LinkedIn Power Strategies Workshop Shows How to Go From the Sidelines to Superstar

Feb. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- “Ever wished you could get noticed by recruiters, your boss or your customers, but didn’t think you had the personal brand it takes to for you to stand out as the perfect person for the job - or the sale?” asks Barbara Rozgonyi, creator of the new LinkedIn Power Strategies training course and publisher of http://wiredprworks.com.

Based on Rozgonyi's thousands of interactions, including presentations for Office Depot’s Web Café, Ragan Communications and the International Social Media Association, the new LinkedIn Power Strategies class teaches how to engage the top strategies leaders use to attract targeted attention, develop business prospects, advance their career and become more visible leaders on LinkedIn.

A recognized social media marketing speaker and PR thought leader, Rozgonyi teaches steps job seekers, professionals and entrepreneurs the steps they need to take to go from the sidelines to becoming a superstar.

“It’s easier than you think to go from the sidelines to being a superstar on LinkedIn,” says Rozgonyi. “My mission is to show people and companies how to leverage LinkedIn profiles into dynamic business connections using the WIRED system I developed.”

Most people know that Linkedin provides a place for professional credentials, thought leadership and community platforms—all for free, all in one consolidated center. Creating a LinkedIn profile is more than just filling in the blanks, though. With over 90 million LinkedIn profiles to search through, having a profile that stands out and represents someone as a thought leader is a must - especially for job seekers, coaches, business owners, entrepreneurs, speakers and consultants.

Linked Power Strategies by Barbara Rozgonyi teaches how to:

   * raise visibility and influence
   * develop a social media strategy that supports personal and business goals
   * maximize efforts and minimize social networking time
   * find connections that form bridges to goals
   * stand out as a leader with the talent companies are looking for

Rozgonyi recommends the class for coaches, speakers, consultants, job seekers, entrepreneurs and anyone who wants to position themselves or their business as a go-to authority. Offered as an on-demand course after the February 15 debut, Rozgonyi is open to creating custom courses for industries, associations and organizations. She especially enjoys working with sales teams to help them generate leads and build long-term relationships.
