Great post Sally.. Really resonates with what I am all about on LinkedIn..
2 more tips that I would add to this though are:
1. Join groups that are relevant to your industry i.e. if you’re an accountant join the CA or CPA groups..

2. Find a mentor and network strategically i.e. figure out how to connect the dots and how to pitch to why someone would want to be connected..
I know these are more advanced but thanks for the posts on LinkedIn, interesting to read others views :)

FrugalRules I really like their ‘People You Might Know’ program. I’ve found many people through it and it’s fun to mindlessly scroll through it every now and then to see who might pop up.

Holly at ClubThrifty I feel like a hypocrite having this post on my site – I haven’t updated my LinkedIn profile for a LONG time! Definitely overdue.

I really like the ability they give to search for people based off of past associations you’ve had – like college or past jobs. I’ve been able to find a few connections that way and connect with people I needed/wanted to.

Thanks for your tips, when I completed my profile on LinkedIn I observed that my request of network connection increases. My new connection introduces me some new skills, LinkedIn is very important especially that you’re looking for a new job.
