Greetings!

We're already in the second half of 2023, and December 31st will be here before you know it. If you've been thinking about looking for a new job, it's time to get going with that plan.

While most people think about getting their resume recruiter ready, having a compelling LinkedIn profile is every bit as important. As it may be the first time people meet you.

LinkedIn is where people go if someone refers you for a job or a service you provide. Not to mention the thousands of recruiters on there every day looking for candidates to fill open positions.

If you've been thinking about upgrading your LinkedIn profile, I have a Free LinkedIn Profile guide for you. Details are at the bottom of this email.

If we have worked together, I'll be inviting you to a Free LinkedIn session to go over a few features that can help you with your job search. So watch for the invitation.
