As someone who has only joined Linkedin recently I found this course incredibly enlightening, and assisted me in setting up my profile! I enjoyed the examples used throughout the course, and found it incredibly user-friendly for a Linkedin novice like myself.

I’ve had a fair amount of success with attracting clients on LinkedIn already, so I thought I’d breeze through this course and potentially get one or two new pieces of information from it. I was very wrong. I kept a list of the changes I made after going through the course, and there were 8 changes in total, and that was before Hass personally reviewed my LinkedIn and suggested a further 7 (I know - harsh) And yes, that’s part of the course. You get your LinkedIn personally reviewed by somebody who’s already killing it on LinkedIn. If you’re just getting started on LinkedIn - save yourself the months of making random tweaks and just go ahead and get everything done in a day. If you think you’re already killing it, I’m sure this course will show you what you can be doing better!
