Today we are going to improve your LinkedIn Headline. To do that we're going to use keywords or key phrases.

LinkedIn's default headline is "Current Title and Current Employer". Don't settle for that. It's simply too generic and will make it difficult for people to find you.

Also, it will not interest the person searching for your skills or services. People want to know what you can do for them. My guess is your skills and talents are far more than just "Designer at ABC Company". We just need to get everyone else know :)

So start thinking creatively. What can you do for others? Here are a few before and after examples I came across recently. Hope they give you some ideas!

• LinkedIn Profile Headline Before: President of Office Computer Concepts, LLC – BORING!
   
• LinkedIn Profile Headline After: Building the Tools that Make Your Business Life Easier! – INTRIGUING!
   
• LinkedIn Profile Headline Before: Ronald Dullen, CPA, MBA Consultant to Industry, Non-Profits and the Wealthy, Interim CEO & CFO – SNORE!
   
• LinkedIn Profile Headline After: Solving urgent leadership problems… when your CEO steps down, Ron Dullen steps up – WOW!
   
• LinkedIn Profile Headline Before: Certified Health Coach - SNORE!
   
• LinkedIn Profile Headline After: Holistic Health Coach / Foodie / World Traveler / Recovering Corporate Executive / Engaging Speaker / Pilates Addict – WOWSERS Indeed!

Here's to making you look good!
