Things you will learn in this episode:

* Displaying recommendations in your LinkedIn profile is part of what gives your prospects “social proof” that you are an expert in your field and that your company provides quality products, services, etc. Recommendations are an excellent way to leverage your great reputation and brand on LinkedIn. — Bob Woods

* LinkedIn recommendations from your clients provide social proof that you deliver what you promise. Bonus: When you recommend your clients, you are highlighted on their profile, giving you exposure to their network. — Brynne Tillman
