True confession time.
The worst job I have had, that I have not put on my LinkedIn profile is selling welding equipment over the phone.
No BIG surprises here.…. but guess what????

Like how I included an amazing alliteration in the title here?
Stop it KB.
Get to the point.
OK so I have just made a video to help you get over your photo phobia on LinkedIn and put something up that’s aligned to your professional brand.
The right photo on your LinkedIn profile can really lift how you feel about yourself, and how others perceive you.

So you know how a picture paints 1000 words?
Of course you do. I can see your eyes roll now.
But do you know how this idea can help you with getting your next great job?
Ha Ha.
Gotcha there!
Here’s the BIG thing.

And BA DA BING BA DA BOOM.
That new job may happen faster than you think.
Without you slaving over a hot mess of words.
