LinkedIn’s Banner – Why is it important to have one?

Your LinkedIn Banner is the first opportunity to promote you, your products and services, and your company!

Your LinkedIn Banner = Prime Real Estate!!!

The most important features you need to include on your banner are:

• 𝘾𝙤𝙧𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙇𝙤𝙜𝙤
• 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙉𝙖𝙢𝙚
• 𝙒𝙚𝙗𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙚
• 𝙚𝙈𝙖𝙞𝙡 𝘼𝙙𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨 (only if you don’t have a website)
• 𝙋𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙉𝙪𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙧
• 𝙏𝙖𝙜𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚

Keep the banner clean, use fonts that are large enough to be readable on mobile devices, and update periodically.

The importance of having a functional Banner on your LinkedIn profile will bring several benefits for your Brand:

1. Communicates your BRAND!
2. Communicates Professionalism!
3. Communicates who you serve, what products and services you bring to the marketplace, and why you have “the solution” for prospects problems, pains, and issues.
4. Communicates your EDGE Over Your Competition!

You can also use your Banner to advertise upcoming events or activities, your new book or honor/awards.

Helping you Get THE EDGE Over Your Competition!

2024 President’s Award – National Speakers Association, North Texas Chapter

I was so honored last week to receive the National Speakers Association, North Texas Chapter 2024 President’s Award for my work with the Membership Connector’s Program.

Give First—Look for ways to help others! It’s “Your EDGE” Over your Competition!!!

Always, Always, Always find ways to help others.  Why? Because it’s like Zig Ziglar said:

 “You will get all you want in life, if you help enough other people get what they want.”

As an Avid Networker and Connector of People, I’m inclined to find time to do some form of networking.

• Be proactive to ask prospects and clients how you can help them grow their businesses today.
• Share your own needs by telling prospects and clients what you are looking for, for example, maybe it’s a warm referral to one of their connections.
• Ask about their closest competitor.  You don’t have to name them by name, just use the opportunity to find out about who else in their sphere of competition might be a great prospect for your products and services.

After all, if you don’t ask, then you have no opportunity to receive.

When you offer to help others, it your chance to shine in your client’s eyes as a trusted advisor and resource.
