About this event

When we think about all the platforms we can use to find work, LinkedIn probably doesn’t rise to the top of the list… yet.

In this one hour long panel, Jenni and Wudan will be joined in conversation with freelance experts who believe LinkedIn can make a huge difference in your freelance business. Tim Herrera and Kelly McSweeney will share their tips and tricks for how to make your LinkedIn profile stand out to clients who need freelance help. Ultimately, they want to change your mind about the utility of the platform!

Walk away from this panel with:

Ideas for how to update your LinkedIn profile

An understanding of why LinkedIn is useful for freelance writers

Information about certain LinkedIn features (like “OpenForWork”) and how to use them

Pro tips that will make your profile stand out from the crowd
