People create business value using LinkedIn every day I do firsthand myself, and a lot of my clients do. And I just recently did a campaign where I collected 11 success stories about people, different people, different industry different roles, how they created success using LinkedIn. It's because they use it not because they have it. Okay, so my LinkedIn profile today I just tested this is February 2 2020. I did 700 profile views every day every month. Okay, that's a low number for me, but it's a good number for me.

That's 21 2200 profile views every 90 days. I get an email or a LinkedIn message weekly. I got a phone call last night on Friday night from a guy wants to talk to me on a Saturday about a potential opportunity. And I've never talked to this guy before. But I promise you, he found me on LinkedIn. It can happen for you as well.

I am asked for and get worthwhile prospecting introductions daily. on a regular basis, I will send someone an email someone that I have some level relationship with, I will ask them introduce me to someone else and they do it. And you can do this too. And this is critical. I do not have to validate myself with references or letters or recommendations anymore. my LinkedIn profile and my content and my LinkedIn recommendations, and my engagement validates me it's really really powerful.

When you think about it in this way, too often people think I need all of these testimonials and I get it. I like testimonials as well, but testimonials by themselves does not create value. What does create value is a well scripted presentation of who you are and what you do focus to your most important viewer and content engagement relevant to them. I'm Teddy Burris, my LinkedIn strategist and trainer. If I can help you in any way, don't hesitate to say hi, and I hope you take time look at the other courses that I have out here that can help you use LinkedIn as a business tool.
