Learn How to Tell Your Story on LinkedIn at Mark Twain Library on May 10

Author and LinkedIn Trainer Marc W. Halpert to offer free program

LinkedIn Trainer and author of LinkedIn Marketing Techniques for Law and Professional Practices, Marc W. Halpert will offer a free training session on Thursday, May 10 at 7:30 pm at the Mark Twain Library. The program, co-sponsored by the Small Business Circle, will cover how to build a LinkedIn profile to better brand yourself and your business.

Aimed at all sectors, industries, ages, populations and experience levels on LinkedIn, this session will consider all sections of the LinkedIn personal profile and briefly touch on the company profile page.

“We each have a story to tell that got us to where we are today,” says Halpert. “Our brand must be attractive before we will be considered as colleagues, consultants, vendors, professional advisors—whatever your expertise.” He teaches how to differentiate oneself from the rest of the competition on LinkedIn. “Tell your story. That’s your brand.”

Using examples of clients he has helped in his practice, Halpert will illustrate how you can make yourself stand out while remaining professional.

A question-and-answer period will conclude the session. Attendees should bring a paper printout of their profiles to jot notes. Halpert’s book, LinkedIn Marketing Techniques for Law and Professional Practices, will be available for purchase after the session.

Please register online, at the Library or call 203-938-2545 for information.
