals. It centers around a LinkedIn Profile that YOU create. So, how good is YOUR LinkedIn Profile?
Does your Profile say all it can say about you? Does it highlight your accomplishments and show those searching you that you continue to progress and take on new business challenges?
Now, Mike O'Neil and Lori Ruff of Integrated Alliances are searching the world for the 5 Greatest LinkedIn Profiles. The top 5 winners get spotlighted in Mike O'Neil's new book entitled Rock the World with Your Online Presence, which will be available in late November.
The criteria are two-fold. First is the number of votes and second is the completeness and style as best described in the IA LinkedIn Profiles Guide Sheet
1) Follow @MikeOneilDenver and @LoriRuff on Twitter.
2) FIRST TIME ONLY - LOGIN USING YOUR TWITTER ID. A nominate button will appear.
3) Nominate the best LinkedIn Profile by clicking the "Nominate the Best" button. Put in your LinkedIn Profile URL in the form of http://www.linkedin.com/in/myprofileID.
4) Get ALL of your friends and followers to participate by sharing this contest with them and hopefully voting for YOU.
Let everyone know why your LinkedIn Profile or that of the the person you wish to nominate is worthy for inclusion in the forthcoming "Rock the World" book.
Judges (above) are NOT ELIGIBLE.
