How to Write a KILLER LinkedIn Profile Raffle Drawing!

rak-week-174x300Did you know that last week (February 9-15, 2015) was International Random Acts of Kindness Week? Neither did I, until a woman named Ann Terry Gilman from Germany purchased my LinkedIn e-book—3 times! I wrote to Terry to find out whether she intended to purchase the book in triplicate, and she responded that no she did not, but would I please give away the two extra books to an organization in need—in honor of RAK week!

Terry took the message of RAK to heart and I am happy to announce that The Essay Expert will be holding a drawing on March 1 for an organization to receive a free lifetime subscription to the PDF version of How to Write a KILLER LinkedIn Profile.

Random Acts of Kindness Life

Of course now that I know last week was RAK week, I’m thinking about whether I do enough RAKs in my life. Last week, one day I brought a smoothie to a friend who is a nurse and would miss dinner that day due to working long hours. I tried a new salmon recipe. I drove to Chicago to see people in my class person instead of attending, as I usually do, on the phone. I made 50 phone calls for people to assist on the Transform Training while the other people in my group were making 15-20 calls each. I brought my teddy bear to yoga class and talked to people I would not normally have talked to.

I did all these things without knowing it was RAK week! Did you perform random acts of kindness last week too? Here are some ideas:

    I purchased your eBook (.pdf) yesterday following an extensive research exercise based upon Melinda’s advice and I am working my way through your great guidance to update my LinkedIn profile prior to sending out job applications…
    (I’ve temporarily turned off access until I make significant (it is a re-write job) changes to that profile.

    Thank you for some great advice.
    I’ve now established profile access as:
    linkedin.com/in/davidjwalker01
    and a separate complementary job-seeking email address:
    davidjwalker01@bigpond.com

    Thanks and great advising…
