Build Your Online Brand: Using LinkedIn as a Professional Resource 

  View my LinkedIn profile  

Are you leveraging LinkedIn to enhance your online identity? A LinkedIn profile is the equivalent of a digital “first impression,” an authoritative resource on your professional brand—often the first result that shows up when people Google you. It’s the one thing you can control online. 

Theresa Merrill, LinkedIn consultant and speaker, helps professionals understand, leverage and maximize LinkedIn to achieve their business goals. 

In addition to the live program, Theresa invites everyone to view her profile on LinkedIn, see how she uses this valuable tool, and send her an invitation to connect.

Through her own experience, she discovered LinkedIn is not just for job seekers. LinkedIn is a powerful tool that enables you to: build your brand in order to be found, engage and influence your audience, stay informed of industry and individual changes to generate leads and uncover valuable opportunities. Theresa has coached individuals and companies to define their brand and align their message on LinkedIn.

Theresa draws on a diverse background in sales and marketing having over 20 years of experience in New York, Boston and Atlanta working for major media outlets: Katz, CBS, Tribune and Cablevision. 


 

Physical address of the Student Center is 44 Courtland Street, Atlanta, GA 30302.  The Center is located between Piedmont Avenue and Courtland Street, on Gilmer Street.  We are locate one block from Grady Hospital.  Here is a link for driving directions to the Student Center: http://www.gsu.edu/studentcenter/driving_directions.html

Parking information:  I suggest parking in “M” deck, located across the street from the Student Center.  Here is a link regarding “M” deck:  http://www.gsu.edu/parking/60340.html    We also suggest visitors consider MARTA, since the GA State station (on the east line) is only 1 block from the Student Center.
