It was an honor to help my LinkedIn private coaching client Eduard Alberts increase his LinkedIn Profile Views by double digits!
Eduard found me via LinkedIn Search and reached out because he knew he could be getting better LinkedIn results and wanted expert help to make the most of his time.
He had a profile and presence already, but they were thin and he felt they weren’t as powerful as they could be.
Also, there were LinkedIn features like articles, posts and messaging that he wasn’t using as effectively as he could…especially to drive profile views, while also positioning himself as an expert and thought leader in his field.
So how did we increase Eduard’s profile views?
We improved his profile, messaging, articles and posts using my secret LinkedIn Jedi Master hacks, templates and formulas to make his branding and presence on LinkedIn more effective to attract more profile views.
But maybe you’re wondering…
WHY are LinkedIn Profile Views important?
Think about it…when someone views your profile, what happens?
It’s where the relationship with your viewer starts.
Because they’ve been compelled to click through from somewhere on LinkedIn, Google, or elsewhere online, to your profile.
They’re curious and want to find out more about you and how you can solve their problem, take care of their key issue, so they can move forward to the next thing.
What Does Increasing Your LinkedIn Profile Views Do For You and Your Business?
Simply put, the more LinkedIn Profile Views you get, the more conversations you’ll have and the more business you’ll get…when you are strategic and deliberate in your conversations.
Think of them as a leading sales indicator or metric.
Because your LinkedIn Profile is where your future Ideal Clients first get to know, like and trust you.
It’s where the sales process gets rolling…after you’ve attracted them via LinkedIn Search, Google Search, your LinkedIn articles that they found on LinkedIn or Google, LinkedIn posts they saw in their feed as your connection, your post that went viral, etc.
Your profile is where your Ideal Clients see that you understand what they need and you show them from the 30,000-foot level how you can help them.
This is why it’s imperative that your LinkedIn Profile position you as an expert and thought leader in your field and make it easy for your Ideal Client to take the next step with you. (Search my blog in the top right for more articles on this.)
Obviously, my work with private coaching clients goes much deeper and I can give more specific recommendations.
This will get you started…
Here’s a quick overview of how you can attract more profile views:
- Publish LinkedIn articles. LinkedIn Jedi Master Hack: they’re searchable on ALL of LinkedIn and Google. This means their reach is enormous! I still get leads from articles I published years ago. Use your keywords and share them using hashtags like #LinkedIn, #Leadership, etc. Use your Ideal Clients to create your content and reverse engineer your articles to give them what they need and solve their problems. Article reside permanently on your profile.
- Publish LinkedIn posts. LinkedIn Jedi Master Hack: Use 3 hashtags and 5 @mentions/tags for maximum LinkedIn algorithm love right now.
- Engage with your contacts with messaging and notifications. LinkedIn Jedi Master Hack: have a system and templates to make it easier.
- Use your profile to position yourself as an expert, thought leader and keep yourself top of mind with your contacts. This means your headline, About section and positions. LinkedIn Jedi Master Hack: Again, use your keywords as much as possible, and a call-to-action to take the next step with you where you can. See my LinkedIn profile for a model on this.
And, as I mentioned above, when you have a system to do all this, it’s very easy and even fun because you’re seeing results immediately.
So if you feel invisible on LinkedIn, and your LinkedIn Profile isn’t being viewed…it doesn’t have to be that way. What I’ve shared above will get you started. And if you want personalized recommendations and strategies, here’s how to get them…
