Networking helps small businesses grow and helps corporations build culture. Donna Serdula, Author of LinkedIn Profile Optimization for Dummies, teaches the secrets of how to create a presence and network on LinkedIn. Donna Serdula pioneered the concept of LinkedIn profile optimization, realizing early on that the LinkedIn profile was so much more than just an online resume. The LinkedIn profile is an amazing opportunity for branding and connecting.
Donna spent the first 10 years of her career in sales, operations, and training. She joined LinkedIn’s social network in 2005 where she promptly copied and pasted her resume and wondered what all the fuss was about. A job change in 2006 led her back to LinkedIn as she looked for tools to help her build a sales territory. It was during this time she had her LinkedIn epiphany and forged her LinkedIn 4 point methodology. By integrating LinkedIn into her sales process, she found amazing success.
In 2009, she walked away from her successful sales career and founded Vision Board Media and LinkedIn-Makeover.com. Her mission: To help people realize their Internet identity and shape one that makes an impact and leads to opportunity.
From that day on, Donna Serdula became the chief influencer, advocating and evangelizing the importance of taking control of your Internet identity. By presenting yourself in a way that inspires and builds confidence in your abilities, products, and services, you are shaping your future.
Donna's presentations are highly engaging and interactive whether in person and online.
