LinkedIn is an awesome way to connect with people who can help you grow your business.

But how do you get started? Here are 5 tips:

1. Find people in your industry who are already connected to other people that can help you grow your business.

2. Connect with them first, and then request to connect with the people they know who can help you grow your business.

3. Follow them and their networks on LinkedIn, so that you can continue to engage with them and build relationships over time.

4. Create a personal profile that highlights what makes YOU unique—not just what makes your company unique! People want to connect with REAL people, not just logos and mission statements!

5. Share content that’s relevant to your industry and audience—don’t just post links to articles or blog posts (unless they contain valuable insights into the industry).
