Great LinkedIn Headshots

Step one in creating an attention-grabbing LinkedIn is to add a great profile picture. Your profile picture is going to help people to visualise you, it's going to make you more familiar to them. This is important because LinkedIn is all about building connections.

According to statistics; adding a profile picture can actually result in up to 14 times more views of your profile. But wait! Before you reach for your phone to take a selfie, you need to know that the quality of your LinkedIn headshot is more important than you might realise.

You see, when someone reviews your LinkedIn profile they will automatically make assumptions about you based on your photo - this is simply human nature. Not only that, if your LinkedIn headshot gives the wrong impression, they may not click on your profile at all and this defeats the object of setting up a LinkedIn profile in the first place.

From our experience, we’ve noticed that there are certain types of LinkedIn images that make a poor impression. In this video we’ve gathered together the most common profile picture mistakes so that you can make sure you don’t fall into the same traps, we’ll also talk you through what a great LinkedIn headshot looks like and how you can achieve it.
