Many LinkedIn profiles read like an executive looking for their next job. The profile speaks to past achievements, companies and roles. In many instances, the profile photo is many years old, shows other people, or is blurry. This is hardly a profile that inspires trust or speaks to any vision you may have for the future. With this in mind, we recommend giving your LinkedIn profile a makeover.

And you can use ProPresence for free to get started.

Follow the video below and you’ll have a new profile ready to upload in under 10 minutes.

What you will need to get started

To ensure that ProPresence generates an authentic profile for you, we will need to learn a little about you. To help with this, we need two things:

  • A PDF of your LinkedIn profile
  • A sample of your writing.

Downloading your LinkedIn profile PDF

To download your LinkedIn profile as a PDF:

  • Open your LinkedIn profile page
  • Click the More button
  • Click the Save as PDF link

Create a writing sample to generate a tone of voice

To ensure that ProPresence sounds like you, we need to analyze your writing. To make this easy, collect some of your writings and copy and paste them into a single document. You can use:

  • Blog posts
  • Articles
  • Whitepapers
  • Press releases
  • Anything that you have written.

Please try to make sure that these samples are indicative of your style.

Generate your free professional profile

Create your account on ProPresence and upload each of these documents. We will then analyze the information and email you with a new career narrative. This takes about five minutes. When it is ready, you can edit your profile on LinkedIn and add your new profile into the About section.

Be sure to read the profile carefully and edit it accurately reflect your career and achievements.
