Since its launch in 2003, LinkedIn® has solidified its position as the essential social media platform for attorneys and businesspeople across the world. Yet, even as LinkedIn® has become a critical business development tool for many, some lawyers are still skeptical as to its value or remain uncertain about how to best use LinkedIn® to their advantage. Lawyers are able to turn LinkedIn® into a dynamic and personalized marketing database and a business development tool for connecting to and staying in touch with referral partners, clients, and colleagues. This video will explain why attorneys should not just be on LinkedIn®, but how they can combine a compelling presence on the platform with proven strategies and best practices for using it in a thoughtful, efficient, and successful manner.
