Using LinkedIn Endorsements to build your profile

LinkedIn is the largest professional social network online today with an astounding 135 million users and a targeted audience of business professionals.

Endorsements create opportunities to forge stronger bonds with your connections, and add credibility to their profiles. Getting an endorsement from a trusted contact enhances your profile as well.

Endorsements are quick and painless to complete, and add credibility to your profile. Give endorsements, and you will most likely receive them in return. As your skills gain prominence, others begin to look into who you are and investigate your skills, as well. This ultimately leads to a growth in awareness and the overall generation of interest in your brand. The more endorsements you have, the more likely others are going to check you out for themselves, generating word of mouth marketing.
