Why Is Linkedin So Valuable for Agents?
IF YOU HAVE A LINKEDIN PROFILE, I want you to do the following (right now). Click the link immediately below. It will open a new webpage for Google. Type in your name and click “Google Search.”
IF you have a common name add “insurance” or “Medicare” after your name.
Click This Link Now. Then return to this webpage.
Chances are that your Linkedin profile appeared as Google’s #1 result or definitely towards the top of the ‘organic’ results.
And, that’s why having a good LinkedIn profile is so important. Because when consumers go online to check you out … the first listing they’ll most often see is your Linkedin profile.
