Things you will learn in this episode:

* Your LinkedIn “elevator pitch” is very important and is a combination of three features in your LinkedIn profile: Your Story, Name Pronunciation, and the Headline. Make sure that your branding message is the same, or at least cohesive and unified, in all three so they get to know both you and your message. — Bob Woods

* Let your profile visitors get to know you quickly with Cover Story, the 30-second elevator speech that lives behind your headshot. This is an opportunity to connect with your network in a very personal and human way. When they see this video, they get to know you, faster. — Brynne Tillman
