Editing your summary

Adding content that will consistently appear on your profile

Begin by clicking “Edit Profile” under your title

Click the small box with a plus in your summary. This section provides a place for content that will be

relevant for an extended period of time and will appear every time someone views your profile.

Editing your summary, continued

Add a link or upload a file, depending on the asset you wish to share. Fill in the required fields, such as Title

and Description. Once completed, click “Done Editing” under your title to complete the editing process.

Share an update

If you do not want the promoted assets on your individual profile, utilize the update function that LinkedIn offers.

“Share an update” allows you to post an update or status. Here you can share an interesting link or file with your network. This asset will appear on their homepage and will eventually filter down, much like a Facebook status.
