•    Use webmail importer to bring your real world professional relationships online and to find your contacts who are already on LinkedIn.•    Depending on whether you’re a browser person or an Outlook person, check out the respective toolbars that will help organize your professional relationship either while you browse or check out your Inbox.

Getting to the top of searches is critical for raising awareness

You can gather incredible notoriety if you make sure your profile is set up in the right way.

One example is of Lewis Howes. If you search for ‘Sports’ Lewis Howes comes top of

the search list. Why? Just take a look at his profile on the next page…

Lewis attributes most of his success to populating his profile with keywords – in this case sports. From being a social nobody, Lewis Howes has emerged as a key thinker and mover in the last year through his active engagement

actions.
